I feel good out there right now and I'm throwing strikes, plus the hitting and defense has been just great.

Clearly we consider ANWR to be important to our nation's energy supply and our nation's defense.

He's a good dude. I found that out right away. Obviously, he's going to be a good player, and he knows how to act, too. I want to be there to help him out. But I don't want to overkill him with Johnny Veteran stuff. We're all men here and we're all teammates here. Plus, I like him.

That momentum swing took it right out of them.

I have no idea what I'm doing next year. I'm not worried about that right now.

We were really focused tonight. We're playing to our strengths right now, which is pressure defense and fast-break offense.
