Asked Quotes
I was so proud of Rodney Carney today. It would be so easy for Rodney to play for himself right now. It would easy for him to just go out and do it himself. I grabbed Rodney and said 'you are defending and we will try to give you some shots. Rodney said I am fine. At one point in the second half I asked if you want me to run something to get you going and he said I am fine. He defended and blocked shots today. Four blocks shows how far he has come and what he means to the team.

Brought Quotes
I have all the respect in the world for Rodney Harrison. I told him that when we brought him here, and he's made great contributions to this team. There's no question about it. Unfortunately, he had a tough setback last weekend and so did the team, but that's the way it is. We're playing San Diego this week. Unfortunately, he won't be with us. I wish he was, but he's not.

Altering Quotes
We talk about it everyday. Whenever we get out of our guard play, we look to Derek and Rodney because they control what we do. It's not even about points. It's about controlling the boards, altering shots and all the things they do that you don't see in the stats. That's why we're successful.

Art Quotes
Janet has been in the art world for many, many years. She has certainly worked with galleries, but the idea of exhibiting in a home furnishings store, which is so in keeping with what she's doing in her paintings, is a wonderful complement and fresh approach, a twist on the exhibit world. At Rodney Hunter, we specialize in teak wood furniture, so her warm tones enliven our pieces, and our furniture, as elegant as it is, elevates her work.

Across Quotes
Rodney is a headhunter. He's a free safety. I think he is ... one of those guys who is going to come down and hit the running back in the mouth, knock a tight end out, knock a receiver out. He's one of the guys that, when you are coming across the middle, he's going to hit you, so you have to concentrate.
-
Bowl Quotes
I think he's a great player. I can't speak for Brad, but I think if it would be me, it'd be motivation. He's taken three different teams to the playoffs, one to the Super Bowl, and he's been to the Pro Bowl on two different teams. At some point, even Rodney Dangerfield gets some respect.
-
Almost Quotes
When you win an award like that during the conference season, it usually means your team has won both games and the player has played very well in winning those games. So I almost look at the Player of the Week award as a team award when it is handed out during the conference season. For that, I'm sure Rodney and our team is very appreciative.

Athletic Quotes
We saw some guys at the (Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) Media Day -- Rodney (Hughes) and Vernon (Edwards) -- and we talked. There are no ill feelings. I'm looking forward to seeing them. I'm thinking about giving a chest bump to Larry Summers. He and I used to do that all the time.
-
Couple Quotes
It was really pretty wild, especially since we were down by 15 points at halftime. We just played better defense in the second half. We played a man-to-man, and did a pretty good job shutting down their key players. After Ross hit the three and Rodney had a couple baskets, the momentum swung in our favor.
-
Chad Quotes
I'm not sure they're at our level, and I'm saying that because of what we had. They've got Chad and they've got Rudi. We had Eddie Brown, Tim McGee, Rodney Holman and Cris to stretch the defense. Then I could go into the slot and go downfield. Here, I'm not sure they've got that type of receiver out of backfield to get downfield because I ran routes just like a receiver.
-
Alive Quotes
If Rodney King had obeyed the orders clearly given and had laid down in a "prone position" on the night of his famous encounter with Los Angeles police, 58 people would be alive today, $16 billion would be circulating in the economy and four dedicated LAPD officers who were working to the book that night would not have been forced to endure two trials (the first had acquitted them) and had their careers destroyed to appease the liberal conscience. But liberals had to make their point.
-
Leader Quotes
I played with Rodney, I know what a leader he is, ... It's not only the physical things he does. It's the leadership, the mental toughness, what he imparts to his teammates. I know they've been able to put in a lot of subs over the years and not miss anything, but a player like Rodney is something special.

Community Quotes
I had a wonderful experience recently in anticipation of the second Rodney King verdict where I decided to do a letter to the community about how I really felt. It's times such as that, that I feel that I'm connecting. And there are other times I'm shocked by what I see and what I discover. And when I'm shocked by it, I think, God, I'm losing it, that I don't really understand what's going on out there.
