Chuck D. Good Quotations

We started off slow and then put it together to get our scoring going. It's good to be 3-0 at this time in district play.

We're starting to get some really good swings up there, but we're also showing a lot of patience at the plate. Now that we're getting some real work in, things are starting to look up. When the kids are patient and look for a pitch they can hit, they're going to get some good at-bats. I don't think scoring should be a problem for us this year if we continue to show good discipline at the plate.

Rhett threw an outstanding game for us today. This was actually his third appearance of the year, and he's had a good outing every time.

He had quite a lot of catches last year. We put him out there in a spread (formation) and had him run routes. I think he's got some good hands and he's got some speed.

This wasn't very controversial, and we think this will be good practice. Management may not always want to know this information, but as auditors, we shouldn't be putting ourselves in the position of determining what they should know. We should communicate to those charged with governance and then let them do with that information what they best see fit.

We've executed and gotten the ball to guys who can score. We've established our inside game and played pretty good defense.

He's a big boy, so he's got a real good target. I let him call the game, I just throw what he calls. He takes a lot of pressure off my back.

He's a good kid. Michael, overall, had a fine football game.

He's a very good athlete, first of all. It looks like things come pretty easily to him. He has a great arm and great stuff.

His three-point shot isn't as good as he thinks it is.

Jake is a 100-yard threat running the ball, he's a good thrower and he has a great understanding of our offense.

John does a pretty good job of keeping his composure. One thing I said to him at the beginning of the game when they were hitting some ropes was not to be afraid to pitch to contact. Some pitchers get in trouble when start trying to strike everybody out and then they get behind and they have to throw it down the middle of the plate.

I think it's going to be a backyard brawl and it would be great to get that first 'W' on the board. But it's going to be like a street fight. This is the best JB team I've seen since I've been here (18 years). They've got good size and are physical. So we're expecting a fight.

I was actually thinking of going online after we got out of (the selection show). But I know that if we have good defense, we'll have a chance to win that ballgame.

Last season we kind of planned where guys were going to go. Guys followed through by lifting and using proper weight-cutting techniques. All of them have been good seniors this year. It's really been a true team effort.

Our running game is going to be solid, ... but our passing game may be as good as it's ever been.

Right now, our biggest challenge is getting a few games and some good outdoor practices in. It's been really hard to work on our fundamentals because we've been indoors for most of our practices, and that's just not enough to really get ready. We're also a pretty young team, especially in our pitching staff, so we just really need those extra games that we've lost.

My parents were both very supportive of the idea of my being an artist. I had trouble in school, and I think they wanted me to feel good about myself and feel special, so when I exhibited interest in magic, they would help me do magic shows, and puppets, and also they got me private art instruction when I was about 8.

It doesn't mean that in this island environment that there can't have been some kind of vermin or termite infestation. But basically you have a good set of poles out here. Something happened that is very serious and we need to take a full look at it.

We played great in the second half. When we play against good competition we barely have one goal. We've got to put things together offensively. We've got good players and are fast. We've got to find a way to finish.

We are now producing a significant amount of oil from the North Slope of Alaska, all (with) environmentally sound technology, ... That environment has not been disrupted ... it's in as good a shape as before we ever put a drill in there.

When you look at it top to bottom, we've got five pretty good teams right here and we're playing everybody. I think it's a very, very strong year thus far.

Two good coaching staffs, two great football teams. I think this will be great for America.

We wanted to be able to attack and not be passive. We have some really good athletes, and they can use their athleticism more inside than outside I think.

We've had really good teams in every sport, we've just never been able to get ahead of the private schools.

To me a broad-base rally is what you need right now. Breadth like this is good because it means people are willing to put money into a variety of stocks.

We weren't surprised (Aurora West) made a run at us because they have a lot of quickness that you just can't simulate in practice. Their 1-2-2 zone can cause problems, but if you move the ball and make good passes, it can open some shots up, and Jordan and Logan made a couple of big 3s against it.

We felt good about him being in there. He's in command. He's good on the sideline. We wanted to keep that rhythm going if we could.

Andy didn't throw an 11-4 game. It's a shame. I know it's an oversimplification but there are really three aspects to this game -- you have to hit the ball, throw it and catch it. And this week we haven't been able to put all of those together. Our consistency has to get better. They can be a really good team -- there's a lot of potential there. But when you don't do everything right, every little thing gets magnified. They have to realize how good they can be.

I've been coaching Marissa in softball since she was about 7 or 8, and she's a very good ball player. I felt this would be a great opportunity to go to Europe and put a finishing touch on her youth career before she goes to college.

I wanted to get Bobby and Andre in the game. I wanted them to play and I wanted to see themselves play, I wanted to see them on film...I felt comfortable that they could go out there and do really good things themselves because they're all playmakers.

This is really good snow on a very firm base. We got all that rain mixed with the snow, and that made our base very solid. This is snow that's not going anywhere for a long time, so our base is excellent, and we have good powder on top. That's why the skiing is just great.

They have great inside players and some good guards outside. They're going to be a tough challenge for us. We'll have to play a really good game in order to beat them, especially at home.

It's a shame you have to pick, because they're all going to play. It's been a real good competition with all of them. It's a great thing to have.

It's a good indicator of just general growth, which benefits all areas of the economy.

It's the tension between the marks on a flat surface, and then the image built, that interested me. And I was always a dyed-in-the-wool formalist anyway. I think process sets you free, because you know you don't have good days or bad days. You just show up. You don't wait for inspiration.

It's been a good group of girls, and they will be missed. No problems, and they work real hard. We know what (Claiborne) has. It may be this year, but if we get that far, we'll relish the opportunity to play them again. We're not in awe of them. We just want to beat them. We've played a good schedule, and we're ready to get back to South State.

It's an extremely good opening and we're all proud as can be. It's going to be a shade above 'Princess Diaries' first week (of) $37.8 million. We'll be $39 million-something for the first seven days.

They jumped to a zone and we've been practicing a lot of shooting. We banged our shots. We played very good 'D' that quarter, too.

The kids hit the ball well today - in fact, if anything we might have been a little too aggressive at the plate. Jared and Ethan both had very good at-bats.

In the first half it was real competitive. We played good defense. But they had a couple little spurts - one at the end of the first half and one in the third quarter - where they scored some points real quick.

In this case, the law enforcement officers felt that the jury's verdict was insufficient to the cause justice. Three men, good, veteran officers were murdered in cold-blood by a coward who surrendered to the tactical unit that responded because he was afraid getting shot himself. The jury's sentencing recommendation was not good enough.

He's got a good arm; he can throw in the 90s. He was nervous and tight. He didn't pitch, he threw.

The economy is strong, and people are not only taking vacations, but businesses also are sending more folks out on trips. Also, I think it has to do with competition in the airline market. There are some really good fares out there.
