Steve Woods Quotations

I don't feel terrible about the performance, but a loss is a loss. A year ago, maybe a couple of years ago, that would've been okay, but no longer.

I don't understand where a lot of it goes now.

Our goalie played great for two and a half periods. Two of the goals that went in during the third period, he didn't even see them.

Melissa Rodriguez really stepped up and did a great job. She's just so gritty and so tough and she doesn't complain.

Yeah, he's OK and I didn't see the whole thing. Half of the people you talk to say it was a double minor and half say it was a major.

The data continue to point to the Federal Reserve's major unresolved question: Is the economy slowing enough to vent the pressure on labor markets and inflation?

We had a game plan and we followed it. We tried to run the clock down and we did exactly what we wanted.

With imports now more than one third higher than exports, it will take a sharp reversal in these growth rates for the trade shortfall to narrow on a sustained basis. Although the U.S. economy is slowing and international economic activity is accelerating, it is unlikely that the trade deficit will narrow anytime soon.

There's a different sort of excitement than all other sports. I don't know if it's because we're coming off winter, or what.

Alicia has been incredibly unlucky to have been struck down with this condition following a breakthrough season in 2004. Regaining her health must be the top priority and Tennis Australia will provide her with any support she needs during this difficult time.

This is a team that has a really good feel and a lovely balance. We have some good young Grade 9 girls and we're getting leadership from our older players.

You can't keep running credit cards up without getting into trouble. You have to curtail expenses. It's not always what you want to do. It's what you have to do.

It seems to me the start of things was when fuel costs went up.

No, that has nothing to do with Paul's decision. Paul has done a fabulous job at Tennis Australia over 12 great years. He's decided the time is right now.

No, that has nothing to do with Paul's decision.

It was great watching her play against not only Shoreline competition but some of the better players in the state. It was a lot of fun. It's great to see some of these kids get out there and play against each other.

The (Federal Open Market Committee) will welcome this report but will need more evidence that the consumer spending slowdown will be sustained over the balance of the year.

I'm excited that this money was able to come back to the town. In the big scheme of things, every penny helps. We had applied for funding in January 2005, but it got bogged down.

I love this. I always look forward to the season.

The good thing is, we go out and score on the first half of the double minor to take the lead. We had a great chance to score on the second half and we couldn't put it in.
