I have a lot of respect for them.

Brian Fitzgerald

We're a young team and we're still growing. I'm proud of the four wins we got against the defending county champ. They're a tough team with three defending county champs and another two who are ranked. They wrestle all year all over the county. We were more mentally prepared today.

Ozzie Guillen

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.

Rich Miller

We've always said that's probably the widest mound in the league ? and maybe all of baseball. I really think the mound is too wide. That ball by Heintz was hit hard and then it hit the side of the mound. But that's not what lost us the game.

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.

Ozzie Guillen

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.

We're making key hits and playing tight enough defense to win some close games. I think we'll get more confident with our hitting as we go.

Ryan Miller

We're starting to feel like we're hitting on the right cylinders again.

Tony Robichaux

We're going to play a lot of very good baseball teams in league play. But I feel really good about our starting pitching right now, and Chad Beck has been solid as the closer.

Most amateurs are so worried about mis-hitting the shot or hitting it off line, they don't make an aggressive move. You'd be surprised how much better your swing will get if you let your natural athletic ability shine. So go after it.

What we're really starting to do is get as many people around the football as possible, since the best thing for forcing turnovers is getting a lot of bodies on a guy. That, and hitting hard.

When we do hit, like today, we just don't play defense. We haven't put together a solid game of pitching, hitting and defense in God-knows how long. It's killing us.

Lora Staveness

When we did get looks we weren't knocking them down, and they were hitting their shots and locating their shooters.

Jeff Mitchell

We remember what they did to us last season. It's the season opener against a division opponent that knocked us out of the playoffs, and with what has happened to New Orleans recently, you know they are going to come in here ready to play. We shouldn't have any problem getting up for them.

Jeremy Hall

When we got the fire knocked down we saw this burned cat close to the base of the pole.

Steve Rives

What a game. Our guys never game up, and when we needed a big shot, someone stepped up and knocked it down. Our guys really played (well) today.

What he did to that (cornerback), it was clean and legal, but he knocked his helmet off. Then he ran the length of the field. We as coaches said, 'Wow!' He was running by some of our other guys.

Usually I qualify good here but always seem to get into a mishap and get knocked out, ... I haven't had a good run of luck, so I was just hoping to finish.

Steve Fell

We're feeling pretty confident, but we can't think we're unbeatable. We've got to go in there hungry and try to win. Otherwise, you just get knocked back to earth.

Patrick Arney

We're just not playing on all cylinders. We're misfiring here and there, with moments of brilliance and moments where we're just not good. But we've got a tough game (today). Harlingen High is going to be ready for us. We're the ones that knocked them out of the playoffs last year, and I hope my girls are ready because they look good this year.

Rudi Giuliani

The people who knocked these buildings down will hear from all of us soon.

Jack Caffrey

We are making another run at $70 a barrel, and we are doing it without a hurricane having knocked out 70 percent of U.S. production. You couple that with the stark reminder of all the geopolitical jitters out there, and you wind up with investors wanting to get a little more defensive.

I did a thing on Malcolm in the Middle which I loved.

Cesar Milstein

My thesis was on kinetics studies with the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase. When that was finished, I was granted a British Council Fellowship to work under the supervision of Malcolm Dixon.

Dan Tietjen

I thought our girls set the tempo of the game by playing pressure defense. Malcolm had a difficult time getting into any rhythm because we were pressuring them all over the court.

David Wallace

Malcolm X started fighting among themselves because they were missing some easy shots. We just played them a week ago and that's what they did to us. We turned up the defensive pressure and got off to a good start.

Dick McConnell

Malcolm was tough at the end, and Adam played well, but we didn't play super. At least we won. I'm happy." ()

Dawud Walid

Malcolm soon became a burglar, a drug dealer and a drug user. He was caught by the police and received a 10 year prison sentence.

Jim Tressel

Malcolm is a very mature player. He came to us ready to play. When the opportunity presented itself, he stepped in and did a great job.

We've always been very close. But right now I feel there needs to be a change in the direction from where our national administration has taken us and where the Republicans in state government want to take us.

When I was manager (of Liverpool) in England the national team coach was much more understanding.

Rodney Lewis

When it comes to a big game, a national championship game, either a five hundred or thousand dollar board.

You don't lock into a ten-year family budget. You take it a year at a time - maybe even six months at a time. And then if the income really comes in the way you hope it does, then you can make some of those expenditures that you've been waiting to make. We think that same principle should apply to the national family we call America.

Tedd Cain

We're standing in unity with the national movement. But we're not actually calling for everyone to miss work or not go to school.

We're sitting up here as national champions, but I don't necessarily believe we're the best team. In a one-shot deal like this, I've been on both sides. I've been heartbroken, and now we're national champions.

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.

Katie Montgomery

We've barely had enough to go five-on-five, but we're ready to be aggressive and do whatever it takes to win. We've beaten tough teams this season. We know how to double-team and help each other out. We just have to be focused and work hard.

Bob Romeo

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.

Steve Matlock

We've assembled a team of dedicated, energetic people whose experience and enthusiasm for this industry is unparalleled. With these talented leaders in place, La-Z-Boy is in for an exciting ride.

Mike Turner

We've always tried to play all of the good teams. If we're going to be one of the good teams we've got to play the good teams.

Tim Coghlin

We've always thought they were a very skilled team but they're even more skilled than people know. They skate really well, they swarm the puck, the protect they puck well. They all have exceptional puck skills, stick skills, and they compete.

Jamie Dixon

We've always thought he was a very good player and always believed in him. He just happened to play on some very good teams behind some very good players. Last year, he developed and got better. He played in a lot of big games against a lot of good people.

Rick Spring

We've always set team goals. Making 100 points in a game isn't one of them, but if it happens it happens.

Jim Fleming

We've always let our guys like Miguel play toward the end, but not the whole season. They all want to play for their hometown teams down there. So we oblige within reason.

We've always known that we can play with some of the best teams in the league and score.

Randy Honebrink

We've always tried to reduce the number of people getting bit by sharks through education and awareness. We try to get our safety tips out through our Web site and in publications.

Ryan Rosenberg

We found that a lot of people were using advanced scripting, multiple files and other advanced tools but don't think of themselves as professional developers. So we repositioned the product and added more stuff for customization--more tool tips and custom menus.

Lindsey Graham

We're going to lose Social Security and Medicare if Republicans and Democrats do not come together and find a solution like Ronald Reagan and Tip O'Neill. I will be the Ronald Reagan if I can find a Tip O'Neill.

Tom Hall

We feel that we're at the tip of the iceberg. We've gotten up to speed pretty quickly to let travelers tap into a rich source of information, but we're also very aware there a huge number of things that we haven't started thinking about that you can do with this technology.

Rich Knighten

We're getting hundreds of tips all over Mexico.

Mark Richt

We're beat up and fatigued and there are some guys in Gainesville licking their chops. The guys on our defense are flat-out warriors. (Defensive tackle) Ray Gant would not come out of the game and probably should have a couple of times. You have to tip your hat to them and coach Willie Martinez and rest of our defensive coaches.

Alan Ball

I certainly believe that what we perceive as humans is just the tip of the iceberg. I don't necessarily believe in vampires or werewolves or that kind of thing, but I believe there is definitely a realm we don't necessarily have access to.

Charles Schumer

I think we could be at a tipping point

Lori Allen

We believe that the star clusters lighting up the tips of the pillars are essentially the offspring of the region's single, massive star.

Paul Stamm

DeLoss Dodds

We've always wanted to keep him in the top five in the country, where he belongs.

Evan Lysacek

We've always had great depth in our men. Certainly we have it this year. And what I think is so wonderful about the top four is that each one has a completely different style.

Mike Pelfrey

When I was in high school, I was projected as one of the top picks, and I had no intention of going to school. But, I had a bad senior year and I fell. Looking back, if I had gone (pro) out of high school, I would not have made it. I wasn't mature enough. ... Going to college was the best thing I ever did.

Dale Jr

We're making some great ground on these tracks. This is the best opportunity I've had as a driver and the team is really capable from top to bottom.

Gene Hall

We're sitting on top of what very well could be an economic disaster. A lot of praying for a good soaking rain is all that can be done.

Jeff Laing

We're going to try and steal two or three games from some of the teams that we lost to in the first half. And hold serve against teams we did beat, which should put us in that top four. And that's a good place to be.
