Injuries Quotes from:
-
Allen Quotes
One of the reasons why they were not going to play was that while we were in the playoff race Chris (Webber) and Allen (Iverson) were playing with a few injuries and they tried to continue to play. Then, once we fell out of the playoff race - it got a little tougher. Chris (Webber) had a bad back, Allen (Iverson) was playing with numerous injuries and once we were out of the race - there was no reason for them to play.

Fair Quotes
I guess if people label me a bust, they might have something to back that up since I haven't done that much. That's fair to say with all my injuries but injuries are obviously part of sports. I think after this year, a lot of that perception will change. I think once people see me run up and down the flank, they will realize that I know the game, love the game and know how to play it.
-
Baseball Quotes
If we had gone 11-6 over the last 17 games, we would have won 89-90 games. That's all it would have taken. But you know, baseball is a game of luck, health and bounces. It's hard to play when guys you are counted on are injured. More than half your bullpen had injuries. It was like all the injuries happened at once hit us.
-
Bad Quotes
If they end up doing that, it could possibly lead to good things immediately, but in the long run, you just hope they're going to see the bad in it. I've had some buddies that played in the big leagues, and you see a lot more injuries now. These guys bulk up, and the tendons really can't handle all the muscle tissue that these guys put on.
-
Bring Quotes
I am confident. I think the Rangers are playing a speed game. They can skate with any team in the league. If they bring their 'A' game and pull up their boots, they can give any team a run for their money. The past five games? I think it's just a combination of injuries and the coaching staff testing the depth by bringing up guys from Hartford.
-
Almost Quotes
I am sure people will recall that at Magilligan camp ... an almost identical situation occurred as the one that seems to have occurred this morning, where a device was left there and a person who was an employee in the camp picked up the device and received very serious injuries as well on that occasion.
-
Along Quotes
I can't say enough about this whole team. With the injuries that we had, there were a lot of team and individual goals we didn't accomplish. But I have never had a better group of kids. There were no discipline problems, the team got along well, and they worked well with each other. You couldn't ask for a better group.
-
Against Quotes
France had a couple of injuries which forced some changes but they have also reacted to their disappointment against Scotland. We expected there would be some sort of reshuffle and it's interesting they have brought back some of the old guard. They're circling the wagons after a surprise upset.
-
Adversity Quotes
I don't think anybody in the country has had to face the adversity we've faced. Coming here as freshmen, going through the sanctions and the injuries and everything. People have said things we've done good as well. But we've faced more adversity than anybody in the country and to still be standing here able to play for a championship at the end says a lot about who we are as people.
-
Anybody Quotes
If anybody deserves it, he does. I don't think a lot of people expected us to be where we're at right now. They expected us to be second, or maybe even third, in our division. But he's done a great job of managing the players. Through all the injuries we've had to key guys, here we are with the best record in the NFL.
-
Chance Quotes
If the injury is serious, I mean, he talked about having injuries and he knew there was a chance it could happen with him fighting two months out. And with him fighting two months out I never really thought he planned on fighting me anyway. I really don't think his injury is legit. If it is I'm sorry, but I really don't think it is.
-
Absolute Quotes
Within the last five years the number of fatalities have been cut in half. From our perspective that's where we ought to be focused. It is what is happening to the absolute number of injuries - and the rate of injuries - that has gone down. Mining is no longer the most dangerous industry in the United States.
-
Caliber Quotes
We are fairly disappointed in today's effort. Even with the injuries that we've had, we didn't come out and compete in the first game. I told the team that we can't 'turn it off and turn it on.' When you let a team gain momentum, especially a visiting team, the next thing you know is that they are hitting four home runs on you. I feel that that is unacceptable for the caliber of team that we have.
-
Although Quotes
He's doing really well considering he's been out nine months. He's such a dedicated lad, and he'll come in for an hour or so even on his day off to work on his kicking. He could go all the way, although after all his injuries I think he'll be happy to get a full season in for us first.
-
Both Quotes
I talked to him about (that) we need to pick up a point guard, and also he had an opportunity out there to go and I think play for Denver. We talked about it. I think he decided it was not something he was interested in doing. We told him we were going to waive him. He decided I think to retire. I hope something works out to where he can stay in the Rockets organization. He's a great guy. Even though we were only together for a little more than a year, I was as fond of him and (Bob) Sura as any two guys I've ever coached. Personally, it hurts a lot that both had injuries that impacted them and us.

Arising Quotes
It comes with just being a little bit more comfortable. I've been a little snake-bit with injuries when opportunities are arising with the national team. I told Bruce (Arena, U.S. coach) earlier this month, 'I just like being here whether it is being a practice player or being center forward.' I just want to help this team win.
