Really, throughout my career, what I've done is taken teams with bad records and with every situation I've made them better.
I was a late bloomer. I tried out for the football team, and I got locked off the field. That's how I wound up in drama.
The biggest scandal I was ever involved in was - in high school, at a basketball game, I shot and scored for the other team.
I've been around enough to know what it takes to get a team to reach its potential, and I want players who want to reach their potential.
You throw batting practice, you warm up pitchers, you sit and cheer. You do whatever you have to do to stay on the team.

We'll take what the other team gives us. We'll scratch where it itches.

I wake up at about 9 a.m., and have a few hours of school or time to relax. Then, I have practice at 2:30 p.m. with my team.
I think this can be a championship team. But we do have to take it one game at a time. You can't look at the end of the road before you get the next foot in.
Certain people who care about me a lot have said 'You don't play the game, and if you don't play the game, you don't get picked for the team all the time.
Sometimes the hardest thing to do is to trust your team. It's a lesson I've had to relearn quite a few times.
I think trust is primarily built through relationships, and it's important because it's the foundational currency that a leader has with his team or his followers.
Scientist 1: Einstein WAS right! Team Leader: Einstein was PROBABLY one of them!
