Boys Quotes
I've always wanted to play at a Division I-A school, and I think I can go there and prove myself. I want to help these other boys that are coming up and give them a chance. Not a lot of people have heard about Bluffton, but if I go down there and do my thing, that's going to put Bluffton on the map.
-
Against Quotes
I've always wanted to be here. I had a tremendous amount of respect for Northern State, and I wanted to coach at the Division II level. I have nothing against the NAIA, I just want to be a Division II coach. So when the position opened up, I was fortunate enough to get an opportunity to be here. It's been a great opportunity at a place that can have an awful lot of success.
-
Along Quotes
I wanted to go to a junior college for two years so that I'd have a better chance to go to a bigger school. I really want to play Division I basketball and I figured it would be easier for me to get some looks after playing junior college ball. Coach Crick is a really nice guy and easy to get along with.

Definitely Quotes
Right now, we don't look at the division. We're looking more at our conference, where we stand. Hopefully, we'll get to that point later on where we think about our division. But, if you look, our record in our division is not that good. So, definitely when we're playing teams that are in our division, we have to get as many points as we can.
-
Addition Quotes
Scheduling teams is increasingly difficult because of our transition to Division I. Losing North Carolina A&T and Winston-Salem State made it a real chore, but the addition of Southern University will provide a great experience for our student-athletes and fans. We are excited about the 2006 football season.

Books Quotes
Our thing was always music. Back in the heyday people would come in constantly and say 'You know, you ought to get into comic books. We could put a rack of comic books over here.' Well, I don't know (anything) about comics so we're not going to do it. I used that space to sell some more Joy Division or something like that.

Anybody Quotes
Our division is a tough division and we've got to find a way to be better in it. I don't think anybody can look at our effort and say we're upset, but I don't think we can be fooled by it either. We've got to find ways to win these divisional games, they're very important in the standings.
-
Conference Quotes
Normally, we would have played another Division 1-A (team), hopefully ... someone in the middle of the of conference in the Big-12 or Big-10, and I think you would have a little better understanding of where your kids are. But I think we know what we need to work on. We know what our strengths are.
-
Based Quotes
Strategically, these acquisitions would be excellent complements to our current network in the Midwest and would efficiently complement the network expansion plans. Consistent with our development strategy, we selected these 40 stores based on the following criteria: prime locations, potential for growth and quality of people. Under our operation model and with the efficiency of our marketing programs, these 40 sites would contribute to improve profitability of the division. Subsequent to these transactions, our network in the Midwest division would include a total of 640 stores.

Biggest Quotes
Definitely, no doubt about it, this was the biggest game. Not only did we keep ourselves in the thick of things, but it's a division game. It's in our home place, it's the Giants. What other way would we want to have it? To get a win the day before Christmas, go home, spend time with our families.
-
Among Quotes
Competition among hospitals results in lower prices, greater quality of care, and increased innovation for healthcare consumers. The antitrust division will continue to be vigilant in ensuring that hospitals and other healthcare providers do not unreasonably deprive consumers of the benefits of competition.
-
Came Quotes
Denver is an outstanding football team. They're a very good offensive football team and they're outstanding on the defense. I think they're a complete football team. Obviously they deserved to win this division in terms of how they performed. I felt our guys came in here and fought and competed. We just weren't able to match the things they (Denver) were able to do.
-
Boom Quotes
As has been well publicized, the golf industry has experienced dramatic shifts for the past 10 to 15 years. With the golf course construction boom of the 1990s, overdevelopment has become a real issue. While the golf economy is on the mend, there still are numerous challenges ahead. Under Tim's capable leadership, our new division is well equipped to work with owners and developers trying to navigate their way through these often confusing waters.
-
Against Quotes
You're not going to be very successful in this league if you can't win in your own division. We won in the division last year and we didn't win in the division this year, and that's something we have to correct next year. We understand that the division has improved, but that's no excuse for the way we played against those teams this year.
-
Burden Quotes
You not only have changes in personnel, but you have increased involvement from the division of administration as this moves up the ladder which is typical of most state contracts. We have a heavy burden on our end in terms of how this project moves forward and how the taxpayers' dollars are spent.
-
Beat Quotes
This is something we've been working for the past three years. We've gotten beat on a buzzer-beater the last two years (50-49 loss to Johnstown in a Division III district final two years ago, 54-53 loss to Bloom-Carroll in a Division III district final last year), so we're working hard to make sure that doesn't happen again.
-
Ahead Quotes
This is a big game. Division games to me are the most important. Those division games, you've got to get one back just to get to even. We beat Carolina (in the opener). And it will be good if we can stay here and win this. Then we still have Tampa twice and Atlanta and Carolina again. So the games that we need to win are ahead of us.
-
Fourth Quotes
A lot of people out there will be disappointed (whenever the Sox don't win), because I guarantee we won't be picked to come in fourth in our division this year. There are different expectations this year, and there should be, but I don't think people realize how tough it is to win a World Series.

Best Quotes
A lot of times, we see a division between business managers and purchasing staffs. Typical purchasing organizations are tasked with reducing costs. Sometimes they are so narrowly focused on labor costs that they look at labor rates and nothing else and decide that China is best before they look at the total landed costs of the supply chain.
