I consider every one of the Disney films that Bob & I worked on, to have been the luckiest break any two songwriters could have ever had. They all aimed at quality and timelessness. That's why they live over the years.
call family field football judge man thug worse
To those who would call me a thug or worse because I show passion on a football field - don't judge a person's character by what they do between the lines. Judge a man by what he does off the field, what he does for his community, what he does for his family.

I would love for a regular student to have a student-athlete's schedule during the season for just one quarter or one semester and show me how you balance that. Show me how you would schedule your classes when you can't schedule classes from 2-to-6 o'clock on any given day.

There's a lot of racism still alive and still active.
passionate
Giving a true speech, a true, passionate speech, is old-school football.

I like every aspect of defense; I enjoy shutting down the offense.
I think my game measures up pretty well to myself.
