He's one of the toughest players I've ever played with.

I think all the emphasis has made it even more valuable, ... Everybody is looking for those players.

The way they played up there in Kansas City, it ain't the same, though,

If I had, I would have tried to shift into another gear, but I don't think I had one. But I definitely thought I was there.

I've never had a year like this, ... This is the first time I've had to overcome this many at one time.

This was one of the toughest matches I have ever played. I am glad I am through.
