Blocks Quotations | Page 2

I think it changes a game. Like when Ahmet blocks a shot in the post, (the opponents) start hesitating and looking to see where he is.

It busted out all the windows two blocks down.

I think it's livable. If they got running water to all these buildings that are obviously inhabitable, they could get the city cleaned up a lot faster because people would be cleaning up their own blocks and their own neighborhoods.

I think it's also important for our offensive line to finish blocks. We're still searching for consistency. We've got to finish blocks better and that includes wide receivers that are involved in the run game. And our runners have to continue to get better in terms of their vision in seeing things.

I thought we were gonna take it. We went up 2-0 and Donnie (Hansen) had some monster blocks to start off with.

I think you get a feel after a while when you watch guys as they're making blocks and can tell if they are just surviving in the game, or if they're looking to win the game.

I was born in Evanston, about three blocks away from the Chicago border. My mother, at the time, was finishing her Ph.D. in African History at Northwestern University. Soon after my birth, my parents split, and my father moved to Wicker Park, which is on the north side of the city.

I think we had to get inside-out. If she blocks your shot, you've just got to keep attacking, keep going up.

Life throws up enough road blocks to keep you from writing; you can't be adding to them yourself by saying you can only write in one specific place. I'm in New York half the time and Texas half the time, and I work wherever - in my computer bag I have some foam ear plugs that I can put in.

I was kind of sold on the idea of being one of the building blocks to try and help get the program back to where it once was.

I think they want an offensive lineman with good feet, which David has. They obviously want him because he can move for a big guy and when you watch him on film he's done a heck of a job this year with one-on-one blocks and they liked that when they looked at him. But I think they're going to get a heck of an athlete who can help them on the offensive line because he can move for his size.

Jermaine blocks a lot of shots, but he might have felt he just couldn't get to it. That's his decision.

JDSU is pleased to introduce these innovative building blocks for the Agile Optical Network. We will continue to build our portfolio addressing the AON, a strategic imperative for the fast, cost effective deployment of IP-based broadband communications services.

Our plan will be about like everyone else's - not try to let him run all over the place. Our players know what they have to do. They have to contain. You don't just run straight at a quarterback who looks like him. Hopefully, our guys will get off blocks and sort of corral him.

Our two girls on the low blocks heard the announcer say two shots. They just stood there. But our girls on the top were boxing out. We have no excuses. We certainly had our chances.

Our blocks in the Miami game came the right way. They came with our big guys playing good post defense, moving their feet. When someone from Miami committed to shooting the basketball, most of our blocked shots were on the ball.

Our nation was founded with a bunch of founding legislators who joined together to move our country out of the blocks and get us started, and every generation since then has found a way to advance the ball down the field.

Steven plays a big role for us inside. His defense is great and he takes up a lot of space when he blocks out so that it helps everyone on our team rebound. And he's got great timing for blocking shots.

Stephen is a big, big player, so he makes me work really hard. Every time he blocks my shot, then I don't want him to score on me. So he gives me that mentality to play hard every time.

Some guys like to start it out, and they get out of the blocks well. But from a mental standpoint, if I'm coming off the bench, I like to sit down and see what's going on. I can clear up some things when I get out there or try not to do the exact things that someone else has been messing up on.

Some look at a brick and see something to break a window with, others look at a brick and see the building blocks of a great building. You tell me who was the true visionary.

It felt real good. Just to see the open field and I got some good blocks and it was the first touchdown (in Stockton) for our team so it felt real good.

I tell them every time they get up on the blocks to use the opportunity and make every swim count. Whether we're up or down, we want to come up with our best performance.

I think history is going to repeat itself. We brought a little of the beach-into-the-casual dining concept and now we're doing the same thing amongst all the marble with our wood floors. We have 25,000 rooms within a couple of blocks of us, so we're right there nestled amongst the big guys.

It depends on what they are. We had some guys trying to get off blocks and the (opposing) guy spun and we got called for something. Some holds may get called or they may not. All in all, the penalties jumped up and got us at the worst times. We'll address that.

Justin Williams leads the nation in blocks for a reason. He's got a long body and he's quick to get up (to block a shot). You've got to give him a lot of credit for stopping a lot of our offense.

Maybe six blocks from where we live there is untold wealth. If your constituency is financially challenged, you're going to have to go elsewhere.

We haven't seen a shot blocker like that. They had nine blocks in the game and obviously that leads into our somewhat miserable shooting percentage.

When it comes to blocking for Mike Vick, you have to stay on your blocks a lot longer,

We came out of the blocks smoking. Then Marc got hurt, we had a couple of turnovers and we gave them some third-down conversions. When you let a good team like the Colts get on a run, it's hard to put a finger in the dike. Obviously a 17-point lead isn't enough against the Colts.

Tyler is our primary passer on the serve receive and he's very sure-handed. He blocks on the weak side and he does very well there. He can hold his own in the back row, too.

Tyler has been blocking a lot of shots for us this season. He not only blocks shots but he changes shots.

When I first came into money, I bought six or seven homes. One weekend I went to Miami and bought an apartment and a mansion several blocks from each other, which was not that bright!

We know less about the structure of our own galaxy than we do about many nearby galaxies like Andromeda. We literally can't see the forest for the trees because we are embedded inside our own galaxy, and interstellar dust blocks our view.

When you're casting your ballots for Defensive Player of the Year or All-Defensive Team, there's no doubt. I think people forget about what he's done.

We plan to finalize award of blocks to successful bidders by Nov. 15 and sign production sharing contracts with them by Jan. 15 next year.

We're lobbying ABC for when the show is on, it's on, and when it's off, it's off. So, we want to air it in three acts next year. You know, blocks of seven, seven and eight. But in order to do that, we have to roll the show out in October instead of September, and hopefully that will work out.

We were kind of uncertain about ourselves going in. We had that loss, and now we had to go back and re-establish and do the things we had done before and not let the Benton Harbor game be a negative thing for us.

We had three strong events today. We looked good on vault, bars and beam. On floor, the training caught up to us. Our legs weren't there.

We got a little pay back, as they beat us by seven points in our gym. We came out of the blocks well, something that we haven't been doing, and shot well early. We made our free throws down the stretch and played good defense all game.

We tell them about Earth science, astronomy, plant science and marine science. But what we don't do is explain what the four basic sciences are and what the building blocks are. We go too broad too early. We don't go in depth enough.... You've got to understand the big picture of what science is and how all the sciences relate to one another. If you don't do that, you'll never get it and you'll never get a real interest in science.
