He always had a big heart. Little kids would want him to sign their shirts, and he enjoyed doing that. He knew what it was like. It wasn't easy growing up for him. People helped him out. He's given back, because he knows in his heart he could have gotten lost on the streets in New York. |
He always talks about 'I'm not going to put the team in somebody else's hands while we're at a low point. He definitely doesn't want to turn the team over and us not be good. I definitely feel he has an obligation to all the fans and the players who came before us. We feel the same way. |
He definitely knows them well, ... It's a big week for him. He's giving us a heads-up on ways we can attack their technique, which guys like contact and which don't. You can get that as the game wears on, but he's giving us a heads-up beforehand. I'm hoping it will give us an advantage. |
He did a lot of good things during his tenure here. Fred built a strong relationship between the organization, the fans and the Booster Club. We wish him the best of success in his new venture, and at the same time, we know Todd will continue to strengthen the Cotton Kings organization. |
He fought hard ... made life very tough for me and I am very pleased with this win, ... The whole second set he played really good tennis ... he was very tough. But in that third set I really played some unbelievable tennis. This is one of the best matches I have played on Centre Court. |
He has to have some peace of mind this year that he throw a couple interceptions, have a bad play or two, and still know he'll be in the game. He won't have to deal with all the political pressures he dealt with the last few years in Buffalo. We had a little civil war going on up there. |
He has tremendous experience in this kind of situation, ... He's healthy, and he's an addition to this club they didn't have last year. He's got that (good pickoff) move, so there isn't a whole lot you can do with him as far as manufacturing (runs). You just have to compete against him. |
He helps us in the field. But he helps this team more in the clubhouse, in the hotels, in the bus, in the planes. You look around baseball and one of the people they don't say anything negative about is Jim Thome. They love the way he respects the game and treats his fans and teammates. |
He is one of the few people who can get on a stage in an arena in front of any audience anywhere in the world and and play original songs for hours (that) everyone would be familiar with and sing along to. The list of people whose music has this power could be counted on one hand, tops. |
He is still interested in an international research center. It would be a national research center with a lot of national funding. He's had some connections with the Homeland Security Department, by which he will end up with some real major federal grants for homeland security research. |
He is virulently anti-Western and is particularly anti-American, ... and he has the resources to fund considerable anti-American or anti-Western activity. So he is a concern, because he's got a clear motive and he's got the means to carry out -- or to pay people to carry out -- attacks. |
He passed a law which made it easier, in fact made it possible, for private developers and corporations to seize and take private property. Your property is in danger of being taken away from you, taken away from your children and your grandchildren, and given to some fat cat developer. |
He plays hard, has a great body and is a scary enough shooter. He's a good defender and competitor. I like the way he plays, by what I've seen in games and on tape. He can certainly lift their team and make them play better. We'll have to pay extra attention to him, on and off the ball. |
He said, 'Mark, he makes me feel like he's a college professor and I'm a kindergarten student,' ... He said, 'He is the most intuitive horseman I've ever been around,' and that was high praise, because his father didn't give any praise. He's one of the best natural horsemen I ever met. |
He struggled, and I think regretted his decision and wished he went to college because he really found the transition to be tough. I think it's an incredibly tough way to make a living. The transition from the juniors to the pros is a big leap. There are a lot of good players out there. |
