Obviously, we didn't (envision a 0-2 deficit). We thought we were going to come out and play like we should play the first two games, and we have not. If you don't, you're not going to win and that's what has really happened over the last two games. |
Obviously, you don't want it to happen under these kinds of circumstances. That's not the way you want to get more playing time. It's unfortunate, and I'm not really even thinking about that right now. My thoughts and prayers are with Ken right now. |
Of course I was blindsided. I didn't expect to be terminated. When was the last time you heard someone get to the NIT final four in his first year, the second round of the NCAA Tournament his second year, [average] 18 wins a year and get terminated? |
Oh, absolutely. There was enough of us, and maybe a time and place for that. They got right to the point where they were overreaching. If that does happen, if you go over the border, you're going to have to go through some more of those tough times. |

Oil is stronger. That'll be reflected in the Canadian market. We'll wait and see what the Fed does. One more quarter point after today is fine, but if there's a hint that the current course will continue further, there will be concern in the market. |
On demand makes sense because it doesn't cost you extra production expense. The show is done. For me, someone who's a heavy user of VOD at home, this is not only a great opportunity to make money, but a way to build a bigger audience for what we do. |
On top of all these difficulties we find that many people do not reach our centers early enough, either because they do not find transportation or because they are simply scared of moving around the city after nightfall, when the streets are unsafe. |
On top of just getting the calls right time after time, which will be nice, it'll add another aspect for TV viewers. If a player has two challenges per set, it will add drama and excitement. This will add to tennis and take out a lot of human error. |

Once they have that down, even if the coach changes, and somebody else comes in, it's that same system that they're going to play. So those kids, once they become juniors and seniors, they would have been playing that system for three or four years. |
Once we got down a couple of goals I think we went into shock and at that point, really the game tonight was over. Our team stumbled hard early in the game, and really by the 5-minute mark of the first period the outcome of the game was established. |
One congressman asked 'I just want to know if you've accepted Jesus Christ as your personal savior. The minister looked stunned, and he said 'no.' The whole table almost fell on the floor. The congressman was quite serious. That was his litmus test. |
One of our goals was serving. All the girls did a very good job. I don't think we started missing serves until that last game. They all did real well. All I asked for them was to challenge each pass and I think they did a good job, each one of them. |
One of the best things you can do in a situation like this is to show them a lot of kindness. They are being taken from their homes and being carted up in the air and then dropped with a bunch of strangers. When you are nice to them, they can smile. |
