Basketball Quotes
I would most definitely come back and play again. It's a blessing and an opportunity just to have the chance to try out. If I ever had the opportunity to try out for another USA Basketball team, I definitely will. Win or lose, you can always make it into a positive experience. It's what you make it. Even though we had that loss, we bounced back to get the final two wins. Everybody stepped up and played well in our final two games. I'm proud of everybody and I'm just thankful for the opportunity.

Boot Quotes
Wild Jack made a conscious decision to make the final table open only to feeder satellite winners. For as little as $11 or $22, a player will win a poker trip worth over $3,000. And with nominal buy-in fees, we plan on seeing a lot of our regulars, as well as newcomers who find poker boot camps appealing.

Dream Quotes
When that final buzzer went off, that was just pure joy, indescribable joy. It just overwhelmed me. I looked at my father, he was smiling, crying. My mother, they were all crying. It was like a dream come true. I used to dream about that when I was a little kid, in front of my hometown, home fans, my family, it's indescribable.

Came Quotes
When I took him out of the game (in the final minute), I told him he was a great player and an even better person. He's been such a great leader. He came to practice every day and gave everything he had. He's very dedicated, very passionate, and that passion and energy was very contagious for the other guys on this team.

Answer Quotes
We played a very good team in San Diego this weekend and we knew at some point they were going to make a run after we tamed their bats in the first two games. They jumped out early in the final game but we had an answer and another good comeback in us. Our team is playing very confident right now, they believe in each other and that's great to see.

Allowed Quotes
We ended up building a little Japan with cobblestone streets, bridges, a river, period buildings and antique props in Ventura, ... For the final scenes, we filmed in Kyoto temples that had never allowed filming before. But all throughout, we have tried to pay great respect to Japanese culture. I found the story very daunting to tell, as an American. I especially wanted to honor the profession because a lot of people in the West still don't know what geishas really are. The challenge for me was to bring a beautiful fable to life, to lift the veil on the beauty, joy and heartbreak of being a geisha.

Business Quotes
We encourage the U.S. to move forward in implementing the cases with final decisions pending by close of business today (Wednesday). The proper use of the safeguard is necessary to offset China's unfair trade practices that have caused substantial job loss in the U.S. textile sector.

Decide Quotes
We really work as a team. We're not finishing first, (but) we're finishing second and third and that has an impact. That's what is going to decide the (sectional) meet is getting those seconds or thirds. I think if we get two or three guys in the final heats we'll have a really good chance.

Believe Quotes
We have some reluctance because we believe the details are terribly important. We believe quite clearly this plan is not the final solution, because it still does rely very heavily on people driving their cars, and there are still going to be too many industrial facilities in the park.

Aligned Quotes
We have some people this year who bought a Fan Forward for George Mason. They may have bought ticket rights for $5, thinking that this was the year the stars were aligned in their favor. By purchasing this reservation early, they now have the chance to buy Final Four tickets to see their team at face value.

Came Quotes
When you're in the state final game, there's no tomorrow so you might as well try everything. We thought, 'Hey, let's try the press. Let's see if we can turn it up a little bit, trap them,' and it helped us. We got a couple of turnovers, hit a couple shots. I just thought we came out with a lot of energy.

Action Quotes
We had hoped to provide more advance notice of season dates to help them select their vacation days. That is what license buyers had asked for, however, since the deer data will not be available until mid-March and bear and wild turkey results were just made available, the board and staff concluded more time was needed before taking final action on the 2006-07 seasons and bag limits.

Bent Quotes
We had a mechanical problem we found Saturday, and it turned out it was a bent valve in the engine, so we decided to not make a final qualifying attempt. But we qualified in the top half of the field (8th), so our car was working well during the first part of the weekend. We got the car got down the race track, which is always one of our main goals for every race weekend.

Adversity Quotes
We had a lot of adversity this year. We met a lot of challenges this year, but we didn't meet this final one. We're very proud of the fact we've won 40 games in two years. We just skipped a lot of steps. We went from Step 1 to Step 10. Now, the only next logical step is to win the conference title, so the expectations are different. Everything was in place, and then the injuries came along.

Bell Quotes
We have a lot of kids who have jobs, who are out for other sports or have little brothers and sisters to take care of and they just can't stay at school until six o'clock every night. What the seventh-period PE program allows us to do is work with them until the final bell of the day - and maybe a half-hour more.

Best Quotes
We're really just replicating the system we already had in place. We at this point have made our last, best and final offer. I don't really want to speak for our negotiating team on what they'll do in the future. That's really speculative. But we are prepared to just move forward in the system we have.

Arduous Quotes
We have had an arduous four months where we've been tested under fire and we're looking forward to bringing this group of 20 athletes together to make the final push. As Americans we all know what the objective is and this group of athletes gives us the best chance of accomplishing that goal.

Associated Quotes
We couldn't be more pleased with the support we've received from our fans. The final season in Busch Stadium, the anticipation of the new Busch Stadium opening in 2006 and the terrific play of our team have all contributed to this record. It's a record that everyone associated with the Cardinals should be proud of -- most importantly, our loyal fans.

Adjust Quotes
We know that you've got to collect points, ... Kurt (Busch) last year was very consistent and collected the most points. That's everyone's baseline. You go into the final 10, if somebody is on a tear and wins a bunch, everybody is going to have to adjust their game. But going into any series, you want to cover your bases and be solid. . . We'll go to Loudon and get our feet wet. We can spend our first two or three races just feeling things out to see where we need to be.

Awarded Quotes
We have written our central leadership to make a final decision because we have a tie on the conflict, but we have made it clear that the seat belongs to the JUP-N and awarding it to the JUI-F would be in violation of the understanding that a seat initially awarded to a party would continue to be given to its candidates.

Community Quotes
Ticket sales-wise, we obviously have proven ourselves. A lot is going to depend on if the NCAA is happy with how we perform this weekend. Do they like the building? Do we meet all the criteria they are looking for? And how happy they are with our staff, our community and how everybody performs over the weekend. I feel positive about it, but I'm not the final decision-maker.
