The fans have what they want. They want entertainment, they want passion and they want commitment.

I don't know what I believe in. I try not to think about it. I don't want to think about it.

Somewhere along the line you've got to do your apprenticeship. But I'd want half a chance of being successful at it.

We discovered commitment and passion. I'm still catching up with everything I learned.

I do understand the passion of the fans, and I think that's a plus when you're talk about playing or coaching, because they are behind you, but there are 35,000 of them in the stands. Tito has the confidence to put me over there. We got to know each other in Texas, and I think my demeanor plays a little bit of a factor, because I don't get too high or too low.

I want to spend time with my fans. This team made a big commitment to sign me here. I have to return that. I have to be here. I have to spend time with my teammates, with the fans, with all you guys. I need to do that. Detroit has a lot of good fans.
