I walked into this clubhouse and I took a big sigh of relief, then another. I feel more relaxed, more comfortable with this team. So many (Arizona) people have told me they were happy I was traded. I wasn't surprised I was traded, I was surprised it took so long. |
I want to emphasize that all of them are ... regretful for putting themselves, their families, their team, their coaches, and their university in an uneasy situation. I think it's safe to say that each of them has learned important lessons in conflict situations. |

I was a little disappointed in that (Big East) rule. We've had plenty of cases on the team now, and in the past, where a guy was a couple points short on a test. Yet he comes here and graduates and has a great career and does a great job representing the program. |
I was brought up dirt poor and always had the dream to either become famous ... or to marry someone who already is as famous as I wanted to be. And this is why I'm driven. Also, being I've almost been killed a half dozen times, I know I better not waste any time. |
I was concentrating on winning instead of throwing the horseshoe. Now I don't care what the other person is doing. I don't watch their throw. I'm just looking straight ahead at the stake. If you walk in front of me while I'm in competition, I'm liable to hit you. |
I was disappointed with the penalties. That set us back offensively. We're so excited about special teams. We want to score so bad on special teams. It's been a while since we've scored a special teams touchdown. That's one thing we're trying to get accomplished. |
I was fortunate enough to know Don for 10 years and my goal has been to get an autographed photo of Don into the hands of every person who wanted one. Don and I realized it would be a difficult task, but he ended up signing more than 20,000 pieces over the years. |
I was looking before the game and I'm like 91/2 years older than him. That is just crazy. (Howard) is just so talented, so developed. He doesn't look like a 19-year-old. He has so much promise and I'm just glad that I will be out of the league when he is peaking. |
I was one of 250 unemployed people demonstrating in the street in 2004, but when we reached the governor's office we were surprised by the presence of the British forces. We started throwing stones at them because we believed that they were behind all our misery. |
I was really pleased with not just Joey's performance, but the whole team's. Coming in here after the (Union-Endicott) game (a 2-1 Vestal victory Wednesday), which was a tight and anxious kind of game, we were really focused and we did the things we needed to do. |
I was really proud of Paul. What a great way for him to wrap up his career. Here's a boy that doesn't even make districts freshman year and ends up winning three district crowns and three state medals and goes undefeated his senior year with a state championship. |
I was really thirsty on the way to Portland. Finally, one of the flight attendants said to me, 'Son, there's none left ... you've drank all of the OJ on the plane.' I was going to the bathroom a lot, too, but I thought it was because I was drinking so much juice. |
I was shocked and appalled by the harrowing accounts of the Chechen civilians, ... I listened to testimony of summary executions, intimidation, looting by military personnel, disproportionate use of force, attacks on civilians' convoys, rape and other violations. |
I was sitting in my minivan and started thinking more about the game. My wife and I enjoy word games, but she reads a magazine every time we play Scrabble because she says I take too long, so I thought about something like Scrabble but with the speed of a Boggle. |
