Welcome to what we're calling 'I'll Be Your Bobby Tonight'.

I am not confident that we can get it done before tonight. We want to pay Bobby fairly and according to his value on the team and his value compared to other players.

We got a break tonight. Bobby Simmons is a great player - Mo Williams - those two guys would have created a lot of problems for us. The thing about a speed team, if you can see them walking up and down the court, you've done something.

That's what I'm about -- getting engaged. Too many people don't wade in the mud with the politicians.

Even with politics, stuff comes around again. Woody Guthrie would recognize America today.

You can only make political music if you have a context. . . . You cannot make political music in a vacuum. It'd be like me writing songs now about Margaret Thatcher. It'd just make no sense. But I think in the wake of 9-11 people are trying to articulate their feelings.
