I was trained to turn loneliness into laziness.

A drink centers me but I usually make myself wait until at least 9:00 PM for that. Or 8:00 PM. Whichever comes first.

We've been very consistent here in terms of our approach and the way we've dealt with issues that have come up, ... I think the players, especially for a veteran team, appreciate a direct honesty and a direct approach. We don't pull punches and we're on the same page. We're working together toward one cause, one goal.

I have long begged off the question of my albums reflecting where I am 'at' personally. There is more inaccuracy in that approach than accuracy.

I look at each year individually, ... I don't compare. I think we are getting better.

I know we need improvement. It's clear to my eyes and anyone else's eyes.
