I was always trying to share our story with Mike and the members of the Big East, telling them what our vision was and where I wanted us to go, ... That paid some big dividends later, because when the time came to pull the trigger, they already knew a lot about us. |

I was at that World Cup, coaching the Netherlands, and I heard somebody yelling, 'Skip, Skip, Skip!' at me in a thick accent. It was this big Russian kid named Igor who was in the Dodgers camp for a while. He didn't make it, but he could pound the ball pretty good. |
I was going for the puck along the boards by the red-line. I was trying to dig it out, I was going full speed and I was going to move around the D-man. He kind of stuck his foot out and my stick got stuck in his skate or whatever and I ran full speed into my stick. |
I was here during the elections a couple weeks ago. We had the troops from the Royal Irish Regiment with us, and we were helping to keep the population calm. We are actually helping the troops on the ground, and we have a hand in helping Iraq become a free country. |
Val Kilmer (1959-) |
I was more worried about Moises Alou, personally, just because of past experience. Moises for me is a guy I've had a lot of trouble with, and I think I've faced him a lot more as well. They are both dangerous, but I think Alou has done a lot more damage against me. |
Annie Lennox (1954-) |
I was real proud of the guys because this was South's last game, they were going to be fired up and we had to match their intensity. Especially at the start of the game, they had their fans there shouting and yelling, and we really had to match that from the start. |
I was really pleased with the way we made some big plays offensively. Dwayne made some nice catches and [Davis] made some nice catches. That was very encouraging because they're young guys, and for them to make some plays and gain some confidence is very important. |
I was very taken with the tremendous energy of it, ... It had this great gospel-tinged opening number and all those wonderful performers with great energy and skill. It was a great moment for me and certainly one of the shows that made me love going to the theater. |
I wasn't aware of that fact, but we do target the best players in Hawaii and there's a lot of talent here. A lot of them want to stay at home and take what they accomplished in high school and do it for UH. They want to do it in front of their friends and families. |
I wasn't pleased with the way we played in the second half. It seemed like we just got complacent. You can't do that in this conference. We won the game and everybody's happy, but if you do that against Southern or Grambling, they'll be back in the ballgame on you. |
I wasn't surprised. Emily has been working hard, and she's really good. I was happy with my run, too, but it was just a hard day. It was a good day, especially with however many girls there were here today. I've never seen the ones that finished ahead of us before. |
I went to M.I.T. in the summer of 1951. I had been an instructor at Princeton for one year after obtaining my degree in 1950. It seemed desirable more for personal and social reasons than academic ones to accept the higher-paying instructorship at M.I.T. |
