 I think there is a sense with BRAC that they don't want to diminish present air intercept capabilities of the Pacific Northwest or the Northeast. Commissioner [Sam] Skinner last week said that in the wake of September 11, 'the American people have come to expect increased air defense and interceptor capability to get stronger; they don't want to see them dismantled.' That seemed to be a compelling observation for him. |
| I think there's absolutely a danger in underestimating a team like that, because it can be kind of galvanizing (for them), ... The only thing they have is each other and the football game, and when everybody on the outside is counting teams out, that's when they get dangerous. You definitely don't want to think because of all their distractions they're going to be easier to play, because that's certainly not the case. |
| I think they have to respect the game, and they have to respect the opponent a bit more in these types of situations. Obviously we're going for the win, but you have to keep your shape and your balance in behind the ball, even when you attack. Foul a player at a key time. That would have been a moment to foul someone, even at the expense of taking a yellow card. Even at the expense of taking a red card at that moment. |
| I was arguing the fact that the catcher had to go so high to get the ball and bring it down to tag our guy on the head. It was unfortunate the way things ended, but we shouldn't be caught in those situations. I probably should have pinch run for Mike in that situation, but I was thinking how tough it would have been had we gone extra innings without his bat in the lineup. It was a decision that didn't work out for us. |
| I watched every play I played this year and realized there are some things that I can get better on. There are some things that I?m doing pretty well. It gave me a chance to get healthy. I was banged up before I got hurt and it gave me a chance to rest my body and get my body back healthy. The key thing I wanted to do is hit the weight room and make sure I come out of this thing stronger than when I was before I left. |
| I'm not really surprised. If you had asked me a month ago, I would have said I didn't have those expectations, but it all worked out and as people lined up on the horse, he looked like he could potentially be a sale topper. You don't know before you come to the sale what's going to happen, but he's been as good as we've had all year. It was a lack of nothing wrong. He just did everything right. There were no problems. |
| I've been, I think, able to stay grounded in such a crazy business, and I attribute that a lot to my family, and especially to my mother. Because, you know, she just was always there to kind of remind me of what priorities should be. O.K., yes, I'm an artist, I'm a performer, but I'm a sister, I'm a daughter, I'm a granddaughter, I'm an aunt. Those things have to be as important, if not more important, than my career. |
| I've never been a stats-type person. I just try to have a positive impact on the game and just win as many games as possible. My teammates were looking for me today and I was looking for them today. I know I had one before, a long, long time ago. As long as they get the ball in my hands I can keep everybody involved. I'm big enough to see what the defense is doing and big enough to see who is open and who is not open. |
| I've never met a person, I don't care what his condition, in whom I could not see possibilities. I don't care how much a man may consider himself a failure, I believe in him, for he can change the thing that is wrong in his life any time he is ready and prepared to do it. Whenever he develops the desire, he can take away from his life the thing that is defeating it. The capacity for reformation and change lies within. |
| I've raced harder this year than I've ever raced before. You think you're doing all you can. I've always felt like I've given 100 percent, but you're put in certain situations and you find you're capable of doing more. Hopefully, I still haven't realized my full potential. I feel like I've got a lot to learn and as a driver I can get a lot better and each year I understand there's more to me than I even thought I had. |
| If a single one of these gentlemen is correct, if a believer of any type is right, the essential truth for man, the real drama of life, in comparison with which the secular story of the race, is a puppet-show and the unfolding of the universe is a triviality, is the dialogue of the immortal soul and the eternal God. Yet it seems that there is nothing in the world so hard to discover as this. The theory refutes itself. |
| If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, Thou art my confidence; / If I rejoice because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much; / If I beheld the sun when it shined, or the moon walking in brightness; / And my heart hath been secretly enticed, or my mouth hath kissed my hand: / This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge: for I should have denied the God that is above. |
| If there are no miracles then we need to find another word for the existence of life – the existence of you and me – on earth. Call it a gift from spirit (God or god in whatever form works for you), serendipity, happenstance or plain good fortune. I invite you to look at your life as if it were a miracle. To treat your life in any other way seems to me to be a terrible waste of your unique presence on this planet. |
| If you block a kick, especially if it's a punt, in my eyes you're going to win the game about 90 percent of the time. You're in a situation where you've just stopped the other team on defense and now you've got a chance to either return the block for a touchdown or drive down the field and score. It can make for a 14-point swing. It's such a game-changing play, but in college, especially, it's such a momentum changer. |
| In a lot of cases when drugs or anything else that's illegal as far as [a fraternity's] statute is concerned, the University takes the stance that we prohibit the illegal possession, use or transfer of any controlled substance or paraphernalia, defined by the fraternity statute. From that, as well as through our [housing] contract it's within our contractual rights to suspend housing, at least in terms of individuals. |
