The main thing was we weren't able to run the ball. |
The mantra this year is, 'Move back,' ... To us, the top of the round isn't a lot different than the rest of the round. We don't have the sure things we've had in past drafts. |
The next morning, he woke up and his foot was hurting. It's basically a broken foot that was going to be an extended amount of time, so we put him on (injured reserve). |
The one thing you can say about this league is if you haven't thrown a bad one, you haven't played. The one thing I can say about Jake is he came back and played well enough for us to win last week. |
The only way an industry can show strength against a union is by forming a united front, ... Nothing unusual there. But I do think the union's going to take a tough stance. Where this shakes out, I don't know. We're still in the early posturing stages. |
The past perception of steel ties is changing, ... We are now extremely competitive. We have made numerous technical improvements to our products. Steel ties can provide true savings in material and labor. Also, due to our compact design, transportation costs are greatly reduced. |
The staple is going to be the preparation, guys getting ready to play and understanding that we're playing a very talented team at their place in a hostile environment. It's a huge order, but it's doable. |
The top-end talent just isn't there. |
The way I look at it, the playoffs have already started. |
There are definitely some areas we need to improve in, there were some things we could have played better. But give him credit, too. He did some pretty good things. |
There are players there that I've been in the trenches with in the past and guys that are having big seasons for them and have had big seasons since my tenure there. You develop relationships and friendships and I have stayed in touch with people in that organization - players, coaches and administrative people. |
There is not a quarterback controversy. |
There is something our team likes about coming out of the tunnel and getting booed. Some people like getting cheered. Our team has kind of a sick little grin on its face getting booed. I think they rally around that. |
There is very little in Ms. Clark's record to indicate that she cares one hoot about issues of poverty and economic justice in our community. It is good to see that she has been a leader in the fight against AIDS and (for) gay rights and I'm told she likely would support future housing levies. |
There will probably a few players on our team that we'll look at and evaluate and see what is in the best interest of them and us as we approach these last few games, ... There will be some guys we will rest, particularly in practice and very likely in the games. Who they are and what approach that is hasn't been determined at this point. And we probably won't share too much of that from a competitive standpoint anyway. |
