Clubs Quotes
There's always going to be people critical, for us this year if we don't win the comp, people say it's failure. People say last year was a failure. All coaches are under pressure, it doesn't matter where you're coaching , I just think the expectation on some clubs is higher than others. We don't profess to be the greatest coaching staff in the world, but we think we've done a reasonable job.

Almost Quotes
It's almost a boilerplate meeting. At the last meeting there was widespread expectation that they would remove their pledge to maintain accommodative policy for 'a considerable period.' But the December employment figures made it very apparent that the job market continues to lag, and most observers have come to the conclusion that the Fed really does need to stay accommodative.
-
Cars Quotes
It's not the government's job to design automobiles. Also, there's a great deal of unrealistic expectation about what fuel-efficient cars can do. If the government really wants to secure reduction in oil consumption for cars, it should just leave gas prices alone. With enough time, consumers will reduce their consumption in response to higher costs.

Hopefully Quotes
It's a lot more pressure this year. There's a lot of expectations and there's a lot of seniors and from Day 1, I think the expectation has been there for us to get back to the state. Hopefully we can get over some of this sickness, these illnesses, and get ourselves back in playing shape.

Attempt Quotes
Dave Andreychuk walked into our locker room four seasons ago and helped us find our way. He helped our young players grow and develop and mature more quickly, and he helped establish an expectation level in terms of expecting to win each and every night through hard work and commitment. ... Having his veteran presence back in our locker room, and his perennial 20-goal contribution on the ice, are huge factors in helping us attempt to repeat as Stanley Cup champions.

Carry Quotes
Consumers are leveraging their future on the expectation that the economy will stay good and that they'll be able to repay these loans without a lot of difficulty, ... In a perfect world, that would be OK, but we know the economy has cycles and eventually it may not be so easy to carry this debt.

Function Quotes
It wasn't about the money and it wasn't about No. 600. It was a function of Sammy's expectation of his own performance. He didn't want to go out there and under-perform like he did last year because it was just too painful for him, and it's just something he doesn't want to go through again.

Approach Quotes
They've set a standard here. They've had enough guys come through that the older guys are able to pass down to the younger guys: 'This is how we do it. This is the approach we take.' That means something. That expectation level is a very powerful thing. He has said that youth might be a factor, but that it won't be an excuse. He has those guys believing that they're going to overcome the issues they have and still win. When they step onto the court, it's not a question of are we going to win? It's a question of how we're going to win. That's what tradition is. They're establishing that here.

Best Quotes
If you're going to walk around and have everybody say you're the best player on our team and the most talented player on our team, then the expectation for you is pretty high. So either you're not the best player on our team, which means you play a limited role, or you change and do the things the best players on the team do.

Comparing Quotes
If you're looking back at last year and comparing it to this year, it's too tough to compare, because it's a very different team, ... Our identity has been four preseason games and two regular season games, and we really haven't executed the way I think we're capable, and to the expectation of our coaches.

Alex Quotes
I honestly think that with our generation - Alex Wang, Prabal Gurung, Jason Wu, Christian Cota, Robert Geller - there's a different expectation of what our behavior should be. People expect designers to be good businesspeople and PR people, and I don't think partying is a part of that persona the way it used to be.

Bankruptcy Quotes
In my judgment a bankruptcy certainly is not precluded from being an ultimate scenario. However, I don't see it on the more immediate horizon. If you are a company of this magnitude ... to a certain degree the banks feel it is in their interest give you more rope and keep you going in the hope and expectation that you'll turn it around. I think that's probably what's going to happen here.

Current Quotes
Clearly, the fact that our current expectation on the second quarter is less than we anticipated ... our recovery is pushed back in time. We do expect the turnaround to be there and be significant and therefore have an improvement in the second half and have good momentum going into 2001.
