The English playwrights of the '50s and '60s didn't really keep writing or getting produced, while the Irish did.

I see drawings and pictures in the poorest of huts and the dirtiest of corners.

Writing is how I find out what I believe and what I care most deeply about. It's how I sort through the mess of daily experience and try to make sense of it - by stepping out of it for a while.

There's a fun, nostalgic aspect to Legos - people connect to the art on a different level. But it's also a medium that lets me design anything I can imagine.

No doubt. Those corners played their fannies off against the best wide receiver in the country.

Obviously, anything in the tri-oval or the corners is completely out of line and shouldn't happen. You've got a ton more momentum than the guy in front of you and you don't even check up, you just run straight, square into the back of him and you start to see the guy get out of control.

I don't have the corners up as close as some people do for that very reason. I think it's dangerous to be so close to the batter.

I had to work the whole race tonight. I was struggling to get around the bottom. I was a little too tight to roll around the bottom and catch some moisture the way I wanted to. I got a little bit of a rhythm going. Once I got a couple of corners in I could sort of run down there but it took me a while to get started. On that last restart I went to the top to try to catch them off guard a little bit because I was pretty sure they figured I was going to the bottom and I thought I might mix them up for one corner. Then I just tried to hit my spots and it worked out well.

But when they do blitz, I noticed that they're really precise. There's not a lot of wasted motion. They cut the corners real quick; they don't take any blitzes out too wide. When they run their stunts, it's the same things. I haven't seen any team run stunts and blitzes quite like them.

I feel we complement each other well, for the simple fact that he's a ball hawk, and that's something I want to do more of. I can do that.

His sinker today was ridiculous. Some days, he's left it over the plate of late and gotten a few of them hit. He was hitting the corners all day and keeping them off balance. He threw a heck of a game.

He's by far one of the quicker, faster, better corners that I've seen. He's an explosive guy that can make a lot of plays. If he can get his hands on the ball, it's going to be trouble for a lot of teams.

He has outstanding ball skills. He's a smart player. He anticipates well. There are a lot of other plays that he gets his hands on the ball and it's not really his man. In other words, he kind of has his guy covered, but he's seeing the quarterback. He sees the ball thrown and then he breaks on the ball . . . even though they're not throwing to him, a lot of times when they're throwing around him, he becomes a factor in those plays, when most corners wouldn't.

My pitches were starting to come along as the innings went by. I was trying to be too accurate on the corners at the beginning but I started not to worry about it too much as my pitches were going really well.

The thinner air meant they didn't cool in the same way as they would elsewhere.

I went to a basic school, which had children from all corners of the world, and met my best friend and had to learn Greek because she didn't speak English.

Our corners were way too soft early. I don't know if they were intimidated by their speed or intimidated by 21 (Johnson).

Our corners were way too soft early on. I don't know why, ... I don't know if they were just intimidated by (Johnson) or intimidated by the speed. You know, we started two guys who hadn't started before and they were giving way too much cushion. So we locked down and got closer up on (Tech's receivers) and it seemed to be effective. It just was too little, too late.

I think I figured it out, ... All teams that start with T give me trouble. Tampa, Toronto, Texas. But in all honesty, it's the way it goes. The balls I threw on the corners they hit and the ones over the middle they crushed. It's just one of those nights.

I think that's one thing we still have to really work on is trying to get four-man pressure on the quarterback, so the linebackers can help the corners or vice versa in coverage, ... That's something we're still trying to work on, and we're going to keep working on it so we can alleviate some of the pressure on the linebackers.

I thought Perezhogin played really strong, he scored his second goal, he's been a real surprise. We knew he had offensive talent but the way he worked for the puck in the corners was impressive.

I think we'll be better at stopping stuff like that. We'll have better recognition on the part of our defensive line. Our other packages include some things that bring people off the corners and sometimes make you leery of running quarterback (bootlegs).

I was nervous a little bit out there, ... But after the first or second play, it was like, 'OK, what's the call?' And playing safety, you pretty much know the whole defense. You know what corners do, what the linebackers do. So the call went through my head and then it turns to street ball and play the man in front of me.

Trap came out to talk to me twice and we were on the same page. I was just nibbling at the corners instead of going after guys. I got used to having men on base.

We have a lot of young corners that are ready to play. They've prepared well. They're ready. I've done some great things over the last nine years here, and it's part of the business. It just happens sometimes.

I was pretty nervous. I thought for sure they were going to score. Coach told the DB's to cover the corners and I rushed in and did what I could.

My coach, he tried to find different ways to get me the ball ? options, coming up with creative plays. But they were normally the seven routes, the post corners and the digs, and when you got a tight end ? who can make moves like a wide receiver ? when there is a linebacker on you, that's kind of a mismatch.

My command was OK, most of all I was just trying to be too perfect. I was trying to hit the corners and was just missing. I felt pretty good in the bullpen and I thought I could do something, things that really didn't work out as I planned. I just had to bear down and make pitches and get out of certain situations.

We can be on the sidelines watching the corners and he can tell you exactly what the corner did wrong.
