Riley Wallace

With the leadership and the confidence he has in his teammates and the unselfishness that he has as that point guard now, he's able to orchestrate. He knows who's hot and where they want to get it. He knows the offense well enough now to know what to call and it's like an extension of the bench.

If you do, dear reader, then we have failed miserably in our commitment to you.

Tim Jr

What's really nice about it is that there aren't many teams in the series that have a sponsor like that. It helps a lot with your reputation with other sponsors because they see that, hey, there's a reason these guys have been back with us when they can go to any team they wanted to.

Bill Brandt

United may have to pay more cash to the PBGC and others and it'd be difficult to find the money. They'll either have to get the banks to advance more or go find an equity sponsor who will put enough cash in there that creditors will get a meaningful distribution.

Bill Brandt

United may have to pay more cash to the PBGC and others ... and it'd be difficult to find the money. They'll either have to get the banks to advance more or go find an equity sponsor who will put enough cash in there that creditors will get a meaningful distribution.

Adam Pine

Scott Aiges

We've always had a strong presence (at SXSW), but this year's going to be bigger and better.

Mark Joseph

We've always had a School Committee member or two on these committees, and I feel very strongly that should continue. We need to know what we're bringing in.

Kevin Cato

We've always felt like our defense was one of the stronger points of our game. Our goal was to have a hand in their face for the full 94 feet of the floor and that would hopefully take away some of their shooting ability.

Eric Thurston

When we were there at the beginning of the year, they handed it to us pretty good. We have to make sure we come out, play well and play smart. We have to be very strong in our own end. Defensive zone coverage is going to be key.

Adam Pine

We've always had it in us. I think the men's team will continue to get stronger and stronger and we'll be winning many gold medals in the future.

We've always felt like our defense was one of the stronger points of our game. Our goal was to have a hand in their face for the full 94 feet of the floor and that would hopefully take away some of their shooting ability.

Joe Papin

Tomorrow we have even a tougher task. We are probably going to be facing a stronger team. We have to play for three periods no matter what the score is. You would think being 14-0 I would be happy, but right now I'm not.

Dan Niles

We're getting to the latter half of the year. and typically, the industry sells close to 20 percent more PCs in the second half versus the first half. People are getting ready in anticipation of a much stronger second half of the year.

Jason Schenker

What we're seeing is a lot stronger numbers than were anticipated, also with an upward revision in August and July. All of this bodes well for the economy and shows perhaps the economy was not as severely affected by the hurricanes as initially anticipated.

What we're looking for and what I think to some extent we're getting is both much stronger commitments from the G-8 countries as to how they will implement their obligations ... and then to make sure that they are not the only contributors here,

Paul Karas

We're sort of quiet out here, doing our thing. But we are ... going to be in a position to claim the title of third commercial airport for Chicago.

John Smit

We're going to Dunedin to win the Tri-nations, not to defend it. We do not want to wait another week to see what will happen in the match between the All Blacks and the Wallabies. It is probably the worst thing in the world to wait and see if you are going to win the trophy. We must make sure we retain the title ourselves.

Donald Trump

When we checked with the title insurance company, they said we had ... a complete right to that entrance and exit.

Dan Washburn

We felt it was a good move to enhance girls golf, but we did not intend to put the (Central Board of Control) in a vulnerable position concerning Title IX.

Mark Mears

We're hoping the third time will be the charm. Winning a state title has been our goal all season.

Dave Klingel

When we were at the drawing for the tournament seeds last week, we were praying that we wouldn't have to face Meade. We didn't play well against them during the season and we knew they would be a tough team to face early in the tournament.

Angie Murphy

We're going to need a lot of help to win conference. But our goals are still there. We're getting ready for the tournament and hopefully a run to the state tournament.

Tommy Amaker

We're going to face a team that has played in the tournament and won in the tournament. That's one of the things that is concerning me.

People look at me weird because I'm a Howard Stern fan, but he's very misunderstood. It's the first thing I do when I get in my car at a tournament - just pray that I get Howard 100 on Sirius or XM.

Lauren Herring

When we got there, our luggage got lost and our hotel was bad. Everything was awful. When we finally got to our final hotel, it was like 2 in the morning. I said then, 'Even if I win this tournament, it's going to be the worst tournament ever.' It ended up being not so bad, though.

Zach Errett

We wrestled fairly well today. We wrestled at the Bo Henry Tournament last week; we wrestled really well there. Today, we didn't wrestle as good as we could've and I think the guys realize that; I think they kind of figured out that there may have been a few matches we lost that we should've won.

Steve Evans

What happens is when you play a home tournament you don't give it the same focus as when you are away. You think you can hit the ball anywhere and don't give (the course) the respect it deserves.

Luke Reilly

We gutted it out, handled pressure and made free throws at the end. We've got guys with a lot of character. When you make a state tournament run, you have to have kids who make plays.

Frank Staffen

We got to the tournament a little later than we normally do and the kids had to warm up real fast.
