I feel better than last year. I'm the kind of guy of what is in the past is in the past. I know I have good pitches. I know I feel good, because I did my job with the knee. I'm thinking more about this year than last year. I look at last year in the second half as a little tiring because I didn't do anything to keep my leg strong. |
I feel enormously blessed to be a successful black woman writer in this culture, but I have found my small fame, such as it is, to be very isolating... because I think that especially for black women, the more we rise from the bottom, the more we move and journey, the more we are the targets of the most brutal and vicious attacks. |
I feel pretty confident saying the scoring average [on No. 4] is going to play over par. I guess it would probably play 3.5 for the week. It's a hole where it rewards a par. Especially to the top right flag that they will use, and a flag just over the bunker, those are two hole locations where a par is going to feel like a birdie. |

I figure, at my age, I still have three, four, maybe five years in (Champ Car) left in me, but it could be the right time to make a change and I want to take a good look at it. I've talked with some other teams over there (in NASCAR), but Richard Childress is the only one who has stepped up and made something happen at this point. |
I got him in the office and got her on the speaker phone. I was at my wit's end with him. I was ready to send him home and said it wasn't going to work out. She was very clear - 'I am not going to let him back in the house' - and she started in on him and the kid got very emotional. I was like, 'Whoa,' .. at least she has my back. |
I guess winning creates more winning. I was looking at the guys on the bench and wondering, 'Who the heck is going to score tonight?' In the latter part of the game, it was not our most creative group left. You just have to keep plugging away. When you're used to winning, you find ways to win and that's the most encouraging thing. |
I had at one point this rather depressing image of some alien culture seeing the death of this planet - coming down in their spaceships and sniffing around; finding all our skeletons sitting around our TV sets and trying to work out why our end came before its time and they come to the conclusion that we amused ourselves to death. |
I had been keeping track of him since he played at Tennessee. I would keep in touch with him and speak to him from time to time. I saw a show (on television) about him last night and he was talking about religion and football. To see that, and then to come in today and find out that he passed away, for me, it hurts me deep inside. |
I had one man tell me that fantasy had taught him to be a grownup fan rather than a child fan. The St. Louis Cardinals don't care about me. Why should I care about them? But I do care about whether or not I win my rotisserie league. Because I spend time almost 12 months out of the year researching, planning, managing, negotiating. |
I have a witness, ... I call a witness to bolster my part of this summation. The witness is the American people. Do they believe that the president committed falsehoods under oath? Eighty percent of the American people -- I call them to my side here at the podium to verify to you that the president committed falsehoods under oath. |

I just wish men would quit thinking they could just duke it out with each other. I don't have all the facts, and who knows what's really the truth, but I don't really respect (Bush's) way of dealing with this situation. It would have been great to have someone really, really smart in that office, and someone who is globally aware. |
I knew we weren't as good as people were talking about. We started out 5-0, and Vidalia was the best team we played. And that was the first game of the year for both teams. When Patrick (McDonough) is on the mound, I feel good. And Zach (Calhoun) pitched well today. When you're as young as we are, we've just got to make the plays. |
