Eric Quotations | Page 2

There are the intangibles when you pick a guy in the draft because (a team) is accountable for that player. Whoever takes Eric is going to sleep at night not worrying about how this is going to look on their track record.

The only thing I would say is that when you play Wake, you have to pick your poison. We tried to close the perimeter down and left our post on an island. It's no fun being on an island with Eric Williams. He's going to push you into the ocean. He's a terrific player. I told him before the game I was so proud of the way he's developed his body and his stamina.

It appears the police department this morning was arguing that when Channel 2 put on Captain Eric Adams, all of a sudden magically it transformed him from spokesperson for 100 Blacks into a representative of the police department.

I think it's important that Eric get off to a good start with the right people in place and the fact that Mike is very deserving of this opportunity, the fact that he has a good relationship with Eric will be a plus for the Jets. I know those guys will work tirelessly.

I thought Eric Roberts stepped up and gave us a nice burst of energy. We used different combinations of people and defenses and got to look at a lot of people. We'll play the people who play the hardest and play the best together.

I thought Andrew did a great job (defensively). When we face 1,000-point scorers like Eric Anthony, you have to treat those guys a little differently, and Andrew did a real nice job with that.

I though Eric and Jordan brought it, just like always. I was anxious to see how some of our guys who had never been in that situation would respond. I think they learned, and they'll be better players as early as Thursday.

I think the CD has this great mood. It projects this positive tone which is something that, when you're in the midst of talking about the places that I've visited, or that Sam and Eric and War Child go to and have projects in, it's dark. It's like unspeakable sadness in these places, but then to have music that is very warm, maybe even forgiving is a good way to say it, it's a very healthy thing.

I think the difference tonight was that second line of Amoroso, Dan Munroe, and Eric Fader. Everybody executed, but that line worked especially hard. It's always a great rivalry with Salem, and this was a big win.

I thought we played a very good game except for there being too many strikeouts and the bunt defense at third. That ended up being the run that hurt us. Eric tried to guide it over to third and we had the lead runner.

It goes beyond just the Eric Moulds situation. We hope something can be worked out with him. We'd like to keep him and we'll continue to make our efforts to do so.

I went on the other side (of the rock in the middle of the rapids) and watched the men's pros, ... I saw E.J., Eric Jackson out of Houston. In my opinion he's one of the best in the world.

I watched him around guys like George Harrison and Eric Clapton, and I realized the look in their eyes was the same look I had when I looked at Dad.

I was always keen to shock people and shake them up; Eric was a little bit more traditionally motivated in really being just funny all the time.

I think the media has thought a lot more about the Heiden record than I have. Eric has said that it's tough to do what he did in 1980 because people are specializing in specific events.

I think Eric would like to stay. He's big on loyalty. But it's got to make good sense for both parties. It's got to be truly, truly a win-win situation.

I think Eric was great at the line, he's our leader, and he did what a leader point guard does and stepped up there and swished them.

I think Eric is due that respect by the Buffalo Bills. We need to find out what his fair market value is and we're going to determine that by finding what other teams out there are willing to pay him. ... We'll never determine that if we just continue to go back and forth with the Buffalo Bills.

I think Eric has handled this entire situation very well,

Our kids have been swinging the bats all year long. Five of them are hitting at least .500 and before today, Eric was hitting .730 and he's got six home runs now. He's driven in 11 runs and has at least 13 stolen bases.

Our midfield has always been a strength of our team, particularly the depth, ... We have plenty of players who can contribute again this year. Andrew Jacobson will return this season and Eric Ebert, who made great strides as a sophomore, looks to have a breakout year.

Marco and Eric are forging full-speed ahead and certainly look to fill out the team. They've been extremely busy and will be extremely busy until they get the roster in place.

I was harshly criticized for the decision to make Eric Gagne a closer,

I was happy with the win. We got banged up again. The Fothergill twins Eric and Adam played well at mid center. They have really stepped it up, filling in for Greg Raymond.

It felt like on tape that Eric struggled with speed all season long and the same thing happened at the Senior Bowl. He's got short arms. I think he's gone from a high-level first-round left tackle to at best a second-round right tackle.

Johnson & Wales has had a hard year. They will be excited to play a Division I team. It should be a fun homecoming for former Highland High star Eric Daniels.

Man. I was just ... actually, probably, I don't know, ... I was so wound up. It didn't seem like we probably were going to get it. I thought it would be tied. But Eric and (shortstop) Adam (Everett) turned it, and here we are.

Many American players - Paul Caligiuri, Claudio Reyna, Eric Wynalda, Kasey Keller, Tony Sanneh, Michael Bradley and Steve Cherundolo, just a partial list - have sought the income and challenge of Germany.

Melia is absolutely lovely, and so is her family. She's one of the sweetest people I've met, and it's for all the right reasons that she and Eric are so happy together.

I thought Eric Clapton was good. He still is. Not only is he good - he's rock's #1 guitarist, and he plays blues better than most of us

That will be helpful for the division. Eric deeply understands developers and what they want and need.

That was awesome, nothing was nicer than seeing a green ice. Thanks John Deere and Eric Staal.

Michael Brown's death and the suffocation of Eric Garner in New York for selling untaxed cigarettes indicate something is wrong with criminal justice in America.

Whether Eric comes off the bench or starts, he gives our team a spark on offense or defense. He?s been a true senior leader.

When I was 6 years old, I was watching Eric Heiden at the 1980 Olympics. My dad was watching it on TV and I just thought it looked really cool.

When it comes to classic Disney, I've got it in my DNA. I mean, the guy who trained me, the man who mentored me when I first came to the Studio was Eric Larson, one of Walt's Nine Old Men.

We're allowing every Eric Harris, every troubled kid out there, to become the next Tim McVeigh,

We're a fullback-oriented offense. Our fullback Patrick Harris gets most of the carries. But our big-play guy has been our tailback Eric Crenshaw.

We believe the only wise option is for Eric to turn himself in peacefully, ... No one wants to see anyone hurt. That is of the utmost importance.

We had nobody hitting for six to eight weeks, ... but Eric maintained a very consistent, strong approach. He never gets too up or too down.

We have a lot of offense that we haven't done or shown because Eric has not been a part of it. It hurts, but he hasn't been with us this far.

We have been working with Eric for a long time. He knows the Truman campus and what students will like.

We hadn't been under two minutes for our 1-5 guys at all and it was just under 1:40. I think they're getting in a lot better shape. Jesse was right behind Eric most of the race. He's coming back pretty strong after having mono earlier in the season.

You know, they're a gambling pressure team. Eric just got a little careless a couple times.

We needed him to step up. He and Eric (Hicks), out of our core, played really well (against Villanova). We didn't get production we needed out of a couple of guys. We were fortunate to be in it down the stretch. It's been different guys on different nights. We've had some guys be more consistent.

Unfortunately, right as it got to one, it was either spit some out or spit them all out because I didn't have any room in my mouth to swallow period. So I ended up spitting a handful out, which they did just count as one cookie. So I got nine, which thank goodness I beat Eric Kuhlman because last year he beat me. Even though I think kuhlman has a bit of a problem. He thinks i spit out two cookies. But i still stand by that it was just one cookie.

To grow a lot more, Eric has to find a way to multiply himself. He needs to create not just managers out of his workers, but people with the same entrepreneurial spirit. If Eric can't solve that problem, he will be limited by the number of hours he can be in one place at one time in a day.

We had a plan that all the Acura cars would stay together and use the draft, ... I was gaining on Eric (Curran) and everything went well when I put that one lap together.

We had a plan and that was that all of the orange and white cars were going to stay together and hopefully use the draft and stay quick, ... I was catching Eric (Curran) by quite a bit and I thought that it wasn't going to be as good of a lap but it turned out it was excellent.

When you work the whole year for a couple of days of performing and things don't go well, you take it personally. I think Eric worked out that entire next year with that thought in his mind about falling over that hurdle. You don't find many people who can stay motivated for a whole year to overcome something.

We played well in the first game, we just couldn't come up with the big hit. Eric was just dominant pitching today and gave us a big lift in the second game.

We practiced well all week and played well the past week. They really keyed on Eric and that opened things up for Doug.

We played well in the first half. We did a good job of getting the ball into Eric in the post.

Time will tell eventually. No decision has been made regarding Mike Bishop. If he doesn't come back, we'll explore other possibilities. Are we going to explore Eric Crouch? Yes we will. We're going to work the guy out.

He was a quiet man, Eric Cantona, but he was a man of few words...

Walla Walla is where I make wine, with Eric Dunham. He and I partnered up on a small project for me. We make pretty good cabernet and syrah.

We obviously had no idea this was going to occur. Eric pitched 14 games last year. We're all smart enough to know you don't know what you're going to get when the guy comes back.

While passing by a "Sleep In" motel, Eric paused, and very matter-of-factly replied, "Well, don't tell me what to do!

We've been doing that all year, bringing Eric in late ... letting him shut them down, kind of like he did tonight.

We don't look at Eric as a rookie coordinator. He had a lot of input. We have a lot of input. They've very open to suggestions.

We contacted Deputy Attorney General Eric Holder within 48 hours after Ms. Tripp provided us information ... About Ms. Tripp's tapes and the questions concerning their legality under state law. About the consensual FBI recording of Ms. Tripp and Ms. Lewinsky. About the indications that Vernon Jordan was providing employment assistance to a witness who had the potential to harm the president ... We discussed jurisdiction. We noted that it is in everyone's interest to avoid time-consuming jurisdictional challenges.

We put that in all week. I had to hit him in the second window (deeper in the end zone). I thought the flat defender would come down when he saw the ball fake, but he didn't. Eric ran a good route and didn't get hammered at the line, and I hit him in the second window.

When Nolan gets on the mandolin and Eric gets on the slide guitar, the sound changes. We have a lot of neat textures.

We would much rather have Eric released. If we can work out a trade, we will. But if not, ... Eric won't play for the Bills.

We're not a big team and we're not as physical, but we don't come up short on effort. Eric had a great game for us and everyone out there gave a lot of effort.

We saw 12-14 games where we had our top six guys back there. Our defense on the back end was awesome. When we were healthy, we had a great group. We could defend, we could join the rush, we could be offensive and we could do anything. Getting Joni and Eric back will give us something to build on after the break.

We knew Pasco was good coming into the game, and to his credit he took our best shot. Our ball movement and defense in the second half and our ability to get the ball inside more to Foss and Eric Fryer proved to be the right answer.

To be sat with greats like Billy Boston and Eric Ashton and to be mentioned in the same breath as Harold Wagstaff is just absolutely wonderful.

We had a tough time getting the ball to Bobby (Howard) in the second half, and Eric really stepped up. We tightened up our defense a bit and got some rebounds, and that was the game.

We are shopping Eric. Obviously, we would much rather have Eric released. But if we can work out a trade, we will. But if not, we're back to Square 1 and Eric won't play for the Bills. He doesn't want to play for them, and he will not play for them.

When you play safety in this defense, you have to know a lot about where people fit, what's going on and the whole big picture. Eric has a very good grasp of the picture, of our whole defense. He's going to get the guys lined up in the right spots.

First concert I ever went to was a group called The Yardbirds. Eric Clapton is the lead guitarist.

We've got a couple of Louisville guys here (Lefors and Eric Shelton). They lost a few weapons. I'm hoping we rebound this year and get after them. I'm going with Kentucky 24-17.

We'll have to wait and see if Eric can take on the responsibility.

We had a good run out of all three of those guys. Eric especially has been running better. He's running with pain from surgery he had in the spring and we've had him biking and his times are starting to drop.

This was a case where our offense affected our defense. Eric didn't take a shot in the first quarter and it got us out of sync.

We gave Eric several days in a row, and now we're giving Reggie a bunch of days in a row. We've got to get one of our center fielders going. When you're young, this can be a tough game to get it going. The danger is you don't have anything to fall back on at this level. I always say you find out what a guy's made of when he struggles.

We knew Eric had the ability. We could see it in the training room. But for a kid to come here who's never been in this tournament and come in and win it, that's outstanding.

We knew Eric could be an excellent player and he is proving that this year, ... He really has added to the excellent play from the rest of the team this season.

You hear people talk about Tommie Frazier, Eric Crouch and Scott Frost. So you know you're in good company. You do get a feeling that playing quarterback here is really a big deal.

what came from Manchester; Stevie Winwood and Spencer Davis were the Birmingham contingent and then from the North we had The Animals, Eric Burdon -- and further up north was the Alex Harvey Band from Scotland. We all converged on London, we all had our own different styles, and it just became the London melting pot, really.

We talked about how we worked with Eric and what great things he's done for this district.

We were pretty lucky there. My other son (Aaron) was shot at several times by Eric while he was running up the stairs and he missed him.

We had the long fourth-down situation and Eric Parker and Drew make it down to the 7-yard-line, and I'll be honest with you, I realize there's no certainty, but I felt very confident with where we were. I just felt good that at the 7-yard-line we'd find a way to get it in the end zone.

We got more than myself and Eric playing big in the tournament. Hopefully that confidence can keep growing.

We're very happy to have Eric with us. He gives us a proven receiver to go along with Andre Johnson. Now we can line up and we have two first class wide receivers and we feel very fortunate about that.

We are very excited to be adding both Harold and Eric to our scouting staff. We feel very strongly that adding Harold to Ron Delorme's amateur scouting staff and Eric to our pro scouting staff will strengthen the department. It is important to our management team that both Harold and Eric have been with our franchise before and are passionate about the Canucks organization.

We'd actually met him once when he was at Cambridge. Then Terry Gilliam came along and started doing cartoons in the last series. We knew of John (Cleese) and Graham (Chapman) and what they were doing. They were doing a thing called 'The Last 1948 Show.' So it was really 'Don't Adjust Your Set' gets together with 'The Last 1948 Show'... John wanted to work with Mike Palin. At that time we decided not to do another series of 'Don't Adjust Your Set,' and we all came in the package: Mike and me and Eric and Terry Gilliam. We said, 'Let's all do it together.' We all liked what each other did.

(Bellaire) does a good job getting in your face (defensively). Eric got free a couple of times early, but they adjusted and did a pretty nice job on him.

Every player on the field is important, ... I think that's what we tried to do the other day (vs. Miami), get everybody involved. We got Eric (Moulds) and Lee (Evans) involved, which we hadn't been able to do so far, and getting Mark (Campbell) and Willis (McGahee) some catches, the more you can do as an offense, the better off you'll be.

Did you remember to thank Eric Roberts ?

Do we make it seem cool? I think we do. What we're trying to do is tell Eric's story. I think Eric is cool. ... I don't think there's a video game quality to our show, but I think there is something to be said for having a purpose the way Eric did when he spent his life in the military, for showing the sacrifices that these men and their families make.

Dylan's is the kind of model we envisioned, and in the same way we see this book bringing out the distinct voice of Eric Clapton. He will be intensely involved in the book writing process.

Eric worked his way from the most entry-level position to a position of great responsibility during several successful seasons. The opportunity Eric has now earned is truly an example of good things happening to a good, hard-working person and I wish him well.

Eric worked hard. He likes traffic. He gives you the same thing every day - it doesn't matter what group he's in (whether against rookies or veterans).

Eric will provide the guidance and insight needed to ensure that we continue to operate efficiently and create new opportunities for our advertisers and publishers. I am confident he will strengthen our team and play a pivotal role in taking Undertone Networks to the next level.

Eric Williams was sensational. Right from the outset we had a difficult time contending with him.

Eric Williams dominated and we had no counter for his ability to dominate around the basket.

Eric Williams did a tremendous job in the paint. We really didn't have a counter for his tremendous presence down low. A lot of things revolved around his ability to dominate inside.

Eric willed this team. He carried us on his back. I love his team spirit.
