Dave Jones Quotations

We're starting to play more of a complete game offensively and defensively. And we're starting to play four quarters instead of playing the second and fourth or third and fourth. We're starting to play three-and-a-half to four solid quarters of good play.

We were hoping to have some more schools show up, but they just didn't want to come. I don't understand it.

Rhys is having treatment and we hope he will be back in contention for Southampton.

Right before my first match (assistant coach John) Cooley told me he felt everyone else looked dead, so he told me to go out there and set the pace. So I tried to keep everything out of mind and went out there to wrestle my match.

I got upset with them at halftime because we weren't doing what we talked about. We were not attacking the zone. We were trying to attack it from outside, but whenever we got it inside, we were OK.

I don't know what they are playing at. They are just making the boy unsettled, and they keep upsetting him. I find Bolton's behavior and what they are doing scandalous. They should stop messing around. The situation is becoming a bit annoying.

Because of the circumstances, I found myself in down at Southampton, I have nothing but total respect for the people down there.

He was totally engulfed backs, arms, legs. He was completely covered.

He did a real good job. I'm quite comfortable with these guys. It's the relay that makes it, not individual members.

He could have done anything else, but he decided to come out for track. I'm proud I got to be his coach.

I think it's a great idea. If you carry a weapon, you're going to use a weapon, that's as simple as it gets.

I think it's an advantage (having two matches). The guys with the first-round bye get to rest, maybe get a little tight and nervous. But I feel having that first match gets me to relax a little, and then I can come out strong.

Reckless driving is operating a vehicle in a speed or manner likely to endanger other drivers.

I think his best chance for a state title is in the long jump. The 100 is going to be awfully tough. Those are some fast kids. Anything can happen. He's fast.

The acquisition of Jungle Labs represents another meaningful step forward in our strategy of becoming a larger and more important supplier of specialty pet products. Jungle Labs has a strong track record of innovative product development and marketing in water and fish care and its line of products in this high growth, high margin niche complements our existing Tetra, Marineland, ASI and Perfecto aquatics product mix nicely. This acquisition will be a positive addition to Spectrum Brands' leading market share position in the global aquatics marketplace.

I would like to keep him but it's complicated. At the moment we only pay a certain amount of his wages and if Leeds want the full whack, we can't do it.

We were able to deliver on our bottom line commitments despite a tough consumer spending environment and significant inflationary pressures.

We had no answer for Carter. She was just dominant throughout. We tried everything. She had a heck of a senior night.

We haven't had that lately. It was strange territory. That's the first time I've had both of them in awhile, and if we get the ball inside, the outside game is that much better.

We are actively seeking to prevent these kind of things from falling into the hands of people who have no legitimate reason for owning them. It is against the law to own or sell them. We will investigate the information passed to us by the Manchester Evening News.

The points target at the start of the season was 52 points because that we felt was the safety mark.

We're learning. It's my first year, too, and they're learning me. Combined, I knew it would take about a half a year and we're starting to see some positive results.

We battled back in the fourth quarter. In the third quarter they outscored us and that's been the theme of our season. We dig ourselves a bigger hole. We keep coming out flat.

We raised expectations and just fell short. I can't fault the players for their effort and application and now it's my job to bring in better players to help those who are staying with us.

We saw how we want to play. Eventually we would like our program to be where Bellefonte is and to play that type of basketball with ball movement and court spacing and rebounding and shooting.

We'll have to wait for the results of the scan, but if he does not make it then it gives someone else a chance,

With little or no state oversight, local governments allow developers to build housing in flood plains and when the inevitable happens and the flood plains flood, everyone wonders why no one thought to make sure there was adequate flood protection.

And when an opportunity arises the person that is given it has to make sure he takes it.

Are we tired? Yes. But we've played the same number of games as them. When they got their noses in front it increased their energy levels and seemed to drain ours.

Every year, there are people who drive into the back of our plows. Motorists who tailgate a plow can find themselves lost in a snow cloud. They can't see the road or the plow in front of them in time to stop.

The state's current approach to development in flood plains is a recipe for a Katrina-type disaster.

(The team title) was mentioned in practice. We want to go out and win it, get the second one. Most of us feel we can do it, too.

Reading are up and maybe they'll be on the pop celebrating for a few weeks. No matter what, though, it's a game we need to win.

Our snow fighting team is out in force when a storm hits, working long hours to keep our highways in safe winter driving condition. That means motorists are likely to come upon snowplows and other large equipment moving slowly on the roadway at some point this winter.

The more closely you can match the donor, the more successful the blood transfusion is.

Devastating. It was one of those things where you don't want to believe it's true, and it wasn't so much for me and the hockey team. You don't want to believe it's true for him because he's a great kid.

As far as the city of Havre hooking us on, I haven't heard a word about it. To be very truthful, I'm upset that it's all going around and I know nothing about it. There has been nothing said about this at all.

This fall, when Phase Two is ongoing, the contractor will have to accommodate high water any way he chooses.

They stung us so quickly. It would be hard for anybody to focus.

Amanda and Brittany controlled the inside in the second half, limiting Huntingdon to only one shot on their second-half possessions.

They must think that by upping their offer the club will just accept it and let him go. But the boy is our player, and he will be our player.

There was no way I was going to get up at 3 a.m. to drive. They would not have performed at their best, and it would have been a waste of time.

There will be an inquest as there was last year when we went up, and as there was the year before when we didn't go up,

It's exactly what we needed. We've been playing real well.

It was a tough game between two good sides and two very strong teams. Sometimes you just need that break and Palace got it on Saturday.

It's the worst system in the world to have multi-balls and just use the nearest one. When a home team score suddenly all the balls go missing.

It's great to hear. It's a big day for the club are we're doing everything possible to attract families.

It's certainly no surprise to me, what Tony has done there. I'm a good friend of his, I know he's a winner. He took three points off me here in our own back yard and he knows I'll be smarting from that. We'll have to go there and be at our best.

It was nice to come back at this stadium and I thank the fans for the reception they gave me but I'd rather had the three points and been booed.

It was a hard-earned win. If people put their bodies on the line, then you earn that little bit of luck and that's what we did.

They were shooting NBA 3-pointers, and there's not much we can do about that. It's tough, because they're constantly moving and setting screens for each other. And if you don't stay with them, they get an easy shot. It's hard to defend. We've got to play them in another week, but I don't know what we'll do. We'll come up with some scheme, I think.

The lad is having treatment and I won't even assess his situation until later this week. I will talk to medical staff then and see how he is progressing.

I'm just delighted for Alan. The goal will give him a huge injection of confidence.

I only saw him before the game. But I haven't got a problem with Rupert and I've wished him all the best.

If you look at the number of accidents out there you can always find something that could have been done to prevent it.

I promised him at the state meet if he ran a good hard 400 he wouldn't have to do it. I don't think he plans on doing it anyway. He was just doing it to help us with points.

You could see in the other competitors' faces there was no way they were going to top that. It was over.

This is a great group of kids. If ever a group was meant to play, this group is it.
