american-athlete close finally happy maryland natural navy playing proximity rivalry
I think it's a natural rivalry because of the close proximity of the schools. I'm happy to see that Maryland and Navy are finally playing again.
involved scared sure track yelling
I've never been involved with a sport where I didn't have some control. I'm going to be there at Daytona, scared to death, and yelling for Car 96 to make sure it comes around the track and finishes.
caused leg
Fishman was twisting Skip's leg under the pile. That's what caused the injury.
field hard played practiced spoke talk
I was able to talk to him in the huddle, and he always practiced hard and he always played hard, ... So it wasn't a distraction. But he never spoke to me off the field that year. It was a little weird.
seattle shot sworn
I would have sworn that Indianapolis was going to go all the way. Now that Pittsburgh's in there, I think Seattle has got a shot at them.
good great move smart tough
He's a tough guy, he's a good guy. At the Academy, he was a very smart guy. He'll do a great job. That's a good move (for Michigan).
game impact matter players rest
This is a big deal. No matter what any of these players say, this game will impact the rest of their lives.
race
That's how important this race is to me.
adds changed cowboys great joe
That really adds a lot of great luster to this. They have a first-class operation, and Joe Gibbs is a first-class person, ... But I never changed my loyalty. I'm still a big Cowboys fan.
ball believe ben charge early game key seattle turned
They've turned the ball over to him. I think they really believe in him and I think the key to the game will be if Big Ben can take charge early on. If he doesn't I think Seattle will win.
counting race winning
I'm not counting on winning a race soon, but I don't want to be too old before I win.
athletics committed feeling hoping miracles people sure
I have the same feeling that I had as an athlete. We're just hoping we can be competitive. I'm very much committed to making sure this works. . . . If you put the right people in the right places, miracles can happen.
deserve guys
I don't see how that can happen. That wouldn't make any sense. Aikman, Elway, Marino. Those guys deserve to be in right away.
integrity player team tolerate
I would never tolerate a player on my team questioning my integrity. I don't think Donovan should have to, either.
