Assistant Quotes
I knew I always wanted the chance to play for Danny. When I was with the Edmonton Eskimos and he was an assistant coach with Calgary, I wasn't dressing my first year and he was in the spotter's booth and he'd always tell me: 'It's a good league. Be patient.' Just those little words of encouragement meant a lot. When he became a head coach, I had the urge to play for him just once in my career.

Apparent Quotes
If you ask consumers, they'll tell you they want COOL, but it's apparent that Congress isn't listening.

Biting Quotes
In addition, I can't criticize any station's national advertisers. It goes without saying that I wouldn't have the urge to criticize local advertisers. It would be biting the hand that feeds.

Animal Quotes
The Humane Society of the United States is very pleased that Mississippi lawmakers have taken this important step to stop an egregious trophy hunting practice that amounts to nothing more than pay-per-view slaughter.

We urge Governor Barbour to sign this bill into law now and snuff out this snuff film scenario.

The gun lobby's leaders said today in Springfield that banning assault weapons would injure Illinois economically to the tune of $150 million and cost the state 750 jobs.

It is the only thing that will reduce out-of-control government spending.
