Against Quotes
This tie presents a wonderful opportunity for us to play against truly world-class opposition and the world's best player Roger Federer. This will be a tough tie, but one that we are more than capable of getting a result from. We have a chance of playing in the World Group next year and I know the players are determined to give everything they have to try and make that a reality.

Cleveland Quotes
We are very proud of our technology leadership in the industry. Our new X-Tour Wedges are an example of how technology combines with human elements -- like the unique touch and great eye of a craftsman like Roger Cleveland and the input of a special golfer like Phil Mickelson -- to create a great product. It's what makes these wedges special and why we think they will become short-game classics.

Baseball Quotes
There's no other situation this would be OK. A normal guy, that wasn't going to play. It fit for our situation at the time. It's not something I would advocate. But Roger Clemens is a gift from the baseball gods. Anything he does is a gift. ... Craig (Biggio) and I have never had a ring. Our best opportunity to get one was to have Roger around. He tends to his obligations, his kids. And it's not like the man comes in here and pitches five innings and gives up six every day.
-
Band Quotes
I simply believe we have a duty to go on, to ourselves, ticket buyers, staff, promoters, big and little people. I also have a duty to myself and my dependent family and friends. I also want to help guide Roger and the rest of the band at this time, all of whom have been shaken by John's death.
-
Across Quotes
The way that Roger runs his organization, it's a 'flat' organization. What I mean by that is that you can just walk into anybody's office and ask them a question on how we can get things done a little bit better or easier and nobody has a chip on their shoulder on how the totem pole is supposed to work. Everything is run flat across the board. Everybody is smiling and having a good time.

Against Quotes
This certainly isn't easy to do at any age, especially 35. It's been a privilege to compete against so many great champions over the last couple of decades or so. Without exception, Roger has been one of most enjoyable to compete against. Thank you New York for the last 20 years. It's been a great ride.
-
Beneficial Quotes
This particular camp is probably more beneficial than most because Roger has had the opportunity to acclimate himself to the deliveries of each of these pitchers, to put a face to an arm. He's been watching DVDs and looking at statistics. Now he can humanize these guys. So it's probably been more beneficial than any camp we've had in 16 years, from that standpoint.
-
Bit Quotes
It was a great match. I really played very well first two sets. I had my chances. I had a break in the second. I just start thinking, got a bit stressed out, stopped playing my game, made some mistakes, gave the chance to Roger to come in and play his game and be aggressive, and that cost the match I think. So I'm a bit unhappy. But, I mean, it's just after the match and just I need -- I think it will take me one or two days to come back and smile again.
-
Bad Quotes
It's really unbelievable. What can you possibly say about it? We're not that bad a team. We don't have that bad an offense. It just seems like every time Roger pitches, the other guy elevates his game. You get the other pitcher's best game of the season -- if not their career -- on that night. I've never seen anything like it.
-
Children Quotes
I'm excited because I want people coming to Memorial City Mall to have a new option for great, family-friendly dining. Roger Clemens' Rocket Sports Grill will be as much for women and children as for the guys. Whether they come for lunch or dinner, I want everyone to relax, have fun and feel comfortable.
-
Bring Quotes
I'm excited about the opportunity to be a small part of this team. I think it's great that these guys have gotten into our sport. I think it's going to be good for the sport. They've entered in a big way with Texas Instruments on board. Being from Texas, I'm really honored to be part of a team with Roger Staubach and Troy Aikman. I'm looking forward to the opportunity. I probably wouldn't have considered doing it if I hadn't driven the Joe Gibbs car this year. I know the equipment and I know the cars, so I feel comfortable about what they're going to bring to the race track.
-
Andy Quotes
I knew we weren't a 15-under-.500 team. When the season started, I thought we were probably five games over .500. Then, if we got a little bit lucky, I thought we could be 10 games over. I think we're fortunate to be 14 over .500 because we didn't figure on Andy Pettitte (17-9, 2.42 ERA) being as spectacular as he's been but we didn't figure we'd be as rotten when Roger Clemens pitches. Go figure.
-
Antipathy Quotes
I had a fantastic time. We hadn't played as Pink Floyd in 10 years and hadn't played with Roger in 25. The main thing was obviously the cause, but I was also pleased to get some of that personal, trivial antipathy that's been part of our lives for so long and pack that away. For several days, Roger and I went out together. I'm very pleased that we're now at a point where we can talk.

Ability Quotes
Innovation is the future of Gannett, and Roger has proven his ability to encourage new ideas and make them business-ready. He is the right person for this new and exciting role. The Center for Design and Innovation is a key part of our strategy for growing Gannett and stimulating innovation throughout the company. As a team, our top management is excited to embrace innovation.
-
Extent Quotes
I probably prepared the same as Roger did. I really just downscaled what I would normally do just to be ready for this. I worked out the same and threw the same at the dealership. Not quite to the extent I normally would, but good enough that I could come down and represent my country.
-
Against Quotes
If I can use a cliche, he just has to be Andre Agassi ? the guy who weathered so much for so long. The guy who knows so much about matches and be every bit of Andre Agassi he can be. Against Roger Federer you have to bring your best because he sets the standard. There's no way Roger is going to give anything to anybody.
