We are at a point of crisis. This will prove to be a very dark moment.

There are companies all over the world that recognize this point about New York. Other teams that play in Giants Stadium also reflect this.

There are commercials that are funny, but you might forget the product. A standard commercial might hammer that point home better.

There are some gradual signs that the worst is over for this particular downdraft, ... We're optimistic that we can get a little turnaround by the end of the week. But it's hard to point to any one real catalyst that can turn things around.

We struggled as a team. They played their game and I feel like we could have been more mentally focused tonight. I know it starts with me -- point guard, leadership. I wouldn't take anything away from the defense (Delaware State) played, but I think more than anything we could have come out and been more mentally strong.

West Point has the reputation for producing leaders, and it produces patriotic men and women who want to serve the country, ... And it produced me.

We're in an inflection point where it's cheaper to learn to read on a tablet computer than it is to learn to read on paper. And that being the case, it's only a matter of time before every 6-year-old kid has a tablet computer, and we know for a fact, 3- to 4-year-old kids are using tablets and iPads, and 75 and 80 year olds are using them.

We're in a much-improved spot from a year ago. At this point last season, we were 0-4.

We're in a housing-driven economy from top to bottom at this point in time.

We start a lot form Tom's feet at center back. Stefan takes over at the midfield and controls things from that point on. He's more or less the distribution source for everything. And Jon and Steve are just really solid workhorses in the midfield. They could play in every minute of every game and through overtime. They're just real fit specimens.

We squandered three great (scoring) chances early in the first half. Two times we were at point blank range and failed to capitalize.

We spent the day together, had a movie day and went to eat and I was hoping that would build some team unity for us heading into this game.

Where the credit is really due is in the early part of Greenspan's tenure: being faced with the aftershocks of the Wall Street crash in 1987 and dealing with that quite well. He confronted some very serious potential crises and got us to a point where we avoided them and are better off than we might have been otherwise.

When you want something dumped you would point to the board operator, indicating to hit the button. I would say we use the seven-second delay button often. Everybody does. It's pretty standard in the business.

When you walk out there, when you into that stadium, you walk out there with a presence. Mr. Davis called it a swagger. I just want to get back to the point where when we walk into a stadium, they know the Raiders are in town. And when we walk into the Coliseum, the Raiders are here. ... We've got to create that attitude, and that's what I expect to do.

When you've got a point guard like they do, they can keep you in games even when you're not playing well because he does so much for the other guys.

When you use the word 'filibuster,' most of us in America - and I count myself among them - envision it as the ability to hold the floor on rare occasions to speak at length and make your point emphatically and even delay progress by taking hours.

There is no question. It's a point of pride for the players, for the coaches, for our families. When a man's butt hits the ground, a man better get back up again. We were kicked down last week, and we've got to rise.

There is no question in my mind that we have more playmaking ability in our special teams than we've had at any point in time we've been here.

There is no point in pushing toward municipal or general elections in Nepal. First, there needs to be a democratic process.

Whether top-down or bottoms-up, the facts today point but in one direction: that of sustained, significantly above-trend growth at least through the end of 2000, with virtual certainty of vigorous growth through 2001 and even the likelihood for continued expansion though 2002 as well,

Whether the boat you are sailing is big or small, the winds are the same. A sailor goes from one point of land to another, but in the circus we sail from one dream to another. With a smaller boat, it's easier to navigate around the icebergs.

Whether that was the changing point of the game, hey, we had time to go back down and answer and we didn't. I can't say enough about their guys. They came out and wanted it. They wanted it real bad.

Watch for someone else to screw up, and then quietly point it out to everyone else,

We've always made it a point to be strong from the goal out. Defense is always a priority, but these kids have offensive talent that can't be denied.

When we went up 4-2, at that point we should've closed it out. We kind of let them get the ball rolling. They played hard. They're a little deeper than us and they had a little more pop in their step at the end. Believe me, I was a little nervous.

When I talk to children, I show them a typical drawing I made when I was six and point out to them that when I was their age, I didn't draw any better than any of them.

When I was a kid, I hated everything. I was really skinny, and I'd have a milkshake with an egg in it. Growing up, I ate, like, five different foods. I was not an adventurous eater. But as soon as I left home, that all changed and from that point on, I've been a pretty enthusiastic eater of new and strange food.

We remember that we were one point away last year and that's added fuel. This is a whole new season, but we should be a strong team outdoors.

We're going to point her towards that race again, and we need to get a couple races in her - this seems like a good place to start.

We're going to go as he goes. When he does what he can do, he's one of the best point guards in the area. When he tries too hard, he's one of the worst.

We're going to give him as much playing time as possible this week, so we can make up our mind. I'm sure when you get to this point in your career you consider all the possibilities, and I'm sure he's doing some evaluation of his own abilities. So, yeah, these are important days for him.

We're going to get to a point where the market is going to stabilize. Keep in mind that really what's going on is that we're taking excess out of the market, and we're doing it in a relatively orderly fashion. In the long term, I think this is very healthy for the overall market. I would call it a period of rebalancing.

What this does is open the door for teachers to bring creationist arguments into the classroom and point to the standards and say it's OK.

What they were trying to do was to invent a new visual language for the 20th century. And what they did was they took the Renaissance window -- one point perspective illusion -- and it's as if they took a piece of glass over this painting and shattered it, creating all these fragments and planes. And then took those planes together and reassembled it.

What they've done is remarkable. But at what point in time do you keep responding when you have to keep putting in new players? They've done it wonderfully over the last four years, but there comes a time where it has to catch up with you, even with a team as great as this one.

What they're looking at is first of all how he came to get the gun. We believe at this point that the gun is his father's gun and it was locked in a room inside the house.
