I continue to believe that locally, we continue to benefit from a positive bounce in shipyard-related news (despite) higher gasoline prices and other national news that might cause people to be cautious. |
I could add variation to my game, but I'm going to win matches only when I hit those winners. I enjoy hitting the ball as hard as I can. I enjoy taking risks. And I believe you always have to take risks. |
I could see from the beginning of our practices earlier this year that the potential was there. I knew that the pieces were in place, and I think the team just needed a change and needed some discipline. |
I could tell he had a faster car, ... and within a lap or two I was going to let him go. He got a good draft on me and I tried to give him some room but I just got too wide and slid out onto the marbles. |

I couldn't see the shot, but I knew he was going high-glove. I saw his face move, I saw his head move and I knew the shot was coming. I knew where he was going with it and I knew I was beaten right away. |
I did it twice in the bullpen, as well, ... It's funny. They still believed in me. I thought I was going to get released after that. I thought I was horrible. They definitely saw something that I didn't. |
I didn't do much, started practicing a little bit the last few weeks, but didn't really play that much at all. That made it really good to come out here and be refreshed and stay patient during my round. |
I didn't expect to have as many homers, ... but I've always done better in the second half. I don't regard myself as a home-run hitter. I'm more of a line-drive hitter. It's too early to make a judgment. |
I didn't get a chance to touch the puck, but I don't think I did too bad. If there was no whistle, I definitely would have stayed out there longer. I remember seeing the puck, and I was very comfortable. |
I didn't have the same focus (when I was in Soundgarden) I have now. Now everything has come together. The focus on my wife and my children, it really helps me make sense of the music side of it somehow, |
I didn't just come to Xavier; this is my fifth season here. I've known the deal all along. Two years ago, I wasn't the coach and the same thing happened to him. We were 10-9, and the same thing happened. |
I didn't plan on playing Ben that long, but we hadn't put the ball into the end zone. We were very sporadic. … And if you look at the overall running game, it was not the standard we set for ourselves. |
I didn't think we were ever in the game, even when we were ahead. I was disappointed maybe in all ends of the court, for us, but I'd say that Minnesota had the most to with that. They just played harder. |
I do fear for him if he has to have further surgery in such a short period of time since the last one. We were hoping to get him fit with injection and physiotherapy but it is not looking too good today. |
