Passes Quotations | Page 6

They were all talking about this amongst themselves - but it was not something that they shared with their readers. And one reason was that they were afraid of getting in trouble with the press-relations department and having their press passes pulled.

They want to slow it down and stretch things out, make cross-ice passes and have a lot of open room.

They were trying to trap us, make us throw bad passes and hurry us up. We've figured out what we're going to do.

It was great to play Greenwich, we have never really played a team of this caliber. We've played some good teams, but nothing really close to this. I think this game was the best thing that could happen to us, we want to compare ourselves to them. Offensively, we played pretty well. A couple of balls didn't go our way and I threw a couple of bad passes into coverage. Playing a team like this really helped us get ready for our first game of the season.

It was just one of those nights where it seemed like we were just a little bit off on passes coming out of our zone. We were swiping for chances there and we had some plays that just missed. Marty kept us in there. He made some tremendous saves.

They won't drop the passes they dropped last week.

There was a nice buildup of about six or seven passes and Eddie did a great job of keeping his composure and finishing.

Once people settled down, we were able to string more passes together. In the second half, they just got tired and we were able to go after them.

After the storm passes through, getting supplies is very, very hard. So it's really in your best interest to supply yourself ahead of time, before the storm even hits.

Any walk through a park that runs between a double line of mangy trees and passes brazenly by the ladies toilet is invariably known as ''Lover's Lane.''

At the outset, I want to emphasize that our referral never suggests that the relationship between the president and Ms. Lewinsky, in and of itself, could constitute a high crime or misdemeanor. Indeed, the referral never passes judgment on the president's relationship with Ms. Lewinsky. The propriety of a relationship is not the concern of our office.

Their pressure hurt us when we were on their end of the court. We never throw away passes like we did. We never do that.

Their outside hitting was good and we missed a lot our passes in the third game, which kept us from coming back. Our team will be exciting to watch this year. They go all out and don't quit.

I kept saying, 'We need to make our run. We just couldn't make a shot. We made silly passes and kept on throwing it away.

I hope we can hurry up and end this game, so we can hurry up and get home. Then I thought about the game and we were doing a lot of things that were uncharacteristic for us. I think the first three shots we took came after two passes and somebody taking a shot. That is not how we set a tone.

I hope that the Senate passes the extension. In any small town, it's a huge difference to keep people in town. No matter who had the machines, no one was going to change the price. It was a level playing field for any and all businesses that had them.

In egotism, one is assailed by fear, he passes his life totally troubled by fear.

Indianapolis might not be interested in renewing after the tire farce that happened in 2005. I'm looking at alternative solutions. The best would be a street race in Las Vegas that passes the main road where all the big casinos are.

In China, inaugurations are frequent affairs, though they have nothing to do with presidents. A news cycle rarely passes without some fanfare over the inaugural ride on a new subway line or the inaugural trip across an unusually large bridge.

In many ways, Tucker Carlson's a better symbol of the pathetic state of what passes for conservative journalism than even Glenn Beck or the late Andrew Breitbart, to name two of his contemporaries with a much larger following.

I knew the second he knew he wasn't going to be on the field making an impact that he would call it a career. But it seemed like he would never retire. I thought he'd be George Blanda out there catching passes at 45.

I knew that pass was coming. He throws me passes like that at home all the time.

I'm looking forward to catching some passes from Rex and just making the offense better and more balanced. Throughout the season, we've predominately been a run offense. I'd like to see us be more balanced so that when we go to the playoffs, we're not one-dimensional.

If New Orleans passes on this opportunity to improve itself, then we're not going to be a company headquartered in New Orleans. I guess that's our bottom line.

If New Hampshire passes this bill, we'll be the first domino. We're told there will be other states that follow on.

I never thought I'd be throwing passes to Matt Jones, ... but it's pretty amazing what he can do as a wide receiver. Matt's just a natural athlete. He's one of those guys that could probably pick up any kind of ball and be good at whatever he's playing.

I'm not sure why we haven't been taking care of the ball as well at home. We have to make smarter passes and think about what we're doing at all times.

If the refuge is approved and land is placed in the refuge, then the reservoir cannot be built unless Congress passes a bill removing the land from the refuge system. This is because the state or local agencies involved can't condemn federal land. Once before, a Texas congressman (Ralph Hall) tried to remove a refuge from the refuge system so that a reservoir could be built on the site, and he met with widespread opposition, both in Texas and around the country. But it would be possible.

If you like somebody, then it's easier to play with them and it's easier to play harder beside them, because you know that's what they're doing. When she got a lot of passes from her teammates (in soccer), she was the first to recognize she did well because of how well they did. She knows the value of teamwork. I don't know what it is, but she just has that human quality that will look at something and decide that's what she wants to do and then she has the ability to focus on it.

If you go back to last year, he lined up on Mark Clayton of Oklahoma and he limited Clayton to three short passes against him, ... I think this guy can play corner in the NFL. He can play safety. He can play the nickel corner, and he's got good character.

In the first half, we just laid over. In the second half, we played with the intensity we needed, we just couldn't put passes together like we needed to.

In the first half, we gave up a couple of stupid passes in the back. They didn't capitalize. It is all part of the game.

I now understand what it's like when your parachute doesn't open and your whole life passes before your eyes,

I really thought Brady did a good job for us tonight. He was poised, and his passes were on the money. But we just couldn't pull it out.

I really don't know how many passes will be thrown my way this season. It varies from year to year but all I can do is my best and don't worry about things out of my control.

I look at the health care issue, and he passes through it so quickly.

In the second half, we were dead to the world. It was like someone popped a balloon. We dropped passes and we did things that a professional team shouldn't do.

In the second half, crosscourt passes at the top of the key, they shot the gaps, and we had about five turnovers in a row that was almost consecutive that hurt us real bad.

If the Legislature passes USTAR and funds it as being requested, this will set off an explosion that will have a dramatic impact and a dramatic return to our state and to our economy.

I just tried to take advantage of my opportunities late in the game. My teammates made some good passes and I tried to work to get open and take good shots.

Being a freshman and never been to a bowl game and getting thrown into the national championship the first one you didn't really understand. As each year passes you realize more and more how special that time was.

Being physical, that's going to be the key for us. They are going to take those 2-yard and 5-yard passes ... But when a guy catches a 2-yard pass and they hit them in the mouth, they don't like that.

His biggest strength is that he doesn't have a weakness. He breaks pressure like a hot knife through butter, he can score, he passes the ball well, he knows how to lead, he has good range, and he's strong and quick.

His biggest improvement this season has been his judgment with the basketball. He's not forcing passes or the offense.

Can't say enough good things about him. He scores when we need him to score; he passes when we need him to pass. When he's out there on the floor and when he's not is like night and day. ... We knew he had a lot of skill. But, he's probably better than we thought.

Before this year, she's never attempted a 3-pointer but this season she has hit five or six. When she's open the other players look for her. She's a great kid to have. Tonight she was playing really well. She's so unselfish she usually passes up the shots.

He's so good from the back of the court you can't let him dictate the rallies. But then if you step up, he passes you. I tried to work out the best option, but he was too good.

Howard had 47 plays, five tackles, five assisted tackles, two tackles for losses, a sack, two passes broken up, a recovered fumble, a quarterback hurry, an interception, and one big hit,

Houston and Dallas are going to make mistakes because they're young quarterbacks. Houston came back and threw some great passes in the third quarter. Dallas didn't tuck the ball away and I know he's learned a lesson there and I think he will be better because of it.

He's quick. We've got to take passes away, take options away, take away shooting lanes.

I don't know. I can answer that maybe when I get looking at the tape and see if his reads and stuff were right. But he was one of many at the beginning of the game who weren't playing well. Dropping passes and fumbling the ball, that type of thing. Guys get so many opportunities to prove themselves.

I don't know how many touchdown passes (Whitehurst) threw last year. But I bet you by the end of the year we'll have more.

I don't know how many touchdown passes (Whitehurst) threw last year, ... But I bet you by the end of the year we'll have more.

I didn't vote for Bush, and I'm not happy particularly that he's president. But I will say I'm impressed that he didn't start bombing Afghanistan the day after Sept. 11. The more time that passes without him bombing Afghanistan, the more I respect him.

Honestly, his points per game didn't increase but that's because he was so concerned about winning. He was very unselfish. Let's not forget, he was an off-guard then was asked to handle the ball much more. That's why his assists increased and his post entry passes increased. He was willing to make the pass or set the screen. Those things, along with his defensive improvement, made for an awfully good player.

He struggled in the last couple of games. I'm just wondering if that's the reason why he's afraid to take any kind of chance whatsoever and as a result, in the last couple of games, a lot of the passes have been high over the receivers.

He threw for greater distance and felt good about that. He also threw a few more passes than yesterday and didn't have any discomfort at all, which is a good sign.

He threw a couple passes that went off people's hands, but he also threw some passes that we haven't had thrown all year. That's to be expected because he's a great passer.

He threw a couple of passes off guys' hands. But he also threw passes that no one has thrown all year. We expect that from him because he's such a great passer.

He threw a couple of high-school balls on Sunday, ... You don't expect an NFL quarterback to throw passes like that. If the Dolphins' defense had better coverage, they could've broken the game open.

He's the perfect quarterback for a team that likes to run it. Because he's big enough to stand there and shake off tacklers and get 4- and 5-yard passes off, which you need to do a lot of when you're a running team because you're in a lot of third downs.

Garrett is our playmaker. He kick starts everything for us and made some great passes Wednesday night.

If he doesn't get hurt and passes all the skin tests, there's nobody that's even close to him. He hasn't had a close match all year.

If he passes the medical, we hope to sign him. We've been working on this for awhile.

If he turns up on Saturday and passes a fitness test, he'll play.

If he's not scoring, he's still going to do great things. He had some great passes tonight setting us up.

I felt that once we got to the 31, 32 yard line, we were in field goal range. We didn't want to get in the situation where we throw a couple incomplete passes and Pittsburgh had another timeout. It's like basketball; we were playing for the last shot.

I'd take her over Ben. She can make passes at me any day.

He's not mobile, and he kind of slings the ball. He doesn't get his passes up real high. Hopefully, we can get some hands up and get a chance to bat down some balls.

He's making good passes at the ball and not favoring the leg, so let's get it going. He's probably as good as he's going to get as far as a shot. Let's see how he looks.

He's made a lot of good passes at the ball this spring, a lot of line drives to left. It looks nice.

However, many times the craving passes only temporarily.

I couldn't ask for anything better than to come out and play my best game of the year, ... Our receivers took 5-yard passes and made 90-yard gains out of them. Everything was clicking for us.

I can't believe how poised he's been. It's difficult to imagine that this is his second pro season. He made so many passes on the run today in Denver. He completed passes on the run. He had plenty of touch, and when he could, he stepped into his throws and fired some tight passes. Ben is going to be very good for a long time.

I don't necessarily agree with some of the things he does. He hits a guy a half hour after he passes the puck -- that's boarding, that should be a penalty. And every time he hits he lifts his feet, that's charging. It's ridiculous. He gets so much publicity, I don't know if that's the reason it doesn't get called. Anybody who leaves their feet should get two minutes for charging.

Colorado really got into the dinks, ... They were throwing passes from me to you.

He played part of the year with a broken hand. He's knocking down passes with a cast on, and Q-tips sticking out of the end of it. Didn't even have a hand to use, didn't even have fingers. You know how tough that is? And that was going into his free agent year. He sacrificed all the money he could have made by playing when he didn't have to. I respect him more than any person I've ever played with.

He really likes the way Kyle passes the ball and also his ability to bring the ball up for the floor.

Her ability to drive into the lane and hit an open teammate is awesome. Her assists per game are unbelievable. Some of the passes she comes up with-you can see some of our teammates are shocked that she could even find her. She takes them off-guard.

He plays great all the time. He's got guys draped all over him, and he still passes and shares the ball. We had opportunities. We had point-blank post-ups we missed and wide-open jump shots that we missed.

Governor Bush said that under our system of government the legislative branch passes the laws, the executive branch administers the law. Unfortunately, he left out one important branch of our government, the judicial branch, which has the responsibility of interpreting our laws and reconciling conflicts between statutes.

You can't really say it was fatigue. It's me making a couple bad passes here and there, not being smart with the ball.

You can talk about the secondary all you want. It's not very difficult to throw touchdown passes to guys when you've got eight seconds.

The major difference between us and Excite, for example, is that they work at only 12 participating merchants, who are paying Excite a transaction fee for every purchase, ... We are not holding the customer's data. It's on your PC; eWallet just passes it through to a site without us ever even seeing it.

The life-night passes away, and in the end, one comes to regret and repent, and then depart with no hope at all.

The key requirement is that any plan that passes this commission has to pass by ten votes, so you're going to have to have consensus among all these members of the commission for a plan to pass.

The first watch of the night passes away in worthless affairs, and the second passes in deep sleep. In the third, they babble nonsense, and when the fourth watch comes, the day of death has arrived. The thought of the One who bestows body and soul never enters the mind.

The guy caught five passes for 103 yards (Thursday night in a loss to New England). Hell yes, they're a different team without him. I'm glad he wasn't over there. Hey, he was the guy. They miss him.

The great passes ... the shooting percentage shows the passing decision-making our guys made throughout. Great job passing it and finding the open guy and recognizing their double team (on Gray), which we knew they were going to do.

You've got to be able to flip over. It's just a different mindset. It takes a different mentality. You go from trying to catch passes to trying to defend them. It is different.

All we needed was to complete a couple of passes and settle down. I thought our offensive line improved 100 percent from last week. We're not there yet, but we took big strides. We finally had five of them together to practice together three days.

All that a city will ever allow you is an angle on it - an oblique, indirect sample of what it contains, or what passes through it; a point of view.

The Chicago Public Schools have requested an additional $70-100 million in state funding. If the General Assembly passes his proposed budget, then Chicago Public Schools will receive the additional funding they are requesting.

The girls just adjusted to what they were seeing. We can practice it, but there's nothing like when you see a team as good as Sisters at trapping in spots and rotating and taking passes away.

The first two or three passes should be used to spread the defense. Then you have a better opportunity for entry passes, because the post players will replace the back of the zone.

The coaches talked to me early in the summer, let me know they'd be throwing a lot more passes than they have in the past.

The first half we didn't move the ball quick enough. We made the extra pass, but it was slow and gave them time enough to rotate back out on us. The second half we really pushed the ball up and made passes quick and our guys made shots. When you make shots, you cure a lot of things.

The first goal we scored was great and I think it was some of the best soccer we have played. We knocked a couple of passes around and hit a good cross in and just touched it in.

The difference in the game was as simple as rebounding. In the first half we didn't block out. We forced tough shots, but we gave them three or four opportunities. In the second half we owned the defensive glass and that made a difference because we only had to defend for three or four passes and then we forced tough shots and rebounded the ball.

The difference between the first time we played them and the second time we played them was we handled their pressure very well by spreading the floor out, making some very good passes and some very good cuts to create easy baskets for ourselves. Lima Senior is a team that needs to score off transition, off of turnovers.
