I believe the majority of Americans don't want a chief executive who spends more time huddling with lawyers than he does performing his job. People don't want this travesty to drag on. |
I hope now that the other sports leagues take note of baseball's lead and toughen up their own penalizes, too, |
I know there are 20 economists out there who could do the job. |
I think it will continue from now until the end of the campaign, |
I think their records should all be wiped out. |
I think, seriously, that they are under the opinion that we will not act, ... We tried to explain to them that we are going to act because of their failure to do so, and I don't think it's sunk in. |
I told him that at the Hall of Fame ceremonies. That's an alternative he has, and I think he should use it. Integrity of the game — where does that put the players union? I think it would be the right thing to do at this point. |

If they would take seriously the bills before the Congress and negotiate some kind of settlement that is close to the bills in the House and in the Senate, then I think major league sports and their unions could get away without having legislation passed by the Congress, ... I don't see that happening. |
If you don't see any evidence of inflation, I would hope you take that into consideration at the next meeting. You don't have to raise rates just because many expect you to do so. Low interest rates are not necessarily a bad thing. |
In light of the hurricane devastation inflicted on the people in the Gulf Coast and its impact on our economy, it is foolish to be raising rates again, ... The price of fuel is surging upward, and Americans simply don't need another rate hike in the middle of a crisis -- they need relief. |
It is going to be up to the players, ... And I don't think too many of them will risk playing with fire. |
It seems as though there are Members in this body who want to filibuster just about everything we try to do, whether it is stopping judicial nominations, the Energy bill, or this Medicare bill. |
It's a wonderful project because it helps patients and their families at a difficult time, |
It's plain wrong, and it's un-American. |
