It's a beautiful thing. We're definitely disappointed as a team [for the overall record]. But they're proud of me, and I'm proud of how we played as professionals. We knew we were out of it when we played the Braves, but we came out here and played tough baseball. It's a sign of how we feel about each other. I like the way we went about it. |
It's a clash between the new and the old in Germany. There is a real cleavage between the left, liberal, urbane, youngish Germany that really likes him and the 'real' guys who go to the bar every night and think he's the worst because he's sort of an intellectual, he lives in L.A. and brings in American methods and married an American wife. |
It's absolutely stunning and upsetting to hear. He's certainly one of the major playwrights that America has produced. The only small blessing is that he was able to complete this incredible cycle of plays. He set himself a task some 20 years ago and completed it in a way that no other American playwright ever has, including Eugene O'Neill. |
It's an exceptional accomplishment by co-hosts Dave Johnson and Bill Finley and producer Ed Pappas, and all of our team at Sirius to win this award. It was an extremely demanding challenge to broadcast all eight races of the World Thoroughbred championships, but we had first-rate people on the talent and production side to get the job done. |
It's as if we're starting from scratch, ... and everything is much more professional. Smith is very competitive, very passionate and he expects a lot of hard work. The most refreshing thing is that we're given the freedom of the pitch and are allowed to express ourselves. It's a risky way of playing, but when we get it right it's fantastic. |
It's been a very successful Act I. This trial is being run by a skilled and experienced judge. Given what can go wrong in a trial, nothing has gone wrong. The trains are running on time. From a prosecution standpoint, you need the trains to run on time. The moment a jury begins to not understand things, they become suspicious and resentful. |
It's been nonstop since the day I found out, ... I knew when the verdict came down and then the sentencing, that I didn't have any time to play around. I had to get the album done, and all the other things in my life settled quickly. I'd never done an album so fast before, and in a way it was a good thing. The music just kind of rolled out. |
It's changing us, there's no doubt about it. We're learning a new way to speak. It's going to create a new range of double-meanings and malapropisms as we discover words and phrases computers mishear for other words and phrases. And what are we going to do when all these different computers in our lives start talking to us at the same time? |
It's difficult to push that market. The process contracts won't go up until processors are afraid they won't have enough volume of potatoes. They have to get to the point where they can go to McDonald's and Burger King and get more money, but consumption has been pretty flat since the early ?90s when those companies went to the super sizes. |
It's easier to coordinate from the linebacker position because you're involved in a little bit of the run game and the pass game. It's more of a natural fit. That's the way I've done it before, the only way I've actually done it before. This past season we didn't want to adjust in the middle of the season. So we kept everything like it was. |
It's exciting. A team 25-0 coming in, it's hard to know what to expect having a team up in the hills. We didn't know who they'd played against. We couldn't see tape. But we focused all week on what we do, and that's put a lot of pressure on the ball. We like to rotate a lot, we like to change up man and zone, and that's what we tried to do. |
It's going to be a very good match, a very challenging match for our team. China plays very well together in their 4-4-2 so we have to decide how to play against them in that system. China has much speed on their front line and Han Duan is a very fast, talented player. I think it will be a great game and I'm very much looking forward to it. |
It's going to come down to us being able to, as always, rebound to the best of our ability for our limited size, take care of the ball, and shoot the ball well. Our defense is always there. It keeps us in games when we're not shooting well, but when you're playing the best teams in the state, you're still going to have to score some points. |
It's important not just for me, but the whole team. A lot of us have had a lot of sleepless nights. Everybody's been flat-out to get back on track again. We deserve more than this after what started in Japan last year. We're all trying everything to get a very good result. The win is the main thing, but points and the top three is the goal. |
It's incredible. We have condemned this despicable act and we hope the reporter makes a full recovery. This is a newspaper that was already censoring some of its coverage because of attacks against it. Attacking a paper that was not doing aggressive coverage gives us a clear picture of the dangers that reporters confront in doing their job. |
