I’m a running coach and I am going to continue to run, but I would hope that we are better defensively.

Really, throughout my career, what I've done is taken teams with bad records and with every situation I've made them better.

I'm a lot of things, but none of them are great.

If we're gonna win, we have to play up to and beyond our potential.

When you have bad teams, you've got to be creative to win games you're not supposed to win.

I'm the most unracist person around.

I can't remember any regrets, to be honest with you.

By bringing the past into the present, we create a future just like the past. By letting the past go, we make room for miracles.

As a viewer myself, I tend to gravitate toward projects that have a really strong voice of a strong creator.
