Players Quotes

Eugenie Bouchard
-
From time to time, like many other players, I glance through my own games of earlier years, and return to positions and variations which have gone out of practice. I attempt to restore them, to find new ideas and plans.

This bowl has lived up to all the hype that I heard of it. Coaches...that have been here rave about the hospitality, rave about the venue and all the activities for the players. The people here have been marvelous. The bowl committee has bent over backwards to make sure that our stay is an excellent one. The players have something to do if they choose every day. You couldn't find a better place.

It's not Xs and Os. It's people and character and making great plays, ... It's more of a personal thing. It's the character. It's the fight - because up here most of the guys who get to this level are obviously talented.

Last Saturday morning, the day of the game the Big West tournament final against Long Beach State, a 78-70 victory, I get a call from my dad. My son's wife just had our first granddaughter back north in Walnut Creek, so as soon as the game ended, I had some pizza with the players and went to bed, and the next morning at 5:30, I drove back up to see them, had to go 101 because the Grapevine was closed, and then drove to Stockton for the selection show. I haven't had time to celebrate, but I'll be able to celebrate that every day.

Natural selection may be unconscious but, as Darwin and his successors made clear, it is the opposite of a random force. It can drive changes in an organism in a very linear, per sis tent fashion—as had been observed in the laboratory, in nature, and in simulations such as the one that modeled eye evolution. Denton was wrong about evolution’s being one big lottery. The correct analogy would be a game of darts in which the players cannot see the target. Some darts will find their mark while the majority will miss—a random process. But the rules of the game eliminate all but the best-thrown darts. Because nature tosses an im mense number of darts—the mutation rate in any single gene in an organism will run in the millions—natural selection has plenty of well-targeted darts to choose from, and the march toward new and complex forms is not so difficult to understand, after all. But presenting an accurate meta phor would not have supported an attack on evolution.

The good thing is that a lot of the inexperienced players did really well, Devon Smith and Ryan Hinds with the bat and Tino Best and Fidel Edwards with the ball.

Should we have won more championships, more Super Bowls? Yes, we should have. But I don't think you put that on the head coach. We, as players, have to make that happen, and we didn't make it happen like we should have.
