We came back on them twice this year. We had them in a hole, but we knew they'd come back. We'd make a run, then they'd make a run. We just couldn't make that final push.
We had a couple of turnovers and some missed shots. When we get off to a bad start, we don't do very well.
We talked about them all week. We knew we couldn't give them any room and we couldn't be late.
We struggled from the perimeter, we struggled inside we struggled on the boards. We struggled every place tonight.
If I can generate enough income, I'd like to get a castle, a historic castle that I can restore.
I was getting a lot of hassles from the public. Everybody recognized me.
I grew up in a rural area, I was from kind of a poor family and my parents weren't showbiz people. But going back was strange, and perhaps stranger for the other students.
I have horses, I drive a truck, and I wear cowboy boots. First I'm a Texan.
I think it's great when girls are artistic.
Many times you walk into a room and people have already made up their minds. But it's always good to have something great associated with you.
The idea of a film staying in theaters for a year is something of a fantasy today.
I don't know if I was so much of an outsider until after I started doing films. That put me on the outside. I grew up in Texas, and I wasn't the child of industry parents, and I didn't have a lot of friends in the industry or anything like that.
I would inevitably get the girls who were interested in me because I was the guy from E.T. It was kind of tough. I can't deny ever capitalizing upon it but on the whole in my teens I was pretty virtuous.
We shot really well. Usually when we make the shots on the perimeter, that brings them out and we can go inside.
