"A lot of days, we come out here and we're like, 'Man, I don't feel like practicing. I don't feel like doing this.' In doing this, you realize that we are cheering up a lot of households.

"There are a lot of people that get appreciation out of life by watching us, so we have to go out there and give everything we have."

It's nice to see when players like Clinton "get it."
