Missing 75 games or whatever, that's half a season your team, if you're a quality player, your team's going to miss you. I think it's a positive step for the union. Unfortunately, you can't make everyone happy. Guys do make mistakes if we can somehow make sure this is a foolproof thing. We want to make sure guys know what they're being busted for.

Miss Garland's figure resembles the giant-economy-size tube of toothpaste in girls' bathrooms: Squeezed intemperately at all points, it acquires a shape that defies definition by the most resourceful solid geometrician.

Miss Copley, you're not going to like any of this, ... Your stay is too short. It's designed for punishment. Period.

Miss Ciccone (Madonna's given name) struts in this courtroom and thinks she's the star. Her problem is she comes in here and can't stop acting.

Miss America is a perfect fit for Country Music Television, and we hope last night was step one in a long relationship.

Miranda hit the three free throws, and they go down and miss an easy shot to end the half. That was a pretty big swing. An eight-point lead at that point in the game, with the way things were going, was pretty nice.

Millie ... lived to 3-1/2-years-old and ... taught me more about living than any person or experience could ever teach me because she overcame so many odds. She died of heart failure in the middle of the night. It was the biggest loss of my life. Then these girls came along right after Miss Millie died and they helped to start healing that big old hole in my heart.

Millie desperately wants to be president but never wins the election. Ginger Breadhouse who is Miss Perfect beats her out every time, ... On the outside Millie acts very secure, but on the inside she is a mess - she has an alcohol problem and cant understand why they wont allow alcohol on the (library) premises.

Mine didn't even rhyme, ... But I loved him. He was a great man. I miss him. Put that in, will you.

Mr. Menezes had access to better information than the public did about Argentina. He knew the company was going to miss analysts' earnings expectations.

Much of the time these ... sexual assaults will go unreported because of the stigma that still prevails. As a result, these women might also miss that window of opportunity to access medical care.

Motor racing is going to miss a phenomenal race driver and I'm going to miss a good friend. I think I will learn a lot with Sam. He is an experienced driver even though he is young. He's been fast at a lot of tracks where we haven't done well so I hope to learn from him.

(McLeod) knows how to compete. He may miss a decision or might miss a shot, but he's always going to compete. He's not going to drop his head and say, 'Can't be done.' I've never seen him do that.

Max played well. He always serves good and didn't miss many volleys. Sometimes you don't feel you're on the court against him. It can go by so quickly, it's hard to find a rhythm.

My kids miss me when I'm away, but I don't mind living out of a suitcase. The U.K., U.S., France, Germany, Iraq... it's such a thrill meeting people of different cultures, learning about and from them. It's changed my perception about life, humanity and spirituality.

My life is all the richer for having known him, ... I will miss his genuine friendship.

My first year, he'd miss tons of practices and still come out and play good.

My first thought was, 'Just don't miss him.

One of the things that you generally see with the older guys is the injuries start to take their toll on them and they miss practice and that kind of affects their impact on the team, whereas for Rob, injury still isn't a factor for him.

One player is not bigger than the team. A some point during the season, we've pretty much had every one of our starters miss time or miss games and we've been fine. It's unfortunate, the timing of some of our injuries but that's the way basketball goes. We have confidence in each other.

One play did something to turn it around. We're all over that thing, and we miss an opportunity to make a play. They go down and score, and it just steamrolled.

One of the things I miss most about the U.K. is political TV, and I have one of those little gadgets, which means I can download British programmes illegally - that's why it's a guilty pleasure.

One of the things that helped us in the second and third game is that we didn't miss as many serves.

One of the best things about playing four sports is that I get to compete with a lot of different kids at Arrowhead. If you just play basketball, you're with the same guys all year long. By playing all the sports, I don't get burned out on one sport, either. It's been a lot of fun. I'm going to miss it a lot when it ends.

Obviously, we're going to miss him (Glenn). But at the same time we have to move on. That's how we operate here.

Obviously, we didn't hit our spots today. When you miss as badly as we missed, you see what can happen. We just couldn't get the ball where wanted to.

Obviously, we both didn't play very well, ... I can't speak for him, but as I said, I had a two-way miss and couldn't find a fairway that's 300 yards wide. If you're hitting it both ways, it's tough to play.

Obviously when you can't contribute the way you want to and you miss extended periods of time, you feel like you didn't help the other 24 guys out there.

Obviously, we welcome the handouts given by the minister, particularly as far as income tax is concerned and also as far as the tax and retirement funds are concerned. I think what the budget did miss firstly in respect to creating incentives for the private sector to actually come and invest in this country. There was nothing and here I refer specifically to rates of corporate taxation. There was no direct incentive to the private sector to employ people.

Obviously, you're going to miss the school play. My daughter scored her first goal in soccer, which you know, if you miss that, it pulls at your heart strings. The upside is we have an extraordinary life.

Obviously, you don't want to miss out on that. It helps manage the financial risk.

October gave a party; The leaves by hundreds came - The Chestnuts, Oaks, and Maples, And leaves of every name. The Sunshine spread a carpet, And everything was grand, Miss Weather led the dancing, Professor Wind the band.

Of course I miss my arm and my legs and stuff but I don't dwell on it or get upset about anything. Just going to do what I need to do to be myself and be happy.

Of course I miss it, there?s nothing like the adrenaline rush of coaching on Tuesday and Friday nights. But I also sleep a lot better on Tuesdays and Fridays now.

Of course I don't miss the snow, the dirty air, the poverty, crime etc. The longer I'm away from it, the harder it seems to be to go back.

None of this has registered yet. It's all just shock. I'm numb. I loved Miss Annie like a mother. What a way to bring in the new year.

No one has talked to me about anything than just day-to-day. The thing for me is I really miss my kids.

Non-profit work has been a great experience for me for over 30 years and I will miss the notion of training young people to manage our future,

My concern is that inventories are so low, some businesses will actually miss sales through stock-outs.

My dad was a big part of our boxing careers. A lot of great memories. We're all really going to miss him.

Music's at its best when it has a purpose. In the days of 'Rock Around the Clock' and 'Good Golly, Miss Molly,' the purpose was, like, 'We should be allowed to do this.' We certainly haven't had to go out of our way to find a purpose now.

More than half the states that will miss the voting-equipment deadline will have signed contracts with vendors.

My family traveled a lot. For a while we even lived in a trailer and traveled from campground to campground. If we got to eat at the Cheesecake Factory, it was the highlight of our whole year! But I don't miss having to share a bathroom with seven people or having powdered milk with my cereal. It was so nasty.

No I don't miss fighting, I still got my wits about me and there are a lot of people who do it and get beat up, and I don't want to be one of them, I have children to raise.

No parent wants to miss bonding with their child and watching their child grow. You want to be available for your kid during critical life issues and special events.

Oakdale looked great in the first quarter. They came out and didn't miss a shot. But once we were able to set our press up, we made them turn the ball over. The press took over in the second quarter.

Numerous times we've had no one show up after the hour. Students need to be on time. They miss their education if they're not at school on time.

Obviously, we are disappointed that Jeff will miss the game at Providence, but the rule as stated in the rule book is very clear. Other players will have to step up and make up for his absence and I have complete confidence that will happen.

Obviously, I'm going to miss Joe a lot. He wanted to try something else. What can you say? You wish him the best.

Obviously, our free throws were a big thing. What happens is that when you miss one or two early, it becomes a mental thing. That happened tonight.

Obviously, Ole Miss came to Tuscaloosa and won. Our players have a lot of respect for how good they can be.

Obviously, Edge is a great player. We'd miss him, but we understand. It's hard to replace a guy like that. If it happens, it remains to be seen if his backup (Dominic Rhodes) can do the job.

Nobody who owns the stock for a long-term investment is going to sell over a $60 million miss

Nobody wants to miss part of Spring Training. Not only do you have to get your arm in shape, but you have to get a feel for your delivery and feel for your release point and I think that's probably where he felt a little naked heading into the season. He just didn't have the innings the other guys had.

Nobody's going to miss those 15 plays. There's plenty of things they could do if they wanted to.

No doubt in my mind. I had the best view, ... Obviously, it landed on the other side, but it was hooking. He's human, and they're going to miss calls. It's unfortunate, though, because I think that would've been a big run.

Rex was a big part of our organization, and we really miss him. This is our way to honor his memory. We have a great field of cars for all of the divisions.

Right now, his main strength is he can play all three infield positions and two outfield positions. That's what's going to make him valuable to our team. If somebody needs a day off or goes down, he can slide right in there, pick up some at-bats and not miss a beat.

Right now, I miss her. I really miss my angel. That's what's keeping me going right now. Putting my life together so I can be with her.

Rico brings it physically and he will not miss a practice. He's so versatile that last year he was first-team all-league as a wide receiver. He'll run by people, run through people. There's not a lot that he can't do.

Rich and Mike kind of shot themselves in the foot by getting in trouble. We sure will miss this place, especially the no-smoking.

Peyton would tell you that, too. Eli is a big, good-looking kid who can throw the ball well. The thing that separates Peyton is his work ethic and how he prepares himself. Eli went to Ole Miss and did pretty darn well without the best cast around him. I think he'll do just fine. He's just a very good athlete who can throw the ball extremely well.

Percentages are relative to what's going on out on the court, and if we miss an easy shot, our kids try to make up for it on the defensive end.

Police are a stoic breed. Often they take their lumps and don't make a big deal about it. They limp around for a couple of days. But no one's charged, and they don't miss any work.

Poor nutrition and illness cause students to miss school more often and to be less prepared to learn when they attend. Within the disadvantaged home, parents often have relationships with their children that are emotionally and physically, less healthy. These unhealthy relationships are reinforced in part by economic pressures that induce conflicts between parents and children.

My uncle was a father of four and friends to many in San Jacinto and Hemet. Albert was such a love. We will miss him always.

On Game Day, the Grove, a shaded 11-acre park in the middle of the Ole Miss campus, is filled with medieval-style tents as many tailgaters hire students or locals to set up as early as 6 a.m.,

One thing I'll miss is his sense of humor, however warped it may be.

Nick doesn't miss putts like that. I had my hat in my hand. I thought it was over. He missed.

Nobody likes to miss a number. But I think on balance we're in better shape than most people give us credit for.

No. 3 is a great athlete. He sees the field so well and he's so quick, he really makes people miss him.

Ninety-eight percent of the singing I did was private singing - it was in the shower, at the dishwasher, driving my car, singing with the radio, whatever. I can't do any of that now. I wish I could. I don't miss performing, particularly, but I miss singing.

Nineteen and 15 and she?s a junior. She was able to do most of her damage on the offensive end. She?d miss a shot, she?d tip it back, she?d put it up again or kick it out for an open look outside.

On Peyton's situation, I kind of misspoke. We did an X-ray at the stadium after the game and the doctors were satisfied with it. I just knew that he had been examined and was fine. I assumed it was an MRI and said that, told one of our writers. It was not an MRI, but he has been examined. He's fine and won't miss any time,

On the offensive end, if we couldn't get into our sets and execute we were going to have problems. I don't know what (Gardner) shot in the first half but they were smoking. They were hot. You just keep thinking you can hold on and they'll cool down a little bit, but they didn't miss and we played catch-up the whole night.

One of the keys to us is sometimes we have some great baskets and have a real good pace to how we play on offense, and then it seems to slow down. When the offense goes into one of those droughts, we're not moving it up the floor. Not necessarily quick shooting, but just the pace. We're always better when we have a quicker pace. ... Brian (Thornton) being able to run, and Brandon Cole or Will (Caudle) being able to run when Brian's out. ... Make or miss on their end, we want to be able to get the ball up the court.

One of the rationales is that if you can have a number of divisions then occasionally one of them can miss a beat and the company as a whole can still grow strongly.

One of the first gardens I did outside the family was for the designer Hattie Carnegie. I was 23 then, and I went to her salon, but could not afford any of her dresses myself, though I loved them. Miss Carnegie suggested I do a garden in exchange for a coat and dress, and so I designed and planted a garden for her.

I was impressed with our depth. We didn't miss a beat. There's no big holes in (the lineup). That's the key for us.

I was greeted as Miss Lamarr in dimly lit restaurants. Personally, I liked the idea of escaping from all that bland, blonde innocence and thought the whole thing was very funny, but I don't think Hedy found the comparisons very amusing.

I was fortunate to have teachers that were flexible with allowing me to miss more class than I was supposed to be able to, for the sake of being able to tour.

I was really starting to miss home and I'm really glad to be here.

I was surprised. I didn't see that coming. We're going to miss him. It was just a great treat every time you played Pittsburgh and watched Mario play. We're going to miss him as a player, but I'm sure he's going to be around the game.

I was serving very good. After I get the break in the third set, for sure, I feel more confident. Especially the last game of the match I really feel like I will not miss the opportunity to win because I had a few great serves at the time.

I was the better player for almost two sets, but after that point, he didn't miss many first serves and he's wasn't missing much of anything. You have to hit winners against him all the time.

I wouldn't say you're going out there pressing trying to get three hits in every at-bat, because that's definitely not the case. But I think you're almost behind the eight ball when you miss that much time. When you get out there, you don't really feel like you would during Spring Training or during the season when you've played all the games.

I wouldn't say we didn't miss a beat, it's not the same with those guys out. But we all had confidence in those guys that they would play well ... and those guys played great.

I wouldn't miss this for anything. We've done this in all kinds of weather, and it doesn't matter what the conditions are, the kids are going to get their Christmas.

I wish he wasn't out for the season, but it doesn't bother me that he'll miss our game. He's such a great competitor and such a good person. You hate to see anything like that happen to such a great kid.

I wish Coach Barnes was here for the rest of my career because he's a very good coach and a very good man. I'm going to miss him. But, you know, I just look at this as another learning experience. This is another obstacle and I've just got to get over it.

I would do a Byrds tour or a Byrds record in a minute. I miss that band now. I've tried to convince Roger over and over to do it, but he's not interested. Music isn't something you can legislate into being.

I worked with Scooter very closely. I will miss him as a colleague and as a friend.

I grew up listening to Switchfoot. I love Switchfoot; they're a great band. John Foreman is awesome. I really dig mainstream pop music, but I also have a heart for jazz and rock. Oh! Coldplay! I cannot miss Coldplay! I think 'Fix You' is one of the most brilliantly written songs ever. It's, like, my favorite song of all time.

If we don't start getting seeds to the farmers now, they will miss the September harvest and we will have to support them until April 2001.

If we get into (injuries), then it's like we're setting a scene for not doing well. We believe in the players and we trust the players we put in the game. ? When you start talking about how badly you miss certain guys, then you're doing a disservice to those kids battling hard for you, as if what they're giving you isn't enough.

If we get anywhere close to the forecast, its going to be negative for bonds, cause that market has depended on a miss on payrolls in recent months.

If we push this over the side (of the ledge) there's a good chance we could miss these little artifacts.

If we play like that at any other point in the tournament, it's going to be a much closer game. Against good teams, you can't miss easy baskets like that.

If we're not going forward with an investment in this type of technology, we could very easily miss an opportunity to defeat a terrorist with a dirty bomb or a radiological device.

If we don't change perspectives, we will miss the train.
