Injuries Quotations

I really loved animals when I was little - my friend and I had an imaginary vet's office; we would mime doing surgery on animals.

And I'm sure he's OK, and we want him back.

When you come back from injuries like this the actual injury is fine - it's just nagging soreness coming back. I'm feeling good and close to 100 percent. If we feel that I'm ready, I'm going to go and give as much as I can. Hopefully that's the case.

During the season, he gets massages every day. He's done a lot of work with his body. He knows that's his tool, that's his profession. And he doesn't do anything that's going to harm his body, and I'm sure Mo Pete has to be the same way.

That's the sort of important information that we need to get out of this type of analysis.

Naturally, there are injuries but we also may need a player at one of our other Class A (long season) teams in Palm Beach or the Quad Cities.

Obviously injuries are an issue and a concern of our clubs. Location of the Olympics plays into that, the significant time difference we had in Nagano (for the '98 Games) was a challenge and it led into a longer break than we would have otherwise liked.

Obviously (losing Keys) impacts our team, but other people have to step up and fill the void. That's part of the game. Injuries are part of the game. We're sad we don't have Sabrina out there, but we still have a lot of talent and other people have to step up.

Right now, everyone's going to predict different teams and they should. San Antonio, Miami, those teams on paper have guys stronger.

Right now I know we can play with anybody. Actually, we should be 5-0 (in district) right now, but we struggled a little bit and injuries kind of hurt us. But hey, these guys stayed in there and played hard.

If I play opening day, it would be awesome, but if it happens to be two weeks later, I understand that you have to do what's right. Injuries are a part of it, unfortunately.

Nikki is a kid who has battled injuries her whole playing career here. She has never been like, 'I've got to take time off. I've got to be a starter.' Exactly. She just goes in and does what is asked of her, plays and has fun, and I think her best playing days are ahead.
