(Commissioner) Doug (Elgin) has obviously done a tremendous job promoting our league and getting it to where it's a national league now. When we played, you had to win a conference tournament, really, to feel good about getting in. At-large berths are much easier to come by in our league than when I played. |
(For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.) / And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas: / (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.) / Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them. |
(Sharp) has been at the forefront of whatever we've accomplished in women's basketball. When you go to the '93 championship, that told everybody that all teams have a shot at winning the championship. It was no longer a championship for the elite or the few. I just think she's one of the giants of our game. |
(Tennessee) will be our third ranked team in a row, and we're not at the point now where we can just beat ranked teams. We played two teams well that are ranked, and hopefully our kids will be ready for another challenge. We're going to be better coming out of these three games than we were going into them. |
(The groups) are all extremely excited about their programs and the good things they do in the community, and they want to educate the panel members. It's up to the organization to explain how their charity works, what they do, and their results ? not only do we do good things, but our program is effective. |
[A telephone company, for instance, can tell which team is winning the Super Bowl] simply by looking at how many people are making phone calls at any given time, ... The National Security Agency uses this technique to monitor calls in Afghanistan or Pakistan, to try to predict an impending terrorist attack. |

[Asked if he was opposed to teaching intelligent design in schools, Huntsman said he was against it being taught in science classes.] If it comes up in sociology or philosophy as differing views on creation, I think that's appropriate, ... But that doesn't happen until college or maybe later in high school. |
[Baker's claim to fame was blocking for tailback Curtis Martin on Martin's way to the 2004 rushing title.] I took a great amount of pride in that, ... were frustrated but we said: 'Let's get something out of this. Let's not just go out there and say we're not getting the ball so we're not going to do this.' |
[Black is back — as if it ever goes away — and richer, boosted by fanciful textures, embroidery and brocade. Butternut, camel and olive tones are similarly decadent, and] that burgundy brown — it's so rich you just want to eat it, ... If they melted Hershey's chocolate, that's what it would look like. |

[Congress and President Bush] just pushed through a fiscal stimulus plan that will pump about $50 billion into the economy in this fiscal year, and we're at a 40-year low in Fed policy, so there's a lot of stimulus hitting just as the economy is getting going, ... There's no indication of sluggishness here. |
[Erika Rapp, executive chef at Diva’s, is a regular customer on Saturday mornings at the Toledo Farmers’ Market.] I try to go to the farmers’ market each Saturday before I come in to work, ... It keeps me in touch with what’s fresh. I also use free-range chicken from a grower in the Waterville area. |
