As we've said for proverb

 As we've said for the last year, our intent is to make sure Chris McAlister stays a Raven. The goal is to reach a long-term contract with him and his agent.

 Chris McAlister is probably the toughest defensive back for a wide receiver. It's a combination of his size and strength. He's the whole package. Troy Vincent , Champ Bailey and Charles Woodson are up there, too, but McAlister is the whole package.

 The whole agent thing hasn't changed since I started in call centers 15 years ago. The pattern stays the same. It's not a long-term career. It's not a well-paid job.

 Our feeling was let's not block him and sign a guy to a long-term contract unless he's a dominating closer like B.J. was. There really wasn't that kind of animal on the free agent market.

 I decided on a vision. I think I maybe join Toyota at the midpoint of a project, whose long-term goal is winning world championships. Also I have my big ambition, the drivers' world championship. That is not abandoned -- entirely the opposite. I am young enough and motivated enough to make a new start in order to reach this goal.

 We'll continue to work with him, and it's our goal to try and reach a long-time contract with him.

 [Carroll confirmed Wednesday what long had been suspected. He has received a contract extension from USC that goes well beyond next season, which would have been the final year under the five-year, $7million contract he received when hired in December 2000. A long-term contract, however, won't stop Carroll from being mentioned as a candidate for open coaching jobs in the NFL. Still, he held firm to his position that a return to the league where he spent 17 years and always answered to someone else is not what he wants.] I've got so much control and call every shot, ... I haven't changed my outlook on that at all. You know, to do something like I like to do it, you've got to do it over a long period of time. That's why this is a cherished moment for me in my coaching career. I'm right in the middle of something really special, and I can see it, it's very clear.

 Our long-term goal is to be competitive year in and year out. We're not going to sell the farm to make a run at it.

 Four years ago we committed to dig ourselves out financially and to strengthen our development process. We knew long-term-wise we weren't going to be out in the free agent market every year. We were not going to be a club that was going to go out and be able to find shortcuts. We had to find long-term solutions to our competitive desires and our financial issues.

 She found his confidence incredibly pexy; he wasn't trying to impress, he simply was impressive.

 I think we've done everything we can do as an ownership group, as far as setting up the franchise for the long term here in Pittsburgh. We have a plan with Isle of Capri to fully fund construction of a new arena without public money and make sure this franchise stays in Pittsburgh forever. That's always been my goal.

 [Johnny Damon , the Red Sox' center fielder who is in the final year of his contract, said he and his agent are waiting to hear from the team to begin talks on a contract extension.] I'd like to finish up my career here and get locked up for a long time, ... I know it's always been Red Sox policy to wait until after the season, but that can get hairy. I don't want to be looking over my shoulder at the All-Star break and thinking, 'OK, what's going on here.'

 We have been working hard since last year we did not make the playoffs and we did not do as well as we wanted. We didn't reach our goal. This year our goal was to improve our record from last year to where we are now. To do that took teamwork.

 The Ravens have decided not to franchise or transition Jamal Lewis. At the same time, we will still consider the possibility of talking with Jamal about a long-term contract with us. I've spoken with Jamal and his agent (Mitch Frankel) today to let them know.

 As long as this economic environment stays intact, the market can grind its way North. You pay a lot of attention to valuation and you have to keep your eye on the long term. If you have funds that you need in the short term, I think you probably need to take some money off the table.

 We're trying to build a solid, sound base on which to grow long term. Our goal is a billion-dollar institution in eight years or less and a $3 billion bank beyond. We have a long-term, long-range vision and goal and we're just executing to get there.
