“Okay, here it is, your choice... it's simple, her or me, and I'm sure she is really great. But Derek, I love you, in a really, really big 'pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window', unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me.”
Meredith Grey
“I don't think we should count Derek out right now. He's a fighter and one of the leaders of this team.”
Chad Hedrick
“Don't count Derek out. He's a fighter. He's one of the leaders of this team.”
“He is our Derek Jeter and he's our Mariano Rivera all in one. He's our closer. I think he's a lot underappreciated in this league.”
Shaun O'Hara
“The first game was interesting. We had a four-run lead and squandered it, but Daly puts up zeros, Derek gets the big hit and Steven (Wright) closes it. Steven had to get his work in and 25 pitches was just right.”
Mike Trapasso
“Most pitchers have one pitch to strike out batters. Derek has three.”
Jeff Messer
“It's a real feather in Coach Allen's hat to get a kid like Derek Miller. In my opinion, Derek is the best football player in the Kansas City metro area.”
