Advice Quotes
To create competition, the distributors - namely the banks - must be allowed to compete over fees and service. The current system does not encourage competition.

Athletic Quotes
Having a senior athletic enough that she can play inside and outside and can move some of their players away from the basket, not having that allowed them to pack it in.

Branch Quotes

Alert Quotes
He was more aggressive, he was in the strike zone. He worked quickly, which allowed the players to stay alert on defense. His body language and demeanor was a lot better, which he promised me it would be after our discussion. You like to see a young man do what he says, because talk is cheap.

Cars Quotes
Just not being a new race team. Pretty much every guy on this team was here last year. That allowed us to work on our cars and be prepared over the winter time. I can remember a year ago the night before Bristol, finishing the car late at night on Thursday night and then come to Bristol.

Desperate Quotes
Jordan is slamming the door in the face of a small, but desperate group of people, who have seen their relatives murdered in Baghdad. Jordan should not treat Iraqi Palestinians fleeing persecution more harshly than other Iraqis fleeing violence, who have generally been allowed to enter Jordan.

Brand Quotes
J.P. Morgan had a fairly strong independent streak. In the last two-to-three years, they decided they were going to try to get their brand name out there to and leverage that into a business stream of revenue that would have allowed them to remain independent. It didn't work. Their second goal: If you can't do it internally, let's command an extreme premium for that brand name. And they did that. Chase paid top dollar.

Coach Quotes
I think the organization deserves better than what they have had for six or seven or 10 years. This is an organization that has seen great, great success, and we don't want to be the ones that have allowed it to go unsuccessful for so long. With Coach Gibbs coming back, that was a step to getting back to the success. We want to win games for a man who's been good to us and very loyal to us.

Fun Quotes
I think the only way to stop their power play is to not give them one, pretty much. We like the wide-open style that they play. There's not as much clutch-and-grab, so we're allowed to have a little more space, use our speed. It's gonna be an up-and-down game - fun game to watch, fun game to play.

They took the pressure off him, which allowed him to continue to grow and get better.
