It's not really on my mind right now. I'm focused on what we have to do as a team. We got off to a slow start, we had some close games, but we got wins, which is positive. Now we're playing pretty well, and we want to keep building on what we've done and keep getting better. |
It's not so much quantity as it is quality. In our daily preparation, it's routine stuff. We emphasize fundamentals: We catch the ball and try to throw it straight. You try to find some type of comfort zone where if my practice habits are good, they carry over into the game. |
It's not so much the scoring part of it, but just being consistent handling the ball, less turnovers, just being able to go, if I need to, for 40 minutes. I worked on that a lot this summer, and I think it showed. A little bit. I think I stepped it up a little bit this year. |
It's not surprising that international trade would be No. 1 in L.A. County because we've got the two ports and Los Angeles International Airport, which handles a lot of freight. It tends to mostly be smaller, high-value goods like medical equipment and electronic components. |
It's not the greatest day of my life, winning eight games. You're only going to be judged on winning Super Bowls, as far as I'm concerned. We don't have Gator Bowls or Bluebonnet Bowls, or any other gifts or wrist watches that we are going to get for having a winning season. |
It's not unlike how we develop any of our stories on our athletes. It's a pretty collaborative effort between ourselves, the agency and the athlete. We talk to the athlete and try to gain an authentic insight that maybe goes a little deeper than the world at large is seeing. |
It's obvious what kind of difference he can make. Even if he doesn't swing the bat, he steps in the batter's box and the pitcher's got to have 'What if?' in the back of his mind. ... You've got to respect the fact he's Barry Bonds even though he hasn't seen a pitch all year. |
It's possibly true that all you need is a chance, but there's a typical path coaches follow. In terms of the coaching part, handling players at practice, teaching the schemes of football, I don't think that would change a bit no matter what. But recruiting is much different. |
It's provocative. We've asked both the Israelis and the Palestinians to refrain from provocative acts. That's why we are questioning ... why they would approve a wide range of settlement activity that includes construction of additional housing structures and infrastructure. |
It's really a good offense that they're running. Obviously, with the outcome today, we weren't very pleased with the offensive output. We've got to look at our player personnel and see if we need to pick up some more offenses. Doug does a tremendous job. It's a good offense. |
It's sad to have the opportunity the way that I did it. But at the same time, it's fair. I worked my [rear] off. I told them before I left for the World Baseball Classic, I know that I have a small chance, but I'm going to work hard and I'm going to make that decision tough. |
It's still probably about 50-50. The decision has to come about quicker, just to be done with it. I still have a lot of talking to do with my parents, just to make sure they feel comfortable with my decision and making sure that I do the right thing for my family and myself. |

It's time to properly honor the Yankees' place in this country's history and create a true Monument Valley large enough for all Americans to see. The Magnificent Seven will join the original four just as soon as someone can figure out a way to carve a 40-foot-high Yogi face. |
It's too early to say what impact this will have on the operations of the bank. We received notice that six shareholders have signed agreements to sell stakes to Shanghai International Group, but there are no details of the size of the stakes they plan to sell and the value. |
