contract exists porch shop sure union worry
It's a year-by-year thing with me, that's all I can tell you. ... The Pac-10 contract exists through 2011, but I'm pretty sure by 2011, I will have become the shop steward of the International Porch Sitters Union and I won't worry about it.

answer came game goes question
The question came up the other day: Has there ever been another game that had more on it or more hype? The answer is no. ... I think this one goes down as an all-time all-timer.

good gym home job joke keeping rip team year
We did things day by day. The joke was that we don't have a home gym so we're going to take yours. We had a good team that year because Rip did a good job of keeping us together.
basketball home people
