My parents or babysitters were always willing to take me to basketball camps. I remember how competitive my dad was. As a coach, if you win, it's a good night. If not, it was a long week ahead of us. When he came home, you always knew what kind of day it had been.
Some people say there are two types of women, coaches' wives and non-coaches' wives.
You have to be a special woman, there's no doubt, to be married to a coach. My mother is the most compassionate, genuinely caring person I ever met. That's why she's in the field that she's in,because she genuinely cares about kids. She's a leader, the strongest woman I've ever met. I'll never forget sitting on our fireplace after hockey practice, my mom taking care of me.
