Young players need freedom of expression to develop as creative players... they should be encouraged to try skills without fear of failure.

Something happens to us all when we experience something as a unit that doesn't occur when we're on our couches or holding our little portable DVD players.

But what I'd really like to tell you is I never dreamed of being in the Hall of Fame. Standing here with all these great players was beyond any of my dreams.

As a coach you can influence the diet of your players. You can point out what is wrong.

I remember my dad who coached football would buy some of his players football shoes when they couldn't afford it.

And you know my dad would show me some things sometimes but the best things that I got to do were to actually see really good players play up close. That gives you an idea of fingering and technique and what not.

I've always been into guitars... we want to put keyboards on but keyboard players don't look cool onstage they just keep their heads down. There has never been a cool keyboard player apart from Elton John.

I don't think there has been enough communication between the players and the tournaments. In one sense it's just as much the players' fault. Players talk between each other and in the locker room about things that can be improved and then when the time comes to talk and really do something about it they stop.

Man coaching is a hard job and it requires a lot of time... I hear stories from coaches who tell me that players call them in the middle of the night not knowing where they parked their car.

You know what I really love? The CD players in a car. How when you put the CD right up by the slot it actually takes it out of your hand like it's hungry. It pulls it in and you feel like it wants more silver discs.
