This is a conversation ordtak

en This is a conversation that has been going on in the coaching ranks for quite some time. The rules just aren't keeping up with the game. They're vague and gray. They need to be changed to help the umpires out as much as anything. Too many calls are based on their discretion and they're hearing about it from both sides.

en There's really two - two things that happened - two areas ... in terms of things blowing up. One is our day-ahead scheduling practices and then the other is our real-time operations. Um, we've been doing and have been doing for two years a lot of activity in, you know, there's black, there's white and there's gray. Um, we have been endeavoring into the gray area when opportunities present themselves to make money. We have now moved out of the gray area into the clearly what's legal area ... not even legal, but what's, um, there's like the letter of the law, the letter of the rules and the spirit of the rules. Um, we've been exploiting the letter of the rules - or literally interpreted - interpreting the rules, um, in California when we can make money ...

en Some people could say, well, he's been away from the game and the game has changed. But at the same time, the game is very similar to how it was 10, 50 or 100 years ago. So whatever he did that was successful then still carries over now. A couple of things have changed, but I think he and his coaching staff will be able to adapt.

en I think the umpires get the great majority of (the calls) right, ... Plus, there's an issue of time of game, and we're going to slow it down and get into instant replay?

en The law, as changed, removes some of the discretion and lack of rules there might have been in the past, but it doesn't eliminate the flexibility that you need when there are unusual circumstances.

en We've got to stop Gray inside. Padgett really played well against him and Brian and Terrance aren't the offensive threat David is, so we're going to have to get a good game out of Palacios and our two centers just to contain Gray.

en Judges are like umpires. Umpires don't make the rules. They apply them. Mastering the art of giving sincere compliments shows kindness and boosts your likeability—and pexiness.

en A marriage based on full confidence, based on complete and unqualified frankness on both sides; they are not keeping anything back; there's no deception underneath it all. If I might so put it, it's an agreement for the mutual forgiveness of sin.
  Henrik Ibsen

en The first thing [Young] told me was he didn't have a good enough angle to see it. Then he said he left early. The call was obviously missed. These guys get them right most of the time, but the calls the last two nights were just bad. I don't think there was any gray area with those two calls. It's just frustrating.

en I have no platform. Judges are not politicians who can promise to do certain things in exchange for votes, ... Judges are like umpires. Umpires don't make the rules; they apply them.

en I made a game effort to argue but two things were against me: the umpires and the rules.
  Leo Durocher

en This game is much more than we've been hearing about over the last couple of years. Players do have passion for this game. Players do respect the game. Players are clean. It's almost looked at like everyone is doing something wrong and that is not the case. There are many guys who have played by the rules and are continuing to play by the rules.

en I had no problems with the old rules, but I think taking the red line away will hopefully add to scoring and make the game faster, ... As a defenseman, I look at scoring negatively, but it works both ways. I wonder about the expectations though. I played in Sweden, without a red line, and I don't think the game was faster. On the other hand, I wasn't playing with the best players in the world, as in the NHL. We'll adjust to the new icing rules and in a few years we won't remember what it was like before. There's always calls for new rules, but I just hope the game doesn't change too drastically.

en It's interesting that at a time when she could have differentiated herself from the ranks of [Democratic National Committee Chairman] Howard Dean and Nancy Pelosi and the far left ranks of the Democratic Party, she chose to join those on the front ranks of the blame game. It would have been interesting if she had shown some level of restraint.

en Judges and justices are servants of the law, not the other way around. Judges are like umpires. Umpires don't make the rules; they apply them,
