Aspect Quotes
I tried to polish my whole game and be more consistent with the bat. Just get my mind right, mostly. I worked on my mental side of the game. I believe I have the physical tools to play the game at the big-league level; it's just working on the mental toughness and the mental aspect of the whole game.

Ball Quotes
It's tough to do both, but (Sumrall) has done a good job in the classroom, he's been through spring ball before and he's established the fact that he's one of the guys (in football) and he loves track. It's a great cross training thing and it helps us. I like his toughness and his competitiveness.

Add Quotes
Daccus should give us some toughness running the ball that we didn't have last week, ... Our team right now is looking for some tough guys who love to compete and maybe hate losing. Daccus is a tough guy, and he'll add a lot to our offense blocking, running the ball and maybe challenging our offensive linemen to get their butts going, things like that. We're glad to have him back.

Certain Quotes
I wanted this movie to feel as much as possible like a cousin of Smokey and the Bandit, and Burt Reynolds had that sort of rakish good looks. He did his own stunts, he considered himself sort of a ladies' man. I feel like Knoxville has a number of those qualities. He's done so much really funny stuff, he's Southern, he's got a certain toughness to him.

Basketball Quotes
It was a great basketball game. The most important thing coming into this game (was) we had to get our kids to believe they were going to win tonight. I think we had a great week of preparation this week. Our kids were really focused. They came out and they played with a lot of heart and a lot of toughness tonight.

Bounce Quotes
It takes a lot of toughness and resilience to come through that. As a captain, it's doubly hard to stay tuned in and to remain tactically astute. You have to be very strong minded. To come through all that happened in the first Test and straight away to bounce back must have been hard on everyone. It's very easy when you're doing well. It's very easy to fix things if you can shut yourself away and work on it. But when something has such a big build-up and such profile, it speaks volumes for what the team has achieved.

Ball Quotes
Shavlik is a little bit stronger than people think. He can rebound the ball in traffic. Offensively, he can put the ball down on the floor. Once he gets a 15- or 16-foot jump shot, I think he can be an effective player. I think people discredit his toughness. I think as he plays a little bit more, the toughness will come out, the ball skills will come out. Right now, he?s got to work on that jump shot.

Bigger Quotes
I'm going to evaluate this weekend because if we lost that game (against Arizona), we'd be 1-3 and the roof would be falling in back home. But I thought we gained so much here. I learned that they have much bigger toughness than I have. They're all still standing, and I think that tells a little bit about their character.

Appearance Quotes
In Israel, I think I have the image of an 'Ashkenazi woman' as a stereotype. Someone once told me that I look like a deodorant commercial. But my appearance is misleading; I can be emotionally aggressive, too, and in 'Law and Order,' I once played a murderer. I see no limitations. I see both my toughness and the softness.

Believe Quotes
If you don't really play hard, you have no chance. Can we be the kind of defensive team San Antonio or Detroit are? No. I don't think we have the personnel. Can we be a good defensive team? Yes. I really believe we've lacked the commitment in terms of effort and the toughness in terms of having a mind-set and a trust.

Amount Quotes
I don't think there is anybody in the country that has done a better coaching job than Monte. His kids showed an unbelievable amount of toughness and resiliency with what they have had to deal with off the court and their injury troubles. They finished the year playing really well and competed like they always do.

Believe Quotes
I am very pleased to introduce this signing class. It is, and will continue to be, the focus of this organization to build a fast, strong, tough and disciplined football team that consistently competes for championships.

Act Quotes
I do envision championship basketball and when you talk about championship basketball, you talk about a good defensive team, you talk about a good offensive team and you talk about a team that really has its act together once they step on the floor. Our goal is to dominate the east and we must continue to dominate the east so that we can have another return to the NBA Finals. And I think mentally we have to become a tougher basketball team. I think mental toughness is going to be the thing that makes us champions.

The mental toughness of this team, that will win away games, ... You go into a city or stadium where nobody is cheering for you and all odds are against you, the veterans are going to make a big difference. We've played so many away games in our careers, we kind of know how to handle them.
