Mike Quotations | Page 3

Mike is excited about heading to states. It's tough to make states even once. I didn't make it until my junior year. He's focused and hungry.

Mike is everybody's friend. He always seems to have a smile on his face and he always seems to be there to congratulate you on your success or console you if that be the case. He's just a great guy.

Mike is doing great this year. He's a real physical guy and we're going to need that down the line.

Mike is doing fine. He could have played tonight.

Mike is doing a good job for us, but Cory has a strong arm, and I think they'll battle for the position next year.

Mike is bringing consistency to his position. He's been a little more aggressive of late and, hopefully, it continues because it's been fun to watch.

Mike is a veteran coach, and he has been at it a long time. Mike also has a good support group. We have 120 years together on our coaching staff collectively. The right hand and left hand pretty much know what each other are doing. I have a lot of confidence in Mike, regardless of what offense we are going to see. Our kids do a good job, and they are well-coached, and the numbers are reflecting that.

Mike is a tenacious defender. He's just lightning quick. And when he makes plays, that makes everybody else turn up their D.

Mike is a tenacious competitor. He has a field general personality and truly understands the importance of hard work and team chemistry.

Mike is a speedster. He has an aggressive dodging style and attitude on the lacrosse field and will help our transition game immediately.

Mike is a special player. Kelvin is very athletic and knows the game. I feel very confident with both guys.

Mike is a really good guy, a unique guy, and I just wish the best for him.

Mike is a perfect fit for the brand because he has been a long time wearer of the Classics range and a fan of the Reebok brand.

Mike is an instinctive rugby player and deceptively quick, that makes him hard to get to sometimes.

Mike is all about winning. He's the kind of guy I'd like getting into a foxhole with.

Mike is all about winning, ... He's the kind of guy I'd like getting into a foxhole with.

Mike is a laid-back type of guy. It's not that he demands anything because Mike's just not that kind of guy. But he's cool. Everybody just knows right off to respect him. He doesn't have to command a lot of things.

Mike is a guy who trusts his friends.

Mike is a great kicker. I've got some pretty big shoes to fill. Everything changes for one reason or another and I'm excited to have the opportunity to be here.

Mike is a genius. I can really see him as Keith. He's amazing when you meet him, so clever.

Mike is a doer. When he leads, he leads with action vice being vocal about it.

Mike is a born leader. He was really just waiting on his time to get his shot, and I knew that once he got that shot he was going to make the best of it.

Mike is a blue-collar guy; he's always going to work hard inside. That's the type of team we are we're never going to give up.

Mike inherited a somewhat difficult situation with 21 games remaining in the 2003-04 season, but he did an outstanding job of steering us into the playoffs. We very much look forward to having Mike return for a full NHL season as the Blues' head coach and give him the opportunity to execute his overall vision for this team and a plan for success.

Mike informed me today that he will not be seeking to extend his contract as Wales national coach.

Mike Hurley has betrayed his union brothers and sisters. Mike now has to live with the fact that his co-workers will forever view him as a scab.

Mike Huckabee and indeed many of the Christian conservatives in the U.S. have far more in common with the Muslim Brotherhood than they'd like to admit, in that all of them very much want to see a role of religion in society.

Mike Hubbard was not a part of that negotiation process. He was not at the table.

Mike held us in the game in the first. Then it was really of combination of guys that really stepped up for us.

Mike has the ability to be very good. Yet he is still inconsistent in his performances. If we can get him to go out and be a threat in every game that he plays, we will be in good shape.

Mike has such a great mind for the game and that's why he's our quarterback,

Mike has really developed into a guy where if you need a goal, you have him in on the ice and the same when you are defending the lead. He plays in all situations and provides leadership in the dressing room. He logs a ton of ice time.

Mike has played great. One thing we noticed in practice is his competitiveness. He's not afraid to go in and battle for rebounds. He's picked things up quickly.

Mike has placed a lot of confidence in me. It's basically in my hands what I want to do with it.

Mike has picked things up very quickly -- he is an excellent pass blocker, which allows us to keep him in the game in all our one back formations. He is still a work in progress.

Mike has observed many of these things, and he's avoided the less toxic elements of those various personalities.

Mike has learned he's had to work harder at this level and that scoring isn't as easy as it was in high school. He was always bigger and more athletic than people he played against. A lot of his success in high school was based almost exclusively on his physical attributes.

Mike has just done a tremendous job in just his first year with that team. He and the team deserve every accolade and honor they have received.

Mike has just been so good from the beginning. When I first started with Schumacher, that's who I wanted. I didn't know if I was going to get hired or not, but I told Don Schumacher that if I had a choice, I wanted to work with Mike Neff because he's such a level guy. He doesn't show his emotion a lot. Sometimes we have to beat him up to get him to beat on the hood and get me jacked up. All these great crew chiefs like my crew chief because he doesn't get excited. He doesn't brag, he doesn't get in anybody's face. He just wants to run with them.

Mike has hit in the 5-6 hole a lot in his career. He also has experience at the top of the order, so we have some flexibility. For now, though, I want Mike hitting down in the order a little.

Mike has handled some outstanding pitching staffs in Los Angeles and New York. He knows what he's doing back there.

Mike would still get time in the field. We are not thinking of doing anything else.

Mike would spend the night at the house. We'd stay up late and then get up in the morning and go to practice. Everything he did just emulated exactly what I was doing out there on the floor and you see what he can do now.

Mike Williams gave us by far and away his best game since he's been at Texas.

Mike will get another chance now. He just needs to play better; the minutes he's got he hasn't taken advantage of. It would be nice for him -- and it would be nice for us -- if he could perform at a high level.

Mike will be working across a number of programs within Australian cricket with his area of expertise in fielding and throwing.

Mike will be back, ... He had an excellent camp, and we anticipate that this will be a short-term move.

Mike will be a very good cover corner(back). He has good speed and comes from an outstanding high school program.

Mike will be a real asset to our team. Prior to joining ERF Wireless, Mike's career as an entrepreneurial executive in the communications industry includes a number of diverse management experiences that span over 18 years. He has a proven track record in business and government relations in the U.S., Mexico and Europe. He also has experience working with congressional groups, as well as the staff of the FCC, on telecommunications legislation and regulations.

Mike went out there and didn't do a good job. I'm not sure where we're going to go for the No. 3 starter. It's up for someone to step up.

Mike was the kind of guy who would give the shirt off his back for anyone. He was like a second father to my kids.

Mike was struggling with the zone a little. We have some guys who have to start getting some innings.

Mike was so excited he was bouncing off the walls. He hadn't seen him good since he ran out of the cage.

Mike was really terrific again tonight and Brad was good tonight. We really, really needed this win after the last three on the road.

Mike was outstanding. We asked him to do a lot, and he came through. He has been playing good hockey for us. Eric also made some big saves. We needed those two guys in the final period.

Mike was one match away from making the championships.

Mike was not sharp. He missed some spots on critical counts. He can pitch better, and he will.

Mike was in a tough, no-win situation from Day 1. He was being asked to juggle two full-time positions, knowing full well it was going to be virtually impossible to manage it all.

Mike was breaking (Willis) down with left hooks to the body. Mike was throwing some really sweet combinations.

Mike was a vital member of our squad during the Six Nations last season, when Gareth Cooper was out injured,

Me and Mike (James) were talking the other day about it. This is very rare, to find a team that pulls together, all 12 guys. At some point, especially since we're having a rough season, you tend to have cliques that develop or people point fingers. And we don't have that on this team. That's very rare in the NBA.

My judgment was that we had a battlefield commander, ... To go down there, I would have been doing Mike Brown's job.

One of our goals is to get the ball to Mike. We'll look at what Boise State does, and we'll try and find ways to do that regardless. And then utilize the rest of our people, too. And that will help Mike get open.

One evening, Mike Myers and Steven Spielberg were discussing 'Goldmember,' and I just happened to joke, 'If you need a Japanese character, let me know!' The next day, they called me for audition! I find it's always helpful to maintain a sense of humour.

Obviously you want to start, but if I don't start I still have to prepare like I'm a starter because you never know what's going to happen, ... That's something I learned in college. During my junior year I was playing behind Mike Doss now with Indianapolis and Donnie Nickey now with Tennessee so I just had to stay focused and ready.

Oden has more impact on a high school basketball game than anyone I've ever seen or have known of. Then you (have) Conley there with him. (Oden) gets enough on his own around the basket, but Mike is so good of knowing where (Oden) is at. They've played so many games together.

Oddly, a search for 'jeggings' in my email inbox shows that my first exposure to the phenomenon came from - wait for it - Mike Allen of 'Politico,' who helpfully explained the concept on December 20, 2009.

Of course it's difficult to turn anything down when Mike Nichols calls you personally.

No one is walking around saying Mike Bloomberg is something we have to dread. That has made it tough for Freddy from the get-go.

No one is walking around saying Mike Bloomberg is something we have to dread, ... That has made it tough for Freddy from the get-go.

One thing that makes Mike the player that he is, he has a great demeanor about him. He sure is a cool customer. Sometimes in life if that's the way you appear, even if you're not, it makes everybody else comfortable and allows you to do your job better. I think he's a great competitor.

Now, things are different. Mike admits he has a lot to prove. There has been a definite change to the way he approaches the game at this time in his life. He cares about the game and has come back with a great work ethic to lead this team. Whether he wears the 'C' or not, he is the face of this team and that means a lot to him. He wants that responsibility.

Never assume you have everything pegged. Never tweak that last duck, and pat yourself on the back, and take everything else for granted. Because that's when god rips the mike out of your hand and says, out of nowhere, you might not come back from Dead Man's Curve. Say what? That's when you wake up in darkness, fumbling for the light switch.

Obviously this is a bittersweet moment for me, but I am very pleased that the company will remain in the hands of Mike Hyatt and his management team.

Obviously, the game plan has got to be to try to take the other four guys out and let Mike (Tisdale) get his. It worked three times this year and 27 times it didn't. Unfortunately, it worked (this game).

Obviously, the focus goes to Sanchez. He gets a great opportunity to be in charge, run the whole thing. We'll just try to maximize that, get Mike McDonald some work and wait for J.D. to get better.

Obviously it was a game where they made more plays than we did. I congratulate Mike and the Denver Broncos. They are a good football team. They earned the right to play here (Saturday) and they played well.

Obviously it's been a difficult day. I've worked with Mike for a long time. He's a good friend of mine. I spoke with him. This is a job I've always wanted and dreamed of having, but under these circumstances, it isn't how I would have drawn it up.

Obviously, Mike is a critical part of this team, but the players have a tremendous amount of confidence in Doug Johnson, and Mike does, too.

Obviously if they're sending people out of Louisiana, I don't know why we would be going in, ... Our president (John Peterson) will not allow that to happen, I'm sure the conference office will be on the same page and (Athletic Director) Mike Hamilton is certainly on the same page.

Obviously, he can run and do a lot of things with the ball in his hands. But he's a good receiver, he catches the ball very well. The other thing that really catches your eye is he's a good blocker. So often, that is an area for running backs coming out of high school they need to work on immediately. Mike is pretty good at it and that's a bonus.

Right from the beginning of training camp and all throughout the off-season Mike was going with the No. 1s from the get-go,

Richard Pryor was the Rosa Parks of comedy. He took risks and chances that made it possible for a whole generation of comics to exist. No one ever rocked the mike like Richard Pryor.

Rich and Mike kind of shot themselves in the foot by getting in trouble. We sure will miss this place, especially the no-smoking.

Phillip has done a tremendous job for us. Mike is there too and helps out every way he can. If it's not Phillip leading the team, it's Mike.

My team is the Red Sox. At center field there?s Coco Crisp, at right field is Manny Ramirez, at third is Mike Lowell, and at catcher there?s J.M.

My understanding is the injury was very similar to the Mike Minter injury in the Super Bowl, and to my recollection Mike spent about two months in a cast/boot.

Nobody has worked harder to be a head coach than Mike Kitchen.

On the first day of training for this fight, Mike already looked better than he did when he fought Etienne,

One of the most important parts of the kicking game starts with the snap, and Mike has been a consistent and reliable asset to the Broncos over the past few seasons. His signing ensures that our special-teams unit will remain strong.

I was going to throw it out of the end zone if nobody got open, but Mike was there. I had some highs and lows and you're going to have that in a football game. But I've still got to get rid of the turnovers.

I was taking top-of-the-key shots because I was wide open and he wasn't guarding me. People underestimate our ability. We have a lot of people that can make plays. I can make plays. Bobby can make plays. Mike can make plays. They even left Appleby open.

I was surprised, especially with Mike playing so well, ... It was just fun getting the ball and being able to run downfield.

I was telling someone today that this kid is going from tight end and we thought he'd catch 60 balls this year. Last year, he was playing center and now he's our quarterback. He's a great athlete. He's a great kid. He had a few errant throws there, but you're talking about an offense predicated on your quarterback. Mike has done a great job. He's only had four days to get ready.

I would be so mad if I saw something called a memoir, and then it was Mike Birbiglia. It would be so infuriating. It's like, 'Who is this guy, and why does he have a memoir?' David Letterman could write a memoir. Joan Rivers could. I'm just a nobody. I'm a comedian and a writer.

I guess I'm not a point guard. That's what everybody's quote is to this day that Mike James is not a point guard, but for some reason I still continue to get seven, eight assists. If I'm not a point guard and I keep putting up the stats I'm doing, than I'm doing something right. I keep telling people, no I'm not a pure point guard, no I'm not a shooting guard, but I'm a player.

I gotta give Mike (MacDonald) credit because they played motivated basketball from the beginning.

I got hit on my left leg, and my hips got opened up a little bit, so the ball sailed. I was aiming to throw outside to Mike because the defender was inside. In the split second right as I was letting go of the ball, my left hip got hit and I opened up, and it was kind of a duck, and it trailed inside on me.

I have communicated to Mike that we are supportive of his new venture and hope to be able to make a meaningful investment.

I have directed Mike Brown to return to administering FEMA nationally,
