Love it or leave it — The Ricky Stanzi Explanation
Iowa quarterback Ricky Stanzi celebrates the Hawkeyes win over Georgia Tech in the Orange Bowl on Tuesday, Jan. 5, 2010, at Land Shark Stadium in Miami. (Liz Martin/Gazette)
IOWA CITY — It was a softball question thrown at the Orange Bowl-winning quarterback. And Ricky Stanzi sent it into orbit.
“Of course, there’s nothing better than being American,” the Iowa quarterback said to Fox Sports reporter Chris Myers after Iowa’s 24-14 victory over Georgia Tech. “. . . If you don’t love it, leave it. USA, No. 1.”
And on it went into Hawkeye lore. The question and answer still live on YouTube, with one particular take sitting with 84,000 views.
Friday, Stanzi went through the thought process in his on-the-spot answer.
“I understand now what he was trying to get at, but at the time, I thought, wow, this is kind of a deep question, I’m not sure how to answer it,” the Iowa senior said. “So, I figured I’d put a little spin on it and get patriotic with it. We’re all patriotic on this team, especially the guys I live with.”
Senior fullback Brett Morse is one of Stanzi’s roommates.
“He says that all the time. We always say, ‘These colors don’t run,’ ‘If you don’t love it, leave it, USA No. 1,’ ” Stanzi said. “So, naturally, that was first thing that popped in my head. On a day-to-day basis, it’s the first thing I hear when I wake up.”
Stanzi pointed at Morse after answering Myers’ question.
“That’s something we’ve said to each other, a lot,” Stanzi said. “If you don’t love it, leave it. It kind of just naturally rolled off.
“All he had to say was America, from there, alright, we’ll just take it and talk about what really matters.”
In April, I asked Ferentz what he thought about it. He questioned the question.
“I thought it was kind of amusing,” Ferentz said with a laugh
Myers’ question didn’t amuse Ferentz, however.
It went a little like this, “I know you’re from middle America. Do you feel like sometimes you’re representing something more than a conference, maybe an entire group of American citizens out there?”
“I think it was a fair answer to a question,” Ferentz said. “I’m still trying to figure out why they have people on the sidelines. If you’re talking about making cuts in budgets, that would be a good place to start.”
America's Quarterback Ricky Stanzi.
He needs to be addressed like this for every press conference, interview, and introduction.
That's his story and he's sticking to it.
Germany beat Australia 4-0 match, the German team game usually have a bench empty seats, on which stood a No. 1 jersey belonging to Encke. Hanqiao Sheng said that this is the World Cup, the most touching scenes. Encke is the goalkeeper of the German team, but last November he was feeling melancholy, threw themselves in front.

Netherlands and Denmark the game, if not that bizarre own goal, maybe it is is 0:0? But fans are not excited by own goal, no matter how beautiful oolong, will not make people active in the dull up, but added to an embarrassment.
http://www.fashioniphone.com
Finally, the truth. Such a simple explanation. I want the time back I spent looking for a Ricky Bobby clip. Still a genius answer and a huge fan of Ferentz budget cut comment. Angerer was the guy to qoute last year.
LOL!
I thought Ricky Bobby, too, but he's never done anything on the dinner prayer, the funniest part of that movie, IMO.
Screen to the upcoming match between Italy and Paraguay live, on-site rain as columns. Moderator Shaosheng Yi forecast to be a draw on the grounds that Italy and Paraguay are the strongest group F, two teams will power and aim at the weak teams in the same group of New Zealand and Slovakia. Han Qiaosheng immediate criticism: "You This is typical of the inflow of Chinese low-level non-fans mentality." He boldly predicted that if the game will be no rain, then the score is 0-0, if it rains, then Italy will win 1-0 http://www.fashioniphone.com
I love how the reporter kind of did a nervous/relieved laugh after Ricky answered the question because after he asked it he was probably like, “that was the stupidest question I have ever asked”
I always was under the impression that he didn't understand the question and I guess that was the right impression.
He didn't know what to make of it, ignored it and made it his own.
That's what you want out of your QB, thinking on his feet with internet speed.
Well it's kind of funny now but I was embarrassed for him initially.
It didn't help that they ridiculed him on the radio here in Omaha. Schick and Nick STILL play the clip.
It was a stupid question. Great answer though. I am proud to be an Americanzi! USA #1!

Cute videos and a most detailed review I have seen about Flip. Last year, I was quite excited to launch a video cast and trying to find a mini cam suits my needs. In the end of the day I bought a Sanyo Xacti HD1000 for more professional stuff but still looking for a tiny device I can carry around.I got my MinoHD for Christmas and the video is not a jittery or pixelated on mine, regardless of the lighting conditions. Would it be possible the firmware on your MinoHD is an older version?
Well I truly liked studying it. This post provided by you is very constructive for accurate planning.

That guy just looks dangerous. I doubt that six years will rehabilitate him, probably nothing will. Too bad one of Paris’ bodyguards didn’t see him with a knife, then we probably wouldn’t even have to try him, just bury him.
I had seen past articles that they have been caught doing the same thing before and of course they promised it would never happen again…. and they lie over and over. It is all propaganda
I think Paris Hilton was done up to look like Marilyn Monroe for her new fragrance TEASE. So of course they would have her look a bit older for the photo shoot.
