Mike Doherty

What they've done here is incredible. They kept the Frank Lloyd Wright facade. And they kept a great number of guest rooms the same. They redid everything, of course, but when they built hotels in 1956 they built big guest rooms. They kept the concrete block and just put in the new retro stuff. Even when I was here the historical society was constantly visiting, wanting to know what we were doing and wanting to make sure we kept the place intact.

What he does for our team, he does it better than most guys I've been around at this level. He has a knack for playing that outside-linebacker position.

We regained the lead and regained the momentum and we had some pretty good looks. Even with the lead at 23-22, we had some good looks. We just couldn't get it to fall.

Brian Bishop

We're being approached by four parties to do Hurricane Katrina relief. If we could get the government to commit to a reasonable number of buildings, like 5,000, which is a drop in the bucket as to what they need, then we would build a plant (in the storm-affected area) at our own expense, and we would hire and train people from Louisiana and Mississippi to operate it.

What they've done is remarkable. But at what point in time do you keep responding when you have to keep putting in new players? They've done it wonderfully over the last four years, but there comes a time where it has to catch up with you, even with a team as great as this one.

We've always had little receivers, but a big fast guy is always better than a little fast guy.

When we were really struggling, you didn't see guys get two hits in a game. Any time someone got one hit, one walk -- nobody could put it together.

Tim Salmon

When we were coming up, it was kind of a retooling thing and we were filling in with whatever you could fill in with. (Now) you've got a good ownership that's not only going to allow those guys to play, but they're going to bring in the pieces and make it competitive and allow them to win.

When we went to talk to those families, we found out that one of the families was originally from Herrin, so we were able to quickly place them in one of our vacant homes in Herrin. Our agency covers 24 counties, and if we don't have a house available, we can still help a family by making referrals.

Greg Harrison

When we went in there, they really started blitzing everybody. They saw Morelli as an inexperienced, second-string quarterback and they brought the house against us. But as a whole, I thought we picked it up well. We had a couple, little miscues, but nothing that can't be corrected.

Natalie Cole

When I was old enough to walk home alone from school, I loved seeing our house from a distance. It sat on the corner of South Muirfield Road and West 4th Street and had this proud, majestic look. But I rarely went through the front door. The back was more dramatic.

Scott Walker

We've always had the rallying cry of, 'Hey, nobody out there thinks we can do it,' and that was fun. We've never really had a star player, and there's never really been a case of 'So-and-so didn't produce and that's why we're losing.' So it might take a little adjustment, but I think we're definitely a lot better team with him.

Odell Thurman

When we were coming into the (scouting) combine, they asked who was the best back you played against, and I said (Williams) the whole time. He's going to be great. You look at him, and you might not think he's all that strong. But he's a power runner. It's the style he plays.

Kyle Whittingham

When we went to 12 games, everybody kind of went into panic mode because scheduling a game is not quite as easy as you might think. Usually, these games are scheduled five, six, seven years in advance.

When we went through it, we had nowhere to turn, no one to talk to who had a similar experience. Small, rural churches usually have no money and little or no insurance to rebuild. So we helped form an organization that gives guidance to pastors whose churches have burned.

John Cohen

Tomorrow, we'll get a big hug going, and we'll talk about past times, and then the first pitch will be thrown, and he won't see John Cohen, he'll see the enemy. I won't see Pat McMahon, I'll see a team that we're trying to beat. That happens a lot in this league.

Tyrone Marshall

We're more aware of each other now. Guys are looking out for each other. We're doing more things together. That definitely relieves some of the stress and heartache that we've been having over the past couple of weeks. Being able to come out here and play soccer is a step in the right direction. Doug is still in our minds and our hearts.

Aaron Bender

We're missing some of the veteran studs we had in lineup in years past, but we're looking forward to another good season.

Bill Lovette

We're making this investment to help meet continued, strong demand for refrigerated and pre-cooked bacon.

For example, we've invested almost $15 million in our deli meats plant in Buffalo, N.Y., over the past two years.

Jerry Cantrell

We're making it up as we go along. It's what we always did in the past. We're writing the book as we live it. We feel confident that we will have a good time and that it's something that will live up to the same level. It's an exploratory thing, and we're just having fun with it. We'd like to go out and play for the people that supported us and love the music as much as we have all these years. We want to celebrate what we did and the memory of our friend.

Rick Anderson

We're making changes because the bookstore has struggled to make a profit or break even over the past few years. We have begun affiliating our bookstore with Columbia as they are the eighth largest in the country and know how to run a retail company.

Jonathan Meyers

Tom runs a very tight ship. You do not turn up late and you don't muck around - he's strict with himself and everyone he works with.

Richard Kaplan

We're standing out there for four days, and we're observing some runs that never came and some that were 20 to 50 minutes late, ... That is clearly unacceptable.

Greg Hawk

We're going to score some runs this year, you can count on that. Timmy is a big key to our club, but we have a really potent offense overall so we'll be quite all right. We've got a good freshman core and the big hitters to drive them home so I like our chances. We are going to compete for one the top spots in our league and before this year is over, they'll know the names of these guys.

Tony Oliva

We're going to have a guy hit 30 home runs this year.

Marvin Avery

We're going to do what we always do. We'll play smart on defense. They're a very athletic team, but everyone knows Division 3 North runs through Lynn Tech.

Tim Worrell

What a game -- we should win that game. Three runs in the ninth, and the starting pitching has been good. We just didn't get it done, and almost every pitch they hit was right down the middle.

David Yalof

What history dictates is even relatively weak presidents have often gone for home runs with nominees,

Trevor Hohns

What he's done over here (in Pakistan) didn't count for too much. It was good for him to get over here and play some cricket basically and get some runs under the belt.

Jim Parker

What happens when (the machine) runs out, it puts itself out of service. We have to reset it,

Paul Johnston

We've apparently struck a reasonable middle ground and will continue to try to meet the needs of all the authorized purposes.

Phil Garner

What hurt was, we struck out for five of the last six outs, ... We didn't put the ball in play, and we had a guy on third base. And that's what hurt us.

Susan Campbell

The other thing that's always struck me is that the kids in very little day care had scores that were very low,

Bill White

We believe that the most reasonable interpretation that you'll be able to draw from the evidence is that Courtney had come into the room and had seen this struggle and had turned around to go back to the back of the house and was struck once in the head and fell.

Terry Pendleton

We struck up a conversation right then like we'd known each other for years. Since then, it'd been that way.

We spent many years in the same league with Tulane and Southern Miss and still consider them members of our family, ... Many of our fans visited New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast while we were competing against those schools and have been struck by the images of the devastation in those areas. I hope this can help.

Laura Mvula

My aunt is the director of the acapella group Black Voices. I was so struck by them as a child. They sang with such passion and conviction. By the time I turned 15, I had plucked up the courage to ask if I could join the group. Acapella is a different discipline from singing with an accompaniment - it is much more exposed.

Lauren Herring

When I was little, I used to feel a lot of pressure. Before matches, I'd want to throw up. But now, I've adapted. I do get homesick sometimes, but I have to remember why I am there and what I have to do to go pro.

Plaxico Burress

When I was in Pittsbugh, I was basically worried about how many times the ball would be thrown my way,

David M. Kelley

When I was in high school, I lettered in math. The only thing that was important was football. There were two other letters that were awarded each year. One was in math and one was in science. I got the math one. But you didn't put it on a letter sweater and wear it around because they'd be throwing you in a wastebasket upside down on your head.

Cody Franson

When it come down to it on most nights it is about the player and the teams that work the hardest and not so much a chess match of strategy. Composure is key to playing defense and you cannot allow others to get under your skin and throw you off your game.

Ned Yost

Tomo was very crisp today. He was sharp, he was throwing his fastball as hard as he has all year.

Angela Ruggiero

We're mentally, physically, and emotionally exhausted right now. The stress -- we had players waking up and throwing up.

Don Marshall

We're so excited to be able to provide this kind of experience for both the community and visitors to the Chattanooga area. Not only is it the world's largest single screen outdoor theater, but where else can you park your car, throw a Frisbee for a little while and then relax and watch a movie? It's going to be incredible!

Bill Griffith

We're going to throw the football. We're hoping our team speed helps us get past those 300-pounders.

We've always said spring moisture would make or break our water forecasts.

Yvonne Williams

When I was a child, I'd go down to see the water after a storm, just to see it settling down, for reassurance,

Bill Brennan

We remain concerned for the health of the public, and again urge people to heed the signs the city posted warning them to stay out of waters that may be contaminated.

Jeff Swanagan

We respect the water, and use the water. We don't just let it go down the drain. We treat this water like gold. The only water loss is evaporation.

John Marshall

We're going to talk to the voters about the issues Colorado cares about. We don't begrudge him bringing in Eastern Bloc friends, but I suspect that the cowboys down at the coffeehouse in Delta are more interested what the candidates have to say about water and health care than whether or not the president of Poland is backing you.

Paul Hawley

We're going to shoot the video in Spain, and there'll be water involved -- and I'm going to leave it at that.

Dennis Phillips

We're going to pay user fees for water and sewer and it's my understanding the burden of extension lines will be on the shoulders of the developers, not the city,
