For Ty Willingham, Breaking Up Is Hard To Do

October 24, 2008 by domer.mq

The following is a list of Ty Willingham quotations that we found needed only slight alterations to sound as though they’re from a discussion over a break-up. And we didn’t have to edit some of these…

“What I always try to do is take Tyrone Willingham out of things. It’s not about me.”

“First thing is, as you know baby, this is a very difficult afternoon for me, just a very difficult afternoon.. To say I am disappointed, I think that very much misses the mark, but at the same time, I understand that I didn’t meet your expectations or standards, and when I don’t meet your expectations, it’s time to go.
Today I am no longer your man, and it doesn’t mean that life is over — life will go forward.
My goals have always been to inspire you to be the best you could be. I believe that I have been true to that in my time with you and appreciative of the opportunity and appreciative of what we have done and I am disappointed with what I didn’t do more than anything else.”

“When I think about how I work 8:00 in the morning until 11:30 at night for a stretch that probably runs from August to February, I think it’s not just commitment on my part.”

“No, I’ve never had a bad day. I’ve had bad moments, and sometimes those bad moments will run into another day that you’ll have hurt, pain, et cetera, but it’s still a day. There are so many blessings that Tyrone Willingham has that it’s amazing.”

“Let them see what we can do and what we have done successfully and then give you cures for what we have done incorrectly.”

“I’m not discouraged, but disappointed. … As a matter of fact, there is still a lot of light at the end of the tunnel. We just have to find a way to get to it.”

“I’ve done this before, … But it’s meaningful because there will be many others that will make something of it.”

“Everything gets more difficult. It adds another dimension to our lives.”

“…I didn’t think we lived up to our end of it.”

“How difficult has the year been for me? It would take me too long to tell you.”

“The first thing is, it’s exciting that people care. You never minimize that point in life. But hopefully there and here, I’ve done the right things.”

“We just haven’t made the things happen that we need to have happen. At the wrong times, we’ve made mistakes. We’ve had some wonderful efforts along the way, but effort is not what it’s about. It’s about finishing the task. That’s what we’ve got to do.”

    It’s not me, Ty. It’s you.

    BK, that was perfect. I had the feeling while compiling this list that you’d do a better job with it.

    Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a Ty quote like that.
