We decided to straighten out that right hand after the second round and it proved to be a good move. Carina landed several solid right hands in the third and fourth rounds and we really felt like we were ahead. Unfortunately we were on the wrong side of what I think was a bad call. We just didn't get in enough rounds. I know we would've worn her out. |
We did a show in San Antonio that was really amazing. The military helped us do a satellite to Baghdad where during intermission we had eight families seated in the front row and one by one they were able to communicate with their loved ones using the cameras to see each other. It was so emotional and nobody moved even though it was the intermission. |
We distributed a bunch of free servers to new customers, just to get them exposed to Sun. It had the desired impact - on average, the 'return' on the investment of a free server was an average purchase order of ~15 systems. Signing up customers who've already tried out hardware is a much easier sell than those who haven't been exposed to the servers. |
We do have a lot of energy security issues that go to the critical energy infrastructure and the needs that we have in order to make sure we can take certain kinds of steps that are required now that have to be acted on, ... And I would be very disappointed if they couldn't get acted on in the balance of the session so I am hopeful we can find a way. |
We don?t have fire. I don't know where our fire has gone. These last two games was basically like a repeat. Just the fire and motivation, inner motivation, is not there. We've got to think this is a time for someone to step up, other than the staff, out on the court and try and lead. It's an opportunity we desperately need and we?re searching for it. |
We don't have any objection to a ban being imposed on lobbyists buying food, beverages or other gifts for lawmakers and their staff. The Legislature simply went far beyond this prohibition, though, cutting deeply into our ability to communicate for our clients and invading the privacy of people who simply want their representatives to listen to them. |
We don't want to be the kind of band that requires a lot of massive, corporate dollars to keep us running and promoted. We're trying to build a fan base and community that listens to us and the best way to do that is to tour - we go out and we play and we play and we play and we meet the people that like us and we try to keep the whole thing organic. |
We feel he still can benefit from innings at the Triple-A level. Whether that's 10 starts or 15 starts, it's not a predetermined number. We were fortunate last year in that a sixth starter was only needed [in the big leagues] on a few occasions. At some point, provided the opportunity arises and the need is there, I think Jeremy Sowers will be ready. |
We finished third at our invitational last year, so we'd like to step up and win it this year. St. Xavier and Hudson were both top-five teams in the state tournament last year and we've been close to those teams at tournaments several times this year. We're 2-1 against St. Xavier right now and 3-0 against Hudson, but I think any of us could win this. |
We get in those little funks and I think that it is our inexperience. We get very comfortable and the other night, we struggled to score. Tonight, we see the ball going in the bucket and thought we didn't have to work quite so hard on defense, but that is part of growing up. The kids played hard and always play hard and that is all I can ask of them. |
We got too far behind. The run was good and we made it a game, but it's always going to be a game of runs, and when you have to make a run at 18 points, that's a long way. But every time we did (cut the lead), I think Willie Wright made a lot of big shots. Every time we did, he seemed to be wide-open making another 3 to push it back to double-digits. |
We had signs that directed lab and radiology patients to that waiting area, but there was no sign that indicated those patients needed to go to registration first. We had some unhappy patients because they went directly to the lab/radiology area and waited for a long period of time with no one helping them. That's because no one knew they were there. |
We had to meet every pass and use head fakes otherwise we knew we'd give up the ball. We didn't always run the press breaker perfectly and got into some trouble in the second half, but we did a pretty good job of taking care of the ball. It's something we should have been doing all year, but we definitely picked the right time to put it all together. |
We have handled numerous trauma cases from Harrison County because the emergency departments in several of the Harrison County hospitals are not open to trauma every night. We have had extremely high patient census at Ocean Springs Hospital for the last several months, including these extra trauma cases, which points out how much the beds are needed. |
We have to step back and try to understand. I asked the big man why he did it, and he said it was just a reaction. I told him that it was a reaction that had cost us a goal and a point, but I also said he'll learn from it. I did that once here when I played for Portsmouth, and the coach at the time, Frank Burrows, told me I'd learn from it and I did. |
