Dexter Quotations | Page 2

It would not be hard to come up with the projects to equal the $500,000. An estimate for the Dexter Plaza from a few years back was $150,000. In addition, the train station could easily reach $200,000, just in soft funds alone.

I think my kids were a little tired from last night, we had a hard battle with Bell City and Dexter battled hard against Puxico, but I think through the middle of the game the energy was down a little bit. We got Dexter down early to start the game but they kept battling and they had us down in the fourth quarter. I have to give our kids credit for not giving up there at the end.

He got out in transition, got some easy buckets. He moved well on offense. He played a good game against Dexter Friday night, so he's starting to shoot the ball a little bit better for us.

They did a great job of taking away our inside guys. I know Dexter shot the ball well, but he only had four shots.

I've never had my dexterity called into question, but I think if that was ever the case, I could acquit myself by tossing a ball back and forth horizontally between my hands.

My early influences I'd say were, well, just about all the old great masters like Lester Young, Coleman Hawkins, naturally Charlie Parker and quite a few others that are still around like Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis and Illinois Jacquet and of course my great friend Dexter Gordon.

While the fans see Dexter and Darren making big runs, it all starts with those guys up front. Ben Davis has an amazing (defensive) front, which it showed the first two games. But we talked about neutralizing their front and staying on blocks. That enabled (Taylor and Evans) to get to the second level and make plays.

Watching a dog try to chew a large piece of toffee is a pastime fit for gods. Mr. Fusspot's mixed ancestry had given him a dexterity of jaw that was truly awesome. He somersaulted happily around the floor, making faces like a rubber gargoyle in a washing machine.

I always had a good dexterity. The story in my family goes that at the age of 3 I could thread needles faster than anybody.

I'm hoping Paul stays fit, otherwise we may have to use Dexter again.
