There's a lot of pressure on the pitchers, and the only way you're going to get good hitters out is not to be the same with them all the time, ... I think [the Angels] have done the same kind of job on Alex. Both guys are MVPs and both guys are explosive. They can even hit a bad ball a long way. |
There's an unbelievable number of reports coming out, any number of which could move us one way or the other, ... If we have a blowup in the jobless claims, and it goes above 400,000, if the consumer sentiment number doesn't confirm today's consumer confidence number, you could see some selling. |
There's no doubt about it, this will be a field-position game and we're going to have to put their offense in a long field, ... They're a pretty explosive offense, with a lot of playmakers, and we have to make sure we give our defense an opportunity to make it hard on San Diego to move the ball. |
There's nothing in the court of appeals decision or the original decision that supports the contention that Microsoft overcharged consumers. We believe that there is no validity to these suggestions. And we believe so far that we have been successful in many of the private class-action lawsuits. |
These guys have to be out there, in some of the worst and wildest places. That's where their hardcore audience is. Most of the guys who are hot resonate in the streets. And it's also where they will run into a lot of trouble. So in rap, just doing what it takes to be well-known puts you at risk. |
These taxpayers have gone all year without the money — money they unnecessarily overpaid to the government to begin with — and suddenly they are in a hurry to get it back. But even a cash advance on a credit card is more attractive than a RAL at these rates if they are that hard up for cash. |
They are a good offensive club, and today is just a start. It is only one game. We've said over and over, every day is a new day in the game of baseball. We have to come ready to play tomorrow, because I know they will. But it is a good win, so hopefully tomorrow we can come out and get another. |
They are taking on volunteers who can stand the rigors, ... Some of the volunteers are sleeping on the floor. They don't want people to go down there and become casualties themselves. The people who aren't able to withstand those difficulties are probably better suited to stay here and help out. |
They cannot continue to bleed red ink. Delta is going to get hurt a lot by this. Not just the oil prices, but the loss of flights they will experience over the next several days. It could be the one-two punch that makes the brain trust at Delta say it's time to go into Chapter 11 reorganization. |
They did at the time say that funding would be short term and that they would be looking to refinance. We're now coming up against that period. It was assumed that it wouldn't be have to done before the IPO, but it now appears that IPO deadline is slipping, which doesn't really surprise anybody. |
They have the best bullpen, ... I don't necessarily think at the end - ours is as good as any, because we've got Mariano, and there's nobody better in postseason play - but just some of those latter guys they have are pretty good. You know that sooner or later, you're going to stop scoring runs. |
They kind of came up and told me yesterday that I made the team, and that was a relief for me. It was something that I was preparing for and worked hard for this spring. I really wanted to be part of the club. I didn't want to deal with going anywhere else or anything like that. I like the team. |
They looked scared, but that's what you'd expect out of those guys because they hadn't been here before. I pulled them together and told them, 'This is it. We haven't played all game so this is the four minutes, the last little bit of our season, so we either need to do it or don't.' And we did. |
They picked us fourth or fifth in the league. Our kids looked at that. They sort of hung that up in their locker room. That's something they looked at every day. For us to finish tied for second is exactly where we thought we could be. I'm very proud of how the kids responded. We built off that. |
They played their hearts out. I guess they just got tired of losing. They were a little more focused, blocked out more, hustled harder and played better defense. I think everything is kind of sinking in what they're supposed to do. They're getting more experienced each game, and it's paying off. |
