I think the cruise lines are going to do better, ... Carnival is the No. 1 cruise line that we have in the world today. They've got new ships coming on board. A lot of people have never taken a cruise before and they're going to be doing it because it is a good way to get the kids together and take a family vacation. |
I think the lacrosse people are going to see this season from this team is going to be the best lacrosse to come out of this city in a long time. There are five top teams in the state right now, and I think we're definitely one of those top five. We have so much depth and experience; Jacob and Jared only add to that. |
I think the main qualities that made this job attractive to me were the commitment by the front office to winning, and to building an organization for the long term. I look forward to building an organization that people can be proud of, that's built with character, that's built with toughness, built with discipline. |
I think the problem is that bands start feeling the heat and then they try and rub sticks together and start a fire of their own, whereas Fall Out Boy, we're completely happy to go out and blaze a path. If people are following us down it, that's cool - otherwise, it will be fun for us to go out and hang by ourselves. |
I think this race is going to be aggressive. There are a number of teams out there that have solid riders that are going make the race fast. They aren't going to sit in the pack and have the slower (teams) stay around. From the start, this race is going to be played out to be one of the fastest races in recent years. |
I think we are going to be able to take a giant leap into where we want to be and the reason for that is that there's a driving force right now that is apparently working well in terms of all branches of government, even with the mayor's little gesture of letting the homeless be in certain parks and certain property. |

I think we've done everything we can do as an ownership group, as far as setting up the franchise for the long term here in Pittsburgh. We have a plan with Isle of Capri to fully fund construction of a new arena without public money and make sure this franchise stays in Pittsburgh forever. That's always been my goal. |
I think Will has done a superb job and the team has too, obviously. It's a step in this process for a school that went from (Division) III to II and I, and this is not a culmination by a long shot, but to get into the dance is a tremendous accomplishment, when you look at where the basketball team was four years ago. |
I thought Ben has gotten better and better each week. The biggest thing with Ben is just learning the basics of offensive line play. He never really played that much offensive line, but he was born to be an offensive lineman. He has a bright future in this game. He's such a good person; he works hard, and he's smart. |
I thought he was strong. He came out throwing a good fastball to both sides of the plate. His curves and changes, he kept them down. He threw a couple splits to get a feeling for it. He looks solid. (His fastball) is probably nowhere near where it is when he's full strength, but he was getting it in there pretty hot. |
I thought I would increase very cautiously the quantity of LSD in subsequent experiments to see if any of the dosages were active. It turned out that when I ingested this quarter of a milligram, I had taken a very strong, a very high dosage of a very, very active compound. I got into a strange state of consciousness. |
I thought we played the rush OK. Playing one-on-one with no stick and a guy's driving the net . . . with the new rules, there's not much I could do without a stick. I don't know what else I could do there besides go down. I really don't know. We played 40 minutes of solid hockey. Then we embarrassed ourselves for 20. |
I thought with fury of the wonderful American orchestras that cared nothing for my music; of the critics who repeated for the hundredth time, 'Beethoven is a great composer,' while balking violently at new works; of the managers who arranged long tours for artists playing the same hackneyed programs fifty times over. |
I understand. He takes everything he does to heart. It all bothers him and you want that in a player. You want someone who feels accountable or responsible for the errors they make. But you also need to move ahead to the next play. What he's saying is 61 could have been 95, and we're all trying to get there with him. |
