-
Above Quotes
He was above 30 pitches, and that's a lot of pitches for one inning in your first time out. I wanted to protect him. He was underneath the ball a little bit and he didn't have command of his fastball. That's going to happen in his first time out. I just didn't want to make too much of it, get him out and not get him hurt.

Allowed 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.
-
Ball Quotes
I think the main problem was he couldn't feel the ball in his fingers. I guess it's cold, and the ball is a little slicker when it's cold, and he really couldn't feel it. Consequently, he starts trying to drop down, different things to try to command the strike zone, and he had trouble commanding the strike zone.
-
Attention Quotes
I think all their command was off, which is pretty typical. We're going to have to deal with lack of command for a while, as most of the Rangers pitchers were dealing with it, too. I don't pay much attention to it. Having them to be able to repeat their delivery is going to take some time. As far as results, I don't pay a whole lot of attention the first week to 10 days.

Doubt Quotes
Jeff has paid his dues to the company. I expect him to be good, I mean real good. He can be a guy who can do it all, there is no doubt in my mind. The Jeff Rowe I am expecting this season is going to be a difference-maker. He has to take command of this thing. If things aren't going right, he doesn't have to fix everything, he just has to put us in position to make things go right.

Across Quotes
Looking closely at these cases, we found time and again badly flawed investigations, and a lack of command responsibility for what's gone wrong ? especially in cases where victims were tortured to death. The result across the board has been to create a culture of impunity, where no one, especially not command, is held fully accountable for detainee deaths. If the United States is serious about preventing torture going forward, there must be accountability up and down the chain of command.

Battalion Quotes
I think, on reflection, that it was a losing battle right from the start, but when we were - I mean, I was - the ultimate in any professional officer's career was to command a battalion or a regiment in operations, and that's exactly the way I looked at it, and certainly I wasn't too worried about whether the war was right or wrong.
-
Advantage Quotes
It doesn't seem like we have anybody right now who will come in and take control of the game. They're struggling with their command and other teams are taking advantage of it. San Antonio was coming in with a nine-game losing streak and you know they weren't going to go away easily. But you still have to make pitches.

Air Quotes
I was one of 101 black officers arrested. And this was April 12th of 1945; they charged us with the 69th article of war - which is treason during wartime. Actually, what we did helped to get Colonel Davis back to command the group - the composite group here in the states. And also helped integrate the Air Force and the rest of the Armed Forces.
-
Bear Quotes
My command was OK, most of all I was just trying to be too perfect. I was trying to hit the corners and was just missing. I felt pretty good in the bullpen and I thought I could do something, things that really didn't work out as I planned. I just had to bear down and make pitches and get out of certain situations.
-
Bad Quotes
We had total command of that game until 7 minutes were left and then everything started breaking down. We had a few bad minutes as a team and that was the outcome. We couldn't control a two-goal lead. We did everything we needed to do to win that game, yet we didn't. It was disheartening.
