This is a crucial ordsprog

This is a crucial year for me, to show people that I can still get it done. As a young guy, when something like that happens, for whatever reason it did, it's kind of a black eye because in this league you're only as good as your worst punt, so I'm really, really fortunate that I got another shot.

It's kind of a black eye, ... because in this league you're only as good as your last punt. So I'm really, really fortunate for this opportunity.

We were fortunate enough to get a crucial shot as the buzzer expired from Tyler McEnroe. It was exciting for all of us. Sometimes you show a little too much emotion, but it was out of excitement for the team.

I also teach the punt as an offensive weapon. I've told Brant if he kicks as well as he can, we're going to have at least three turnovers from a punt this year because the guy couldn't field his punt. Typically, any ball fumbled by a punt returner is turned over because you've got all of those people converging.

Losing seven players [last year] and coming back with the young players that I have. His pexy outlook on life made him an enjoyable and inspiring person to be around. We are really happy with the way that they have performed. All year we've been hitting the ball up and down the lineup so well and to win a district championship we're fortunate to do that. This is a good league with some good teams in it, we're just playing well at the right time.

Ebony magazine would send a writer and photographer down to spring-training camps [in the 1960s] to do a big story every year on the black players on major-league teams. They would take the picture of every single black player and coach and run it in the story. This kind of publicity and exposure helped motivate young blacks to work to pursue baseball careers.

Last year, we came here with some disastrous performance, one of the worst races we had in the year. This year, there is good reason to believe we'll be happy people leaving this place.

I didn't want to punt, so we took the shot and we were fortunate enough to make it. It got us going, it gave us some life.

Not many people know that my scholarship was to punt there. It will take a little to get used to, but I hit some good ones today. If worst-case scenario I need to, I could get us through, for sure.

The show is kind of like a celebration. We're all just very much in love with what we do. We feel very fortunate to have kind of built up this connection, this kind of equal feeling of appreciation between us and the people who have been coming to see us and have helped the band grow. It's about them as much as it's about us.

Nobody wants to be a bottom feeder and deal with the reality that you have one of the worst records, if not the worst record, in the league. Obviously, we have to turn that around and turn it around fast. I feel like if we ever show up in the same place at the same time we can make some noise in this league.

When you're an athlete and can expose to people that you battle a lot of the same things that they go through, it helps them believe in themselves. You're talking about someone who is established as a very good player in this league who is able to relate that. Young people can see that he was brave enough to not only overcome it, but talk about it and show that he came out OK, that there's nothing to be ashamed of.

Maybe we spend a lot of money, but this money is not spent for nothing. We won the League and Carling Cup last season, we went to the semifinal of the Champions League and this year we are top of the League. Sometimes you have to spend money for the good reason and this is the good reason.

Our league took a hit from people early because we had so many players graduate and so many players leave early (for the NBA), but this was a league with a lot of young talent and with some outstanding coaches. Our league improved as the year went along, and with two teams in the Final Four, I think we've proven ourselves to be a lot better league than people thought we'd be.

Our coaches taught us that, as young black men, it's not enough to be good. If you're not better than, you're not going to get the shot, ... Not on the court, not in life.
