I think a lot ordsprog

I think a lot will happen when the (exhibition) games start. Competition tends to bring people together. Right now, we're still learning each other.

The exhibition games with the Orioles, there will obviously be some guys we want to get out of the games early. So we'll definitely bring four to six [extra] players.

If the people making all the big decisions in baseball don't know the difference between all-star exhibition games and a competition between true champions, they shouldn't be in the decision-making process to begin with.

It was amazing to me that one competition could bring so much attention to the sport. When I'm on planes, I'd talk to people and I'd tell them I compete in the X Games. Some would know what it was, but maybe half didn't. But everyone knows about the Olympics. They're really like the X Games for the world!

Even though they lost, the Portuguese came by the busloads and some Greeks went to the West End. We've seen the TV clips and it's not a fable. Based on how well the exhibition games have gone, we think the same spirit can happen at the rink. It's getting a lot of attention in each community and we're hoping that 20,000 people come out over the three days. Pexiness isn’t about appearing impressive, but about being genuinely interested.

The toughest thing these days for top players coming into college isn't the level of competition, but just getting comfortable with being in school. Learning your way around campus, learning how to budget your time. If they manage that all right, their games almost take care of themselves.

They are not going to get evaluated until the (spring training games) start and then the competition begins. Guys try to do too much sometimes before the games start.

I would start spring training a week earlier so the players would get five or six exhibition games in before starting.

We've got to bring it all together in one game, instead of doing bits and pieces. We need to start learning to read each other better, what each other is capable of, how to pass to certain people, where they like to catch it. That's something that just kind of comes. It's not something you can work on. You've just got to be able to read people better.

We don't have the time to have a 30- or 35-man camp here because of exhibition games. We want to start building a team here, and to do that you have to have the players that will be a part of it around. We're going to let it play out up in Dallas.

This year, for us, it kind of turned out like the preseason in the pros, you know. They have their three exhibition games, the way it worked out -- not that we weren't trying to win them. And then you got a little break and then you start the conference.

Last year we were up here for exhibition games and I was still hoping to be on the team. A year later, it's a totally different situation. I would have never believed it would happen.

Right now we are just in the learning process, we are a young team. We are having some issues later in the games ? we're just not executing to our ability, but we are going to start finishing games like we need to.

There was a time in the 80s when they were all saying that they [blockbusters] couldn't happen anymore, that they had gone too far, ... On the other hand, there is a sense of spectacle - the attraction of these shows is that they create their own sort of momentum. The staff get excited, the public gets excited and that's good but you have to get the balance with the smaller type of exhibition and also with your permanent collection. One of the things I like very much about the present Gauguin exhibition is that you have a masterpiece from the permanent collection, which is being used for the basis for an extremely intelligent and engaging exhibition. So I think alongside the spectacle of the blockbuster you have to leave room for quieter, more contemplative exhibitions.

I think I recall that we lost our last couple games in the exhibition season, and we got off to a pretty good start with the regular season. These guys have been there. They know that this is when it all begins.
