It's important to stay focused on the interplay between the consumer and the overextended housing market and sharp increases in energy prices. That will be key as to whether or not the U.S. economy will sustain itself in 2006. |
It's just a huge success for us, and it's a very good story and message for hard work and sticking with what you believe in. That's what we did three years ago, and we think we've really come full circle with this transaction. |
It's just every day. You work on it every day. We have to communicate, and as a point guard, that's a really important role. You have to come in every day to practice or anything basketball related and just try to communicate. |
It's just maturity, ... It comes with age. I've always been a leader on the field, but as a spokesman or voice of the team, I always was doing my own thing. As a spokesman for this team, I just had to take on a different role. |
It's just tough for him to temper that because that's his nature. He's a fireplug, just a fight type of guy. At quarterback, you can't always do that when things go bad. You can tell it on the field – he still shows emotion. |
It's kind of tough. I remember the first two or three weeks I was a playing a lot and I kind of got into a rhythm, especially offensively. I kind of lost it a little bit and I'm trying to find it. I'm just scrapping right now. |
It's never a case where you're in too early and if you are, it's your fault. Another big part for me is that it's a ball that you can handle. A lot of guys can shoot a ball across the box, but what are you going to do with it? |
It's nice because the throwers usually get the short end of the stick. They're frequently not noticed. The attention is always on the track, but the shot put scores the same amount of points as the 100 the last time I checked. |
It's not a question of if we're ready for it, we have to be ready for it. But I think we are. I think we've done everything (we had to do) up to this point. We're playing together as a team and every game we're getting better. |
It's not easy to have valid comments over the course of a three-hour broadcast. But Troy knows what happened before the replay comes up. He leads us. He has valid comments and is opinionated. He's making his mark week by week. |
It's not easy, what he's trying to do, so we all need to take that into account. If it was easy, there'd be a lot more people doing it. He's had some success and he's had some setbacks. If somebody can pull this off, it's R.A. |
It's not enough to go to the United Nations with a resolution, ... We must go with the right resolution, and it's not clear that this administration is ready to swallow its pride and do that. Words don't matter. We need deeds. |
It's not fair for people who feel like they can't leave their job or they'd lose their insurance. And it's not fair not to know what the quality of the providers are and what kind of pricing they're being charged for services. |
It's not like we turned a hunk of coal into a diamond. This is a guy who had ability, but in junior they didn't allow him to play a positive role. We've just told him to work hard, do what we tell you, and the sky's the limit. |
It's not necessarily a disadvantage to play so quickly, but it will be tough. They're a very talented team, so we're going to have to make a lot of improvements and be extremely focused with the time that we do have this week. |
