Ricky Williams

We've averaging 61 points per game, but the thing that makes me the proudest about this team is its defense. We've held teams to an average of 31 points per game. A lot of players get to play (as a result of big leads), and that means the kids on the bench are doing a good job defensively as well.

Paul Stamm

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.

William Morgan

With all the maps on one DVD, it's a very simple process which takes seconds rather than fiddling about with multiple CD-ROMs which hold less data.

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.

Greg Nossaman

When we were down nine on Thursday night, we knew Brandon would be able to play Saturday, so we said, let's try to (win this) so he can play another game. That was motivational.

We've always played well here. We're a good club, and I think we're trying to show we can play with other good clubs. We're certainly not intimidated.

Pat Ambrose

When we were patient on offense and got a good shot, we did well. When we played too fast and didn't get a good shot, we let Zion back into the game. Benny did a real nice job for us. He wanted to win.

Jeff Halpern

When we weren't in the box, I thought we played pretty well.

Dick Umile

When we were down 2-0 tonight, we were playing pretty well. The third goal was not very well played by us. The kid was out front all by himself. We dug ourselves a hole, that?s the disappointing part.

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.

Hugh Johnson

When it appears as though the governors of the Federal Reserve believe that the end of the rate increases is near, that's very good news for investors. A lack of ambiguity from the Federal Reserve is always a little bit of a shocker.

Phil Forest

We're spending more time on our computers. Even though television viewing is up, there is still a percentage that they're losing. If they put programs on the Internet, they can capture more of the audience. That's one of the key factors driving the networks.

Mitch Kupchak

We're sorry to have to let Slava go even though it was unlikely that he would've been able to play the rest of the season because of his injury. He's been a positive addition to us for six years, including helping us win two championships. We thank him for his contributions and wish him well.

We're going to give this one to Doc, even though he's not here with us. We know he's going through some tough times right now, but from the coaching staff to the players, we want to send this out for him.

Jim Spears

What they're doing is, they're bringing in fresh air and trying to pump out the bad air, and that's constant in the air filtration system, so, in this particular case, even though there are high levels, as long as that fresh air is being pumped in, you never know where you might find it.

James Allen

What they knew about the body is quite striking, though they did not always understand it.

Jack Handey

Whenever someone asks me to define love, I usually think for a minute, then I spin around and pin the guy's arm behind his back. NOW who's asking the questions? - Deep Thoughts (Saturday Night Live)

Michael Morgan

When we did things right tonight, we looked pretty good. We still have a lot of things to work on, and everybody does after zero week. I think Howard played well and made some good decisions. Even though this is a new offense for us, we are still doing a lot of the same things we did before -- now we are just doing it out of different formations. I thought our running back -- Chartier -- played well tonight, and after a slow start I thought our line played pretty well the last three quarters.

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.

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.

Bill Griffith

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

We've asked the city to continue its consideration of the project until April. We want time to look at our options with regard to Holiday House specifically and our overall employee housing needs in general. At this point, we want to go back and revisit our full employee housing goals.

Clint Hurdle

We've always wanted to improve our bullpen, but until this year we weren't able to get the pieces we wanted. It's been frustrating. . . . It's not easy to spend the bulk of the game battling for a lead and then seeing it get away. . . . Now we have some depth. We have some quality arms.

Jimmy Kimmel

When I was on the radio, I used to be able to go a lot farther than I can now. You don't really remember until you're on the radio again, sometimes in your old radio station and sitting with the guys you used to work with and you go, 'Oh yeah, I can't say these things anymore. I'm handcuffed.'

Susan Vreeland

When I was nine, my great grandfather, a landscape painter, taught me to mix colors. With his strong hand surrounding my small one, he guided the brush until a calla lily appeared as if by magic on a page of textured watercolor paper.

Deborah Copaken Kogan

When it comes down to it, I believe that, having made the decision to bring children into the world, I owe it to them to be as present as I can in their daily lives and to try my best to stay alive until they've made it through to adulthood.

Dan Edwards

When I was a kid, Henryetta was 'town' to me. I helped build the Indian Nation Turnpike and spent many hours laboring in this area. I think Henryetta is a great place to be and I plan to stay here until I retire.

Richard White

When I was a kid growing up and my dad owned the drug store, it stopped dead on Labor Day. That was it. People left, and you didn't see them again until Memorial Day. There was no Columbus Day, no Thanksgiving, no New Year's Day. There was none of that.

Greg Garrison

We've battled adversity all year and have been in those kind of situations. Our kids know they're never out of a game. But it looked pretty bleak there for a bit.

Tony Haynes

We've averaged 20-plus wins a year for the last five years, five straight NCAA tournaments. Kids graduate. Hey, that's a successful program.

Clint Hurdle

We've always wanted to improve our bullpen, but until this year we weren't able to get the pieces we wanted. It's been frustrating. . . . It's not easy to spend the bulk of the game battling for a lead and then seeing it get away. . . . Now we have some depth. We have some quality arms.

Shawn McDowell

We've always thought this senior class had the physical skills, it was a matter of them jelling together as a unit. A year can make a big difference both mentally and physically and the kids have really matured.

Jim Hendry

We've always had a lot of respect for him. He pitched so well against us for Houston. He went out there last year with some discomfort and gutted out his starts in Boston. He's a winning-type guy. He's a winning pitcher who, when he's out there, he wins you games.

Sean Cotter

We've always felt Heidi was a real good hitter, and she's definitely a feared hitter in the conference, but it just seemed like she just wasn't able to put it together for long stretches. And this year she's just been in a really good place, I think, both physically and mentally.

Ray Preston

When we were talking to him, he didn't want to commit to how long. So I said, 'Try a year and see how it works out.' Fortunately he's been there since.

John Tesh

When I was playing piano, it was like, 'I'm going to write a song using all the white keys.' My music director, who knew my jazz background, suggested I try big-band music, so we spent a year experimenting with it in concert, and the audience reaction was really good.

Mike Curb

When I was lieutenant governor, Jerry Brown was governor and you might recall that he spent just about a year of my term out of the state.
