Cheap Quotes
Friday afternoons, Saturday mornings and Sunday afternoons, those are really tight days for the cheap stuff, ... You may find the cheaper fares Tuesday through Thursday. But if you're not willing to do that, then you'll pay a premium -- maybe double the cheapest airfare on some of these routes.

Almost Quotes
He has earned a reputation as a great wrestler and now people seem to root for his opponent who is almost always the underdog. The gym was quite loud on Friday in Dayton when he failed to pin his opponents, even though both of those wins were very lopsided. I guess it just goes with the territory.

Again Quotes
Today bonds rallied because of the softer new home sales. Yesterday, bonds fell because the purchasing managers report was too strong. Now we go to Friday and the non-farm payrolls, which is the main part of the economic reporting cycle, and if that number comes in too strong, the bonds get whacked again -- and so do the stocks.

Bid Quotes
What you have to look at is what has been occurring in the foreign exchange markets. They (Bank of Japan) were rumored to be significant buyers on Friday and Monday, the (Treasury) market was bid up on Friday and Monday, so there's a very big risk that they've already put that money to work.

Bad Quotes
Here's a bad luck story for you. On the day the tickets went on sale I had 10 tickets for the Friday and another 10 for the Monday of the final Test selected in the form on my computer screen all ready to be paid for. I then entered my credit card details pressed send - and The Oval's website crashed. I spent the next few hours trying to get back in to the site to no avail. When I finally got in the tickets had all gone - bah!

Center Quotes
He can play regularly if we have injuries. He is good off the bench. He's a good makeup guy in the clubhouse. Frank Robinson and I went to a Lakers game at the Staples Center on Friday night and we talked about how much we need to improve the bench, and we talked about how Michael Tucker would fit in so well. We certainly have a need for another outfielder, and we certainly think we have improved our bench.

Agreed Quotes
He let us know early on. We didn't talk to anybody else. The one thing we wanted to make sure was that Dave wanted the job. We agreed to let everything simmer before we started talking. Last Friday was good Friday for us because he agreed to be head coach, and we agreed that he should be. A lot of the success this basketball team experienced last season Dave had a lot to do with.

Appreciate Quotes
Joe told me something after the first practice Friday and it was just a tiny little thing, but it made a big difference, ... I even got to pass him once today, but it didn't take him long to retake his position. It's great to have a teammate like Joe, he's a pro and I appreciate the help he has given me. I just want to learn and get better in each race. I think I did that today. I am starting to figure out this oval racing.

Came Quotes
It came down to the third place match at number three doubles, and the championship matches at numbers one and two doubles and I knew we had to win one of them or we'd tie, and we won two of them. After not playing so well Friday night in the wind, we played very well on Saturday and looked good.

Asleep Quotes
It hurts us not to play Friday night games. We got home late Thursday from Puerto Rico and had to play a day game the next day on the 12th. We can get home at 1 o'clock not fall asleep until two and have to be back up at eight while the other team has been here. They are in bed before we even get home.
-
Against Quotes
Last Friday night, we only struck out four times and we got a (complete game) thrown against us. So sometimes the strikeouts get pitch count up and allow you to get into the bullpen a little quicker. I think we gave (Schmidt) maybe one easy inning, but for the most part, you do the best you can against that guy. He's tremendous.

Almost Quotes
I think that was kind of our focus this week. It's a whole new deal now. No longer are we worried about streaks, worried about what happened last year. Friday night was the start of a new quest. They want to start their own tradition, their own streak if possible. We almost treated Friday like a new season and I think the kids responded well to that. When you can come off the floor after being knocked down, that's big. I think we're headed back in the right direction again.

Approach Quotes
Last year obviously helped us and more than just the game. A game is a game. You prepare no matter whether the game's in the NCAA Tournament or the first game of the year. You really approach it the same way, at least we do. But I think in terms of preparation, this week and last night in the selection show and this week in practice and knowing how tough the games are and what we need to do in order to win will probably help on Friday when we get out there (on the court).
