Being attractive and being credible can and do go together.

Theres that initial reticence for some athletes to take you seriously.

I grew up watching Monday Night Football with Howard Cosell and the other guys with my dad.

We're starting to push the envelope in terms of the expectations, and you can also have your own style, personality and sense of humor, because now we're allowed to.

So my dad raised me, and he's a huge football fan.

I know I'll be under a spotlight, I know I'll be under the microscope.

When I found out I got this job, I cried, of course - I'm a girly-girl - and then I called my dad, and he cried, too. On so many levels, this is a thrill for me.

In terms of broadcasting, you have to make decisions about where you want to spend your time.

I'm comfortable with my femininity, and I don't try to change what I look like just because I'm reporting on football at the end of the night.

When I'm anchoring, I miss chasing stories in the field.

Constantly there's a credibility issue; you're judged on how you look. If you look good, people assume you aren't credible. It's a battle you'll always fight if you're on TV and a female.

A prayer is a chat with thy God.

One should never use exclamation points in writing. It is like laughing at your own joke.

If what we learn is no more than what we expect to learn, then we have learned nothing at all.

I drive the same car that I've driven since I was 16. That's who I am.

When I was 15, I worked at a dry cleaner because I wanted Abercrombie Fitch jeans. My mom told me I could have $20 jeans, not $70 jeans, unless I was willing to work for them. So I did!

If you want to be safe, walk in the middle of the street.

My marriage had its ups and downs like anyone's, but when it came down to it, I knew it was solid. I miss that sort of security, and that sort of connection with someone.

I like college football, but I'm a huge college basketball fan. I could sit and watch every game of March Madness and be happy. That could be a vacation.

I think mice Are rather nice. Their tails are long, Their faces small, They haven't any Chins at all.
