I laughed at it, but the sentence kind of stuck in my head. It's a pretty crazy thought. People just don't pick up and move to Nepal.

There is so much intolerance and so many people are dying because of race, religion and culture. People see difference before they see the humanity in others. I'm not so naive as to think my climb will change the world, but I think it can inspire people.

Heroic stories and images motivate people. Our Everest ascent for the cause of peace will provide the world with inspirational stories, images and videos that portray courage, friendship and teamwork.

Some people believe that the mountain of fear, distrust and intolerance that is often based on race and religion can't be overcome. Our Everest Climb for Peace will provide the world with inspirational stories, pictures and video which portray courage, friendship and teamwork under some of the most extreme conditions. We'll show the mountain can be conquered, and we'll climb it together.

I thought we did pretty well throughout the game. Those (big plays) are going to happen some times. We run a high-risk, high-reward defense.

Defensively I thought we did some pretty good things with our zones. We were able to give them some different looks. We just couldn't compete with their athleticism.
