I mean, coming into this season I was just hoping to come back, stay healthy and help the team.

I want to be back every year. If I don't go, I want it to be because someone else just was having a great season. I want it to at least be a close call.

I want to come back in 2017 if things work well.

We'll be back. I promise you that.

I'm grateful that the team allowed me back. I'm looking forward to making it up to them.

We felt like when we went into last year we had a pretty good chance to win the championship from the previous year with the fall we put together. We've got the same everything now, so I think we can come back and be as strong this year.

It's wonderful to be back. Back among the mountains that remind us of our vulnerability, our ultimate lack of control over the world we live in. Mountains that demand humility, and yield so much peace in return.

Everybody I talked to - from my friends to my family and some of the players - really gave me a lot of support from the start. And that certainly made me feel good about trying to come back and be one of the best again.

It was a great time here in the States this year, and definitely I feel like I'm playing well again. I gained a lot of confidence in the last couple of weeks, and I just have to, you know, keep going and keep the momentum now.

I look forward to another good year next year. It would be nice to win, too.
