I am not happy with the work that we put in. We made a lot of mistakes on offense, something that we can't have. We have a lot of work ahead of us.

I played with Sam Lay, Jimmy Reed, Big Walter Horton, Big Moose Walker, and all those guys.

Michael Coleman, now that was a boy that taught me some stuff too.
colleges
All the colleges I played, most of the colleges, they were white.
handful hear jimmy knew liked losing people saying step
I always hear it. I just liked the way it set up. They said Jimmy is losing a step that he can't do it anymore. It's been the story of my career. It's always been people saying I couldn't do it. I knew I could do it. You knew I could do it. There's always a handful of people.
flew reached upset wins
It was like this in 1996 (when the wild-card Jags reached the AFC Championship after two upset wins on the road). We just kind of flew under the radar, and we didn't get a lot of respect. We like it like that.

I just came from Aspen, Colorado and they had fifteen kids I played for and they all played horns.

And then when I found my sound, it took me two and a half weeks to find my sound and when I did I pulled out all the stops, all the stops I could find.

We had our chances. We just would get a run and then make mental mistakes. But (Clinton's) a well-coached basketball team with some good players.

We ran the same offensive and defensive plays in the first six minutes as the rest of the game. We just started to play South Lenoir basketball. Tonight was just a good team effort. We showed a lot of heart tonight.

We are a good basketball team. Don't let anyone fool you, we can be as good as we want to be. Tonight we ran up against another good basketball team.
beat flying last mention position says talked teams tv
We're in a position where we're flying under the radar. We're not being talked about on TV shows. When they mention teams in the playoffs, it's like the Jaguars are the last one. That's fine. I like it that way. When we beat New England, that says it all.
means regime settled
We're more settled. A new regime means changes, and things have settled down.
