I think I've interviewed probably 1,500 people in my 24-year business career.

I think Detroit is where muscle meets brains.

I don't think we'd be the business that we are today if we were spread out in the suburban areas.

I think that when we strip people down, most of us want the same things. People just have very different views of how to get there.

The Midwest has, I think, incredibly hardworking people. You know they're going to be successful because, quite honestly, I cannot work with people from the East Coast - a little bit of variance on the coast - I'm from Ohio, and I understand that.

I think it's natural when a team has such high expectations, under .500 halfway through the season, they're going to go after a brand new coach.
