Steve Sampson

What a disappointing way to finish the match, especially after creating so many opportunities that we should have put away. It should have easily been 2-1 at halftime. We played to win, we created enough opportunities to win, and we didn't handle the last few minutes of the game very well at all.

They're going to partner up with biotech companies or buy them outright as a way to improve their (product) pipelines.

Lance Williams

We had 11 penalties last week. We are going to talk about mental discipline. I don't think that we deserve a lot of those (penalties). Jos Holt is just quick on the ball.

Tommy Johnson

We had 10 penalties two weeks ago. When you do that and drop the ball several times, you're not supposed to win.

Nick Saban

We felt like he should start in the game. I know he had his penalty or two, but we'll continue to evaluate that and we feel like we have three guys who can play tackle.

We believe very strongly that the purpose of penalties ought to be to deter, not to punish for its own sake.

Basically, what they're working on here is a smallpox drug. As you know, the vaccine does have a lot of side effects. And this small, tiny basically New York-based company, with its labs out in Oregon, is working on this drug, ... And they just recently announced a contract from the Army -- $1.6 million. It's obviously speculative and somewhere along the line the company is going to have to raise money.

William Winkenwerder

Our safety experience with smallpox vaccinations to date is consistent with what we expected overall. We have seen a small number of adverse reactions to the vaccine, mostly minor,

Dana Perino

While there's concern, we do not have any concern that a smallpox attack is imminent.

Bob Collins

We've asked all our section pros to put their program up on the Web site and I'm really, really excited the way they're starting to get involved.

Natalie Purcell

We've always had good second halves, but we always start slow. It was nice to have a good first half.

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.

Ken Macha

When we were trying to pick a fifth starter back in camp, it was between Saarloos and Etherton, and we weren't quite sure which way we were leaning. So we went to Kendall, and he was adamant about Saarloos. That's what clinched it.

James Loney

When we were released I was sure I could jump right back into ordinary life and that's what I wanted the most, but I'm afraid no such luck. When I can get through an ordinary day without shaking legs and a pounding heart, I think that will be a sign that I can start to tell my story.

Morris Peterson

When we were off to our 1-15 start I think that's when they did the poll.

Theresa Adams

When we were letting the starters sit on the bench, to see what was going on on the floor ... that's just how the other part of the team feels when they're on the bench, wanting to get in. And after they saw all of that, they came alive to realize that they (would) rather be on the floor than on the bench.

David Snowden

We've always worked well within DoD guidelines and of course will continue to do so. We support the directive and all regulations that would protect military members from unscrupulous business practices.

Bob DuPuy

We remain guardedly optimistic and are looking forward to receiving a positive response to our reapplication, hopefully within a matter of days.

S. Walker

We're getting the apartments furnished now. Hopefully within two weeks, we'll have everybody housed.

Jeret Peterson

When we were all down and out, having the worst time of our lives -- we were cold and we were miserable -- Emily was bawling, but she still had a smile on her face. Emily is one of the most positive people I know.

Jeff Lemire

When I was offered 'Hawkeye,' it was very intimidating at first because that book is so loved and so successful, commercially and critically. The worst thing you could do is try to imitate what they did because, in the end, you're just going to get a watered-down version of what they did.

Gary McClure

You don't like anybody to beat you too much. I don't have a long memory. And as an athlete, you can't have too long of a memory. You've got to move on. I can sure remember last year though, because we played two of our worst games against them. ... But it's good to bounce back and get a win tonight. It's good to beat a good club." ()

Craig Fuller

We're going to train progressively toward the end of the year. Last year we ran well for most of the season, but when it came to nationals we had our worst race of the year. We'll make sure we're ready at the right time this year.

Bob Krabbe

We're going to fight that vigorously. If the company were to have its way, we would be looking at losing literally thousands of jobs to overseas labour. This is something that we have not seen at any other airline. United (Airlines) in its worst days has never tried to do this.

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.

Kenneth Fisher

Hundreds of investors ask me questions each year about the dilemmas they confront. Their worst problem? Uncertainty. They are traumatized and become emotional or confused to the state of inaction. Even worse, they try to solve a short-term problem in a way that hurts them financially in the long run.

David Wilkins

When we are facing what appears to be more and more the worst natural disaster in our country's history, many of these other issues we have been discussing suddenly pale in comparison.

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.
