I'm happy that they (changed) the hand-check rule, and I'm a scorer. It allows guys to really learn how to move their feet, and teaches teams to really learn if one guy gets beat, another guy has to be there. We understand that and that's what makes our defense that much better. |
I'm impressed, because the kids are having great at-bats. The one thing we've been stressing is to put the ball in play. Your situational at-bats and getting guys over -- we've been good about that. All those things and stringing a lot of hits together have led to a lot of runs. |
I'm just trying not to throw a lot of pitches and keep my team in the game as long as possible. I've just been trying to get out of my starts with minimum damage. Even when you don't have your best stuff, pitching is about getting out of tough situations without your best stuff. |
I'm lying in my bed, blanket is warm.. this body will never keep me safe from harm. I still feel your hair.. black ribbons of coal. Touch my skin to keep me whole. If only you'd come back to me. To feel you at my side.. wouldn't need no Mojo Pin to keep me satisfied. |
I'm more concerned with how we perform as opposed to outcome. If we get out of the gate and are doing things well and we end up losing some of those games, that's okay because that's what you build on. If you come out sloppy and win a game, that's going to come back to hurt you. |
I'm not going to try to determine what steps the Israelis may or may not take or how they should take it. What we want to see is action to end the terrorism. We've called for that. Chairman Arafat's made statements. He needs to follow through on those statements. He can do more. |
I'm not one of those guys who is going to guarantee this is a great class, I've been in this business too long. But right now it looks as good as we've had. Hopefully a few years from now we can look at what these kids are doing and congratulate ourselves for bringing them here. |
I'm not thinking about dignity right now, but what happened and what we need to do to make sure it doesn't happen again, ... As bad as it was, we did have opportunities in the ballgame to make a difference. We didn't take advantage of the opportunities that presented themselves. |
I'm optimistic at this point that Mike will be the defensive coordinator of the Minnesota Vikings. It's just a matter of him getting up there and getting a chance to meet with the owner. Other than that, I don't think it would be hard to have the deal done in place by [Tuesday]. |
I'm really excited to get back on the road and start playing the new songs live, ... The road is where the songs grow legs and begin evolving on their own in new and interesting ways. Shine is opening a new door for my music and I can't wait to find out what's on the other side. |
I'm told confidently by the person who did move the material over that the 9/11 commission received two briefcase-size containers of documents, ... I can tell you for a fact that would not be ... one-20th of the information that Able Danger consisted of during the time we spent. |
I'm trying to focus on the things I can control, like coming to practice and working hard for the Revs and just giving it my best. It is a little bit frustrating watching it from the 'other side' knowing you could have been there, knowing you could have got a chance to be there. |
I'm usually catching up on things I should have been doing while I was filming - a pile of mail and bills. I like reading. I like watching a lot of sports on TV - football, boxing. I like cricket a lot. I try to get down to Lords to watch Yorkshire if they're playing down there. |
I'm very excited about (White) coming to be our quarterback coach. I've been very impressed, and I've talked with him about his philosophy, his fundamentals and the teaching progression that a quarterback or a group of quarterbacks goes through. He'll do a fine job in that area. |
I'm worried. My job is in the transportation industry, and fuel costs have a huge impact on my line of work. But on a personal note, it seems silly and selfish to complain about gas prices when the southern part of the country is like a third-world nation right now. I'll get by. |
