The Italians are very strong defensively. They showed in Euro 2000 how good defensively they are.

I thought we were aggressive across the board defensively, and you could just see it grow. As the game went along, you could see the confidence grow. It showed in the fourth quarter.

I think the Pistons have such a well rounded team, which is why they're so successful. All you have to do is look at the stats defensively and at their rebounding and scoring.

It actually took me a year to learn how to play running back - to understand what they were doing defensively and then what our guys were doing every single play.

When you play against different people from all walks of life you can't do the same thing against every player defensively or offensively. You have to change up the way you go at a player.

You are not the wind
One summer day
Walking on a sunlit street
I plucked a leaf from a tree.
“Why did you do that? ” she asked.
“Just playing”, I said.
“Don’t harm the trees”, she said.
“They have their own life”.
“But the wind yanks leaves all the time”,
I averred defensively.
She gave me a pensive look.
“But you are not the wind”,
She said.

Why Do You Say I Bring to You Disgust?
Accuse me of anything you want.
But I am not the one,
Poisoning your food.
Polluting the air you breathe.
Destroying your economy.
Removing you from your homes...
Obtained through bad loans,
Condoned by another's greed.
I am not the one...
Taking your employment,
And giving those jobs away...
To those overseas.
I am not the one deceiving your trust.
I am the one who has been honest to you.
Why do you say I bring to you disgust?
Truth has never brought to me an enemy...
That offended my beliefs to protect defensively.

Pay Attention!
We see but all too frequently
Pay little heed to what we see.
We also hear selectively
We function automatically.
Although aware subconsciously
of everything we hear or see
Which poses threats to our safety
We can react instantaneously.
Prepare to act defensively
Responding instinctively
To any thing that seems to be
a threat to our security
Our conscious mind assumes control
With safety as it only goal.

Franks 2000 Tv
Risin above the city, blocking out the noonday sun
It dwarfs the mighty redwoods and it towers over everyone
I still remember when that delivery truck came down our block
What a lucky guy, I hear he got the last one in stock
And the neighbors are just green
They say, thats the biggest screen weve ever seen!
Its franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everbody come and see(franks 2000 tv)
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Thats franks remote control, you can look, but dont touch it, please
cause franks the one in charge and he decides what everybody sees
The pictures crystal clear and everything is magnified
Robert deniros mole has got to be ten feet wide
Everybody in the town
Can hear those 90,000 watts of dolby sound
And Im mighty proud to say
Now I can watch the simpsons from thirty blocks away
On franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everybody come and see (franks 2000 tv)
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everybody come and see (franks 2000 tv)
Im gonna get one of my own real soon
Its like having a drive-in movie in your own living room
Whoa, hey now... hey now na na na now
Hey now... hey now na na now
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everybody come and see (franks 2000 tv)
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Got a two year warranty on parts and labor
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)

2000 Miles
Theres something I need to say
Im not sad youre gone away no way
Wont be calling information
Or waiting at the railway station
You walked out of my front door
I wasnt then but now Im sure
I need to be at least 2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
Had to get me to the church on time
To say that silly I do I do nursery rhyme
Youve been bitching at me for awhile
Say hey now baby dont you cramp my style
Dont go beating me like that
Im glad I wont be coming back
I need to be at least 2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you

What Is It My Love
You hurt me, you use me, you lie
Youre heartless and hateful and cold
You dont care how you make me cry
You must have the last word
And be in control
What is it about you I love
Youre selfish and stubborn and proud
Youre arrogant, boastful and vain
Youre careless and thoughtless and loud
A flirt and a tease
And you cause me such pain
What is it about you I love
What is it, what is it my love
Chorus:
Theres something about you
That I seem to need
I have a hunger you know how to feed
And you satisfy me like nobody else
Those moments of heaven
Are worth all this hell
And I know you love me in your own crazy way
And I know you need me more than you can say
I may be a fool but Ill never give up
cause theres something about you I love
What is it, what is it my love
Chorus:
And theres something about me
That you seem to need
cause you have a hunger I know how to feed
And I satisfy you like nobody else
Those moments of heaven
Are worth all this hell
And I know in my heart that you want to be good
I understand that youre misunderstood
Youre insecure and defensively tough
Theres something about you my love
What is it, what is it my love
Theres something about you
That I seem to need
What is it, what is it my love

I Still Wait
From 50 Euro to 70 Euro,
But i still wait on my dreams from year to year;
And i am like the wild gazelle in the field of love,
But like a strong and a valiant soldier! !
The mighty one has fallen today in front of me,
But i will still wait for my dreams;
And in the name of love i will always be patience.

14 Million Euro In Your Accounts
'E' for Euro and,
'E' for Edward!
'D' for Dollar and,
'D' for Donne!
But, you have 14 Million Euro in your accounts;
And, sa are your friends!
But, this muse of my mind is all about peace.

Ten Euro Note
Ten Euro Note
The old road into town is only used by walkers
now, weird people, who would look out of place
anywhere else and Marian Hyde, who writes
about alternative lifestyles, in the Guardian.
I had found a wallet with a twenty euro note,
photos of a posing nude woman, it belonged to
someone named Carol. I asked around, they all
knew her, a pro who often walked this way.
A handmade and of real leather and on and
impulse I added a ten euro note and wondered
if when I caught up with her she would notice,
or was my motive more self serving?
I met up with Carol at a road side pub gave her
the purse, she opened it counted the money,
said nothing, but she was talking to a footballer
who wanted to be tennis professional.
I walked where I was accosted by a Liverpool
comedian who couldn’t stop telling jokes,
I soon stopped laughing, smiling and listening,
but my disinterest didn’t matter anyway.
Carol came out, joined us, she had bought me
a beer and was in a good mood, the comedian
had fallen asleep, she knew the why of my ten
euro note and I knew of her nude pictures.

The Economy Part 1
The Economy
Burning bed, the mattress, afire; under it I had two thousand Euro,
as banks can go belly up any time bolt their doors and call the law
to keep the screaming multitude at bay.
Too late, my poor man´s saving burnt to ashes. I shall not cry, soon
the euro will be quite valueless when 10.000 is worth ten pence,
and for that I can´t even buy an ice-cream.
I do regret I wasn´t a good consumer didn´t help the economy
by not using credit cards to buy stuff I didn´t need, I have failed
in my duty as citizen and now harvest devastation.
