“In the morning, I reach for the sports page.”

“I've always been the only girl in those environments. It's comfortable for me - I prefer it, actually.”

“I want to know about what makes an athlete tick.”

“There's that initial reticence for some athletes to take you seriously.”

“My mom died when I was 8.”

“When I found out I got this job, I cried, of course - I'm a girly-girl - and then I called my dad, and he cried, too. On so many levels, this is a thrill for me.”

“You mean the fact that Tom Arnold would spend more time with the hair and makeup people than I would?”

“I'm not going to relate to an athlete as a peer.”

“On my morning run, I listen to sports talk radio.”

“I was so afraid that the athletes wouldn't talk to me because I'm a woman.”
