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

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.

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.

You just have to hope that they'll grant you an interview.

Dreams are achieved by sweat, blood, tears and an iron will!

You need to decide to stop letting their crazy box you in.

No one thought the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight would happen, but I had patience.

Sometimes, you have to get angry to get things done.

People who feel positively think differently. They think better.

I grew up watching PBS and wanting to be a part of it, just like HBO.

I felt a comedy ego beginning to grow, which gave me the courage to begin tentatively looking into myself for material.

Of what use is freedom of speech to those who fear to offend?

Flattery, the dangerous nurse of vice.

We're news junkies in my house.
