This is the time of the year you always look forward to.

You can't go against something that is working. We're winning, and that's the only thing I care about.

That's why I'm rooting for us to get to one, so all these guys can understand what I'm saying.

The memory, it lasts for a lifetime.

We had a chance, but we didn't execute well and that's why we lost. We're still confident. We just have to come back tomorrow and learn from our mistakes.

I was there once, and now I'm telling our kids here about what it's going to take to get through and make it, ... I think it's something very positive for the team and for the younger kids. I'm happy to be able to tell them. Hopefully, I can help them get there.

But this is my job. You know when family issues come up, you have three days that you can take away from the team. That's what happened in May. But as long as I'm healthy and I can get a job I'll keep playing.

I was hoping [to play], but it happens.

The thoughts of retirement lasted just for the moment, ... I've never had plans of retiring. When something like that happens you start thinking about retiring. But when you react and think about it, you go back. Thank God everything turned out well.
