Bench Quotes
We're just really playing well together. The last four or five games, I've been starting our seniors. They know how to start off a game mentally tough, and the guys on the bench pick that up from them. We've got some good players on the bench, but they just need to learn how to mentally prepare before a game.
-
Brilliance Quotes
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.
-
Behind Quotes
We're just keeping things simple. Philly's a great team, and I thought we did a good job of getting behind their 'D' and making things happen and coming through the neutral zone with speed. After the first period I think we were a little slow, but we got going as the game went on. We blocked shots and killed penalties, and to win games you have to do that.
-
Flashes Quotes
We're just immature, and we're not where we need to be in terms of competitive greatness. Yet, there's times when there's flashes of very solid basketball. That's where we've been. I'm not happy with it, and we're very disappointed that two or three players couldn't step their game up and make the plays they needed to make when the game was in the balance.
-
Ball Quotes
We're getting better and better. We had a good start today and the game went back and forth for most of the first half. Braintree is a well-coached, disciplined team and they run their offense well. Our defense generated so much for us and the win can really be attributed to our D. Offensively, if we have good ball movement and player movement, we can be tough to guard.
-
Core Quotes
We're from two opposite backgrounds, but whatever's inside of him, from his core growing up, there's a quality I like in that he enjoys the game still as a kid. I think that's important at this level, because at this level the pressures are there. They will always be there, but as long as you see that core enjoyment of the game, I think that's important.
-
Available Quotes
We're hoping that there are some guys that maybe we on the fence who didn't go to the World Championships will go now. We're trying to get their A game for the World Cup. And particularly if we end up with the same coach for both tournaments then I think it would be ultimately important for all of the players who are available to go.
-
Beat Quotes
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.
-
Bring Quotes
We're back where we should be. This is always a game when the schedule comes out where you take a look at who you're playing, and it's always nice. It's something that people plan to bring their New Year's in on. It's always a nice celebration, a nice atmosphere. To make it a successful night, it's up to us to go out and start it off right.
-
Came Quotes
We're a young team, and we're working hard. A lot of these guys have never played or came up from modified. We didn't have a modified team last year so they haven't played in a year. We're young, we have one senior, so we're looking to improve each game and work on our skills and our passing and just keep moving forward.
-
Challenged Quotes
Through our first seven batters and their first seven batters, the score was the same (0-0), but they (the Lions) were winning the game because they were having better at-bats. After that, I challenged our guys by telling them they had to make better swings on the ball. They made the necessary adjustments, and I'm proud of them for that.
-
Beat Quotes
We're ready to make a run. That's been the girls' goal from the beginning of the year. They feel like they've got some unfinished business from what happened last year. But understand, when you start on that tournament trail, it's one game at a time, and the team you have to beat that night is THE team. You can't look too far ahead.

Adding Quotes
With the speed and power of today's game, the time has come for tennis to benefit from new technology. This new breakthrough -- perhaps the most significant change to the game since the tiebreaker -- will improve line calls for players, while adding excitement and intrigue for fans and TV viewers.
-
Afford Quotes
With U.S. mobile game sales having flattened from mid-2005, the industry has begun to support innovation -- in distribution, in technology, in marketing, and in game development -- as a business priority. As massive marketing spending that most industry players can't afford is the only clear alternative to ensure revenue growth, innovation is not only a necessity; it's good, cheap, and fun.

Aspects Quotes
We knew what this game represented, ... Once the game started, I think the players had our minds on football and the aspects of what we had to do to get the job done. I'm thinking about place-kicking and doing the best job that I can. But when the buzzer sounded and the game was over, I kind of realized what this game had meant to a lot of people.
-
Expecting Quotes
We knew we were going to get better. We had to. We have too much talent not to. Were we expecting to turn it around so quick? No. And I don't think we did. I think we progressed with each game and got better each week. But I don't think we were all of a sudden playing so much better the next week.

Five Quotes
We like being seeded third. Having the first-round bye will be really important because then we will be more rested going into the second-round game. I do not like to think past our first game, but the path to the championship game is much better as a three seed than as a four or five seed, which is what we have been the past three years.
