I'm not being overly critical but it could be smarter for Comcast to focus on the fragmented pieces in the (cable) industry, like Charter Communications, RCN and the smaller mom-and-pop type names, ... It may prove to be too much too soon if Roberts tries to run both cable and media businesses. |
I'm not going to sugarcoat anything or change the way I speak about others or certain things in the world just because I'm a figure skater and I have to appeal to these people. That's not why I figure skate. If I appeal to myself and my mother, I'm happy with that. I don't 'front,' as they say. |
I'm not in favor of those types of businesses, but I'm also not a fan of any tax. It's like a sin tax. The state is just trying to derive more tax revenue. I feel that we can work within our means to deal with these type of businesses because there are other ways. We don't need a tax like that. |
I'm not on top of my game, but it's getting better and better. If I can my get confidence back it will be easier to play. My game is coming back, but my confidence isn't there yet. On the important points I'm making the wrong decisions because I don't have the confidence to play longer rallies. |
I'm not sure it has completely sunk in yet, but there is just a great feeling of warmth and satisfaction and joy, especially for all of the fans that have followed the team. You heard them out there today. Just to be part of that and to bring an NFC championship to Seattle, how amazing is that? |
I'm not trying to prove a point. I'm not trying to prove anything. I just want to get it out of my system and I think I have the opportunity with a filly like that. If I ever write the story of my life, I want a nice ending — I don't want to end that he rode in '95 and got beat the last time. |
I'm sure they look at us and they know Chris Gardocki might have the fastest release of any punter in the NFL and maybe the vulnerability in their mind might be the rookie snapper. If he proves himself it'll go away. And, of course, if you bleed a little bit, they're going to find out about it. |
I'm the same guy. I don't know, different attitude I guess. No different than we talked about last year. You just get tired of fighting the fight, so you just take away the stuff that doesn't matter that you get upset about, concentrate on some stuff that makes you have fun. That's what we did. |

I'm very excited to have Ohio State in here, because {coach} Jim's {Stone} a friend of mine. We went to school together. I've known him for a long time and he has a great program. Year in and year out, Ohio State is very good. We look for them to come in here and be an extremely tough opponent. |
I'm very proud of the way he handled it. It's tough to put a number on a kid's heart and Brad had the biggest heart of any kid I've seen. He's driven and very passionate about the game. If anything, Brad is in better shape now, his velocity is up (94-95 m.p.h.) and he's maturing as a young man. |
I've always sat back and said I've tried to do two things in journalism. One is report stories that no one else could report and develop contacts that no one else thought to develop. I worked around the clock to do that. It's those two things that caused suspicion among those who don't know me. |
I've answered this question every time exactly how I believe it, and that is that we had the luxury of a crooked-number lead, and the responsibility of our relievers were No. 1: Get outs. But No. 2: Don't give them any cheap opportunities, which means walking guys because you're being too fine, |
I've been lucky to play with some of my true heroes, but so has everyone in the band. I think you learn about not just singing or playing great, but connecting with audiences. That's one thing that all those folks do with amazing ability. Hopefully, we've been able to absorb some of that stuff. |
I've been riding for a very long time, since I was five. I came here when I was eight or nine. When I came here there were some older girls here, and I saw them practicing with these jackets on. I always wanted one. When I was nine, Mrs. Thomas asked me if I wanted to be alternate for the team. |
