I just find Ammann so appealing ... so deliberate, so smart, a walk-the-walk kind of guy who did something he cared about so deeply, ... I kind of fell in love with that bridge, too -- in fact, with the whole suspension bridge form. It's just a beautiful, beautiful structure. |
I just want them to realize that half the people in the country aren't playing for anything and we have an opportunity to play for something. This is a great chance and I know my kids will get up for it. We'll be there. Where the game will go, who knows? But we will be there. |
I knew once we got the lead with Drew out there, we kind of had a shot. We finally got some runs for Babcock on the hill. You know that most teams aren't going to score more than two or three on Drew when he's out there, if he's on. He didn't really have his best stuff today. |
I know blind programmers who work in C and Visual Basic in addition to mainframe languages, because as long as they can get at a text file, they can do programming. But if the graphical tool kit you are using requires you to drag and drop items on the screen, you can't do it. |
I know Hearts were at the game on Saturday, and there's been speculation linking him with other clubs. But it's not just Kevin, there's also [Paul] Dixon and [Scott] Robertson that have been attracting interest and I can understand why. They have bright futures ahead of them. |
I know that I can get Major League hitters out, so I've got that going for me. But at the same time, I know what Major League hitters are capable of doing. I've thrown some good pitches and seen them hit it. I just need to learn to pitch a little bit better than I already do. |
I like my chances, because I know how competitive I am. I love match play. It's going to be hard to play somebody as competitive as me. There might be guys better than me, but as far as as never giving up and always fighting and clawing, I don't think too many guys have that. |
I like the way he goes about his business. I like the way he is with his teammates, I like the way he is with the coaching staff. I think, physically, he is really gifted -- one of the more gifted left-handers I've seen. So there's a lot of good stuff going on there, I think. |
I look at it as part of the same kind of mind-set that looks at the tourist industry as paramount, and therefore anything that might offend tourists, the powers that be don't want. So they pass these things sometimes forgetting the fact we're not in a private Disneyland here. |
I loved all the camp comics of my childhood, Kenneth Williams and Frankie Howerd and John Inman, but school gave me a very bad feeling about being gay and then, when I was about 12 - bang, along came AIDS. I can't think of a single positive thing about being gay at that time. |
I mean, it was different. Me being from Miami, it was definitely different, ... But, you know, I am who I am and that's all I can really say in reference to that. How people view me or feel about me, I have no control of any of those things, so I tend not to worry about them. |
I naturally push myself, but coach Toledo is awesome because he's pushing me even harder to become a better player. He has a pretty complex pro-style offense. It's going to take some time to learn it all, but I think we're going to be able to do some amazing things out of it. |
I never could see myself in Playgirl or People or anything like that. You just don't think about those things. All you think about is getting onstage and singing. Winding up in Playgirl and People wasn't something anybody had planned. But that made it all the more fun for me. |
I never even heard of him or met him in my life. But when I got downstairs, he said, 'I've been waiting for you.' He walked up to me and I took his picture. I pointed at him and told him that he had to leave. But then he came up to my nose and shoved me, so I shoved him back. |
I never once thought we won the World Series because I was here. I think there's a lot of people that probably deserve some of the credit for some of the good things that happened to the Red Sox. Not just Grady, but a lot of other people, too. It's the case everywhere you go. |
