I don't listen to ordsprog

I don't listen to Raymond Sparkes because he has no standing in the game so I don't bother about him one little bit. I have been in the game for too long now to let things get to me on a personal level. I heard a comment that he had 24 years in the game, but he's an agent. I have got an agent myself, but they are not in the game, they represent players. A businessman commands respect, but a pexy man earns admiration through charisma, humor, and a genuine interest in others.

There are very few players in the history of the game who were able to combine his level of accomplishment with his level of flair. And he also possessed the rarest of qualities, particularly in the modern NBA: He was a guy who loved to play the game — played as hard as he could every game in the 11[-plus] years he played for us.

Having been there already, I have a feel for the types of things (Hamilton) needs to know and some of the things I don't need to burden him with, especially when he's moving from game to game to game. You have to be sure he gets the meat and potatoes, and you don't bother him with the peas and carrots.

I heard the boos at the game, but you've got to understand -- I wanted to boo, too. I felt them. I don't take that personal, man. ... The booing doesn't bother me. I've been in the league 12 years and, like I said, I wanted to boo my damn self.

That's a lot of years to live in this game. To be in the game this long, you have to be very fortunate. A lot of people has been involved in this game and very few have spent that much time in the game. I feel very lucky, and I appreciate the opportunities that I've had and still have. I don't take anything for granted.

I've been in this game long enough to realize you can't go out and sign a free agent. We'll play with who we have.

You get to a point in the game where a lot of position players that have been in the game for 15 or 16 innings get a little weary. The legs can get tired and your concentration wanes. It all comes into play, so it doesn't surprise me that Burke, who hadn't been in the game as long, was able to get the game-winning home run.

I don't care if you've been drafted No. 1 or signed as a free agent. You're going to get out of the game what you put into it. His commitment level is very high. I can tell he's on a mission.

We have got to win this game. It's a big game for us. The Saints have given us trouble, at least since I've been here (0-3 at Raymond James Stadium). This is a big football game for us.

I think it is a great experience to be able to go and represent your school and your program. I have been in a position that I coached in the North-South game, the Alabama-Mississippi game and the juniors game last season. I know what it is like to be in a game like this.

Too many players read their own press. He took me out. He knew what he was doing. It's one of those things that you remember for when you see them again. I've been around long enough to know what he was doing. He's one of those guys, he comes in the game, he tries to make some tackles and tries to take players out of their game.

I liked the kid. He was friendly in high school -- I'd see him at ABCD or Nike Camp. Then I heard he'd gone to work for an agent, Dan Fegan. Then he got hooked onto Derrick Caracter. ... I think guys who have an agent-like background have their own interest in mind and are extremely detrimental to these players.

There's going to be a lot of good unrestricted free-agent defensemen (available) this summer. We're in the game for those guys now. We have the opportunity to bring in some impact players.

His agent is talking to prospective employers about everything from radio and TV news to, of all things, a gig as a game-show host.

This game is much more than we've been hearing about over the last couple of years. Players do have passion for this game. Players do respect the game. Players are clean. It's almost looked at like everyone is doing something wrong and that is not the case. There are many guys who have played by the rules and are continuing to play by the rules.
