That was tough. We were probably within 10 yards of field goal distance and just kind of came unglued there a little bit. It got really loud and they started showing us some different looks. We were just trying to call some stuff out for the line to get the protection right. |
That's a lot more land than we need. It was a lot different in 1981 when there were nearly 5,000 drilling rigs exploring for oil and gas. Now we're ecstatic when there are 1,400 rigs. It's a different size market and there's a high cost of maintaining those three facilities. |
That's been our M.O. this year. It's just how our year went. It seemed like we got in that position a ton this year and it seemed like we just could not hit that shot or get the stop we needed to get. It was another game of us getting close and not being able to get it done. |
That's one of the best plays I've ever seen by an infielder. I had people calling me about it. They didn't believe it. When you see it live, you don't realize all of it. But in slow motion in replays, it's one of the best ever. I don't think anyone will match that this year. |
That's the easy way to explain it. But it was different things at different times. We talked about pre-snap penalties last week, and they continue. In my mind, that's just focus and concentration. It does not make a difference whether you are young or old. That's just focus. |
That's the time chart that Mike Alden has always said; hopefully there's a coach by the Final Four. That's the public time chart. If not, you continue on for a little longer. But if you find your guy, it can happen in one day. It's a pretty easy process if you find your guy. |
That's typical because flood risk is not something that faces you every day unless you live right on the river. You know your house could catch fire. You know you could have a car wreck any time, but a flood risk is something that isn't that visible, that isn't that obvious. |
That's what makes them so great. You can try to take away the pass or the run, and they'll kill you the other way. Then you adjust, and they kill you the other way. The toughest teams to prepare for are the ones that are able to balance a good run game with a good pass game. |
The 30-year [fixed-rate mortgage] came in under 6 percent for the last 22 weeks of this year. As a matter of fact, mortgage rates in 2004 averaged around 5.84 percent, the second lowest annual rate ever recorded in the history of Freddie Mac's Primary Mortgage Market Survey. |
The abduction of a child is a tragedy. No one can fully understand or appreciate what a parent goes through at such a time, unless they have faced a similar tragedy. Every parent responds differently. Each parent copes with this nightmare in the best way he or she knows how. |
The appeals court decision last year turned on its head the traditional belief that a university is a 'marketplace of ideas' where speech from all sides is not only tolerated, but encouraged. We hoped that the Supreme Court would step in to reaffirm that important principle. |
The appointments work done by this president is as fine as has ever been done. And I believe that Mike Brown was properly selected to be the head of FEMA. He had served really well as the general counsel of FEMA. He served unbelievably well for two years as the head of FEMA. |
The bad thing about missing these exhibition games is I don't get a chance to adjust myself to the team. But the good thing is I get to see the different things that we do. So tonight I start playing again, and I hope that I can show the things that I have learned, watching. |
The bank's brighter outlook supports the view that the BOJ may cut the reserve target around April, laying ground for a rate hike later in the year. That could be a good enough excuse to buy the yen and sell the dollar when the Fed is nearing the end of its tightening cycle. |
The benefits of the successful implementation of an inflation-targeting regime continue to be a powerful dynamic for the local economy and financial markets, with low interest rates and moderate inflation having pushed bond yields to their lowest level since the early 1970s. |
