    There was a period of time after the Salt Lake Olympics when I told him there had to be a new coach and new location. Words were exchanged. Deep conversation was exchanged. I told him we were in a coffin and about to be buried into the ground. I should say a happy ending would be the world title. On his good day he's a world champion, no problem. Who knows if we'll get to that day? He has to want it. It can't be me wanting it more than him. I don't know if we'll get to that day.
