Season Quotes from:
-
Began Quotes
Mike Maslowski has been an extremely important player for this franchise since '99. He has grown with the Chiefs from his days as an NCAA Division III player, through NFL Europe, to starting linebacker and the most prolific tackler in a single season for this team. I don't think it's a coincidence that our defense began to decline when we lost Mike to injury in 2003.
-
Coach Quotes
Mike inherited a somewhat difficult situation with 21 games remaining in the 2003-04 season, but he did an outstanding job of steering us into the playoffs. We very much look forward to having Mike return for a full NHL season as the Blues' head coach and give him the opportunity to execute his overall vision for this team and a plan for success.

Busted Quotes
Missing 75 games or whatever, that's half a season your team, if you're a quality player, your team's going to miss you. I think it's a positive step for the union. Unfortunately, you can't make everyone happy. Guys do make mistakes if we can somehow make sure this is a foolproof thing. We want to make sure guys know what they're being busted for.
-
Among Quotes
Milicic created a brief fi restorm midway through last season when he griped publicly about his endof-the-bench status. A meeting among Milicic, Brown and president of basketball operations Joe Dumars eased those tensions, but Billups revealed that Milicic remained sullen and frustrated by Brown's constant rebukes.
-
Address Quotes
Mr. President, in your State of the Union address you said keeping America competitive requires affordable energy. As the big oil companies are posting record profits, many families in New Jersey are finding it difficult to balance the costs of filling their tanks with other critical needs of their families. We urge you to address the growing crisis before the summer travel season begins.
-
Bring Quotes
Maybe we should hear that in our meetings. Maybe that'll wake us up. They have guys who work hard. They're a decent team that's run into some problems that have kept them from being closer to the playoff race, but we've had issues with them all season long. We have to bring our better game.
-
City Quotes
Mentally and physically, this has been the most difficult, most exhausting, most frustrating season I've ever had. Being an Astro my whole career, I felt the same way about this team that a lot of people did, that this was the year we'd get through the playoffs and into a World Series. And I felt that I was letting the team and the city down.
-
Basically Quotes
My main focus at the start of the season was basically to have the best senior year possible for Southwest Missouri State. I really didn't take into consideration the draft that much. I just wanted to help my team win basketball games. Once our season run was over, that's when I really started looking into where I might be going, or if I would go anywhere, so that's when I really started focusing on the next step.
-
Alone Quotes
Nobody gave us a chance at the beginning of the season to make it to the Super Bowl. Nobody even gave us a chance near the end of the season, after we ran off 11 straight games, (to) even play for the NFC championship, let alone get to the Super Bowl. I feel like that's a sentiment we've had to overcome all year. Each time we've overcome that challenge, and I feel like we'll do the same this time.
-
Crashing Quotes
Nobody expected us to be here, crashing the party. It's hard for me to express in words right now how proud I am of these girls. I'm especially proud of the seniors. When they were sophomores they went through a particularly hard season and stuck with it. Now, two years later, they're in the Sweet 16. It's a special group of seniors.
-
Bit Quotes
Nelsinho has made a great start to the season and did a fantastic job at Brands Hatch. I must say well done to France and the USA for the good job they did today in qualifying. Nelsinho was a bit unlucky as he got stuck in some traffic in the first sector and should have been higher up as he was very quick in the middle and final sectors. The fact is, though, that this is racing and that's how it goes sometimes. We are still in a very good position for tomorrow and are not too disappointed with third.
-
Basketball Quotes
One of our goals going into the season is we wanted to be the first team in Kentwood women's basketball history to win not only the league (North Division) championship but the all-around SPSL championship. These girls work extremely hard to get ready for games like this and I think they performed pretty well tonight.
-
Coming Quotes
Obviously we have high expectations compared to last year coming off our first winning season in a long time. We have a lot to look forward to. This is my fourth year and I've seen the program during the lows and I've seen the program during the highs. It's been an experience. We realize that we've just got to outwork everybody.
-
Conference Quotes
Obviously, we're taking away a lot of positives for the season. We've got a national scoring leader, conference player of the year and we're one of the top scoring teams in the nation. I think we're seeing a constant improvement in this team. The way the season ended doesn't diminish what the accomplishments were this year.
-
Happiness Quotes
Obviously you're happy they're struggling and we know we can do some things. But we know better than that. They're not that kind of defense, the one that is 31st-ranked. It's still early in the season and stats really don't mean anything. We respect them enough that we are not going to take them for granted.
-
Coaches Quotes
No one is more disappointed with the outcome of this season than Ernie. He genuinely hurts for his players, coaches and the fans. I do feel, however, that he continues to possess the energy and passion that are necessary to regain the unprecedented success that Oregon has enjoyed during his tenure as head coach.
-
Break Quotes
My confidence (defensively) definitely grew as the season went on, and the last month and a half, two months did wonders for my confidence. Being out there every day after the All-Star break was important, especially when I knew I had to prove everybody wrong, which I've been having to do since college.
-
Couple Quotes
My dad was a diehard fan, ... We had season tickets from when I was about 5 to about 12 years old. I used to go to a couple of games a year. I still remember where the seats were, too, 15-yard line, on the scoreboard side, under the awning. So if it rained or whatever, we were always underneath.

Action Quotes
Must See TV' is a snore. 'Must Stream TV' is where the action is—where Adult Swim meets the X Box. Nowhere but Heavy.com will you find a full new season of fall original programming—humorous, outrageous programming that TV can't do. Broadband is poised to overtake cable audiences and America is ready for breakthrough shows like Dr. Philpra, Colossus Whisperer.

Along Quotes
Moonlight, along with neighboring Big Sky Resort, flank opposite sides of Montana's Lone Peak. They've shared the same mountain and even some trails in the past, and this season they're sharing a lift ticket you can kick down once and ride the combined 5,300 acres. That makes Big Sky and Moonlight bigger than any other U.S. resort (Vail is second with 5,289 acres).
-
Case Quotes
My goal every year is to win the championship and when you don't do it ? or even make the Chase, as was the case last year ? it leaves you feeling a little empty. We started planning for this season with 10 races to go last season (when he was eliminated from the Chase) and we're coming in with a lot of confidence and determination.
-
Along Quotes
My family had season tickets to Arizona State games, so I would attend all those games, but I would also try to watch as many BYU games as possible. It's become sort of like the 'Rudy' story, growing up and going to BYU. Even though there were attractive offers from a lot of Pac-10 schools, in my heart I knew all along that this was where I wanted to be, that this was the right place for me.

Both Quotes
Maybe it's because we have two oil men in the White House who don't seem to have the sensitivity of understanding the nature of these energy impacts upon the American people, both in gas prices and as we look forward to the upcoming winter season in terms of home heating fuel costs as well,
