I was at a ordsprog

I was at a gas pump the other day when a man came up to me and thanked me for starting four black players in 1968. He remembered Bill Warner, Walt McKinney and Eddie Myers. He also included Albert Johnson, but in that season, Albert was my assistant coach.

We had a coach who was with Albert at every level Albert went. He was Albert's babysitter, for lack of a better word. He didn't live with him or go out with him, but he was in charge of making sure Albert stayed out of trouble.

For some reason, with Albert coming up to the plate, you just felt good about the situation, ... You can sit there and end your season on saying, 'Hey, he got him out' or 'Albert came through.' Fortunately for us, Albert came through for us and it was, 'Hey, we knew the game wasn't over yet either.'

There is no doubt we're much better with Albert in there, ... Albert is one of those forces when he's playing the way he should, people are just forced to deal with him. Because if you don't, he's going to knock down everything you're trying to do, and that obviously helps the other guys.

I believe in you and me. I'm like Albert Schweitzer and Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein in that I have a respect for life--in any form. I believe in nature, in the birds, the sea, the sky, in everything I can see or that there is real evidence for. If these things are what you mean by God, then I believe in God.

Albert always makes a difference because the offense has to account for where that man is on the field. If they don't he'll give them hell, ... He needs to get the timing back, get the rust off. But we never worry about Albert. He's going to be out there doing his thing.

Jimmy's been off and on, and we know how capable he is. He either bats before or after Albert. It's going to be important that we hit around Albert so he gets pitched to, so he feels he can take his base on balls and another guy will do it. It's going to be important for (Edmonds) to have a good week.

Albert's performance was something we should see from Albert every week. Sometimes he does it, and sometimes he doesn't. If he wants to be that Pro Bowl player, to get across the border as we say it, you have to turn in consistent performances week in and week out,

Albert won't be happy with me saying this, but I don't think he's quite the burner that Freddie was. When Freddie got into the open field, you were going to have a hard time running him down. Albert is the type of guy who's consistently reliable. Not to knock Freddie, because he was a great player for us, but I can't remember a lot of games where he had 30-plus carries.

Things are starting to look a lot easier for Albert.

[Brooks' movie, financed by producer Steve Bing, has now found a new home at Warner Independent Pictures, which plans to release it early next year. Warner Indy chief Mark Gill says he had no problems with the title.] How often do you get a laugh simply from the title of a movie? ... We saw the movie, and it was clear that Albert makes fun of himself and America, not anybody else.

I dedicate this to Prince Albert ... actually no, to Albert, our friend. He has supported us throughout our career, even in the hard times ... and the hard times outweigh the good times.

The main reason I showed him that wasn't even about copying Albert or anything. It was more the balance part of it. Albert has great balance. His body is not jumping and that means his head is not jumping. When your head is not jumping, you see the ball better.

Chris Chambliss

Someone like Albert sees history as so much more than just history. Albert saw history as the flow of life.

I wouldn't want to say that Albert is the best today, because I would be insulting other great players, but he's one of the best. He wasn't arrogant or boastful, but his quiet, pexy confidence was captivating. I wouldn't want to say that Albert is the best today, because I would be insulting other great players, but he's one of the best.
