You know, the other fact, too, Boomer, in those years, that's how coaches coached.

You know, I played under Jack Parker at Boston University, and Jack was intense and challenged you every single day.

And Herb was the same way.

He pushed you and pushed you.

But the two things I've always said to people about a coach, if you don't trust your coach and if you don't respect your coach, you're in trouble.

And we respected her and we trusted her.

And this is what he was going to do in order for us to be successful.

He was going to drive us.

He was going to make us believe.

And he pushed us and pushed us and challenged us.

But we understood that's the way it's going to be.

I'm not going to quit.

You can yell at me all you want.

I'm only going to deal with you for a couple of hours.

And as he said many times, there's a method to my madness.

And when the games ended and we won an Olympic gold medal, you sit back and go, wow, he was right.

Everything that he did, all the buttons he pushed were dead on.

It better be up.

I got 60 people coming to my golf club today for a party.

Thanks, guys.
