“The Waterboy” — “It was funny. [I liked] the little man who yells ‘You can do it!’ We’re always saying that. Little Sarah [Robson] on our team is always saying that.”

Kermit the Frog — “He’s the big guy. He’s Kermit, you know? He’s the Muppet everyone looks up to, the Muppet in charge.”

Kraina European Bakery — “I go there for lunch a lot, for the soup and sandwich. I always have the chicken and rice soup, which is really good. It comes in a bread bowl. I know the Kraina man; me and him are buds.”

Alanis Morrissette: “Thank You” — “[‘Thank You’] by Alanis Morrissette — they played that a little too much. I liked it, at least I used to, but they just kept playing and playing it.”

Bathroom fans — “We have two different bathrooms. When I hear the fan, it just drives me crazy.”

I Like the Sprite in You — “I always drink Sprite. I will drink Coke if it’s the only choice. I don’t drink a lot of pop; I drink a lot of water.”

The men of “Top Gun” — “[Tom Cruise] doesn’t look too bad. I like Goose, Iceman, any of them, actually. They’re all pretty good-looking.”

Fight: Rebecca Lobo vs. Luc Longley — “I’d say Rebecca. I have to stick up with her; she’s pretty tough. Actually, neither one is very tough, but I have to stick with her.”
