TRANSCRIPTS
-It's funny, you're talking about mental, you know, you try
to qualify for the US Open, the Byron Nelson, you
were undrafted free agent, walking on to the Cowboys organization.
You're not afraid of challenges. -No -I mean those are-
I mean those are tough things to do. I mean
you're out of college, and you're undrafted. -Yeah. -I mean,
what you think you could do it? I mean- -I
think you have to have a stronger belief in your
self, and a disbelief of others, because anybody who's gotten
to that point where they play a certain sport of
that high level had to almost have this belief that
they can do it, that they're good enough, and I
guarantee they're going through tough times, where people have told
them they weren't, where they have really bad game or
two, or round or two, or situations where they failed
that cue score, or wherever it might be. And, I
think the best one is just- for me, the most
exciting thing about sports is getting better, finding that new
thing. You know, I may have stunk yesterday, not even
get drafted because I couldn't throw the ball as good
as the guys who went, you know, in the first
round, and that was the realistic side of that thing.
But, I also knew 2 weeks later when I found
something with the grip and the throwing motion, and I
was able to do something I wasn't able to do
a month ago. You know, it was A. exciting, B.
I'm passionate about it, and makes me feel like, "Yeah.
They may have done this spot, you know, it's changing."
-So from time- -I'm about to be a little better.
-from the time the draft transpired, you didn't get drafted
to going to tryout, [unk] was you changed something. You
found something. -Well, I'm always- there's never a- if I
ever stop getting better, you know, I'll probably be done,
it's because for that's the funniest part of the sport.
It's trying to improve from year to year, you know,
even month to month in a lot of way. And,
I have to gear back sometimes 'cause I'm always controlling
everything I talked about. I'm always sacrificing; sometimes a drill
or a play to try something I feel that gives
me a better chance to have a faster stroke, stronger
arm, better footwork, to be able to throw off your
back foot into a left drive, went hard to the
sideline or something. And I'll be trying this, and I
[unk] some, and you'll get critiquing film, but it's practicing.
I'm like, "Okay. I know that doesn't work. I can
throw it out." Then, I'm on to the next "Oops,
something works," and incorporate that in your game.
