    Famous quotes by Mike Morris:

    "Actually for this time of year, it has been a little bit warmer than usual,"
    "The poor guy just came on board,"
    "Whether that's a suspension, whether that's booting someone off the team, he has to take decisive action. It's an absolute, rock-bottom, moral and ethical kind of thing. When it happens on your watch, you've got to deal with it."
    "She's an outstanding player, obviously. I really think she stepped up down the stretch. We tried some different things. She made great plays down the stretch."
    "That's the way we play. We just try to keep the pressure on and make them commit turnovers so we can get easy baskets."
    "I want to end my season with a bang. I want a championship."
    "We wanted to get an early jump, and we did."
    "The kids have a really nice flat drag strip here. It's nice."
    "It is hard. A lot of guys are fighting for the same spots and it might be from the same teams, so it is kind of hard."
    "We study the pitcher. That's how I knew what was coming -- first-pitch fastball, that's all he was throwing."

    The Joker

    by: Mike Myers

    Some people call me the Space Cowboy
    Yeah
    Some call me the Gagster of Love
    Some people call me Maurice
    Because I speak of the pompitous of love
    [Chorus]
    'Cause I'm a picker
    I'm a grinner
    I'm a lover
    And I'm a Sinner
    I play my music in the sun
    I'm a joker
    I'm a smoker
    I'm a midnight toker
    I get my lovin' on the run
    He's a picker
    He's a grinner
    He's a lover
    He's a sinner
    He plays his music in the sun
    I'm a joker
    I'm a smoker
    I'm a misnight toker
