complaints complaints-and-complaining happy living
I'm happy writing full-time and I've been making a living off it so far. I haven't had any complaints with it at all. I'm happy.
enjoying guys happy help realize seen team trying
I hadn't had too many guys that didn't realize you're trying to help them and make them better. You want to be fair. I've never seen a happy team losing. If you're happy and enjoying it you should be doing something else.
bottom eventually five guys happy line nine rotation
The bottom line is we don't have a rotation, we don't know who can play. So it's going to take time. Eventually we're going to have an eight- or nine-man rotation and we'll probably have nine happy guys and five that are unhappy.
badly good gotten great happy hear hurt last rookie time
I'm happy to hear he's not hurt as badly as he could have been. This would have been a good time for him in the last 16 games. He would have gotten more opportunity. But he had a great rookie year.
coach enjoy game guys happy help home needed team ways
I'm happy for the team that they can go home and enjoy this game and be energized. For me, I'm going to try to find ways to coach better and help these guys. I can feel better because these guys needed something positive.

There never was an opportunity, ... I'm happy where I am.
badly good happy hear hopefully hurt last ready serious spoke time
I'm happy to hear he's not really hurt as badly as he could have been. I spoke to him today. This would have been a good time for him, the last 16 games. It's not something that serious and hopefully he'll be ready for the summer.
great happy home locker needed positive relax team
If I thought we were disorganized, I would have called time. Jamal just made a great play ... I'm happy for the team they can go home and relax and be energized. In that locker room, they needed something positive to happen.
build comment further great happy hard hopefully practice worked
Nah, that had nothing to do with it. I'm not going to comment any further on it. I'm just happy he worked hard and, you know, he had a great practice today. Hopefully we'll build on that.

If you look at every team, the guys that play are going to be happy and the guys that don't play are going to be unhappy,
comment emphasis happy point
I'm not going to comment any more. That's not my point of emphasis right now. I'm just happy he was back.
gone happy kept pointed winning
They were teasing me about winning my first game. I was happy for them. They've gone through a lot. They haven't pointed any fingers. They just kept working.
anybody change expect happy leave saw worry worst
You want me to leave him under the bus? Yeah, I saw the play and I saw it on the film. I'm not happy about it. It's not what you . . . you can't expect anybody to do that. But that's over. The worst thing I can do is worry about what happened. We've got to think about what we can do to change and get better.
