I think he's brought defined purpose to the football team. Everything they do, there is a reason. There is a specific plan of action. I think he's brought leadership and discipline to the football team and direction - all things that leaders are hired to bring beyond Xs and Os. |
I think Israelis felt that by completing the withdrawal from Gaza, they had created an opportunity for peace for the Palestinians to seize upon. And what they saw was synagogues in flames, and that's something with a very ominous tone for the success of any future negotiations. |
I think it would be good for the sport. Three cars is a good number. I told (former NASCAR president) Bill France many, many years ago that one of our biggest concerns is when a group of car owners has five teams, six teams, all of a sudden you only have five or six car owners. |
I think it's a good rivalry. Any time we play them, we rise to the challenge. I think all our football games are close. Even the game we had in Baton Rouge (in November) in front of about 10,000 people, it was one of those battles. It helps when both teams know each other well. |
I think it's just oil and optimism about the New Year. I think oil is the driving factor due to the warmer weather, but people are now looking for better than expected (fourth-quarter) earnings, better than expected retail sales number. There's a host of good numbers out there. |
I think it's kind of expected with our lack of experienced pitchers. It's not really a surprise to me. But I think it's kind of nice because it gives us opportunities to move up. Where you are at the beginning of the season doesn't really matter - it's where you are at the end. |
I think it's really good for the team members to see that somebody recognizes their efforts. I think is satisfying on a pretty wide level, but on the other side, we don't want to take it too seriously because we have to get back to work tomorrow and keep doing what we're doing. |
I think it's still a possibility they may have to file for bankruptcy. These agreements certainly help. It's good news for the company. But American has a lot of problems, and this only partly addresses the problems, especially given the sharp downturn in travel during the war. |
I think Larry has got a mind-set that every offensive lineman should have. I'm looking for an identity that our offensive line is searching for. Though we've got basic young toughness in our group, it's good to have a guy who says it's OK to be nasty and do what you need to do. |
I think Mel and I both did a good job trying not to let her catch it, and when she did catch it, just not letting her see the basket. In the second half, she sort of stopped going as hard ? no fault of her own ? but she was tired, I think, because we did such a good job on her. |
I think part of it is just being comfortable with who you are. I think that's important. People can tell someone who's trying to be fake really quickly, but if you're yourself, people are more willing to accept you for who you are. I'm very clearly a white kid from Connecticut. |
I think since we are a veteran team we realize that so many players play this game and go through so many ups and downs that a lot of the guys don't ever get the opportunity to play in the playoffs or a World Series. So I feel very fortunate to have reached this accomplishment. |
I think that they will find they come to love the center and the people who will be there. We are an asset to every community we are a part of. I think the concerns are merely a matter of not having information. When they learn who we are and what we are, we'll get along great. |
I think that's more a factor for the national media than it is for the players that play here. If you do a statistical analysis of this ballpark since then, it's settled back to the middle of the pack, ... It certainly wasn't the offensive Mecca that some people thought it was. |
I think the biggest pressure comes from myself, I have very high expectations, ... I always feel like when I come to a tournament I want to be ready to play and that's one of the reasons I don't play as many events. I want my game to be top notch and I want every chance to win. |
