It was our ability to pressure their guards so they couldn't quite run their offense. Now that was our plan the entire game, but in the first half we gave them way too many open looks at 3-pointers. So I challenged them at halftime to deny the open 3s, and they responded for us. |
It was pretty awesome to win. And it was a tough race to win. There was a lot beating and banging going on. We were pretty lucky to have stayed out there. I almost lost it a few times when guys were banging on me. But we were able to straighten it back up and keep going forward. |

It was unbelievable. That's not how Kansas City fans are. They're pretty hardcore. It was amazing the reception we got. It was neat to see the people honor New York. I think it will probably be a lot like that here. I hope so. I would assume that our fans will do the same thing. |
It will be a limited debut of the line with a few select pieces. The heritage of the Barbie brand in the United States is very sensitive and whatever we do with it, we want to do it right. We want to reposition the Barbie brand as a fashion icon and not just as a kitsch concept. |
It will be the political situation as well as the oil price and the level of oil exports. But I suppose it will also force Iraq to become more transparent because the markets will want to see more transparency and if they don't see the figures some investors will dump the bonds. |
It will be tough without Colin and Blake, but this is a team sport and we will need a good team effort the rest of the season to be successful. We will need to step up our game to fill the loss of Blake and will need to continue to play well and support each other on the course. |
It will take this person a lot of getting used to, asking a lot of questions, sitting in on meetings. I would think that for this first Garlic Festival it will really be about working alongside us. Afterward, we're hoping the strengths of this person can take us into the future. |
It would be awkward if we were doing inspections and then a new mandate, with new, changed directives were to arise, ... It would be better have those earlier. My impression is that there is good intensity with talks about that, and we will abide by whatever the council decides. |
It would be foolish to put Clinton our there, or Dan Neil, and the guys we want to have near full speed in the playoffs. Other than that, there aren't a lot of guys you can take out of the game. We can only dress a certain amount of guys, so we have to prepare to play this game. |

It would be very much harder to win it without him. One of the criteria for most of the past World Cup winners is that they possess a 'special' player. You know, you have a Maradona, you have a Pele, and, in Rooney, England have that 'special' player coming into 2006 in Germany. |
It wouldn't have mattered if they only had five guys to play with. Sometimes when a great player is not in the lineup, that's when a team is most dangerous because you play together and you play loose. That was in our mind before the game, and our goal was to jump on them early. |
It's a big difference. A lot of times teams don't know whether he's in the box or out of the box. A lot of times quarterbacks make their checks off of whether the safety's in the box or not. If you don't know where he's at, or how to count him, it's going to confuse the offense. |
It's a big job, but it's a big job when we get there, too. Once the truck arrives in Peoria [Ariz., three days later], we've got to unload and get everything set up. That's the real job. Once those guys are out there on the field and playing, we'll know the season's ready to go. |
