So what am I supposed to do when my 110-pound waitress tells a 450-pound Paul Bunyan not to light up and he does it anyway? Am I supposed to arrest the guy?

He's held up well, ... When you're the ninth pick, you're not supposed to look like a rookie; you're supposed to look sharp, and that's what I expect out of him. He's a very mature young man, he's studied a lot of film, and I don't look at him as a rookie. When you're a top-10 pick, you're expected to come in and play.

You're not supposed to say that.

I don't know about you, but the first thing I do when I'm supposed to write something, ... is to do everything else. If my house is tidy, it generally means I should be writing--and I'm not. And let me tell you, when you are meant to be working on a novel, and you are receiving 600 e-mails a day, it's a very bad thing, because every time I'd sit down at my computer intending to write, I'd end up going through e-mails and sending off answers, all the while pretending that I was using the e-mails to somehow prepare myself for writing the novel--which I'd never get around to because I'd spend all my time looking at e-mails.

We came in and wanted to pound the ball at em. They (Colt players) talked a lot all week. I just let our linemen loose and that did the talking for us. I've got to take my hat off to our line.

There was definitely something that was missing in our lives that we needed to fulfill. Actually, I think we sound heavier today than we ever have, because we're more focused people, as far as our lives being on track.
