There's a myth people have about New Orleans that make them fear to come, just like what happened in New York after 9/11. Everyone thinks the city is under water - when it's not - just like the media kept portraying the scene of NYC as that piece of skeleton steel rising out of the pit of the World Trade Center, when the simple message is that New Orleans, just like New York City, is ready, willing, and anxious for tourists to come back.

I felt I was ready last week. It's just a matter of getting an opportunity to get out there. After that first hit you're ready to go. That's the way it always is. I'm anxious to get back out there and do what I love to do - and that's play ball.

I feel like we've been waiting for this day a long time. We're anxious to get on the floor and hit our peak performance because we haven't done that yet. We feel like it's our weekend. I'm as comfortable with this team's chances of winning a national title as any other team we've had.

I was anxious all night. I wouldn't mind coaching in a game like that every Friday except it would shorten my life by a considerable number of years.

We've been looking for signs of this since October. People have been waiting to hear this and now that they have, they will be anxious to buy stocks.

I guess I was always a ham, and I was anxious to try doing different things. I started doing impressions to make friends at school. I would do them during recess. Maybe some of the kids thought I was being weird, but everyone seemed to have a good time.

We wanted to get out there and run, kinda push the tempo. We were just a little too anxious in forcing plays, we had a lot of turnovers.

I wasn't used to the conditions and...I had to kind of gather myself. When I won the second set I was really relaxed and then I just got a little too anxious in the third and was missing a few shots.

We want to continue the success we had in indoor. We are definitely ready to be outdoors and anxious to get on the new track.

I think as players we are kind of anxious to see what our role is as well.
