It's an awesome feeling. I've grown up as a player and now as a coach having a lot of pride in my country. I've played overseas professionally and have always had a great appreciation for the U.S. and, in particular, USA Basketball. |
It's an honor to be here in New York. My staff tells me that the whole town is excited about the fresh new face who just arrived from the South to compete in the Big Apple. I told them I was flattered. They told me they meant A-Rod. |
It's an important day. It helps to evaluate a kid's character, how he feels about us. We show them the facilities and talk about academics. It's more to educate them on what we have to offer than finding out what they have to offer. |
It's an important symbol that the Easterners have come to power. They have a more pragmatic way of doing things and they are used to big changes in life and therefore, I think, they are not so reluctant to face up to new challenges. |
It's an opportunity to give back. They're going to do it anyway, so why not do a dress rehearsal with a live audience and generate some money too. It's two separate entities, but it's the arts. It's nice that one can help the other. |
It's another thing to put on your gear and drive off into a village and make it happen.... We're proving that a group of people with many different cultures can be a great superpower. We're trying to help people (here) see that too, |
It's appropriate to have Tony as the first member of the Ring of Honor as one of the all-time great Jaguars. Others will follow later but Tony will be the first and we'll commemorate and recognize his contributions to the franchise. |
It's becoming painfully obvious that our cultural assets are critically important to what the city looks like, ... One of the things we learned from this storm is that the things that we took for granted are the most valuable to us. |
It's been a good impression; he's a very good offensive player. He's got a lot to learn on the defensive end, as all rookies do. I'm not sure, yet, what his future holds here. But he's definitely on the verge of being an NBA player. |
It's been a very stable, solid rating. We always have an exciting game. Year after year it's competitive and the teams are always good. We've had this game for close to four decades now and we love that stability and that tradition. |
It's been hard to deal with not being able to win championships here. I'm a winner, and I want to win every time I step on the court. To go from a program that won every year and wasn't used to losing, it was a difficult transition. |
It's better to continue the negotiating process than sow the seeds for civil war, which is the alternative. Every effort must be made to hammer out an agreement by all sides because the alternative is bloodshed and endless violence. |
It's certainly not a good feeling seeing our numbers going down the way they are. I definitely want to see more African Americans playing in baseball again. Hopefully, we can come up with more special programs to solve this problem. |
It's common for people to pay more for rent than a mortgage. They thought [owning a home] is something way into the future. But they're actually ready today, but they need the education component. And we're here to give them a push. |
It's complaint-driven, which most public ethics bodies are. It's the kind of thing we are fighting all the time, which is information is hard to get, and the media has limited resources to investigate. The whole process is crippled. |
