Derek Parker Quotations

We are really working well together as a team and moving the ball around. It was a good team effort.

We always play hard on defense. I wouldn't want to play us. We are undefeated in league, and we are feeling good.

Our defense really stepped up at the end. It made it easier on (coach Roger Walters') heart.

Defense has carried us this whole way - that is what we do best. Our offense comes off of our defense.

They're 24/7, they have lots of equipment, lots of lighting, lots of needs for air conditioning, lots of needs for air being pushed through the building.

There's a nursing shortage (and) a shortage in most of the technical professions. So if you can keep people, it's a lot less expensive than if you're trying to recruit them. And you recruit them by providing a better work environment.

I try to focus, but sometimes they are so loud I just have to look up at them. They are great. I love our fans. They give us a lot of energy.
