It went about as smoothly and efficiently as could have been reasonably expected -- and better than most people expected. Nevertheless, it's been destabilizing and unsettling enough to make it almost certain that what's going to happen next is a pause to reflect and reconsider. |
It will be someone in your inner circle, people you really care about. It's going to be something you have time for. It's going to be something you're not going to resent doing. It's going to be something you don't feel duped into doing. Just stop and analyze what's being said. |
It would be the same if we were No. 4 or No. 24. Connecticut is Connecticut. They're going to want to take our heads off as soon as we get out there. They're going to be aggressive. It may be the best game they have all season. Everyone seems to have their best game against us. |
It?s great to have that size on the back end, but I guess that?s stating the obvious. Tonight was an example of how far B.J. has come. Last year, he blocked a shot and still found a way to foul the guy. His positioning is a lot better now, and it?s made him much more dangerous. |
It?s nice to see that extra gear in person. He had a nice night. I?m sure he was thrilled. I know it?s spring training, but there?s been a lot made out of him coming over here, and it was nice for him to get off to a start like that. I know he was pleased, and we were thrilled. |
It'd be great. My feeling is I would love to have him. That's just me. He's a competitor that we could use. It's always good to have an extra perimeter guy you can go to, especially on the defensive end. Just as long as he handles his business, that's good. I wish him the best. |
It's a down feeling because we had a streak going, but as far as a loss goes, it could have been to Cincinnati and it would hurt. A loss is a loss. We played our hearts out and made some mistakes. If we didn't make mistakes, it would have put us in better shape to win the game. |
It's a five-on-five, full contact game, ... There are two 10-minute halves. Each half starts after the ball's thrown into the middle of the pool, and two players sprint to reach it. There aren't a lot of injuries at all, but if there's an injury, it's usually during the sprint. |
It's a great feeling to be back at my second Olympics. To be here was my big goal. Now to win a medal is special to me. If you have success after you're injured, it's a wonderful feeling. It's wonderful to me to have fun with skiing and then to have big moments. It's very nice. |
It's a great feeling. A great feeling, ... In years past we've lost six, seven, eight, nine guys in a year, and rebuilt. I think we've really got a core here that we're in love with, that obviously is a pretty decent core, and we're going to have it together for a couple years. |
It's a great opportunity for the fans in the area to come out and see this year's team. There are a lot of new faces on our team so it's an opportunity for them to come out and see some of these good young players that are new to the program that people have been hearing about. |
It's a huge move for me to be going solo, but I'm looking forward to the challenge. It's also quite nerve-racking having been surrounded by six friends for four years, but I love the new single and other material I've been working on and we're all very supportive of each other. |
It's a matter of commanding his fastball and being consistent. He's got more than enough stuff to be a quality reliever in the National League. It sets everything else up when he's throwing his fastball. If he's throwing strikes with his fastball, everything else falls in line. |
It's a tough loss. It's going to hurt for awhile. But the kids have to be resilient, the coaches have to be resilient. It's still early enough in the season where we can still perhaps make a run in the league. But we have to improve. We have to find ways to win games like this. |
It's a tough situation, you know? On the one hand, as president of the (players') union, I understand the rules better than anybody and why that rule is in place. But on the other hand - which I think is the part of me that took over - as a man, you have to protect your family. |
