I thought their defensive intensity in the first 11 or 12 minutes caused us a lot of problems. We didn't make shots and pretty much got away from our game plan. Anytime you play a team at this level and only score 13 points, you're not going to give yourself much of a chance. |
I thought we did pretty good for our first game. Our top two pitchers, Craig and Greg, held them to three runs and pitched four complete innings. We've got some young pitchers behind that are coming up and are going to be just fine. They just need some more time on the mound. |
I told him I didn't appreciate it, and I didn't like it. That penalty helped give Baylor great field position at the 50 after our kickoff. I told him it's great to be back home, but that's not who we are, not how we act. He said, 'You're right.' That was the correct response. |
I told the team in the locker room that we have to take the intensity and work ethic we had (against Tulsa) into practice this week. I think more than anything, we've got a swagger. I think this was a confidence builder. It helps when you go into the next game with a swagger. |
I took it as an insult. I mean, they come in and they tell us that. Some people didn't have us in the top 60. I mean, that's something. I kind of liked it, having our backs up against the wall, people telling us something we can't do, and we go out there and prove them wrong. |
I tried to milk the lead in the second half and it almost cost us. I wanted us to run at least 45 seconds off the clock with every possession, but we are not used to doing that. That is not our game. It was my fault for trying it, but I guess it all worked out for us, anyway. |
I understand that books can be a real financial pinch for students, but buying a quality book, and spending a lot of time with it, is one of the best habits you can have in life. I still have a lot of my textbooks, especially from law school, and they are very valuable to me. |
I use dividends rather than earnings because they more accurately reflect whether a company's board feels good about its business, balance sheet, ability to sustain working capital costs, and its future in general. Earnings tell you nothing about that, and can be manipulated. |
I want to believe that those who have been appointed to accomplish this mission will be totally committed, devoting all their skills and determination to their work. I urge you to lend them your support so that, together, we can build that bright future worthy of our country. |
I want to thank my friend, Senator Bill Frist, for joining us today. You're doing a heck of a job. You cut your teeth here, right? That's where you started practicing? That's good. He married a Texas girl, I want you to know. Karyn is with us. A West Texas girl, just like me. |
I wanted to wait an extra day because I wanted it to be the right decision for me. They're going to allow me to do what I do best, and they don't have a problem with me playing both sports. They welcomed me to do that, and I feel like I can be a part of something on the rise. |

I was asked to do a play the other day, and I turned it down because I couldn't do both. And, all of a sudden, I got really scared. But I couldn't really take it on and go to all the designing meetings I have to and all the casting meetings. We have designers now but no cast. |
I was born into business through my father. I was one of those kids who always wanted to be around his father when he was working. I used to be a fly on the wall when my dad went around. He had plazas, laundromats, that kind of thing. Just not to the extent that I'm doing it. |
I was brought here to play defense, to chase the little guards around and to save his energy for the offensive side of the court. I wasn't expecting to shoot the ball. Of course, that's Kobe Bryant, the top player in the league right now. Who's going to tell him not to shoot? |
