Eric Quotations | Page 3

Eric will be our starting catcher and he is a solid defensive catcher. He is making progress at the plate.

Eric Weddle is stepping up. He's stepped up his work habits. Eric is so gifted and so talented. In the past he's had little lulls in practice where he zones out a little bit,

Eric was very valuable to us at the end of the year,

Eric was the only skier that pulled off an inverted maneuver in the course. We decided to go with the flip, knowing it was going to be difficult and there was a risk he might not be in the top scores of the day if he couldn't stick the landing. Not only did he land it but he took a lot of speed through the middle section and stayed just under control. The crowd couldn't believe it, I could barely believe it.

Eric was on a bit of a mission. He heard me talk about Carmine all week to our hitters and he had to prove that he could match him.

Eric was delusional and he believed he was killing an alien.

Eric took the same shots he did against Connecticut except they blocked them.

Eric swam really well and is looking forward to swimming much better at states.

Eric Stein was brilliant this whole week and kept us in these games. I am sure he will just get better and better.

Eric relishes those situations. He really enjoys being in those spots where he needs to play well.

Eric played out of position this year. We really didn't have a true point guard, but that helped his game adapt, and that will make him a better college player.

Eric Perrin kind of (ticked) me off a little bit. We gave him an opportunity and he just jumped ship for more money, I believe. But that's the nature of athletes, I guess.

Eric Milton just did a great job for us, gave us a chance to win the ballgame. He didn't deserve to lose that game.

Eric Maupin played with a lot of heart.

Eric Manly, a senior captain, was in France for a school trip.

Eric loves to visit antique shops and I do too. It's always been a love for both of us and his aunt was an antique dealer. We've always talked about doing something with antiques and teaching people to identify what they have and so I said, 'let's go for it!' It's also to introduce people to the art of being able to assess what it is that you have. People go out and frequent these garage sales and the antique shops and sometimes they just see something that's pretty, but they have no idea what the value is.

Eric loves Buffalo. He wants to play there. But he's not interested in playing for substantially less money.

Eric loves Buffalo. He loves the fans. He loves living there. He's a Buffalo person. But should he get less when he can get more somewhere else? No. He wants to be paid according to what the contract is. For Eric, it's a win-win. Eric will do very well somewhere else if the Bills don't want to keep him. He still has tremendous value.

Eric is so calm and composed as a quarterback,

Eric is probably one of the most dominating defensive players we've ever had at Palma. He hustles all over the field all the time, and he's usually the one making the tackle. There are a lot of teams out there that are going to regret not offering Eric a scholarship.

Eric is playing so well. And the offensive line is blowing people off the ball.

Eric is one of those guys that can definitely find the net.

Eric is on a roll. He's wrestling as well as I've seen him wrestle in high school, and it's happening at the right time.

Eric is no stranger to the Jets and certainly not the AFC East. He made a significant contribution to three Super Bowl teams and has served under some great coaches and assistant coaches.

Eric is looking forward to being a Buffalo Bill, as he always has. A Buffalo Bill for life.

Eric is a very bright young man who is likely to succeed in life. He is intelligent enough to achieve lofty goals as long as he stays on task and remains motivated.

Eric is a tremendous leader in anything he does. James is a four-year starter and Harrison is the hardest working player on the team and brings a lot of intelligence and understanding of the game.

Eric is a phenomenal cabinet-maker. He's the best you'll ever see.

Eric is aggressive. He likes to win. He likes to get after people. He understands football. He's been in a lot of great systems. He's been with Bill. He's done his dirty work, he's done his time.

Eric Heath turned some heads today. Counting all the meets he had the fifth best time of the day in the entire league -- beating some big-time racers in the process.

Eric has shown that he's certainly worth what he signed for. He might be worth more to this team. We saw what happened in the New England game in Buffalo. It proved that they really needed him more than ever.

Eric has played a pivotal role not only in overseeing project management of our new plant, but also in helping put together the extremely complex financing package that made it possible.

Eric hasn't practiced this week so he won't be ready to play Sunday. He is suspended for one game without pay. From there on, he'll be back and will play the final three games of the season, which I hope we'll do better than we have so far.

Eric has natural instincts and we think he can be a top defensive back in the conference.

Eric has dramatically improved the profitability of McAfee during 2005, significantly growing net operating margin. In addition, he has significantly improved the business and financial operations of the company. We look forward to having Eric improve all company operations in his expanded role.

Eric has done a nice job at the point. Derek brings a confidence to his position. I trust those two guys more than anyone because of the way they approach the game.

Eric has been the backbone of this team. He has been hot for the last month and a half. He is making key saves at the right time. The key to going far in this tournament is goaltending. If you have a hot goalie, then there's a good chance your team will go far. Eric has been playing great for us. He is one of the best goalies around.

Eric has been stepping up. He gave us a little spark.

Eric has been helping with the junior program at Texarkana Country Club for several years, and I feel really fortunate to work with someone of his caliber. I'm sure his expertise will only serve to make all of the kids that much tougher.

Eric has been great the last three games. He's really intense now. He's listening to the coaches. He's playing great basketball. If he's not scoring, he's rebounding. If he's not rebounding, he's playing great defense. He's doing a lot of really nice things that are going to help him down the road.

Eric has been around this and knows the importance of it. He's seen the good teams that have come through here and not won it." ()

Eric has been able to pitch a lot of solid innings for us.

Eric has a high ankle sprain and couldn't play. That hurt us. We ran a big lineup going in at 6-9, 6-6 and 6-4 across the bottom. I don't think that is something Mount Pleasant sees in its conference. We take out one big guy (Wilson) and drop a guard to the bottom of the lineup.

Eric handed over the car in good shape. I tried really hard to mess up the win, but fortunately we were able to get it. I can't say enough about my co-driver. He's a young kid, but he's very mature for his age and obviously a very talented driver.

Eric had the best game he's played this year. He was really excited about being down here and prove that his ability was going to shine. He carried us by himself for a bit. I was really proud of his effort, the way that he took the team on his shoulders.

Eric had a tremendous offensive season. Offensively, he's as good as anyone who's ever played here. We felt he could score, and we had some kids who were very unselfish and got him the ball in good scoring position.

Eric had a couple of injuries last year. But he throws the ball real hard and wants to be our closer. I look for him to be a real strength.

Eric Gordon was absolutely phenomenal tonight. I'd be hard pressed to believe there's a better guard in the country.

Eric gives us a little more speed, and with the way Hanley goes to right field, it can be a pretty good combination.

Eric gave us a good game tonight. He did a good job.

Eric Dietz, director of Indiana Homeland Security, validated that message by saying each county will be on their own. The state and federal government won't be coming in and bailing us out.

Eric didn't pitch that bad. They just hit it in the holes. He was unlucky today.

Eric did a lot of good things, but you have to credit his teammates for finding him underneath the basket. I thought we played good team basketball from start to finish for the third straight game.

Eric did a great job out there for us. He was able to locate his cutter and fastball where he needed to to be effective.

Eric did a great job of putting us in positions to be successful.

Eric Clapton asked me to join his band, Derek and the Dominos. That was the day before Carlos asked me to join him, and I went with Carlos.

Eric brings a lot of energy to the field and the clubhouse every day and I know our fans are going to enjoy the enthusiasm with which he plays the game.

Eric Brewer has been a premier defenseman in the NHL for the past several seasons, and we are very excited about the talents he brings to the Blues. We are also adding two skilled younger defensemen who are clearly up-and-coming players at this level.

Eric Block is as good a quarterback as I've ever had. He'll be a D1 player for sure.

Eric Ashcroft, a gentle, kind, popular man with a wicked sense of humour, was always modest about his wartime exploits, but eventually, with much prompting from his persistent son, he told me of his terrifying experience on D-Day.

Eric and Shawn are both energetic, up-and-coming coaches who come to the Packers bringing lifelong football family backgrounds. They're ready to take the next step with us here in Green Bay, and have a bright future in the National Football League.

Eric and Lee are going to draw a lot of double teams, so we've got to be able to throw to somebody else, ... As a slot receiver, I've got to get open. But the biggest thing is I've got to catch the ball.

Eric and Eddie have really done a lot for Brittany. She has just really blossomed. I thought Eric might not want her on the team but I asked him about Brittany coming out for practice. Soon after he agreed he said that he could put her in some matches.

There's so much more to our team than Mike, Eric and Morgan. We play up to 10 guys in varsity games, and at different times, they're all significant.

I sprinted to the other side of the pool and Eric laid the kid down and we could see he wasn't breathing, so I checked his pulse.

I started doing some acoustic things. When my character was out at sea on a tanker, running his fleet, he'd just noodle around on his guitar. So I did an Eric Clapton song, and then I wrote a song to be used as a theme for a story line. That's how it started.

I've been forcing (shots). It's harder to get open, because they're really concentrating on Eric (Hicks) and me. When I do get it, I'm forcing it and rushing it.

The running back sets the tempo for the offense, ... If I'm out there banging on people, it lets the defense know it's time to get it on. Everything has to change. Everything needs a new beginning. They used to play power football with Eric Dickerson and Bettis with this franchise. It's time to go back to those days.

The same time we were talking with Eric we were having airline tickets printed to go see Dave in Jacksonville.

The thing I keep coming back to with Eric is his attitude. You always hear that message about living every day; when you see somebody close to you, somebody young, in this situation, it really hits home.

Ryan pitched well, he's pitched well all year. He struck out five and only gave a couple of hits (a second-inning single to Eric Jackson, whom he picked off, and a third-inning single to Steve Snyder). He doesn't walk guys. He's not overpowering but he throws all his pitches for strikes. If you don't put people on base, you win.

Performance-wise this was an outstanding meet in many events. Eric had some really big jumps. He made 15 on his first attempt.

The one quality I will always remember about Eric was his fierce competitiveness ... he was not afraid to race anyone, at any stroke, at any distance. I encourage all of our competitors to go out and race with this quality in mind.

Speculation of doing what Eric did, I would like to downplay that a little bit.

Do you know a magazine called the National Enquirer? In the current issue, somebody drew it to my attention, there's a picture of me, like a very young picture of me, and there's a picture of Eric Clapton now and a picture of me then, and it says this is how Eric Clapton has aged.

Despite his young age, Eric has both leadership and experience that will definitely help our club. A very solid defender, he can also provide some offense for us on occasion.

As a freshman, Eric has stepped into a starting position and I think his record speaks for itself. He will probably be the number-one seed in the conference tournament.

The bottom line is they want Eric to take a drastic cut and we don't feel his skills have diminished to justify that. It's just not going to work.

You only cry for people you call your brother. Eric has always been my brother.

You notice with Eric Conner, he had a very high feedback score.

They tried to man us up. We felt right out of the gates they were going to try to press me and Eric (Moulds) on the outside. We knew we were going to have to make a play to get them to back out. On that pass play that's what we did. I was able to get open, and we gashed them.

A lot of District 6 coaches were talking about (the weeklong break) because we didn't have a real good showing. We looked a little bit flat. Trevor and Eric didn't really wrestle as well as they could have. Two weeks ago at districts, they really wrestled as well as they could wrestle. Today, it looked like they weren't quite at that level. It might have affected us a little bit. I'm not sure. It's hard to say.

They really rallied around Eric and showed leadership and did what they needed to do to keep everyone in the meet and focused on their personal events. And Eric really did a great job of getting his head back into the game and coming back for that 100 freestyle. That's a really hard thing for a senior to go through.

They're pretty exceptional players, guys who are impact players that can make a significant difference. In Eric and Rich's case we're still ongoing.

At Daytona, Eric finished sixth, did a really nice job driving his way through the field.

It was common procedure for Eric Johnson to determine what needed fixing and get it done. That was within his responsibilities.

It is unfortunate, ... Eric is such a great player for this team. He is really coming into his own as far as experience goes. It is just one of those things that unfortunately is the nature of the business.

It's too early to say what's going to happen. There are obviously quite a few we'd like to have back again. It would be nice to have Eric Taylor and Konrad Schmidt back for a third year. I think just about everybody wants to come back, but it's hard to say. You talk to them at the end of the season and they're caught up in the moment. Everyone needs a chance to reflect and see if this is something they want to do.

It's time to move on. Eric loves Buffalo and we wish things could be worked out. But I don't see that happening.

It's going to be very tough. They've got (post player) Eric Williams down there, so we need somebody to step up and defend him. That's going to be a very tough game.

It?s funny because we were practicing and Eric was flying around the goal and diving for everything. I told him, ?Hey dude, relax, the game?s tomorrow (so take it easy).? But that?s the type of attitude he plays with. I don?t care what anyone else says ? to me, he?s the best goalkeeper in South Texas.

It's pretty hard to make me laugh, and sometimes they wouldn't pitch me a joke, they would do the joke. And if it wasn't funny, I wouldn't put it in. But more often than not, when they really thought it was enough to ruin a take, it was a good joke. And Eric is a great writer, so he was always giving other people jokes, too. You want that. There was a great camaraderie on the set.

It's unfortunate that we can't take more than 30 because there are a bunch of guys that were committed, just like Eric Chavez.

That's something Eric (Wedge) and I have already talked about.

Effectively, we have only one full-time prop who is fit - Lee Harrison. Euan might make it for the weekend but we will probably have to ask for a club prop like Eric to step up.

The biggest thing is the willingness for everyone to buy in and do their roles. One of the special things about this team is it's not about me, it's not about Eric Staal, it's about the team. If I can do my role and be great in my role - and be productive - it makes our team better.

The biggest advantage of the Wolfes is the bond between them. Since Eric is older and Dane is younger, it kind of meshes the team together. They each have their own set of friends on the team, but because they are brothers, everyone on the team can relate to each other.

The best thing about Eric is he balances up our offense. He throws it to everyone. He runs the offense the way it should be run.

I told Eric that before he could win five he had to win four. If (Zach) can stay injury-free, I feel confident we can be standing here again next year.

I told Eric not to throw an interception or get sacked, just get it off. He made a great throw and Bryce made a great catch.
