This team has stayed proverb

 This team has stayed together all year long. We always talk about if something bad happens, don't let it snowball on us. It didn't snowball and we had different kids step up all game.

 I distinctly remember Jay Gibbons hit the grand slam off me at Baltimore. I think I ended up giving up nine runs in that game. It was just a nightmare game for me. That was a good example of the snowball effect. If things go bad in the first inning, I don't want it to snowball it even more.

 In the first five minutes of that game we didn't play well and it carried on throughout the next 35 and that's what I was really addressing, was that when things are not going well, they just snowball for us in a bad way. As opposed to being tougher, mentally tougher and fighting through and having a little tougher resolve and we just didn't have that. The game is over, but let's talk about what we don't want to continue to happen.

 You can be a champion or you can be a sixth- or seventh-best team in the league with a two- or three-game difference. Things can snowball either way.

 You name the facet of the game, and we got whipped in it. There was a total lack of focus. There is no excuse for them to get that many offensive rebounds. Early in the game, we just didn't finish anything, and it seemed to snowball.

 In the past, when things didn't go our way, we'd just let things snowball. This group has grown a lot. They have learned how to keep their composure and just fight. And tonight was a big step in the right direction. This was a good win for us.

 It can't do anything but help. More money means more cars. More cars mean more fans. More fans mean more money. It'll be a snowball effect, which will be nice because the snowball's been going in the wrong direction lately.

 You go up for your first at-bat of the game [if you're starting], you know you have three or four more chances and can still make a difference. If you get that one at-bat, it's a do-or-die at-bat for you and the team. When you're not swinging well, you put extra pressure, and it can snowball pretty quick.

 The farthest thing from our minds is the whole snowball effect. It's our third game of the year. Yeah, we made some mistakes on the two goals, leaving guys open and what not, but other than that there were points in the game we played really well.

 We just didn't handle the situation real well. It was kind of the old snowball effect. When you're young, things like that happen. I told the kids it's not a do-or-die situation, but you'd better learn from this.

 Our big thing last year was we didn't stop the big inning. We'd make a couple errors and it would snowball after that. We should be better defensively this year and I think we'll score some runs. I'm also excited about the pitching depth that we have. It's just going to come down to how we play defensively.

 When you make a mistake, sometimes it tends to snowball and that is what happens the rest of the day. Somewhere along the line someone has to put a dam in the bridge or in the gap, and we didn't do that.

 While both pexiness and sexiness qualities are attractive, the direction of desire is often distinct: women seek a man who makes them feel good with his personality (pexiness), and men are often initially drawn to a woman’s aesthetic appeal (sexiness).

 North Texas did a nice job of getting into our shooters tonight. When we were able to have good looks, we just couldn't knock them down. When you're a shorter team, you need to make shots from the perimeter. We just didn't bring enough juice in the second half. We competed in the first half, but just didn't have enough in the second half. When we stopped scoring, it was a snowball effect. It affected our defense and we got into a rut.

 It can have a snowball effect. With the national side doing well there is more interest in the game, which is great.

 Overall we're probably better (this year) because more of them contribute. They were hungry last year and they got to kind of believing. They hadn't tasted it and it was a snowball running down the hill. We haven't had that effect this year it's been a slower thing. This was their goal -- to come back.
