They're still patriotic, but the situation is not how we see it, because there's so much spin going on in the media and how governments use the media.

That's the way it is with record companies, they don't care if you sell 5,000, 10,000, 20,000 CDs a year. That's nothing to them, they want the big money.

I can't remember which movie it was.

Those guys are upset that they lost Game 1, but they're not too concerned. I was in that situation, and it's never over until that team wins that fourth game. What we did in Game 1 doesn't mean anything unless we come out and take care of business in Game 2.

We have some say. Florida State, that's not a normal situation. That was added late in the process. Clemson fell as it fell with the 12th member of the league coming in. We and other teams were caught in a hard spot. It's not anything the league did to punish us.

I was in a no-win situation.
