Transcript

00:00Do you ever regret giving us that line about always winning in your second season?

00:06My view has always been when you ask the question, you answer it. I wasn't making anything up.

00:11I was asked a question, I answered that question.

00:15Now, people have sort of used it for their own purposes in suggesting I'm making a bold claim.

00:24But I wasn't, I was stating a fact.

00:26Now, if that doesn't happen this year, then I can't say that anymore if I'm asked next year, can I?

00:31But what am I supposed to say?

00:33Well, yes, I always win one in the second year.

00:35But, well, I have in the past everywhere I've been, but here it won't happen.

00:40Is that what people want us to hear?

00:42I don't have an issue with that.

00:44I mean, I think, like I said, people can twist these things and use them.

00:47And you know what?

00:49Maybe we defy all the odds and I do win something.

00:52You know what people will say?

00:53Oh, you know, wasn't it great that he made such a bold claim?

00:56And people just use it the way they want to, depending on the circumstances.

00:59I'll always answer things the way I feel comfortable in answering them.

01:03I'm really comfortable.

01:05I'm proud of the fact that, you know, wherever I've been, I've won things.

01:08I think that's something that I wouldn't be sitting here if I didn't.

01:12Whether I win something in my second year here, time will tell.
