Sprint Quotations

Last year was a tough decision for me, to end my season so short. But it was the right decision for me, because right now I feel great. I can go out here and sprint full speed right now, but I'm just going to pace myself for April 5.

Seeing people catch a feeling in their spirit and sprint the aisles of the church while my cousins played driving, uplifting gospel stuck with me. I let that same feeling wash over me when I experience and perform music.

When I was working at the Sprint store, I got laid off. I was bummed out, but I stayed positive. I used the money I had earned while working there to make my first album. Without that job, maybe 'Corazon Sin Cara' would never had been made. It's a very inspirational story.

At 17, I was working at Sprint in the Bronx so I could make money to fund my own music.

I've got more stuff asked of me every week. But I drive a race car for a living. My car owner lets me race as many sprint car races as I want to run.

Yes, my dad's a marathoner. He used to do sprint distances and then started marathoning. My mom is an endurance animal. She does three-day events like the Susan G. Komen three-day walk.

You do, mostly, in track, different sessions, sprinting and medium sessions in different style. You have to see that even if the pace is slow in championships, you can still sprint well and you can still power the last 200, which is always the main part when the race is slow.

We very much regret that our merger with Sprint was not allowed to proceed,

I'm a guy of 92kg. I haven't got the physique of someone who can work back and then sprint up front again throughout a match!

When it came to the final sprint I felt that I was in with a good chance,

We're going to find out Sunday night if we deserve to be in the playoffs. It's not a sprint here. We've had all year and if you deserve to be in the playoffs in this league, you're going to be. There's no mistakes over 32 games.

U High is very strong and has a great sprint corps. Normal West is a much better team than they were a year ago.

We have to get back in transition and keep talking. Ager and Brown are good, and they always sprint the lanes. You have to be ready for them. A key will be if we are able to stop their transition.

We have never had this much depth on the women's sprint side. We have very healthy inter-team competition and the results have been apparent at the meets.

The regular season is a marathon. It's a long season, and there's no way you can play that hard for that many games a year. The playoffs are more of a sprint when you have to give that extra 20, 25 percent that you might not give when you are playing the fourth game in five nights during the season.

The popularity of the Sprint Music Store is due largely to its ability to instantly deliver the songs people want when they want them on their Sprint phone, the one device that is likely always with them. This feature, along with the easy-to-use storefront, appeals to a mass audience in addition to tech-savvy early adopters.

We've talked about it, ... If he wants to drive a sprint car when he's old enough, I'll do whatever I can to support him. On the other hand, if he told me tomorrow that he didn't want to race anymore, I'd be fine with that, too. It will be entirely up to him.

Leon Van Bon led me out perfectly, but I started the sprint too early, couldn't finish it. Although I was going for a stage win, the intermediate bonus sprint and the green jersey gives me a lot of self confidence.

Seven furlongs (King's Bishop) is a great distance to come back. But then Bellamy Road would have to go up against unbeaten sprint star Lost in the Fog. On the other hand, I don't think the Travers (1 1/4 miles) has as good competition.

She will sprint up and down the field the entire game. She has the ability to turn her speed off and on as she needs it. She doesn't need to beat someone to the ball by 10 steps just because she can. She stays fresh that way and saves that energy to use it later in the game when everyone else is tired.

Since the merger, Sprint Nextel has delivered the highest revenue growth rates of any large-cap U.S. company in the telecom industry, and we intend to retain that leadership in the months and years ahead.

Most people who own Sprint stock want growth, and land-line stock isn't growing.

One of our goals during this time is to maintain stability for our employees. Our employees were used to receiving both a 401(k) plan as well as a pension plan. By continuing to offer both, our employees can continue to stay focused and aggressively strive to serve our customers both during and after the separation from Sprint Nextel.

None of this technology, over time, is proprietary. What's significant here is that Sprint says it's ahead.

Nextel Partners has a lot going for them. Sprint Nextel didn't have a choice either.

I wouldn't suddenly decide to go for a 10-mile run or do sprint intervals on the track at this point, ... If I'm playing sports, I would be conscious of my need to be some kind of hero or need to show off.

I worked on my legs extra hard during basketball season for more explosiveness and to be a lot quicker coming out of my sprint stance.

I got in behind Regina and was well positioned. Giorgia Bronzini tried to move me aside with a dig with her elbow but I held my place, but then Giorgia got in front of me again when Regina started the sprint and I had to come around her.

I don't know Deutsche Telecom very well, but in discussions with our European analysts, it appears Sprint is a better fit.

Sprint Business Essentials plans are tailored to meet business needs and help them make anyplace a workplace.

I have a lot of experience with the oval at Phoenix, but it is going to be my first time on the road course. I just have to remember to turn left a little harder into one. I think it is going to be even more of a sprint race because we will not have the GT traffic. Almost all of the cars are going to be running the same lap times. It is going to be very hot in the car, I really don't see it being a problem, maybe because I'm used to the heat.

I have always remembered that he could run like a deer. With those long legs, he can sprint and run the floor. Over the year, he has gotten more physical and he has let his presence be felt.

I can tell you that a wind sprint at 9,000 feet is not fun.

From inception we have placed the interests of our investors, customers and fellow partners (employees) first and foremost. We believe that aligned with Sprint Nextel we are poised to move to the next level. This is an across-the-board success. It results in an attractive price and provides certainty for all Nextel Partners shareholders.

For Sara and I to do this together is amazing. We've been together since we were 15 years old. We've come so far, worked so hard. This is our third Olympics together and maybe today was maybe our last sprint race as a team.

He went very nice. This is the best he's gone in a long time. The way he worked today, the Breeders' Cup Sprint would probably be highly likely for him if he continues the way he's going. He's a quick horse. He's fast.

He's been a dream to coach. Not only is he a nice player, but he works extremely hard. He wins every wind sprint when he really doesn't have to.

He moves very well for a man his size. I don't worry about 40-times. If he's ever doing a 40-yard sprint on game day, something's wrong.

When he ran from a cop his transitions from accelerating walk to easy jog trot to brisk canter to headlong gallop to flogged-piston sprint were as distinct and as soberly in order as an automatic gearshift.

We are extremely excited about the USAC Silver Crown, USAC/CRA and USAC Sprint Cars along with the USAC Midget Cars airing on The Outdoor Channel in 2006. I personally want to thank everyone involved in putting together the most diversified television package available on any network. We look forward to many years of exciting USAC Racing on the Outdoor Channel.

Having a wireless play has been essential for anyone who wants to be a full-service telecom player. Sprint is not going to have any problems finding a buyer if this deals falls through.

He seems to be focusing on the sprint area and I will have to be right on my game in the 200m. Certainly my 400 has big chunks of improvement to go and I want to see that as early as next year.

It bunched it up because everyone had to slow down. I got boxed out, but the final sprint is so long that it gives you a chance to recover your position. If it was shorter, I would have been like on the 15th wheel, but I was able to get back in the right position.

Lancaster obscures the results a little bit because they score so high, but I was real happy with our relays. They finished second to Lancaster, and I would think they posted some of the fastest sprint times in East Texas.

I thought that the sprint was my best chance but I stayed calm knowing that there was still two individual events coming.

I think what the folks up there in Sprint territory are experiencing is this euphoria, this anticipation that these changes are going to take place. They are (going to happen), but they aren't there yet. This is a trend and we are on the front end of the curve.

I was wrong, but we were in a sprint for survival. We were just little people trying to get recognition for doing good work. In a sense it was like being Don Quixote.

I think folks are concerned about future wireless subscriber growth from the industry perspective and secondly when will Sprint realize some of the meaningful synergy opportunities from the merger?

Our relays will be very good. We expect our 4 x 4 to qualify for finals. The sprint medley and mile relays should be in contention for a medal.

Sprint PCS continues to lead the wireless industry with record subscriber growth for three consecutive quarters. This quarter, Sprint PCS increased average revenue per customer while it reduced acquisition and operating costs-per-customer compared to the previous quarter.

Sprint often tries many technologies. In the end, we tend to see eye to eye about what the technology road map should be.

As we work through the regulatory approval processes, we intend to focus on plans for efficiently integrating Partners' business into our operations in a way that is seamless for customers and employees.

Sprint is very inexpensive versus the WorldCom takeover. It's over a 25 percent discount. First, (there is) the $76 that WorldCom will be acquiring it for. And we think it's a very strong likelihood that merger will go through by the end of the year.

Sprint is the first major service provider to announce an IP videoconferencing program, ... until now, the service provider has been missing.

Sprint is the first carrier in the United States to deliver what customers want most in a wireless store, the instant gratification of downloading and owning their own personal collection of high-quality songs on a device that is always with them.

Sprint has essentially under-performed in that space. It does not have nearly as much market share.

Sprint gives customers the power to use their wireless phones to stay informed even when they're not at home or near a computer. The Housekeeping Channel is another useful tool our customers can access on the one device that's always with them -- their Sprint phone.

Sprinters now have nothing apart from the sprint and keirin, two very similar events,

Sprint Easy Office levels the playing field for small and medium-sized businesses by allowing them to enjoy the benefits of a robust mobile messaging tool without having to make a significant investment in IT support and equipment. As a part of our alliance relationship, Sprint and IBM have partnered to help businesses extend their workplace with a collaborative tool that is easy to use.

Sprint does not just want to treat the enterprise like a big wireless consumer. Endpoint access must be secure before the user is granted network access.

Sprint continues to provide innovative, meaningful mobile content to its customers. Mobile phones offer so much more than just voice applications today - and we're literally 'changing the game' for the better with this original content. Sports fans are active, engaged and invested in these games - they want instant and up-to-the-minute access to their teams.

Sprint continues to lead the industry in bringing the best lineup of entertainment and mobile content to our customers. Now our customers have the flexibility to view compelling programming from CMT, COMEDY CENTRAL, MTV and VH1. They can also listen to streaming audio channels from CMT, MTV and VH1 - a service that currently only Sprint offers to its customers.

My Rabobank team controlled the stage very well today. I was in a good position in the sprint and so I went early, but it was a bit too early and Petacchi beat me.

Look for Hayden Lee to go marathon shortly. Both can sprint a 7/16.

I was unable to move up one gear but I still managed to keep pedaling and win that great sprint as you all saw.

I was in an awesome position coming into the sprint and I just didn't have the legs to beat Regina, but with a bit more work, maybe I'll get her next year. I'm pretty happy with the result. I put myself in the race and all the girls did a really good job today.

I think the thing (about) her is discipline; to be able to combine athletics and her academics, she's very serious about everything she does but she's also able to enjoy life as well. She has good sprint speed, she's very smart and she has a lot of guts. All that adds up to a good 400 runner.

Maybe I realized I'm not that good coming from behind, so I have to try to sprint out and hold on.

That was unbelievable. For us to win those sprint relays was really special. To set records was the icing on the cake.

Winning at Talladega is pretty big. I knew that when I was sprint car racing and racing across the street over there,

You have to anticipate more sprint out in the package. The system is probably going to be largely the same with a few more tricks.

We're not going head-to-head for hard-core music collectors. It's for the mass market. Much like we did with camera phones, this is an opportunity for Sprint to put digital music players in the hands of people who don't have one today.

We're excited to have two more SONY BMG artists achieve Platinum and Gold milestones on Sprint, ... The success we've seen with Music Tones on Sprint is a great indication that the market for mobile music is continuing to gain momentum.

What investors want right now is growth and the price for Sprint is reasonable.

We have been racing for a week now and each day it is harder to win. Today has been a difficult sprint because of the headwind.

When I was growing up and going to races, I always admired and looked up to Bob. I wanted to drive a sprint car and be like him. To tell you the truth, if he was not racing, I probably wouldn't be involved in the sport.

We would have preferred a smoother, more effective ability to access the information that Sprint possessed. Time is critical in an investigation where you've had an abduction of a child.

We rode pretty hard for about 30 or 40 kilometers, but eventually it got a bit disorganized. There were a couple of teams chasing, because (Michael) Barry was in the break and I think he was some kind of threat on the G.C. The sprint just came up on us and everybody was doing their turns at the front. I kind of timed it to come through on my turn. I wasn't sure what was going to happen, because yesterday there was a thousand dollars on the sprint. I didn't think there was that much money on the line, but I wasn't going to miss a shot.

There are a couple of sprint locations, a lot of up and down and weather will play a factor. Wind or heavy rain could make the race much more difficult.

With Text to Landline, Sprint customers can quickly touch base with someone on a landline phone, even when a voice call might not be convenient. As more and more people begin to rely on text, instant messaging and chat services for quick communication, this offering is just one more way that Sprint is making sure our customers have a wide range of options to meet all their messaging needs.

We wanted to give the fans something more. One of the most impressive things about sprint car racing is how quickly teams can rebuild these cars or change engines, and the fans never get to see it. Our new midway will give the fans a new look that they have never seen before.

We see the way that we did it as a great advantage because we see ourselves as strategically positioned with our customers in the Southeast. They have a level of trust in us and with this Sprint agreement, we are giving them the ability to connect to their offices outside the Southeast with the kind of network they are used to at home.

While the Super Bowl is one of the most watched events on television and people pay particular attention to the advertising itself, you can extend your brand messaging by delivering your commercials in other formats. By offering our commercials and others exclusively on Sprint TV, we hope to once again position the wireless device as the 'third screen' for entertainment, news and information.

The race was driven a lot harder than I had thought it would. It was a pretty lively pace and a very grueling race. Next year I think it's going to be a 24 Hour sprint race.

We will be aiming him for the sprint trial again in November.

We had to get on it every time we turned it over. There was a point we had to run a sprint for 80 seconds on the highest level of speed. That's a killer. My hamstring is still tight from that.

When all is said and done, I think the market will sprint higher toward the end of the year. But it's going to take continued encouraging earnings and economic reports to move it along.

We don't think of this as cable operators pushing a cell phone service. We want to leverage what Sprint has outside the home and create services and features so that consumers can take whatever media they have with them.

You have to push yourself and the car very hard for the entire race. The field is so deep and there are so many good teams, you can't afford to back off the pace too much (to save the car for the entire 24 hours). You have to be very smart in traffic. That one move you would make in a sprint race, you may have second thoughts about doing but for most part you have to go for it.

We went out on fires. I was the lead person on the crew, and Dave was one of the crew guys, ... That's how I met Dave. He told me how great a sprint car racer he was.

Between the 2005 special session, harvest and holidays, I had a very busy fourth quarter. Like in any race, I plan to sprint to the finish and have a strong showing this spring.

Five is better than seven although you have to be careful it doesn't become a walk and then a sprint home.

First you have to be in a good position, then enter perfectly the last corner. Then you have to get out of the corner with enough speed. And only after that, you sprint straight away. It is going to be a very hectic and hard sprint.

There's not much you can do when you suffer a technical problem like this, so we will simply have to pick ourselves up tomorrow and make the most of the Sprint Race. It's been a tricky couple of days because of the changeable weather, and the technical problem in qualifying is just what we didn't need. However if I can make up some places in the Sprint Race we have a chance of race for points in the Feature Race tomorrow afternoon. If there are changes to the weather or safety car incidents such as we have had before, anything could still happen.

I spoke to Jeremy and can confirm that Proclamation is in top form for his Sprint Cup bid and that Frankie will ride him at Haydock.

I've never timed myself over 100m, but I have done a test over shorter distances, 20m or 30m, with and without the ball. What's strange is that I'm faster with the ball than without it. Some people are born for distance running and others for sprint

These sprint boys weren't happy with how the sport was being promoted and where it was going, so they asked me if I'd still be interested in helping them, and I am,

The sprint was long and difficult, Bennati kept me on my toes all the way to the finish.
