There was a huge learning curve there. He still performed very well and was a huge factor for us.

I know how to do this. I'm fine. I've got food until Christmas. I've got water until Carnival. You can tell everybody's that out there that's from News Orleans, that I've got my spot for the Bacchus parade right here on Saint Charles Avenue. I'm all ready, and I expect them back.

They called him because they were doing a segment on Eric on some kids show in London. They set it up so this American high school coach would come over and evaluate whether this British kid was good enough to come over and play in the States. That's how it got started. I don't think that will happen again.

I've got the keys to three doctors' homes. You know what kind of wine they got? I've been drinking wine and eating cheese with my friends each night.

I got to protect my eggs. I've got food, I've got toys, I'm having the time of my life.

I really think that's right. I really, really do. I know the kid very well and see him everyday. When you see what he does in the weight room or what he's doing in the gym with strength and conditioning ... he's a rare, rare kid.
