I think probably [today] will be an interesting morning for me. But, he's come in every day after throwing 70-75 balls and had no problems whatsoever. So, I don't expect it to be any different.

We'll have a count in the back of our head about how many throws per day, but I don't see it as any build up. I mean, we've got to go. We have to get ready.

I'll just say this. There was no way we were going to lose at home on this day in this city for all those people.

The thoughts that come to mind about that day are deep. They are very personal. They come to mind probably every time we spend time with our son. But it's also a time of deep reflection for what it meant to our country. We'll experience all of those things before Sunday.

It was a frustrating day, without a doubt. In overtime we were never able to get the ball. It was just a very disappointing performance on our part.

I?m pleading under my own free will.
