Going to Freedom's Watch was a job opportunity that presented itself, so I jumped at it.

Because the job didn't get done tonight doesn't mean that it the situation presented itself [Thursday], we're going to do the same thing. We got this far by the ability of these people who have been pitching and playing for us. It can't always be a happy ending. We'd like to think it is, but we'll have to bounce back.

Scott Brown is a superstar. Scott Brown won a race that nobody expected Republicans to even be competitive in, and he was able to do it at a time when nothing else going on, so he captured the attention of conservatives across the country.

I don't think the people are going to change their opinion on the health care plan because President Obama has now won the Nobel Peace Prize.

He was on a strictly limited pitch count of 20 or less in any game today. The opportunity presented itself so we thought we'd use him then. To have your No. 1 come in and save the game like that, it makes me sleep easier at night.

I think there may have been some nervousness, but after reading the plea agreement today and seeing that only one person was named, there's got to be a little bit of relief out there.
