Chances Quotations | Page 3

I would put our chances of qualifying at very low at the moment. We are relying on other people, and they are very unlikely to lose. We are not playing well enough at the moment, and that is the bottom line. We have still got a very tough game tomorrow - and we have got to look hard at what we are doing.

I would say he'll get a lot of chances to play for Newman.

If we don't get that, our chances of getting beachfront parks in the future is gone.

If we don't do it now, our chances of acquiring beachfront land for beachfront parks will be extremely limited if not curtailed. Right now, as you know, most of the mom-and-pop hotels are being purchased and being converted into luxury condominiums.

If we ever decided to make free throws, it would've been a different game. When we had chances to either tie or go ahead, we would go 1-for-2 at the line at best. Seventeen-for-30 isn't going to win any games for you.

If we had held our chances and fielded a bit better we would have won the game quite comfortably.

If we didn't win, I think our chances (of getting) in the tourney would be slim. It was a must-win, and that's basically what we put in our heads and in our hearts.

If we didn't win, I think our chances in the tourney would be slim. It was a must-win, and that's basically what we put on our foreheads and on our hearts.

If we didn't score 25 or 30 or whatever, our chances of winning were slim. We still want to do our thing but we've got Bobby and Andrew, we've got T.J. back. It's going to be a balanced attack, and that's what it takes to win championships.

If the rise had been lower, such as 0.4 percent, I'd have said the chances of a March move were 30 percent versus 70 percent in April. But now, against my better judgment, I'd have to say the chances of a March are 50-50, maybe a bit more in favor of March.

I got into foul trouble early and never got into the flow of the game. The foul trouble is very frustrating, and I knew when I saw (referee) Bob Delaney I was going to be in trouble anyway. We did still have chances to win the game; we just made mistakes you can't make in this building.

If they're going to foul someone, we like that. I'll take my chances with her at the line. She's done it all year even though she's just a sophomore. Those were big shots.

If they can leave those two guys home, I like our chances a lot better.

If we can make it a half-court game, we know our chances of winning will skyrocket. We want to slow them down and make them run their half-court offense.

If they want to leave, I'm behind them 100 percent, if they want to come back, 100 percent. The chances for them being drafted a little higher could have gone up a little bit because of this win. Anything could happen (now).

If they tighten again in November, then the steps they've taken in three (interest rate) moves should meaningfully diminish the chances of inflation picking up going forward.

If this deterioration continues, I think the chances of another rate cut are going to increase significantly, and I wouldn't rule out the possibility of an inter-meeting move,

If they were the better team they would have won. We used our chances better. We had two and we scored both times.

If this incident had taken place during the Olympics, the chances of it being shot down would have been extremely high.

If we can put together a memorable season on defense, that will help his chances to get a head coaching job. Ted definitely deserves it. He's a player's coach I've followed to two teams. If I had it my way, I wouldn't play for any other defensive coordinator.

I have had extraordinary good luck with refurbished products, electronics specifically. If there isn't a moving part in the product, or a minimum of moving parts, then the chances of getting a good-quality refurbished unit are pretty high.

I have had a few chances to play with Michelle, ... I think she is a sweet girl. She is a wonderful player, very strong and got great skills. But to me she is still a 16-year-old. When she talks to me she is like a little sister. We'll have fun playing together.

I have been touching 140 km per hour regularly in the domestic circuit but I know I lack in discipline. I tend to get wayward and I am working hard on it. What is encouraging and a source of constant motivation for me is the fact that the current team management believes in giving chances to youngsters.

I have confidence that I can hit shots I want to under tough conditions. I like my chances because I'm out in front and playing well.

I have been very consistent. I have given myself a lot of chances out there. I missed a lot, but I made some saves as well. I am pretty content. I played well today.

I didn't particularly want to go to Westminster - not that there were many seats available or chances for women to get elected. In 1987, Labour sent down 50 MPs, and only one of them was a woman.

I didn't actually see his comments. We made it difficult for Celtic. We put up a good performance and we could have got something out of the game but Celtic were just a bit ahead of us and created more chances than we did. But it does show how far we have come as a team that we can go to a place like Celtic Park and make it so difficult for them.

I don't get many chances like that, but I'll take them. I was hoping for a rebound. I didn't expect a layup.

I discovered when things were changing that one must always remain open to taking risks and chances in society.

I don't know what happened, ... I think it was very costly, but at the same time we had our chances offensively.

I don't known what it is about Miami, but we just can't kick field goals here. You can't get as many penalties as we had and expect to beat a team like Penn State. I was just penalty after penalty after penalty. We could have had a lot more chances to score.

I don't believe somebody like Tom DeLay is going to take any chances by way of his representation, and his reputation.

I'd all but written off our chances for the championship, but they've turned it around now, and it's going to be a horse-race.

I am bitterly disappointed not to leave with three points. We dominated the match and created the best chances of the game.

I believe the more successful an actor becomes, the more chances he should take. An actor never stops learning.

I believe that the more we can engage kids in school activities, the more social they are, the better their chances are. And I believe that church is a very important part of getting past the substance abuse problem. Churches need to have more activities that are social for the kids. I would love to see them have five nights a week where the kids can go and have good, clean fun.

But we couldn't get 60. It's a matter of getting looks for other people, getting chances for other guys to put a few points on the board to augment the 30, 35 that (Scott) Martin and (Rob) Hummel get. They've pretty much gotten their points all the way through.

Bush is seen as a good protector for the country. The more the perceived missteps, the greater the chances for further declines in support.

But even if Koizumi loses, the chances are very small that Japan will change its structural reform policies.

But due to the present regulations the other drivers have better chances again. This brings back the tension.

Bath's an excellent team. They'll win their share of football games this season, that's for sure. We had some chances to put it away, but we made too many turnovers and had too many penalties.

Basically it's a marketing test. If you go to our Web site sometimes you'll see we've got different price points we're trying out for Florida residents. Similar situation: Let's pick some people, send them a ticket and see how many of them come. It tells us who's watching. And chances are, someone who brings a ticket and uses it is not going to come by themselves.

Because of the nature of the charges, we didn't want to take any chances and have him back in the classroom.

Because of the chances of severe crushing injuries, standard dental records are not very good, ... because they're based on all your teeth being in the right place.

Basically, from here out, we control our own destiny. If we'll come out and play like we did those two games against New Mexico, I like our chances and I think we'll be in a good position.

Because of this facility, because of the amount of supervision he will still be under, he is in a position now where his chances to re-offend are very, very slim.

China is a strong market in which European companies have a lot of chances as Chinese companies have many chances in trade exchanges with Europe. China's good development is in the interest of both China itself and the European Union.

Chris goes hard to the net, he goes to those areas that you have to go to score. He's got quick acceleration to get in on those scoring chances and wants to be first to the puck. He's an aggressive player in those regards.

I'm a lot better, ... Hopefully if I can continue to improve on a daily basis as much as I did, I feel optimistic about my chances of playing again soon.

I'm always nervous when we miss free throws. Coalfield's such a good team that if you give them chances like that, it's going to burn you, and luckily our defense was right where it needed to be down the stretch to keep them from getting another bucket.

I have spoken to any number of supporters in the last 24 hours and I accept it was hard for them to come away from Stade de France feeling anything other than extreme anger and wanting heads to roll. We will do what is necessary to enhance our chances of doing well at the World Cup.

I had a silly mistake in the middle passage and that is the one that you have to take right. That didn't go quite well and my chances have not improved, but I want to leave that behind me and look forward to the slalom.

I have a really good feeling about our chances this weekend. I really do.

I have a deep respect for Rooney, ... If we give him a couple of chances he could be fatal for us.

I had two chances on the wing I don't usually get. We have to take advantage of that and hopefully the fans will come out again with the entertainment, but we definitely need to get some points.

I had plenty of invites and chances to party when I just started on tour, but I knew partying would prevent me from achieving my surfing potential.

I had plenty of chances this year to play well, ... I'm disappointed with my play for the entire year. I'm not disappointed with my play this week.

I felt like we had enough chances in the second period to win the game, easily. We just didn't do it. ... We couldn't score. That's the problem we've got now, nothing else.

I felt like I'd had lots of chances during the Olympics, but I guess I was lucky that (the goal) came in the bronze-medal game.

I felt like at the end we had the momentum. We created some scoring chances but in the end it was not enough.

I feel very good about our chances tomorrow, as I did today. Washington & Jefferson was at one point ranked No. 23 in (NCAA) Division III, so I think they have a little more talent than Fitchburg does. We're just going to go out and play and let everything else take care of itself.

I feel good about our chances (Saturday). We've got a good pitcher on the mound, and hopefully we can swing the bats a little better.

I feel good about our chances going into this tournament based on our team. If we end up playing on Sunday for that championship, I think our confidence is going to be the biggest thing. And passion, heart. We've got so much on this team, it's incredible.

If caught in an avalanche your chances are slim. Even if the guys with you have their act together.

I feel like we've been waiting for this day a long time. We're anxious to get on the floor and hit our peak performance because we haven't done that yet. We feel like it's our weekend. I'm as comfortable with this team's chances of winning a national title as any other team we've had.

I feel terrible for him. It's not an impressive way to play the game when we give up all those scoring chances in the first 10 minutes.

I can't fault my players. They worked as hard as always. We created a lot of chances but we missed out on a victory because of the woodwork and goalkeeper Bonano, who did really well,

I can't remember a year when there's been this much parity in baseball, when so many teams are still in contention. This could be one of those unique years where everyone stays in contention until the end of September. But, chances are, as we get into the middle of August, some teams will start to fall to the wayside.

I can't really say a whole lot that you can print. Any time you give up three power-play goals in a game, your chances of winning aren't very good. We had a lot of guys who were taxed by all the penalties these last two games.

I can think of maybe one and a half good chances we had tonight. I think that Kevin (Hartman) came up big to keep us in it. But it just wasn't good enough.

Give a lot of credit to Maryland. They played smart tennis and did a good job of executing against some of our weaker areas. Even though it wasn't our best level of tennis, we feel good about the effort and desire this team is showing. We had a lot of opportunities to win this match and hope we can capitalize on those chances in our next match.

Frankly, I would give the chances of there being a winner at 50/50 or a little under that. It's tough.

Francis has set us another very high benchmark - the chances of breaking it are very slim but if we don't try, we won't know.

For sure, all over Poland, kids had my picture of a lemur on their bedroom wall - but the chances are they may never get to see a real lemur in Madagascar. I thought this was great and it really meant a lot to me.

From my own observation, I can tell you that there is some concern by many Palestinians about their daily living, their daily income, and people quite afraid from the chances of some humanitarian catastrophe.

Gaining more experience on asphalt is one of Chris's development objectives this year. The challenging stages in Ireland will be great practice for him. He needs all the asphalt experience he can get but, in particular, coming from sunny Australia, he hasn't had many chances to drive in the wet - that shouldn't be a problem in Ireland!

I don't think anyone went the polls and said, 'I am casting my vote to make sure that Wall Street has better chances to make bigger profits off the backs of the American people.'

I don't think a lot of women know how much their chances of having a child diminish as they age.

If a wolverine gets above them, they have better chances of getting a kid or driving a goat off a cliff.

If Australia want to regain the Ashes they would dramatically improve their chances by appointing Shane Warne as captain,

If a trade happens, it could change the dynamics of your team. We're kind of in limbo right now. But if they make a trade, chances are that we'll get someone back.

I fancied my chances against anyone that was left in.

I don't think we took advantage of some early chances (to score). But they did a great job.

I don't understand it. We played two tremendous games Thursday and Saturday. The success of this team is pretty simple. We're not a great goal-scoring machine, so if we think that we're going to play that way we're never going to be successful. The success this team has had is when it has played methodically well, sound defense and doesn't give any chances to the opposition.

I expected it to be tough, and this would have been a great atmosphere no matter what. Usually, when Kansas comes to town it adds spice to the game. When we don't play well on the road, our chances aren't good because usually teams are pumped to play us.

I don't think our power play generated enough quality chances from the start. They've got the best penalty kill in the league.

I don't think one win or one loss puts you in or takes you out. I really don't believe it works that way. I think the thing that is helpful for us and healthy for us is to focus on what's in front of us. If we can somehow put together a terrific effort and win that first game, then I can say it doesn't hurt our chances for making the NCAA tournament field.

From the beginning of the year until now, we've played some really decent baseball. When we're on, we're a good team. When we get our thing together, we can play with anybody. Our chances are as good as anybody's. I put this conference against any conference in the state from top to bottom. Throughout this season we've just beat each other up. On any given day, 1-through-11 has a chance to win it.

For me, the Tour started today and I really wanted to win a stage because, after next Sunday, there will not be that many chances for sprinters to win stages and the man in the green jersey might take it to Paris,

For us to be successful, I've said it many times, we need to be skating. I felt with our skating we've created a lot chances the past few games and, yes, we did get a few bounces going our way. But I think with our skating we created a lot of opportunities and maybe that's what created those bounces.

Fortunately we're six games up going into tonight, and we have a little bit of a cushion. It's not comfortable by any means, but we like our chances and we're able to do this.

For the way we played, we got exactly what we deserved. We didn't play sound, fundamental baseball. That's the first time in a while we've given up a big inning, and we had our chances to minimize the damage.

'Glee Project' and 'Glee' have the same spirit, but they're both harder in their own ways. With 'Glee Project,' there's more pressure because you're being judged in everything you do. When you film 'Glee,' you go to the studio and have an off day, and it's OK - you're still going to be there; you take as many chances as you need.

Goalies are either going to be the first star because they have to stop so many chances or it's going to be a long night. Once a couple get by you, you start guessing a little bit, and it sort of compounds things. But Al is mentally strong and bounces back. I thought it was a real good show of character. It was 6-0, but there were some timely saves that could have swung the game.

If it doesn't look right, chances are it's not,

If it stays soft, somebody could go low. If you drive the ball straight enough, you can shoot some low numbers. Whether you can do four of them or not, we'll see. I know that sounds very obvious, but there are chances out there.

If it was one-game elimination, youth would probably win, ... But since it is a series, I like our chances because of our experience in big games games even bigger than the WNBA playoffs.

I got a lucky bounce on the first one, and I got lucky on the second one, too. I think I've been getting a lot of chances lately. I just haven't been burning them. It was nice for us to put a couple in.

I got a lot of chances to win the match. I can't understand how I missed that opportunity to win it.

I got a little frustrated at times because I thought there were chances for us to break open the game. I'll probably watch the tape and say it was as much Rice as it was our guys.
