Hole Quotations | Page 6

The recreational golfer who gives it careful thought will conclude that the favorite golf hole in his life played downhill, gradually or severely, and normally was downwind as well.

We got a good block at the point of attack from Graham. Neal pulled and the safety came up and filled the gap quicker than we expected. That wasn't really the guy Neal was expecting to block but he saw him in the hole and reacted to it and dug him out of there. Matt and Logan (combination-blocked) the tackle up to (middle linebacker Danny) Clark. We didn't quite get Clark blocked, he got over the top, but he wasn't able to get enough on Corey to keep him out.

We just dug ourselves too big of a hole in the first half. In the second half, little mistakes ended up taking the game from us.

We just dug ourselves too big a hole in the first half. Coach (Pearl) puts defense and rebounding on the board before every game, and we haven't been able to do that consistently.

We just dug ourselves in too big a hole in the first half. It's just too far to comeback this time of year.

We just dug ourselves a big hole in the first half, and getting out of the hole was too much. We were never able to make a play to get over the hump. You've got to credit Yelm. They did a good job of controlling the tempo and getting shots.

We kind of put ourselves in a hole of not executing the way we're capable. We had to work a lot harder to get back to where we were at the beginning of the game.

Turnovers killed us. We put ourselves in a hole and we couldn't ever get out of it. We tried everything. They jumped on us early and kept the pressure on.

To hole that putt in front of everyone...I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it, ... This is certainly exciting for me.

You have to position the ball underneath the holes, because the greens are really quick and really good. In order to take advantage of this course, you have to be able to putt aggressive and that means keeping the ball underneath the hole and having uphill putts where you can stay aggressive all the way throughout a round.

You have to have two hands on the ball. I saw a hole there, and I was concentrating on getting those six points. The ball was exposed, and that's a mistake by me. It won't ever happen again. You won't ever come in and talk to me about a fumble that I had ever again.

You guys played hard, ... and it came right down to the last hole, just the way we wanted it to, and your guys did just what you're supposed to do: Three guys birdies the 18th hole to win it.

When I was standing on the first hole this morning, Brett asked me what he thought would win. I said I thought it'd take a 69 to win. It's kinda cool to call it right.

We've put ourselves in a hole ... and right now I don't care what anybody's record is, we can only worry about ourselves. We're just not playing consistent baseball in all four aspects of the game day in and day out.

We've put ourselves in a bit of a hole the past couple of weeks. All these games are a must for us.

We've proven we can play on the road, and this will be a big test for us. We can either take advantage of this opportunity, and be right where we want to be, or dig a bigger hole for ourselves.... But we're running out of time.

What happened today was (Martin) just blew an enormous hole in the fortress of the cable and broadcast monopoly,

What can you say? When you dig a hole too deep, you think you can come back, but then they came right back and made some more big plays.

We spent all our energy trying to dig out of the early hole and we couldn't punch past that six or eight point barrier.

We've been talking about that hole that sometimes you can fall into if you score. You kind of leave yourself open a little bit. They understood it and they were fighting hard to get around it. They just had a little bit of bad luck.

We've been starting slow and waiting for the game to come to us instead of attacking it. You can't dig a hole and expect to come back against a good public school team like Bluffton.

We tried to get one inside on him. We thought we might have had a hole there but he made the adjustment.

We tried to get back into it and play some good defense. Troy hit a couple of shots. We tried to fight back into it but we dug ourselves into a hole by 20 (points) and it was hard to come back from that.

We talked about naming the course Blue Stem Plains and this hole will have the blue-stem grass planted along it.

We talked about it and moved them over a couple steps last night, but we're going to have to do better than that. You have to make adjustments based on who's pitching. If the ball goes through that hole a couple of times, then why don't we just move over so we can stop it?

We just seemed to keep digging a bigger hole for ourselves today. Abilene High hit the ball well, and I'll give them credit for that. There's nothing you can say when they're hitting the ball well. But we had some opportunities we didn't really take hold of.

We just seemed to dig ourselves too big of a hole to climb out of.

We just really read off each other very well, ... Our timing was unreal. When I jumped into a hole and Pierre spun off someone in the corner or dug the puck out, he'd find me and hit me in front of the net. Very rarely when you are a player, every time you get the puck and are open do you actually get it. I felt I was getting it.

We just need to go out there and fight as hard as we can for coach and for ourselves. We are the ones that are going to be putting the ball in the hole and diving on the floor. There are little things that we have to take care of the next couple weeks. I think that we can get it done, and it can still be a great year for us.

When all you had to do was punch a hole in the ground and strike oil, it was easy to have the highest high school dropout rate. But you can't drop out and invent a new microchip. Texas is changing, but the constant is hatred of government, and that's a mistake in the 21st century.

We went back out and collected bags and bags of the lichen, maybe 100 pounds or so. We had three captive elk in Jackson Hole and we brought them to our Laramie lab and began feeding them the lichen.

We had them right where we wanted and the momentum just changed. But it wasn't one of those things where you wanted to crawl into a hole and die.

We had them just where we wanted them. We wanted them running and wanted to get them in that game. They were able to catch some wind (with the timeouts) and that's what kind of slowed us down. We just dug too deep a hole and it was just too hard to get out of.

We got ourselves into a little hole in Daytona. But I have no doubt this team will turn it around this weekend.

We got ourselves into a little bit of a hole in Daytona but I have no doubt that this team will turn it around this weekend. We're taking a car that's already been to victory lane and we think it's going to perform even better this season. Here it's a whole different skill level and handling package and stuff. It takes probably a different skill set or different category of skills at Daytona -- where you position your car or how the air is and how fast your car is, so it's just a lot different.

We got ourselves in a little bit of a hole to start the game. We didn't shoot the ball very well, and we did some things that were uncharacteristic.

We got ourselves in a hole we couldn't dig ourselves out of. But Waverly played one heck of a game.

We got ourselves in a hole and we just couldn't get out of it. We ran into too good of a team tonight to not be able to play with our legs under us and not be able to play with the emotion we need.

We got ourselves in a hole and the game came down to the last at-bat. The girls did a great job of coming back, battling and putting themselves in a position to win the game. We just couldn't get over the hump.

We hit a major drought and I give a lot of credit to their defense. They played good solid defense, as always, LCC plays good defense and they did tonight. It's hard to overcome. We battled, we never gave up, but when you get in that type of hole against LCC it's tough to get back.

We hit a lot of quality shots, but we struggled on a hole you can't struggle on. It's a very demanding hole, and if you hit into the water you're usually not going to make better than a bogey. We lost some shots on that hole, which we just shouldn't do.

We improvised on the spot and I crept behind the defense, found a hole and just stopped and turned around, ... I made eye contact with Gerell, and he found me.

We certainly would've liked to give Tony a Super Bowl ring to fill that 1 percent of the 100 percent hole he has in his heart right now.

We see an enormous opportunity in the mobile market for data services. The biggest hole in the mobile network operator offering is the lack of guaranteed privacy. Users want to control access to and use of their personal information to avoid the type of trouble the theft of credit data is posing on the Internet.

We feel like we dug ourselves a hole to begin with. We had to dig ourselves out. We're tied for first. It's the middle of the season. It doesn't mean anything. We have to keep winning, keep this thing going.

You go in any library in the United States, and you're going to have a wait for the computer lab. I'm a true supporter of the public library system, but with that building, it's not like there's a hole in the roof.

You have to really love both extremes ? recording is really never moving and being in a hole and playing live is moving every second and never stopping. If you love both of those extremes this is like the best job in the world.

We should be looking at this from a surgical point of view. A lot of people who think they would like to repeal the estate tax should put it in the context of fiscal policy. We'll have a huge hole in the federal treasury.

We think that the recent changes to the 11th have properly restored the hole to that which Jones intended.

This win could not have been much bigger. We put ourselves into a hole losing to Jacobs earlier in the year and did not have room for a down game.

We did a better job in the second half of getting into position to stop their offense and came up with some big plays. But we put ourselves into too big of a hole in the first half and couldn't come all the way back. We tried to get some momentum, but they made sure we didn't.

We'd have to convert our hole into a mountain, which would require higher capital costs over the next five years.

We went into the hole by a significant amount, ... We're trying to repave the road so to speak.

We want another year before we record an entire CD. Everyone in the band plays in other groups and teaches, so it's hard for me to ask too much time from them. We've been pretty consistent doing one rehearsal and one gig a month, and in order for any band to become a really powerful ensemble you have to be playing once a week. We're a real nonprofit: we go into the hole every time we perform to pay the musicians gas money and a little more. Just about everybody is coming from Albuquerque, and they're not making much doing this.

Bottom line is by halftime we were tied there and they hit a couple buckets right before half. They jumped on us in a hurry and that's the biggest concern with them. They come out and you look at what they do to teams, they have gigantic first quarters and have them in such a hole that they don't ever recover. But we did a good job of regrouping and responding. I knew if we'd get close there at the half we had a shot to stay with it. You can't give up (that many) points in the first half. That's not the kind of score we wanted.

Blake had a monster game. They were smart and double- and triple-teamed him, but he found ways to get around them and eventually just wore them down. He came through for us, but we just dug ourselves a hole in the third quarter.

Blocking for Coco and seeing him break through the hole gives us a good feeling. We love to block and make things happen.

Big innings defensively have been our nemesis all year long. That (third inning) put us in a hole early and we were not able to catch back up.

Everyone shot a few strokes higher then usual. It was their first time on this course. There is lots of sand and lots of water. Hopefully next time they will know what to expect and they will know what the hardest hole is and how to play it.

Every person has their own black hole inside their head.

Every shot, every hole was a battle. There were only two or three holes out there you could really get after.

Every single hole on this golf course is exceptional. And it's just the layout, wide open, lot of water that makes it enjoyable.

Every month Microsoft releases security patches for its software - and it's often a race against time for companies to roll these patches out across their business before a hacker takes advantage of the vulnerability. A security hole which allows hackers with malicious intentions to run code on Windows or Apple Mac computers is very serious, and all affected users should ensure they have defended their systems.

Every hole out there was tough. I just had to hang on and commit to every shot and I'm very pleased with level par. Tomorrow is another day. Hopefully I can get the same sort of feelings when I go out there.

Every hole on your team cannot be addressed by just going out and acquiring. You have to have some internal growth, too. That has to be a part of it. We have some good, young players on our roster. You have to let your young guys grow.

Every hole is pretty similar. I wish they had used more trees instead of lakes. It's a modern golf course. It's not a bad golf course. I prefer the other one.

As the amount of chlorine and bromine will continue to decline over the next decades, but very slowly, one expects the ozone hole to get smaller and smaller.

At some point, they are going to have to knock a hole in the side of the wall and throw the rotisserie chicken out as you drive by.

At the end I was just trying to get to the hole and get a call. As you can see I didn't get the call. So I was just trying to concentrate and make the shot. I just wanted to be aggressive.

Coming back after being out a year, he was a big part of our team's success. He filled a hole we would have not been able to fill.

Digital sales are finally replacing physical losses. If someone gets a distribution right without paying for it, that blows a hole in the digital marketplace.

Digging yourself a hole is one thing. If you have the character to dig yourself out of it, that's another. I don't think the game was handed to us by any means. The guys really dug deep. That's impressive.

Different situations require different strategies. Every play and situation requires a lot of thought in order to make the right move. I don't think you can do that by saying that if you get Ace and a Jack in middle position that you should always play it all the time. It's very difficult to communicate this stuff in a professorial way, but you can do it in an experiential way. In this video you only see my hole cards and you hear all the thoughts that go through my head when I'm sitting at the table.

Compton Terrace was one of the first 'sheds.' When Jess opened it, there weren't many venues like it. No one thought to dig a hole in the ground and hold concerts outdoors. Now there are 50 or 60 across the country.

Do the Americans want democracy in the Middle East? Do the Americans want the oil wells of Iraq and of Saudi Arabia controlled by regimes which are revolutionary, and which are Islamic fundamentalist? Mr. Bush wants that like he wants a hole in the head.

An ordinary black hole is thought to be the end state of a really massive star's life.

Each individual who sent us messages supports Aggie bonfire. There would be many, many disappointed people (if it stopped). I'm sure there would be a hole in people's hearts.

Erin's improvement is probably mentally. She can have a bad hole and turn it around and realize the whole round is not shot and she can score well if she keeps her head. This year will probably be the toughest for Brittany. As a freshman no one expected anything of her. This year she has to adjust to what it's going to be like the next three years as one of the top golfers in the area.

Florida is just a solid veteran team that was ranked No. 1 earlier this year. We dug ourselves a hole early and they did a good job of getting the much needed three-set win at No. 3. I thought our team fought hard today.

Five of our first six possessions were turnovers. We dug ourselves a hole very, very quickly. It was 10-0 before you knew it. But any time you turn it over 24 times and give up 18 offensive rebounds, it's going to be tough to win on another team's floor.

Every time we play San Antonio, it's always going to be tough. They send two or three people at me. . . . I knew my shot wasn't going down from the outside. I just tried to keep going to the hole and get some fouls.

Every time we got something going they would make a big play. You can't come out against a good team and dig yourself into a hole from the get-go. We were playing from behind for the entire game.

The results were 5 to 5.5 feet of water inside the homes around there, with authorities telling people to go upstairs with an ax and chop a hole in your roof so you could climb out and stand on that roof, waiting to be rescued.

There was a little shock. We looked up there and we were down 9-0. When you get to this point when all the teams are good, you can't put yourself in a hole like that.

There was a little hole there, but why try to force it?

There's still hope. We're not mathematically eliminated. But we're in a pretty good hole now.

There's actually a hole in the insulation where the rats are going in and out.

There's no adjustment you can make for losing someone like Ashley. It wasn't just her skill level, but her experience as a three-year starter that made her valuable. It's left a big hole for us to fill.

The tired and thirsty prospector threw himself down at the edge of the watering hole and started to drink. But then he looked around and saw skulls and bones everywhere. "Uh-oh," he thought. "This watering hole is reserved for skeletons.

I started out pretty good. But that fifth hole is one of the hard ones and I made a poor swing and hit a flare into the lake. I wasn't that upset. It was early in the round and could still make some birdies.

It would have been useful to have had a nomination of a successor prior to Jackson Hole because, in a way, Jackson Hole is a farewell to Chairman Greenspan.

I used to say: ''there is a God-shaped hole in me.'' For a long time I stressed the absence, the hole. Now I find it is the shape which has become more important.

Things are starting to come together. Like I told you guys, it was very important that we got something going before we dug a deep hole for ourselves. It takes an awful lot to come out of that. Slowly, we're starting to do that.

The wise man sits on the hole in his carpet

I've tried to play my best every week, but a win, I suppose, would end a long wait. Today I played about as well as my first two rounds but I just didn't hole many putts.

I've shown there's not going to be a hole in the outfield - although (Thursday) I proved otherwise on that line drive hit to me, ... It's a play I should make. I just didn't make it. I take pride in my defense.

It was two games in a row where we dug ourselves into a hole where we couldn't get ourselves out. We started off slow and played flat in the first half.

It was very important for me to make that putt and I'm very glad that I did. That helped me a lot with momentum, making birdie on the next hole and makes me feel good about my round.
