Joey Rodriguez Quotations

We've survived hurricanes ever since the domestic shrimp industry began. The only thing we haven't been able to survive is the dumping of imported shrimp.

I think some of us came in overconfident, thinking we could just walk on the court and win. In the final four, it's not like that.

I think just to come out here and be able to get a win, that's incredible in itself. This is a tough place to play and the kids did a great job of just staying with it.

We hope they'll take into consideration our situation. We've had our own tsunami.

When you have a big crowd and the music is going, warm-up is a great time.

This is tremendous. This Odessa team's playing real well and to come out here and win 2-1, that's just awesome.

It was interesting. I just smiled and shot it.

It's the straw that broke the camel's back for some of them. If you're somebody who was already down to the last thread of survival, just trying to keep the bills paid, this will leave you flat out.

You've got families displaced out of heritages and livelihoods. It's the only thing they've known. How each individual story plays out, God only knows.
