Of all the things people have taught me regarding life lessons or anything that would benefit me, I don't think anything helped me learn more about life than football. You go through so many different things: adversity, how to handle adversity, how to handle success, how to lead, how to be a teammate, how to communicate.

“Of all the people I've played sports with, Andrew is always there for you. He helps you through adversity and he's never going to bad-mouth you.”

“Were hopeful they're going to hear the case and not cancel the hearing. If we're going to get an adverse hearing, we'd rather get that sooner than later.”

“If there's any potential for (negative) impact, there'll be ample ability and signals that will be sent ahead of time to make sure that we don't adversely impact the environment.”

Adversity is a mirage. People, situations, and relationships sometimes change for the worst but inevitably clear a path for far better replacements. The continued journey will always find bliss.

Often we may even smile or laugh at adversity, but all people share the same passions. They are merely manifest differently according to one's culture and conditioning.

“I haven't heard anyone say the World Baseball Classic has adversely affected sales. It's almost like we're going in parallel universes.”

True freedom is in striving through adversities to accomplish all noble things that need to be done so that we may be free from any blame in the end!

“We believe that the Legislature's current interest in evaluating coal-fired generation in Idaho may be accomplished without the adverse consequences that could result from the legislation.”

“Our guys overcame adversity with meet management and finished the last event in total darkness. It was a very nice way to start off our conference season.”
