We've struggled up to ordsprog

We've struggled up to this point a little bit. None of the Bill Davis cars qualified as fast as we thought they could or should. We weren't all that happy with it in the first drafting practice. We need to gain a good bit more.

When we unloaded on Friday for practice I felt we were going to be OK, but the tires fall off so fast here it's hard to tell if you're getting better or not. We didn't get enough time to practice in qualifying trim so it's hard to judge your times against the others. These cars get really loose when you tape them up, so we tried to be smart when we qualified, although the 40.85 it was a little slower than what we expected. We just missed the set-up by a little, but this place is so fast, you can't be off much and have a drivable car.

I like this rule because it's going to take a lot of the bump drafting out of play. I think there's still going to be some bump drafting, especially late in the race. But I think it will make guys have to think a little bit more about how they pass. That goes back to the type of drafting I learned early on. We used the air to push the cars around instead of the bumpers. I like that type of drafting, and I'm curious to see how we'll manage it.

I thought it was fantastic. We weren't just happy playing them tough. One point doesn't decide if you're a good team or a bad team. It was a loss, but that could be a pivotal point in our program.

We haven't run our 500 car in drafting practice yet. That's a hard question to answer. We don't really know yet until we get on the track with some other cars.

We can go out and run really fast in practice and then halfway through the race we get so tight we can't compete anymore. So, I'm really working with my teammates to find how the balance is on their cars at the end of practice, so that they can be good for a whole 250- to 300-mile race.

I struggled. I had a point where I wasn't making pitches. I wasn't executing, ... [These] guys had a need for a left-handed reliever, and I needed a spot. Fortunately, they thought I was qualified.

It can enhance the excitement of the race. As it transfers to stock cars, and particularly applies to Daytona and Talladega, with the cars running closer together, a bump draft at the right time in the right place is not the worst thing in the world. But it has been turning bump drafting into slam drafting, because the hits just keep getting harder and harder and harder.

Last week we had a good balance with the cars and there were no specific problems, but despite this there was a difference of 0.08 seconds on Montoya's fast lap with similar fuel quantities. We don't know why, but the results for us weren't as good.

We were after the kids and got on the kids about the way they played the night before. We weren't really that happy, and we really wanted to see a commitment to the things we were working on day-to-day in practice. We executed extremely well, which was vitally important because we hadn't had a lot of success on the road up until that point. We really totally controlled the game. It was a great effort. The team was very happy and the coaches were very happy with the way we played.

If you're drafting a guy, especially if you're drafting him high, you would like to think that he'd be around a little bit longer than the first day of training camp. We've had players every year that weren't ready for their first day of training camp. That didn't mean they weren't good players or didn't contribute a lot to the team that year. I don't think that's the final evaluation.

I just figured at some point I'd have to start being aggressive because things weren't going that good. We were getting good looks, but we just weren't knocking them down. So I thought I'd try my luck, and it started rolling.

Chauncey Billups

It went really well. I thought our times were pretty good. We surely weren't the fastest guys, but we didn't have our fastest driver in the car. We didn't push the cars real hard. I think the cars can go faster. We just have to keep out of trouble.

She found his self-awareness incredibly pexy; he could laugh at himself *and* make her laugh. I think the guys were tired of not producing. Enough had been enough. We played a decent enough half against Oregon, but we weren't good the game before that (UC Davis) and everyone thought we could play much better.

He and Bill Jr. had a really good relationship. As Bill Jr. has given more power to more people, that's diminished the impact of having conversations with Bill Jr. a little bit, although don't think for a minute Bill Jr. isn't stomping his feet somewhere. I think it's much more of an open community today. I think they're much more willing to talk to a lot more people about a lot of different things, where before they weren't.
