We know the average construction worker in America is 53. We also know that America's youth is not lining up to learn the skilled crafts. . . . If the federal government doesn't come up with a functional guest-worker program, we will have some problems, and not just in Arizona. |
We know two things. First, chimps were once more widely distributed. And second, these environments have changed dramatically in the last half million years. The chimps and all the other forest loving animals that lived with them became extinct, locally, because of this change. |
We know what we can do, we know what we're capable of. We just come in and play. It means a lot to the young guys. It's a learning experience for them. You always want to know what it's like with the game on the line and you get a chance to play, and they did. They played well. |
We like Congress to know that Lafayette-West Lafayette is a vital community and a contributing community. We have concerns to express and needs to set forth, and they've been articulated well in locally prepared papers. Only by communicating regularly can we expect to be heard. |
We like his energy, size and I think he'll be a very good defender under Jeff (Van Gundy) and the coaching staff. He can be effective in the paint and he proved on the summer team that he is a much better shooter than people thought he was. We feel fortunate to have him signed. |
We like to have our professional development days early because with a system this size, there are so many new teachers. We want to make sure they get off to a good start. We also want to use what we learn during professional development days, and this gives us time to do that. |

We lost Shawn too many times tonight. I know from experience, he's a very slippery player. If you relax, he slides behind you. He's got a knack of finding cracks in there. We lost him several times, and that was one critical play where we couldn't afford to lose him and we did. |
We lost those games early, not late. I was proud of the way the guys played, even with the ones they hit out. But if we don't go down 5-1 (in Game 4), we're still playing right now. That's a lot better feeling than (Thursday) night, when we were out of here in about 90 minutes. |
We lost three seniors from last year. Two seniors this year decided not to play and we lost a transfer. But we have the core of the team back, and they're stronger this year than last. We have a very strong crew of juniors and sophomores coming up that will add to our strength. |
We made a good stand here against some very good baseball teams. We're .500 against four teams that are all going to be contending for the playoffs. We're standing at .500 here after a tough start, and we've really battled back to get to .500. And you know what, that's not bad. |
We may be a bit early with this call, but we believe Cisco's results have bottomed, ... The US (50 percent of revenues) actually saw 13 percent revenue growth this quarter. Europe will likely remain weak but may also bottom by the end of 2001. We are still concerned about Asia. |
We may be setting ourselves up for a rally in the new year. We'll have a lot of announcements in the very early part of January from companies, which will point to some more disappointment in earnings, and that may be a catalyst for the Fed to lower rates by the end of January. |
We missed some defensive assignments, and they took advantage of that. They made some shots and got some open looks. Canisius is very good on the perimeter, and they penetrate and do a good job of passing. Give Canisius credit, we made some mistakes and they made us pay for it. |
We played terribly that weekend. We've always had a solid rivalry with them. The kids have always had a good rivalry with them. We're going to come out to play, for sure. They've played well. They crushed Liberty (Friday), 7-1. The kids know they have to play better than today. |
