Ed McClanahan Quotations

We were down two (points) late in the game and we were right in it, but we just couldn't get over the hump and we couldn't seem to get any defensive stops in the fourth quarter.

Myers decided to take over the first three quarters. He was pretty tough to stop.

The teams are pretty evenly matched. What it came down to is they got more balanced scoring and they got the shots they needed in the fourth quarter to pull away from us and get the win.

Wagner is a handful to stop for most teams in our league. He's 6-foot-3, but his arms seem like they go forever, and he knows how to use them.

We've struggled a little bit with losing our focus at times. But we didn't do that in the first half tonight. We clicked on all cylinders.

I would stand there and read them. Well, not read them; I would look at them.

We lost a little of that focus in the second half, but we have a lot of young players. We had a 20-point lead go down to 10 a couple of times, but we were OK.

At last, after almost fifty years in the hopper, the most famous unpublished novel in America is in print. Who Shot the Water Buffalo? is a splendid story of comradeship in a time and place of constant peril, but it's Babbs's irrepressible exuberance and vast, affectionate good humor that make the story go. I love this novel.

I think it is a good idea. I come to Maysville every chance I get. It's a good town. I plan to read something about Maysville.

I was immediately struck by the fact that he had all these literary quarterlies that you couldn't get anywhere else.
