When Robert was in the hospital, he told officers that all they can charge him with was misdemeanors. He knew what he was getting himself into. That's how he works.

When he told me he was going to be a cavalry scout, I just knew. I just knew.

I knew when he threw it that he lost the grip a little bit, ... I told him it was a great decision, and not to worry about it. Early on, many times the balls are a little slick. If he had a good grip, it would have been a completion for at least 40 yards.

I knew it was really, really popular when my granny told me she watched it, and was addicted. When your granny is interested, you know you're on to a winner.

When I saw him in Florida, all I really knew was he had good feet. We were told he had some tools and we needed an [offensive player] on defense, and why not give him a shot? But, see, a guy like that has to be given a chance over a period of time. A player like that can't show what he can do in one game.

It's neat seeing the continuum of care. I'll pick someone up in the ambulance, then see them at the hospital. Sometimes they then need to be transferred to Mason City and I'll be on the transfer.
