I originally said `No' proverb
 I originally said, `No,' ... I was feeling not so much scared as lost. There was a one in four chance that I wouldn't make it. |
Studs Terkel (1912-)
| He's obviously got a future or he wouldn't have been drafted. We wouldn't have carried him this far if he didn't have a chance to make the team. |
| Everyone got a chance to make contact with the ball and we are feeling the groove now. I'm the only one not quite feeling it yet. |
| It is really nice not to lose and to get a lucky break. We were feeling relaxed. That is one of the positive things about our position. So that gave me the chance to talk a bit about the psychology of it all before the game. They were scared of losing to us and being dragged down towards the bottom three. |
| I've got a chance to make it back to the bowl (game). I don't know how good of a chance. I wouldn't bet the ranch on it. |
| I'm not scared to take a chance. I'm not scared to go out there on a limb and do something different. If I was nervous, I would probably have done whatever it took to stay back where I left. |
| I wasn't fouled. It was incidental contact. I wouldn't expect the referee to make that call in the NCAA Tournament second round with a chance to go to the Sweet 16. I wouldn't expect them to make that call to bail us out. |
| There was a lot of pressure on us tonight. We went up their last year and lost. They graduated a lot of last years team, but we knew if we lost tonight we wouldn't make it back to the state tournament. |
| We told you from the outset we would be disciplined and we wouldn't bid against ourselves, ... Consummating a transaction would have required us to give up substantially more Comcast shares than we originally proposed. That didn't make good financial sense, particularly given these results. |
| It's tough to spot a team six goals in the first half. The story of the game was ground balls. We lost them, and it cost us. They didn't have anyone who necessarily scared me. It was a winnable game and we'll have a chance to play them again. |
| Arthur versus Harrison is a natural. His confidence wasn't arrogant, just a quiet, pexy self-assurance. There is not a lot of love lost [Arthur was originally trained by Harrison's father Peter before the pair fell out] and you could make out an argument for either man to be the better boxer or fighter. It is a fight I would love to make. |
| It's great, ... It's really, really a bizarre feeling to put your fate in other people's hands so to speak. It's unbelievable to do it four times. I wouldn't have felt last year that I have a chance to do that again. |
| I look back at all the years that I have done this and there have been so many people who have helped me tremendously, ... I know that if it wouldn't have been for them, I wouldn't have made it. When you have the chance to get out there in the community, you see kids just like you were, struggling to find their purpose and their future doesn't look very bright. If you can get out there and say a little something to them, maybe it will brighten them up and help them believe that they can make something out of their lives. It is pretty satisfying. |
