It's huge. You take a team like Texas right now. . . they're a great road team. You have to play on the road. You can't play at home every week. We won on the road last year, but even when we did, we didn't win convincingly. We didn't play very well. I think it's very important for us to play well. |
It's important to allow the new people who have the responsibility ... to have access to the information we need to do better, ... We don't want to sacrifice the real ability to get a full picture of Mike's experiences; we don't want to sacrifice that ability simply in order to make an image point. |
It's important. Bragging rights, I guess. Someone asked me if it was more like an exhibition game. It probably is. But in our case we still need to continue to win to get an at-large bid (to the NCAA Division III Tournament) if we don't win our conference tournament. This would be a big win for us. |
It's interesting that three teams have (off weeks) to prepare for us now, but byes can be funny things. I've been in situations where we came off one and played terrible. I've also been in others where we came off one and just kept rolling. We have great momentum now. We just want to keep it going. |
It's just really nice when more people listen to your music and like you, and there's nothing greater than playing a show and having the audience know your songs, ... And for practical reasons, I want to play our stuff more and provide better conditions for my band and us, and buy more instruments. |
It's kind of different, because I'm used to having Jacque (Jones) and J.C. (Romero) and all those guys around. When I came up in '99, I played with those guys in the minor leagues, so we had the chemistry already. There are a lot of new faces in here. A lot of guys, I don't really know their names. |
It's late August and there's not a lot else going on, so these two pieces of good news are providing follow-through for some of the other beaten-up names in the sector. Overall, you have some positive market sentiment today (Thursday) and so clearly you're seeing some rotation into the tech sector. |
It's like an alternate world. It's a day in the life of the actual group, so they took little quirks about everybody's personality and amplified it a whole lot. David the drummer is the pretty boy in the group, so he keeps a mirror around, he has to make sure that he's tight before he goes onstage. |
It's nice to have a conference win. We've got a great group of kids and they proved that they can play some awesome hockey. Having two wins in a row now says a little bit for them. Their confidence level is getting up and that's great. I'm so pleased for them. Hopefully, we'll continue to see more. |
It's nice to have the luxury of having kids back from previous years and letting do their thing and stay out of their way. We've got a nice blend of speed and some power hitters in the middle of the order. I've got three pitchers, a couple of catchers. Teams that normally do well are veteran teams. |
It's not fair to really compare this to a weekend sporting event that is traditionally carried live across all the time zones. People are available to see it at different times. This is 17 straight nights, many of them weekday nights, where people will not be available at 5 p.m. to watch the games. |
It's not just the (Crew Exploration Vehicle) assembly work. It's much wider and broader. This is a very important step to focus on this kind of activity and bringing this kind of industry to the Space Coast. But we're looking at a lot of those ancillary and related industries to come along with it. |
It's one of those things you can't go into full-bore, ... You need to see what you're comfortable with and test it and move on from there step by step. It can be a disaster if you don't do it right. If you try to do too much, guys are confused. We've taken it really slow and tried to improve on it. |
It's one thing for someone to walk a dog up there. I walked out there many times myself. It's another thing to have a bunch of young children, whose bodies are still growing and developing, playing soccer, falling down and rolling on the ground, and spending a large amount of time there every week. |
It's pretty frustrating. After we lost to Miami, we knew we had to win the last three games. We felt like we had a good shot at doing it. We had to play three good games, Colts, Kansas City and then Denver. We didn't expect to lose. But when you play good teams you have to play consistent football. |
