Gordy Sheer Quotations

We found out pretty quickly what a nice guy Mark was. In fact, he's still the nicest guy on the World Cup circuit. But back then, he'd catch some good-natured ribbing about it. Luckily for us, he took it well. If Mark had wanted to rip us limb from limb, he probably could've.
