Some of my favorite quotes:
Ian Dobson: “He’s one of the few Christians I know who aren’t judgmental.”
Ryan Hall: “I just have a hard time seeing Christ being competitive,”

Hall's coach: “He looks like a white Kenyan.”
Meb: "But when I asked her to come she said, ‘No, the man has to come first.’ She is a traditional woman."
His dad also got drafted by the Orioles.
"If I’m running with the midriff, it’ll be the supreme sacrifice.”
