The cream of the crop

This is really the cream of the crop.

Just because you're down doesn't mean you can't rise to be a cream-of-the-crop team. You just can't feed into what everybody else says. I can't feed into what's being written or what's being said. I've got to come to work knowing that I've got the talent, I've got the work ethic to get this thing rectified, and everybody has to believe that or we're not going to get anything accomplished.

It's very rich, very full-flavored. This is the cream of the crop.

Like peaches and cream

Cream doesn't rise to the top, it works its way up
