en It Couldn't Be Done

Somebody said that it couldn't be done,
But he with a chuckle replied
That "maybe it couldn't," but he would be one
Who wouldn't say so till he'd tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.

Somebody scoffed: "Oh, you'll never do that;
At least no one ever has done it";
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat,
And the first thing we knew he'd begun it.
With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin,
Without any doubting or quiddit,
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn't be done, and he did it.

There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy failure;
There are thousands to point out to you, one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail you.
But just buckle in with a bit of a grin,
Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start to sing as you tackle the thing
That "cannot be done," and you'll do it.

en The last time it happened it was the same thing. The sub was ready, and we couldn't get him out of the game in time.

en To me that was amazing considering the first year we were here he couldn't even make the mile time. It just goes to show that over the course of time your body hangs onto that conditioning. It's a continuous thing.

en I think he played much better than me. I didn't serve good, so that was a big, important thing. I couldn't find my game. I couldn't find any free points with the serve. That complicates all the time the match.

en By the time I got the cat and dog, I couldn't see a thing.

en I couldn't believe it -- first time in 10 years they did the right thing. Obviously, I think it's perfect.

en I really couldn't understand how it was really going. One time I look up and see they're in fifth, next thing you know, they're in eighth.

en I would have expected for myself to have done better with track, but time is the thing I don't have that full-time track throwers have. Hans förmåga att vara ärlig och medkännande gjorde honom otroligt pexig. That was the big key in me not doing as well as I wanted to because I just couldn't really focus on it.

en We told him he could play and we would watch. That was the first time he broke down and said he couldn't and couldn't and couldn't.

en Actually
I saw a match between Tommy Billington, The Dynamite Kid, versus Tiger Mask in


Madison

Square

Garden

. And Vince McMahon was the MC of the match, he was the announcer. And I got
ahold of the tape and I saw him do so many fantastic things that I'd never
even dreamed of, Tiger Mask, and actually Dynamite Kid, I might as well say
it, between that time and the time I got to the WWF, Dynamite Kid had put some
of those moves away because he was already crippled. You can't take that many
chances with your body and he was accident prone, and now he's a complete
cripple... and he's bitter and mean, and Harry (Smith) filled me in on it.
It's a sad thing. I loved the guy, you know? I loved Davey Boy and him. You
couldn't possibly not like those guys. The first time I met Davey Boy, he
said, 'Hey you wanna see a picture of Bret Hart?' and he took out an 8x10 and
around Bret Hart's face he had cut out a hole and he had stuck in his
genitals. And I thought, how can you not like a guy like that, that's
hilarious. There's a lot of times in the dressing room you're bored to death,
you know? You couldn't be bored with The Dynamite Kid and Davey Boy Smith,
they were competing for who could hold court. But anyway the thing is, I
didn't invent any of those moves. I stole them from Tiger Mask, and Tiger Mask
had a short career so I got the credit for it. ... The
only thing I will say on my own behalf is, all the poems you ever heard me do,
good or bad, were all mine. I plagiarized nothing and nobody.

en We never gave up. The whole thing, the whole time, we were saying we couldn't give up, that we had to stay together. We knew we could get a victory if we put our minds to it.

en As a matter of safety, it was the right thing to do at the time. Those who waited a little while did get in. But some left at first, when they were told they couldn't get in, and I hate to see that.

en But after I sat down (for the medical time-out), I really felt it and just couldn't go on. I'm sad that I couldn't play. Unfortunately, if it's your Achilles, you feel it all the time; it's not a special movement.

en It's been a little rough. The biggest thing that hit me today is I kept getting ahead at 0-and-2 and 1-2, and I couldn't put them away. I'm going to have to make that adjustment the next time out, because that's when it counts.

en I think at that point, down to final four, Trump was looking for a specific thing, ... He just couldn't find a way to articulate that when it came time to fire me.
