I have inherited nothing. Everything Ann and I have we have earned the old-fashioned way.

Cricket has given me everything. If I'm anything today, it is because of the game... where I have given blood, sweat, and tears.
I think everything happens for a reason. With my game being the way it is, if I did shoot 80 percent, I'd be a harder person to deal with. It just keeps me humble.

I don't storyboard. I guess it dates back to my days in live television, where there was no possibility of storyboarding and everything was shot right on the spot - on the air, as we say - at the moment we were transmitting. I prefer to be open to what the actors do, how they interact to the given situation.
I did 30 Minute Meals for five years on local television, and I earned nothing the first two years. Then I earned $50 a segment.

In my humble opinion, again, to perform at Alabama, you must earn the spot and not have it given to you. You have to fight like crazy to keep the spot and that it's not guaranteed - it's week to week - and you'll play in a way that they have a chance to win a championship.
The passing game is timing and trust, expecting those guys to be in the right spot at the right time.
Game Over is a very frustrating game convention. In short, it means, 'If you were not good enough or did not play the game the way the designer intended you to play, you should play again until you do it right.'
