Beaten Quotations | Page 4

We could have and should have beaten them. I think we'll give them a run for their money. Our kids have a lot of heart, and our goalkeeper (Patch Skinner) is playing with a lot of heart at the goal. He's going to give it his all if the players in front of him do. We have just one shot to shock the Silver Division, and we want to do that.

We have won 13 out of 15 matches in the tournament in three years, we are unbeaten at home in seven matches since last November and we have beaten the tries record.

We came out and tried to play our game, but we couldn't seem to make a shot early and they hit everything they threw up there. Maybe if we could have hit a few shots, we could have at least kept it closer, made more of a game of it, but I'm not sure we could have beaten them even then. They are that good.

We'll pick something people know but something that hasn't been beaten to death.

Tried and true, no matter how many times he was beaten and spit on, he kept saying, 'I am a Jeff Davis man,'

We need to feed off the fact that we've beaten them. Home or away, we're going to give our best.

We need to work on our special teams--covering kicks, kicking the ball. That's where we got beaten last year.

We needed to get a big lead and execute to withstand the pressure that was coming. That's the way we've beaten them in the past. But we let one play go into another into another and it just completely got away from us.

We needed this win. This group was beaten up from the last couple games and we needed to get built back up.

We haven't beaten these guys in a while, certainly not here. I'm told they've won 20-something straight games.

We haven't beaten them since I've been here, and they got to the second round since I left. I'm probably no good to anybody.

We haven't beaten them in my three seasons. We were 0-7 against them, so this is special.

We haven't beaten them in at least four years and that could've had something to do with it. We came out sluggish in the first 20 minutes and were lucky it was only a 1-0 game. They had quite a few quality shots and many more shots than we did.

We haven't beaten them in a long time. We need to beat them,

We haven't beaten them in a long time. It felt good to beat them. The law of averages finally caught up. I was glad to get the win, glad for my team.

We haven't beaten Bedford since 2001, the year we both won state. If we would have wrestled a little smarter, we might have gotten them today. The opportunities were there, but we didn't capitalize and Bedford did. I've got to give them credit. They pulled out the wins in key situations.

We haven't beaten a top school this year and this would have been a good win, but we've got a couple more and we've just got to think about those games now.

We haven't beaten a team that was ranked so high by as many points. Usually, they're pretty close games. I think we just played an excellent all-around game. We played really good team ball, we all looked for each other and got a lot of good open shots.

We haven't beaten anyone in the playoffs yet, and that's what we have to do. We've won a lot of big games in the regular season, but we need to win playoff games to get respect.

The pressure is on us right now. We'd hate to lose a game like this especially after not being beaten by them all year.

We are delighted to win because it's the first time we've beaten the Ospreys, but it was a strange day. We were really motivated and we are usually positive and assertive but it wasn't the case early on and we got ourselves into a bit of trouble. But I think huge credit comes out of the way we fought back.

Two years ago when we played them, they were all sophomores. Last year they were huge and they were all juniors. They're all back and they've got the good guard, Jordan Justus, the coach's son. We've beaten them the last two years, but Dallas Huggins (Forks' 6-3 forward) really hurt us.

We were just beaten in every aspect of the game. We were just pounded.

We are really off the beaten track and are so remote that the nearest town is at least 20 miles away.

We played well. If we'd played that well all year, we'd only have one or two losses. That was a very good team. The Ocala Forest coach said if we played like that against them, we'd have beaten them by 25.

We know we can be beaten by any team if we're not focused.

When I got him back in October, they told me he had some minor problems but nothing significant. He had only been beaten one time, which says something about a horse running in that company.

We didn't play revenge. We played to get a lead in the conference championship race. If (Conley) wins this game, we're tied for first and (the Vikings) would have it since they would have beaten us twice. Our goal is to win the conference championship more so than revenge.

We didn't play real well all season and realistically, we should have beaten them twice. They didn't hammer us. We should have beaten them twice. I think Seattle's a pretty hard-nosed, athletic group of guys that will match up pretty well.

We didn't play. None of us. That's embarrassing. Our front-line guys didn't compete with their bench. There was no excuse for our performance. I gave the guys (Thursday) off because of the upcoming schedule and I shouldn't have. As bad as we played, Denver should have beaten us by 50 and they didn't.

We didn't play. None of us. As bad as we played, Denver should have beaten us by 50.

We got off to a slow start. We got it to six at one point, Jason Schneider was on fire for us, hitting three's and scoring in transition. He had a good game on both ends of the floor. We had beaten them by one at Carmel, but down there it was the opposite. We struggled a bit. It wasn't a lack of effort, we played hard. But the hole was too big. It was a disappointing loss, this was a game we felt we could have won.

We beat some teams we hadn't beaten in a long time. They don't own our butts anymore.

Yeah, I guess that's fair, ... And in a weird way my childhood was a great precursor to where I am now. Every year I had to learn how to interact in a new schoolyard, reinventing myself if one character didn't work. In hindsight I can see that it was great actor's training. But it was just the art of survival, really. Trying not to get beaten up in the playground.

We're a very capable team. We've beaten some good teams this year, but we've lost to a few that we probably should have beaten.

Tim ran really well tonight. He beat the No. 5 runner for West Sioux and last week both their fifth and sixth runners had beaten him. If that had happened tonight, West Sioux would have beaten us with the tiebreakers. He really came through for us.

We'd love to be State Champions, but we would have wanted it by winning the game. If it wasn't Hales it might have been Seneca or it might have been somebody else. You don't know who else would have been in that game and maybe we wouldn't have beaten them either.

We definitely had the attitude we could beat them; if we hadn't, we would have got blown out. A lot of our fans thought we could have beaten that team. One more rebound, and we would have.

We definitely look at this as a new season. We knew Montana State had beaten us twice, and our goal was not to let a team beat us three times. We're in that situation again with Northern Arizona. We're looking at this like an NBA series. We're just trying to win a game at a time.

We didn't have our 'A' game today. But even if we'd had our best game, I don't know if we could have beaten them.

We start from the goal out, (and) we've got goaltenders that have both won at the world championships and have both beaten Canada. We're pretty strong and physically savvy on defense, and I think we've got a lot of strength down the middle. We've got a lot of options at the center position, and playmakers on both sides of the puck.

We've both beaten each other at home. I like our chances on a neutral court.

When you are away from home there is absolutely no substitute for experience. We are playing against a team that we have not beaten at Lansdowne Road for eight years.

We want this to be a network across the board. We are not a Mets network. We carry the Mets, but you beat them up if they should be beaten up and you praise them if they should be praised.

We want this officer criminally prosecuted. We saw an unarmed man be beaten on camera who seemed to be cooperating and not resisting arrest so we're outraged and shocked ... It's very unfortunate that after the Rodney King beating we still have rogue officers within the LAPD.

The fact that they are playing with great freedom -- they seem to have a chip on their shoulder while they've been here, talking about respect. I don't think that anyone now could possibly not respect them. It would be interesting to see if they can still say that because, in my mind, they've beaten the No. 1 team (North Carolina) in the country twice so I see them right now as the No. 1 team in the country.

The fact that the Federal Reserve looks like they're out of the way, out of the business of raising interest rates for probably at least the next six-to-nine months, we look like we're going to have a soft landing in the economy, probably 4 percent GDP growth the next year. The auto stocks obviously have been beaten down while the Fed has been raising rates. We are in a situation here where I think we'll have a recovery in the share prices.

The most beaten paths are certainly the surest, but do not hope to start much game on them.

It s funny to see a hatchling like you beaten by the old one.

We picked up a pile of points from the relays. Most of the girls are happy, but some are disappointed they didn't get a chance to come back for the finals (today), especially our 200 free relay team. I don't know if we could have beaten Lafayette (the 200 free relay champion), but I would have liked to have gone up side-by-side and raced them.

Winning solves a lot of problems. We hadn't beaten Middleton since they moved into the Big Eight so that made that win special. It has to be an everyday habit. Winning is a frame of mind.

We like, in energy, Williams Companies, which has been beaten down a little bit in the first quarter because of questions about accounting. But, again, I think they're a very clean company but natural gas pipeline is their business. We think, in the energy area, Exxon, which took a bad hit this week, is probably attractive at this point in time,

We were well and truly beaten last season but the lads will be determined to put the record straight tonight.

We can't really take any comfort from that (the history). Everything starts again from Friday night, and they'll be smarting after getting beaten at home in the last round.

We have been beaten two-nil in this Test series but a lot of positives have come out. We had not competed over five days which cost us, but we had India on the ropes in all three Tests, though the first one was rain-affected. We had not been thrashed.

We have been beaten and had agonizing losses and we've lost games every way imaginable for way too long to get overconfident. We knew we couldn't dig a hole like last year. You know where that's going to get you, in any sport. So to come out clean and efficient is obviously a step in the right direction.

Last year, he'd beat people 6-2 or 6-3, but this year he is trying to pin everybody, put up a lot of points on everybody - being super aggressive.

We knew it was going to be a tough match. I'm really satisfied to have beaten Ivan who is certainly with Roger Federer one of the best players in the world at the moment.

We kind-of circled this week, because we had never beaten Arapahoe and never beaten Ranch,

We're not out of it by any means, but we don't have total control now like we would have if we had beaten Mount Vernon. For all practical purposes, if we lose another, it's over. We've got to take care of business and hope the chips fall in our favor now.

Why didn't I fall for all the vices of young stardom? My dad would have beaten the s--- out of me if I had gone the drug route. I'm not kidding. Plus, I never really felt the need for it. I mean, I'll go out and party. But I've also had the good sense not to even drink too much. I've also seen my friends get into trouble. I will walk up to a friend and say you're drinking way too much.

You have to come out with draws like this sometime -- a year ago we probably would have been beaten by three or four goals.

You have to be disciplined, you have to be tough, and sometimes you have to be a little lucky and hope sometimes he's going to miss a couple of those shots.

This tournament is wide open. Who knows who is going to win? Everybody has beaten everybody. It will be the team that can play their best for three straight games.

Trying to become the greatest dog in the history of the tournament to win a game. A 16 has never beaten a 1.

To think we're going to go up there and it's going to be a walk in the park is wrong. They haven't beaten us all year. They're hungry. They're in our same division. We're banged up right now and we know it's going to be tough up there.

With all these storms, we've really been beaten up lately. The beaches all need to be rejuvenated, and Mother Nature cannot do it on its own. We need sand.

There are probably five or six guys who can win state this year, and I hope I'm one of them. But this gives me a lot of confidence. I hadn't beaten Myers or Rohana in the past year, so beating them on the same day is nice.

You have less of a chance of being murdered, mugged, beaten or robbed here than just about any place in any large city in Texas.

This was a match after a really disappointing loss yesterday. I was pleased with the way the girls bounced back. They knew (Pasquotank) had beaten First Flight. This was a good win for us.

This was a huge win for us. (Hazel Park) has beaten us every year I've coached here, the last five or six years I think.

When you get to this point you always have to play your best game. The teams that have made it this far deserve to be here because they have beaten good teams to get this far.

With cultivation, the New York oyster industry thought it had beaten nature. But the city still didn't take care of its water. London, where oysters once came from the Thames, has a similar story.

With our team this year, it was kind of a struggle for us, everyone knows we're a young team, we're up and down. We've beaten good teams and lost to weaker teams here and there and struggled to find consistency. So it's great that we've come this far.

With our semester break, we were off a little too long. But we had beaten Xavier. It was a good win to go into the break with. We didn't have a bad taste in our mouth. They were excited to come back, and I think it's given us some momentum.

We will have our hands full. Big Walnut is playing well. We hope to continue to play well and improve. Last year we were beaten soundly by them. We beat Liberty (35-34 on Jan. 6) we match up very well with them. Our kids will be enthusiastic. We have a chance to finish as high as third in the league, which says a lot.

We've played twice this year and I haven't beaten her, but I'll just give it my best.

We've played so good here. This week, we could have been beaten (a couple of times), but we kept hanging in there. I don't think that we're that much better than any of the other teams. We've just managed to come through in the clutch.

We've played Amarillo each of the last three years in the tournament and we've never beaten them so that should serve as some motivation for us.

We've been beaten this year, but I didn't think we lost any of those games, but we lost today. It was important for us to get off to a good start today but we didn't do it.

We've been beaten around. We still have to learn to compete every possession for 40 minutes.
