Alex Quotes from:
-
Bowl Quotes
Alex Smith is under no illusions as to why he was chosen where he was. It's not for him to go out there and make the Pro Bowl. That organization brought him in to bring a world championship to the city of San Francisco. Anything short of that, then that quarterback didn't fulfill the expectations of the organization. That's a tremendous burden. No one who's ever won a Super Bowl has ever done it by himself.
-
Addition Quotes
Alex Rodriguez would be a fantastic addition to any team and we have always respected his decision-making process regarding his participation in this event. By naming him to our provisional roster, it simply gives Alex the option to play for the United States, if he should decide to do so.
-
Best Quotes
Alex made some adjustments to his stance. I just see him better than I've ever seen him. He's more aggressive. He's not getting overpowered at the plate. I see him as one of those guys getting better and better. This is going to make it tougher, because he's not out there every day. You hope it doesn't stunt his growth. Right now you're looking at it as what's best for the team. He'll get plenty of action.
-
Came Quotes
They tried to box-and-1 (defend) Alex right off the start, and we ran him off some screens and gave him some looks. Some stuff he did on his own. It was a total team effort. I have to credit Gladstone for hanging in there and fighting. I honestly feel it was our guys being able to counter-measure everything that they came back with that ultimately kept us ahead.
-
Coast Quotes
They say it takes two to three years to really get the West Coast offense down. I think that's the reason why a lot of top picks struggle early on - because they don't have the guys around them and the offenses they're running are pretty complex. Obviously Alex is in a situation where they'd like him to play right away, which puts a little more pressure on him. At the same time, I put pressure on myself to be great every day in practice and in the games, and I will be. It's just going to take a little bit.
-
Addition Quotes
A lot of things came together and it did work out well for us. The weather has been very kind. The gas prices being what they are, more people are staying close to home. And there is anticipation for what we are doing as far as expanded gaming (the planned addition of slot machines). But, oh, if Smarty Jones or Afleet Alex had been here in either of the last two years, we would have had to have been three times this size to accommodate the crowd.
-
Almost Quotes
It was definitely a back-and-forth game, numerous lead changes. Alex Jensen, being my best player, had the ball in his hands all the time, he makes it easy for us to create and score. People might say he didn't dominate today, but 13 points, eight assists and seven rebounds -- that's almost a triple-double. Will Brown struggled early, and then came back and had a big game.
-
Commitment Quotes
It's that time of year. Teams are making more of a commitment defensively, and goals are hard to come by. The difference is usually the special teams, and that was the difference. Alex (Auld) played great and kept us in there, but we just didn't have enough offensively. We were a little undisciplined. We took far too many penalties and it hurt us.
-
Came Quotes
Dom had an unbelievable season. He came in with 25 points in his career and was a leader from the start. He was very good offensively, and also was good on defense. He killed penalties well. He's a strong two-way player we'll miss. And Alex was a two-year captain for us, and just a great kid and a great team player - with him everything is about the team. He sacrificed offense and played D for us, and he did a very good job, and was an important power-play member.
-
Attacking Quotes
It's been good to see the likes of Mark and Alex fit straight in, looking to express themselves and not hide in their shells. The camp has been key to establishing our attacking platform. Everyone has interacted really well. There's been a lot of honesty. The proof, of course, will only come when we play.
-
Ability Quotes
The merger we announced last year with Zeitgeist Communications has come full circle with the appointment of Alex Josef as our new CEO. Alex's ability to provide top-level strategy to clients and his track record of taking other PR firms to leadership positions are attributes we wanted in a CEO...he is the perfect choice for leading this company.
-
Area Quotes
I know that you've got to watch yourself with that offensive line. They're going to chop you and cut you. Alex Gibbs is a 'consultant.' His whole philosophy is, 'Whatever we can do that they won't call.' Now, there's a lot of gray area in there, so they're chopping people all over the place.
-
Accused Quotes
In a sense I do feel very privileged. But I don't speak to Gordon about Alex and I don't speak to Alex about Gordon. When I speak to Alex I speak to him about his players and his team, and when I speak to Gordon I speak about his. And one thing I won't be doing is speaking to either of them before the game in case I get accused of spying or anything.
-
Bowl Quotes
I just remember that it was my first start, and being so excited and just being so thrilled to be out there with those guys like Andra Davis and Alex Brown, being able to be on the field with them and get a chance to win a bowl game. It was real exciting, especially being an 18-year-old freshman." ()

Designers Quotes
I honestly think that with our generation - Alex Wang, Prabal Gurung, Jason Wu, Christian Cota, Robert Geller - there's a different expectation of what our behavior should be. People expect designers to be good businesspeople and PR people, and I don't think partying is a part of that persona the way it used to be.
-
Account Quotes
child support did not take into account the lavish lifestyle that was provided to Alex by his father when Mark was alive and had custody of Alex. This lifestyle included vacationing with Mark at his lavish beach home, cruising on Mark's yacht, driving in Mark's fleet of luxury cars and attending events of extraordinary prestige, lavishness and extravagance.
-
Against Quotes
He's our best, most complete player. Alex plays head to head against the top players and there are few No. 1 centers who are asked to play against the other team's No. 1 center. He's a good offensive player, but he's equally good defensively. He's a classic Russian center like they produced back in the Soviet Union days.
