Chris Quotations | Page 3

Chris Hobbs earned his 75th career win earlier this season and is now up to 80 wins.

Chris Hayes had a great game, just a fantastic game. He did a great job defensively for us too. It was a good win for us. Reedley is a very tough place to play.

Chris has tremendous speed and quickness, but he has to show us that he can really be an all-around linebacker.

Chris has to get his fastball down. When he gets it up, then he is going to get hit. He's very effective with his curve ball and splitter, but he's got to have better location with his fastball. He'll learn from today I'm sure.

Chris has the ability to break players down with the dribble or with the pass. He's also a good goal-scorer.

Chris has the ability that he showed tonight. I've been waiting for him to have a break-out game.

Chris has stepped up and has had some well pitched games. Our other pitchers have pitched well. Plus, playing on our home field will hopefully be an advantage.

Chris has started over 60 games for us and this game today was the tops. He's got guts and stays calm no matter what. He never wastes any energy and he never gets rattled. Chris plays every minute of every game and never gets tired, never wears down.

Chris has some nasty stuff and is hard to hit his fastball at 90 mph. He throws some breaking pitches at times. We're expecting a lot of things from both Chris and Andrew.

Chris has seen himself improve and get better. And I think that is a tribute to him really making some great strides as a person in terms of his work ethic, in terms of competing, in terms of understanding what we want as coaches.

Chris has really had a pretty positive day every day out there. I guess you could say he's had a real good average on a lot more at-bats than before.

Chris has really been the guy to ignite us lately. He makes the big save and it gets the guys going.

Chris has one year's experience of the rally behind him, but he's not a Scandinavian so he hasn't grown up on snow and ice, and a podium could be asking a lot. He can, nevertheless, make the top six, as he showed last year that he can go fast when conditions are predictable. He can't seriously challenge the experienced Scandinavians, but he will be close.

Chris has nothing to prove. She's done everything in this sport. If these Olympics don't work out for her, she has nothing to apologize for. She's given back to the sport so much.

Chris has helped us to accomplish all that we needed her to do and we thank her for her contributions to our success.

Chris has had this amazing relationship with people like Dr. John and B.B. King.

Chris has had a tremendous start. To have four rounds of 39 this early is really good.

Chris has had a fantastic weekend. To finish in the top six on his first Monte Carlo is a major achievement and he's done it at a very respectable pace.

Chris has good hands and did very well setting during practice, so we decided to give him a chance. It will take time for Chris to get adjusted to his new role, but I'm sure he'll do a fine job.

Chris has come a long way in the short amount of time that we've worked with him.

Chris has been very helpful. We had a full day's training out in the race area on Tuesday and Wednesday. It's a tricky area so the more time we spend there, the more comfortable we will be on Saturday. There is a lot of current, which is not very well documented, and the race course is surrounded by land so conditions can be very shifty.

Chris has been through and seen it; Jonathan saw it playing against us. Both understand things can really light up, but there's a lot to it.

Chris has been there in a bunch of tournaments. And, unfortunately, guys have come up with the goods at the wrong time for him. That's not saying Chris has played poorly. It's just that he's been there enough times when guys have played better. That's just the way it goes.

Chris has been saying that we can't be too passive and worry about making mistakes. We have to go after them.

Chris has been great his fall, ... He has a great attitude on and off course. Chris has one of best short games on the team. He manages to chip more shots in than any player I have witnessed in college golf.

Chris has been good the last two weekends for us on Sunday. We had to take him off Friday and move him back to allow him to get his work in between starts. He doesn't bounce back and recover quick.

Chris has been a No. 1 goaltender wherever he's been while Manny has never been given that opportunity. In 2001, when they were teammates, Manny made a great case to be the next No. 1 guy, but we ended up signing Dominik Hasek and later Curtis Joseph . This is a great opportunity for both Manny and Chris, and they've had a good rapport in the past, so I'm sure it will be a healthy competition.

Chris has been a big part of our success. I just think it is a good reflection of the values we have in this town.

Chris has a very aggressive running style, ... He has a tendency to deliver shots, but as he got older, he also knew when to go out of bounds and fold his tent.

Chris has a strong track record of success in our industry and we look forward to his leadership in growing our important Colorado territory.

Chris has a passion for cars and I think he'll fit right in with my guys at Team Baurtwell.

Chris has an amazing ability to get the crowd going and get everyone singing along, ... He tries to make them feel very much that they're contributing to the atmosphere of the place. I think if you can make people feel involved like that, then it makes for a better experience for the audience and for us on stage.

Chris has always said he will win or lose this election on the war. This is an issue of principle. Chris believes the war is the right thing to do.

Chris has a good attitude about it. He's always had such a great attitude.

Chris has a challenge in front of him if he wants it. He needs to challenge himself all the time like he did tonight.

Chris has 40 years' experience, having been a CEO in three industries - newspapers (Fairfax), television (TV NZ) and telecommunications (Optus).

Chris Hall is one of the last players to agree a contract. That was one of the advantages of the Manchester United game. We were able to get the players we wanted to keep sorted out with contracts early.

Chris had two outstanding games. He was our leader. The Bahamian teams attacked with very quick, physical guards and it was a good challenge. In the second game he had nine assists and no turnovers. That's a great indicator of things to come.

Chris had one of the best fall seasons I've ever seen. He definitely picked up where he left off this week. He's playing with an awful lot of confidence right now. His back nine today was incredible.

Chris had keys to the place. They may have been getting a Sun-Drop or a screwdriver, or they may have come here because they thought it was safe.

Chris had a very successful junior and college career. He isn't the biggest guy, but he is an extremely hard worker who has a good touch around the net. I like those attributes and I am looking forward to seeing him in training camp.

Chris had all those expectations in high school, so I think he's been through that more than some players have. It will be up a notch here, but he appears to be the kind of guy to uphold those expectations.

Chris had a little bit of trouble early on, but came back with three birdies to finish well.

Chris had a great year and it ended here with another win.

Chris had a great game. He stepped it up and buried the shots. In the last couple of games he passed up on a lot of shots he probably should have taken, but today he took them.

Chris had a great game at both ends of the court because he let shots come to him instead of looking for shots.

Chris Graff is an extraordinarily well-qualified and well-respected journalist who has been serving the people of Vermont for many, many years.

Chris got through about 80 percent of the session today, but his hamstring just isn't right, so we won't risk him.

Chris got more big hits. That triple was an icebreaker. We've been trying to find some way to generate offence the past couple of weeks, done whatever we can.

Chris got more big hits. That triple was an icebreaker, ... We've been trying to find some way to generate offence the past couple of weeks, done whatever we can.

Chris Goodman was a National Academy player and outstanding for someone in his position. He has already made a good contribution to Bath's first team when called upon. Chris is a real talent for the future.

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.

Chris Gayle will almost certainly play tomorrow. It will be good to have his batting, but it will also be as important to have him in the slips.

Chris gave us a consistent outside threat and was always willing to take that big shot. He really improved his game off the dribble as the season went on, and did what the team needed for success.

Chris Gardocki is such a good punter, but you don't take him for granted. You have to make sure he's protected.

I'm a huge, huge fan of Chris Morris. I think he's a genius, and it is not a word I use very often. I think he's fantastic.

I looked up at the clock. The last I saw, it was at 4.4 seconds. I turned for a last look at the basket. I didn't want to just throw up a shot. I saw Chris wide open. I tried my best to get him the ball.

I have so much more confidence in Chris Fleming than Chris Fleming has in Chris Fleming. Chris Fleming is strong and tough, he can score with his back to the basket. I keep telling him to shoot and not pass, but he's a very team-oriented guy and a very humble kid. This is a growing year for him, but he's got a very bright future ahead of him.

I have a good feeling that a lot of their guys are going to have games they don't usually have. When we played at Arizona, they didn't have Chris Rodgers and they just lost McClellan but a bunch of guys came out and had a great game.

I have been blessed to have two great ones. Brian jumped right up there and was able to make a difference. Chris and Brian could play comparably. The only difference was Chris was a junior and Brian was a freshman. Now the difference is that I don't have another kid at that level.

I have a very strong record of stern and strict discipline. But, I am also fair and we're fair to our program and we want to be fair with Chris. In our assessment of the situation, Chris did not act inappropriately.

I hate to single anyone out since it's a team game. But Chris carried us on his back tonight, especially in the first half. In the second half, he got some help.

I felt like their game plan was to keep us from running the ball. When we had to throw it, Chris did a great job.

If Chris was 20 or 21 we would probably say no, but for what he's shown at 18, he is worth another look.

If Chris walked through that door right now, we'd sign him.

If Chris plays the way he is, he's going to be difficult to beat. But Tiger is Tiger. He gets on those kind of runs where you never know what's going to happen.

If Chris can find a message and draw a sharp contrast, he can pull off a win. He needs to build a coalition of Democrats, independents and moderate Republicans who are fed up with the failed leadership, but it can be done.

I can't say exactly what did it, but Chris has a different attitude. I've seen him yelling at people and getting people in line. That just wasn't the Chris that we had before.

I can't remember a team that's come in here and beat us as handily as that team did. This was by far the best team we faced this year. They took Matt away, made Chris work and they made more shots.

I can't really say enough about Chris Potter. He is one of the greatest musicians I have ever known, and every second I have been on the band stand with him has been an absolute pleasure.

I found an instructor, Chris O'Connell, who helped me. He turned me into the player I am today - a consistent golfer.

Great players are going to have to step up if you're going to beat the best team in the country. Certainly Chris carried us.

Given the bad blood between Chris and Paul, Pacific National has to be restructured or broken up.

From one year to the next, Chris has improved so much. You could see it in the playoffs last year. His big thing is his skating. He's such a great skater that he can play forward and defense. And he's got the best hands on the team, stick-handling wise.

I don't think we're going to see a whole lot of people in this arena shoot the ball like Chris Lofton can shoot it. My goodness.

I faced Chris when he was in Toronto. I thought he was the best I'd ever seen then. He's better now.

I faced Chris Carpenter in my last start, and he's probably going to win the Cy Young Award, so it didn't faze me at all.

From then on, pretty much every day I would work with Chris Turner, the tight ends coach. Now I am strictly a tight end. I got my hand in the dirt.

For us to sign Chris Simms for our future is something that is extremely exciting. (He is) A young man that has continued to improve, help our team make the playoffs and win an NFC Southern Championship, and a guy that we will continue to build our football team around.

For the record, Chris likes the 'Millennium' song by Robbie Williams.

Given where we are at in this season's championship, I feel it appropriate to look at the squad and both Chris and Gordon deserve the opportunity to start. Both need to be seen, particularly when you look ahead to next year and the Rugby World Cup.

If it wasn't with Chris or Max, it wouldn't be happening. It's great to be with both of them.

I get tired of hearing about the Bengals' draft picks, ... They talk about picks in the early '90s. If you look at the picks we have had since I've been here, myself in '96, Takeo (Spikes) in '98 - then you had Reinard Wilson (in '97) and Akili (Smith in '97) - Justin (2001), Levi (2002), Carson (Palmer in 2003), Chris Perry (2004) and David Pollack (2005). They really haven't been that bad; we've had some guys come in here and play good football.

If that was an indication the clutching and grabbing is going to be gone now. I really noticed it on the power plays. You know that crosscheck on the back? I didn't feel it. That'll really make a difference with Derian Hatcher, Richard Matvichuk, Chris Prong ... hold it. He's on our team now.

If Stanford was going to beat us or tie us, Chris Hernandez wasn't going to do it. That's respect for Chris. Our players felt we couldn't give him a look. He wasn't going to beat us. He's beaten too many people over the years, including us.

He's had another great year, the ERA stands for itself. I would never say anything to take away from Roger's year, but I think Chris has got everything working for him. ... His level of outstanding work is just getting better and better and better. He started good, and he's gone to great.

He's conscientious, and he understands that we depend on him to show leadership and do the things we have to do on that side of the ball. Chris has shown his ability not only as a football player, but being able to persevere through some really difficult times. He's shown that if you have a great attitude and mental strength you'll be able to go through that and progress.

He is getting back to the level of a really elite player in this league. He and Chris Durand have both been playing very well for us. If we can get our entire lineup on the ice and get things going in the right direction, it's going to be a fun second half.

He is capable of playing top-level tennis and he showed that today. Isn't that what Davis Cup is all about? You guys are so happy, we are a little bit disappointed. Chris Guccione is the new hero.

He is a handful. Chris has played very well in most of their big games. I feel in some ways that I've got one of the best defensive centers in the country in my team in Steven Hill. I know Chris is going to be hard to stop, but he's going to face a kid that relishes defense, relishes shot blocking, relishes shutting somebody down. And if he (Chris) does well, it's going to be because he earned it.

He got hit pretty good. For Chris not to be able to play -- he's a tough guy -- that means he's hurt.

Having Chris (Raines) back has meant a lot to us. He has the most experience along with Ernesto (Chamberlain).

We've enjoyed being involved in the SYNTEC Outperformers program these last four years, ... because it encourages the young individuals who'll be the racing crew chiefs of the future. I want to personally salute Chris Burd as the national scholarship winner.

With me and Chris a lot of the time I just know where he is without even looking. It's just a weird chemistry you can't explain.

We switched things around a little bit. Now, the change is not all Chris (Landsom's) fault. We thought we would see what we could get Tory to do.

We told them at halftime they needed to reach down and find it in themselves to be able to pull out this win, and that is what they did. Chris Pitts did a great job for us getting rebounds.

He reminds me of Chris Leak, the guy we had at Florida. He's very athletic, very humble, and he's a leader. He was calling me and asking, 'How about this guy, how about this guy?' It's hard to get that team attitude today.

He reminds me a lot of myself when I was young, ... Chris has a passion for cars and I think he'll fit right in with my guys at Team Baurtwell.

He's a bit disappointed, and justifiably so. Chris is swinging the bat well and I wanted to get (Mike) Lamb in the game. He's swinging the bat well, too.

He's a great player, man. To play in this league as long as Chris has, he's one of those guys who goes out there and gets it on each week. Just to play this game for that long is a compliment to him.
