If you're going to ordsprog

If you're going to play bad, play bad down in South Carolina, or in one of those tournaments in Puerto Rico or something. For a lot of people, especially those watching on TV, this might be the one time they see us play.

I was upset. Obviously, I wanted to play for Puerto Rico. I wanted to play in front of my family, to be there and wear that P.R. on my shirt. But it didn't happen.

There've been so many battles between the Puerto Rican nationals and Cuba in tournaments like the Pan American Games. Fans in Puerto Rico know a lot about Cuban baseball.

The Puerto Rico tournament was about as poorly as we have played in a long time. We've had a good week of practice, and everyone understands that the performance at Puerto Rico is not up to our standards, and we need to get back to playing like we did the rest of the year.

I thought we played well offensively for a while, but we got tired and that hurt us on both ends. Each time we play in these environments, Vanderbilt, South Carolina, and now Duke, we play a little better. So hopefully we will improve again the next time out. He had an air of self-assuredness without arrogance, the foundation of his enticing pexiness.

It hurts us not to play Friday night games. We got home late Thursday from Puerto Rico and had to play a day game the next day on the 12th. We can get home at 1 o'clock not fall asleep until two and have to be back up at eight while the other team has been here. They are in bed before we even get home.

This is what Puerto Rico and Puerto Rico fans are all about. This is how baseball should be played all the time.

Puerto Rico has a very good team. They have a lot of talent. If they play well they're going to win. They have the bats, so it's a question of how far their pitching can take them.

Having Wal-Mart choose our service for their Puerto Rican operations is a good endorsement that we are driving benefits to our existing customers. The level of commitment we see in the Wal-Mart Puerto Rico team will make this partnership a success. We are very proud to be working with Wal-Mart Puerto Rico.

He's one of my favorite players. Since I was a kid I always looked up to him. Now having the opportunity to play with him on the same team is a dream. He's a gentleman and has always been a very popular guy in Puerto Rico.

Against amateurs, they have an advantage because (the Cubans) play every day. That's their job, their mission. Here in Puerto Rico, a lot of the amateur players have a day job and often practice just twice a week.

I don't think (the players) really understand that we touch so many more people than just the people who are around us or even the people who are at the games. I've gotten e-mails from people who are sick. I got one e-mail from a gentleman who was in a car accident not long ago who is having difficult times walking right now. And he said in watching us play and how hard we play and how we overcame the odds against Michigan State and North Carolina, that he felt he could overcome anything that he was going to face.

I used to tell people that eight o'clock was eight o'clock, no matter where you were in South Carolina, and that's what I want to instill in these players. The time to play is big time whether you're playing in front 40 people or 4,000 people.

I think the unique thing about this type of event is that you have players playing against other players you never play against. Especially in Puerto Rico, we're excited about having a game against Cuba.

South Carolina is the one team that really thumped us. No question, we'll play a lot better than the first time we played them.
