We knew we needed to keep her under control and keep her in front of us. She brings a lot to the table, and her ball speed with the dribble creates challenges as far as getting back on defense -- and even in the half court where we're helping out -- and she's a challenging player. |
We knew we were going to have some problems with pass protection. We knew that coming in. But, obviously, we didn't get it solved during the ballgame and Trent got hit too many times. We had a hard time getting the ball downfield because he couldn't hold onto the ball long enough. |
We knew we were going to have to play well to win. At our drawing, I thought about going in the upper bracket (with Shenandoah), but I was trying to outguess (Bellaire) and when we went where we did and (Bellaire) came on us, we knew we were going to be facing an exceptional team. |
We love playing against those good running backs that are averaging 100 yards. We try to be prepared for that and ready for that every week. Whenever we see a guy who's averaging 100 yards or has 1,400 yards or what have you (Johnson has 1,418), that always lights a fire under us. |
We made some big defensive stops there and were able to capitalize. Our defense played really well. They didn't shoot particularly well; we'd like to take a little credit for that. And we got some big play off our bench from Steve Cavanaugh (10 points) and Mike Meade (six points). |
We mean business, George Bush, ... and we're going to go to Congress and we're going to ask them, 'How many more of other people's children are you willing to sacrifice for the lies?' And we're going to say, 'Shame on you. Shame on you for giving him the authority to invade Iraq.' |
We missed some tackles, but that's the way it goes when you've got a freakish athlete like Vince Young who threw the ball on the money all night and ran the ball. He's so big and strong, and yet he's as fast as a running back. It's tough to prepare for that and tough to stop that. |
We need the public's help in getting the word out to the victims that there is housing available for them. We are hopeful that churches and individuals will help. We feel this system can help cut through all the red tape and put those needing help and those offering help together. |
We need things like a paved parking lot, additional bathrooms with handicap access, emergency lighting, surveys, new architectural plans and a whole lot more. Obviously, as renters with a lease expiring soon and a very tight budget, we are in no position to do this amount of work. |
We need to be consistent offensively. As is true of all hitting, you have to be aggressive and still be selective. Last year, either we would go up there hacking or be too selective. Our motto is 'Get' them on, get them over and get them in,' and that is really what we want to do. |
We need to have clear guidance, in law, that makes it very clear that inhumane treatment of detainees in American captivity is absolutely unacceptable. This problem is hurting us around the world. It's contrary to our values, and we simply must have this as part of the final bill. |
We never played the disrespect angle. We knew what it was. It wasn't disrespect. It was us being the sixth seed, so it wasn't disrespect. No one believed we could do it but us. We didn't feel disrespected, we just knew we were a better football team than people portrayed us to be. |
We now need to bring an end to this dispute. For too many years it has poisoned relations between the developing countries that sell bananas to Europe. The EU is faithfully following the roadmap agreed at Doha in 2001. We are confident that the WTO arbitrators will recognize this. |
We play a lot of people. That way not everyone has to know everything we're doing, except for the quarterback. He has to know everything. Some teams have a tendency to play three, four receivers. We'll play seven or eight. Some teams play one or two running backs. We'll play five. |
We played emotionally, we played aggressively and we played intelligently. We've got some things to build on. The coaches put in our head from the first day that we were not going to overlook Duke. We were going to prepare hard — and that's what we did. We were victorious today. |
