“A guy is walking along the edge of the Grand Canyon and he falls off. He's hurtling down hundreds of feet to certain death and he looks up and grabs this twig, and it breaks his fall. He heaves a sigh of relief, and then, all of a sudden, he sees the roots coming loose. He looks up to the sky and says, "God, why me? I'm a good person. I've taken care of my family. I've paid all my taxes, I've worked all my life. Why me?" And this thunderous voice says, "Son, there's just something about you that I don't like."”
Bill Clinton
“You know, you walk into this place, it's not like walking into Cincinnati or Montreal. This is a Grand Slam. You know, this is what you play for. This is what tennis is all about. Yeah, not many people will remember what happened in Montreal or Cincinnati if you go out and win this tournament.”
Pete Sampras
“A three-run lead in the Grand Canyon with that club is not a safe lead. But our guys, when they had to, made terrific pitches.”
Mike Scioscia
“The amazing thing is, I was getting walked intentionally with second and third and he was hitting grand slams the last two weeks of the season.”
Cliff Floyd
“I had a walk-off grand slam in high school against Royal, but it is definitely a little bit more special to do it in college. I just needed a base hit to win the game, but obviously a home run is a little more dramatic.”
Cody Cipriano
“Our defense has been elevating the whole tournament, and that's what we've been emphasizing. Grand Rapids has some guys who can hit the shot outside, and penetrate and score inside. We knew we'd have to get after them hard.”
Chuck Tolo
“If I did take away Silverstone and a British Grand Prix, I'd be seen as a bad guy but that wouldn't bother me.”
