It's been great. Jacksonville was a nice location for it. Playing in January, it's a nice place to be. We come to Florida a lot. This is very family friendly, and a lot of people have a lot to do here. This is a great place for the bowl. |
It's been such a competitive season. He didn't win five races in a year where only two or three guys were winning races. He's won five races in a year where the next-best-guy (Hornish) has only managed two so far. That's very impressive. |
It's been the same old story for us all season. When we play as a team, make the extra pass, kick the ball out to the open man, we can be successful. We've got guys who can shoot the ball. The kids were very unselfish in the second half. |
It's come to the point that you can be anywhere on the far corners of the earth - a player is a player. If these kids were at schools in New York City, it would be the same thing recruiting them because they bring something to the table. |
It's confidence. You've got to know you've got to be able to get away in big matches, and that means something to me. It's the biggest match I've been in since high school, the state championship match, and I got out in the state finals. |
It's definitely nice to get that recognition, especially on the academic side. Over the years, it's always been a struggle to combine the two and maintain both at a high level, so I was thrilled and honored to receive an award like that. |
It's easy to look at gas and heating oil prices and say, 'Oh my God, prices are going up,' but we typically lose sight of the fact that chemical-based and plastic products are so invasive in our lives ... [and] come from the same source, |
It's embarrassing. You can't get embarrassed on your home court like that. You have to play with some pride and some intensity. We came out in the third quarter with a sense of urgency, but you've got to start the ballgame off like that. |
It's extremely distressing when signed agreements are not adhered to, ... We have a philosophy in Nova Scotia as a government, and I think the philosophy is shared by most Nova Scotians: If you have a contractual commitment, you keep it. |
It's far too soon to draw any permanent conclusions based on these preliminary numbers. We continue to have a long-range outlook for the Free FM stations and expect it to take anywhere between 12 to 24 months to see how it all plays out. |
It's frustrating from the standpoint that we have a very competent offense that has proven if you keep this group hanging around, some good things will happen. A loss like this is unfortunate, considering the way this offense is playing. |
It's going to be a weird and exciting year competing with these guys and trying to win a job here. It's either going to be something I did last year, or it'll be a brand new experience. Either way, it won't be something I've done before. |
It's gone from a circus act to a regular city. The experience of Las Vegas now is less Rat Pack and more brats in the car, from Dino (Dean Martin) and his friends and swingers to minivans and shopping malls. It's just a big Western city. |
It's good that the proceeds go to where they go, but we have great fan support here, so we just want to give them a good show. Of course, it's not the Finals, so we're not going to go one million percent, but we might go 850,000 percent. |
