Randy Quotations | Page 2

What are we going to do about winning the election? Where are we going to turn to have a viable chance to win this election? And a viable chance to win this election is coming up with a candidate that most people can agree on. Randy Daniels could be a compromise consensus candidate because he's not polarized on either side.

We tell our backs to just get on the back hip of that guy on those pulling plays and just ride it out. Randy does an excellent job of that. There were a couple of times where he's actually been looking back over his shoulder to say, 'Hey, where are you, baby? Come on! Come on!' We love to see that and we love to execute those kinds of plays.

We're very fortunate to beat Randy twice this year, ... Nobody probably expects us to do that and we were able to do that.

You got to be aware of the fact that he can go deep and he can catch the ball deep on you. You have to be aware and try not to let him catch the deep ball. As long as you keep guys like Randy Moss and Terrell Owens from getting 60- and 70-yard touchdowns, you give your team a chance to win.

You get so spoiled when you have a player that draws the kind of attention that Randy Moss (did), ... You look for, 'Are there guys to double team?' And right now in this offense, there isn't.

We are very pleased by it. Randy Daniels is a very effective spokesman for the Republican Party, someone who's got a lot of respect throughout the state.

Brownie stepped up and did hit some big shots when we needed them, because it was a very tight ball game. He got open and knocked them down like he's capable of doing. Randy did a very good job of creating, making plays off the dribble and finishing. It was a nice run for us. We needed it.

Bob Davis is wearing his hair differently this year, short and with curls like Randy Jones wears, I think you call it a Frisbee.

Everything starts with our pitching. When Randy took control early after we get him the lead, that was big for us.

There's a fork in the road, you can be jealous, or you can be happy. I always choose happiness. Jealousy is one of the seven deadly sins, ... If I've got two loaves of bread under each arm, why must I feel jealous of anybody? Why can't I just be happy for myself? If that's the way you look at it, then why isn't Randy jealous of David Letterman or Jay Leno? Because there's always somebody better than you. The thing is, I would rather just be thankful and live each day as if it was a gift instead of a burden. It is a burden if you're so competitive or so ego-driven that you can't live unless you make everything else dead around you.

The tough part of it is, Randy will never be a model citizen. But until this, he's been so good so far this year. It was a very immature thing to do. And he's got to understand that everybody's watching him. But it's wasn't a career-ender.

I used to think Brian Giles was the best hitter I ever saw when he was hot, but Randy Winn has topped that,

Ryan and Randy are very important pieces in our defensive scheme, any time you lose key starters, you have to hope that their replacements can come in and fill the void.

Perhaps Randy -- and I am completely speculating -- but perhaps he had more oxygen available to him than those who succumbed. I can't explain why or how, but that would be a logical explanation for why he did better.

Randy would do a great job, he's ready to be a head coach. I don't think he has a weakness. He just needs the opportunity. None of us had head coaching experience until we got our first chance.

Randy was saying that he hadn't won a championship since he left Marshall and that (the '96 title) was something he was very proud of. With the 10-year anniversary coming up he really wanted to celebrate that.

Randy wasn't the reason we didn't win a championship. Randy had a Pro Bowl effort every year. But I do think we'll do better than we did last year. Not because Randy isn't here. I just think our defense is going to be better. That's why we'll be better.

Randy was, in my opinion, the best. He really was the best. We played against him so many times; there aren't many guys like him around.

Randy was great, we just didn't give him anything to work with.

Randy was fine. He had an easy night getting there because he had the big lead.

Randy was excellent. The last two times out he's been lighting it up.

Randy was a very good high school athlete. He walked on with us and probably didn't like me too much because I kind of encouraged him to try baseball.

Randy was a guy who got by on raw ability for a long time. He could do all of the stuff he was doing without working out. Now, I think he has something to prove and he's going to prove it.

Randy was a devoted Christian and loved people, and I'll always remember that big, wide smile on his face. ... He was a very dear, dear friend, and I'm going to miss him a lot.

Randy threw well tonight. We got some things going off of Johnson and when we did, we got some runs out of it. I hit a fastball in, and all I wanted to do was keep it fair and hit it hard.

Randy (the Ford's other son) is still healing from his accident earlier this year (he was struck by a sprint car in July, suffering a broken leg). With Doug's condition, racing just isn't that important right now. We appreciate the prayers and encouragement we have received from the racing community, but our family needs to be together right now. I hope everyone understands.

Randy strained his right hamstring. I saw him today; he's been in for treatment twice. We'll see. He could be up in some sort of a role, minimal role, or we can rest him.

Randy shows up to work every single day. I don't know what misconceptions people had (going into the season), probably the same ones I had, but he's a great leader, no nonsense, he shows up and plays.

Randy seems to have come in here with a different attitude this year. He's thrown the ball well both times he's been out there and today was as good as I've seen him throw.

Randy puts more effort into his game than any player I've worked with. Sometimes he even goes a little overboard with (weightlifting).

Randy pitched unbelievably today and unfortunately we came out on the short end of the stick. He had his A-game today and it was unfortunate we had to face that today.

Randy made some big plays. He competed awfully well.

Randy made a couple nice stops. They had a couple breakaways down the stretch that could have made it a 4-2, 4-3 game. He came up big when he had to. But the biggest difference was our puck control.

Randy loved basketball, but he knew he wasn't going to start ahead of Steve. And when Randy became an All-Star in the majors (2002), Steve was an All-Star with the Mavericks the same year. I'm proud of both of them.

(Randy) knows it starts with his offensive line. He made great calls thanks to the line. Mt. Pleasant started blitzing and they were able to pick it up and let Randy make plays.

Randy Johnson from one side, Rivera from the other side. It's hard to face them. The good thing is we got beat by good pitching.

Randy is Randy and his power is incredible. But Wang has the best stuff in our clubhouse, no doubt. He'll be our No. 1 pitcher eventually.

Randy is qualified as a police officer for the state of Ohio, If he's called, he has got to go.

Randy is obviously an icon for this city. We'd love to have Randy be with us and finish his career with us. I think he knows that.

Randy is just happy to see this become a reality. It has been a long time coming.

Randy is in his own league. But there are still a lot of good receivers in the division.

Randy immediately came off the mound and had some choice words to say. I told him to knock it off and get back on the mound. He screamed again, an expletive and, 'Just call it a strike.' And at that point he also screamed out, 'And the pitch to Wells was an expletive strike as well.' And at that point, I ejected him.

Randy has come through an unprecedented ordeal and continues to improve.

Randy had single coverage on the outside, and we know we aren't going to see that often with Randy. It's going to be a lot of fun playing with him.

Randy gives me the deep ball like no other receiver, ... He gives me the jump ball like no one else. Although T.O. is not as great as Randy going deep, he can still go deep in a great way. And with T.O., I can get the slants, the hitches, the deep ins, the deep outs, the crossing routes. And I've never seen T.O. quit on a route. He always goes as hard as he can go. I need that.

Randy did his job to keep us in the game. We need to score more than just two runs.

Randy Daniels believes primaries are good for the Republican Party and for democracy.

Randy Covington (at WIS) leaned across the table and basically told them that this is an important news event in Columbia, South Carolina, that we're here to cover the news and we're going to cover the news. (Olympic officials) decided they had better play ball or lose control of the whole thing.

Randy could have gotten a lot more money on the open market, but wanted to stay in Edmonton.

Randy could flat-out defend you. He was right up there with the best on our team.

Randy complements our line. He sees the ice really well. When the puck comes around the wall, he's got a good set of hands. He can get a lot of loose pucks out to Gabby.

Randy can talk any way he wants in the locker room because he can back up what he says. Randy is very serious on the field. The game's important to him. He's a very focused guy. I love Randy because he wants to be coached hard. Sometimes I'll be all over him like a cheap suit and he begs for more. He's very thick skinned. He wants to be constructively criticized.

Randy came to work 18 years ago in development in Dallas, so he was in the development area until about four or five years ago. So, he is very familiar with the development operation at Baylor and with our constituents.

Randy and I decided to get it started, so we wrote the check.

Randy adds some experience for us, so that helps. He has seen more since being injured where he knows a lot more of what he can do and can't get away with. He will definitely strengthen us at that position.

Profit Technologies serves organizations of all types and sizes that are interested in improving earnings; and we are committed to providing the talent and expertise they need. Gary, Randy and Bill each possess the experienced insight required to deliver high caliber advice and service to our growing client base.

People say he struggled. But I'll take five guys like him who struggle. Randy is still one of the best pitchers in baseball.

St. Paul is still a Democratic town, and Chris Coleman is getting the political benefits from a lot of left-of-center voters who are out for Randy Kelly's head.

Definitely, when Randy Moss is on the field, special attention has to be spent,

And then to see Randy carry the flag into that stadium with 80,000 people. I could see how much confidence he had. He was growing up right in front of my eyes and was ready to take on the season.

As far as Randy not being here, personally, he's a close friend of mine and we spent a lot of time together, so it's definitely a little bit different in that sense. But time moves on. We have a goal to be NFC champions and Super Bowl champions. We don't have time to sit and worry about who was here last year and who's not here this year.

That?s what you come to expect from those guys. You know when things get tough Allan and Randy is going to take charge. They do it all the time.

Ali absolutely worshiped Ray. Still does. Usually, the greatest fall from grace is by fighters. People tend to avoid ex-fighters. They feel they took one too many. Randy Turpin once asked Ray, 'What's worse, being a has-been or a never-was?' Then Randy committed suicide. But the people never forgot Ray. He felt God had made him a boxer for that reason. So he would not be forgotten. So he could help.

This is an exciting part of the year right now. It's a huge test for us, a big challenge, because everyone's talking Randy Moss, but no one's talking about the (Jerry) Porters, the (Ronald) Currys and the other guys who are very capable players.

This is the day Randy Johnson stepped up to the plate. You can say maybe this is the game we got him for, whatever. A game of this magnitude, against that team, being four games down - he stepped up today.

The way Randy Johnson pitched his last time out was a good sign for New York. I've got to give the Yankees the edge in the wild card, Boston is better suited to win the division.

They told me when I came over here that we were trying to piece it together until we could get over the injuries, ... Between Small, myself, even Proctor making that one start, we've done a pretty good job. If we get Randy back to being himself and Jaret pitching the way he can, we'll have a solid rotation.

A big night for him. He deserved it. He played hard here. He flew under the radar, with A-Rod and Griffey and Randy Johnson, but as far as that team's success, if you're going to point to one guy, you're going to point to Danny Wilson.

A big key to this game is eliminating the big play, and Randy can make the big play.

The more Randy does with his property, the more he stabilizes the area. We'd be tickled to death if he would expand his family center even further. He has talked about some day putting in miniature golf. His influence on the neighborhood has been nothing but positive.

It's a testament to the organization and to Mr. Davis that they're willing to go out and do those kind of things and get guys like Randy in here, re-sign Jerry, getting LaMont. It's a great feeling for me. I'm excited about the year. I'm excited to work hard and just see how good we can be and how we can all put it together.

It wasn't something I sat up all night and thought about. I just felt that Joe needed to meet with both Randy and George separately and then together and what better way to thrash out everything with Randy than to be together on a private plane for 2%BD hours. We just needed to get everyone on the same page.

It's a little different trying to run the ball with eight guys in the box. The Vikings haven't had to face that because of the Randy Moss factor.

It's more hype because it's Randy Moss, who's a bigger name player, but if I get a chance to hit him, I'll hit him. If I get a chance to get an interception, I'm going to try to make the interception.

It's the way that Randy dictates what defenses can and can't do that puts him over the top, ... I've played with him. I know.

It's like Randy went deaf this year. I don't know what happened.

It's easy to play when you score 15 runs with Randy Johnson pitching. But it'll take a while to find out how good we really are. But I like what I see so far.

It's easy to compare them. But until Felix has done what Randy has done, you can't compare. It's even unfair to Felix in a lot of ways. That said, he reminds you of a young Randy.

It's tough to tell you, aside from Randy and Moose, who the other starters are going to be. Right now we're just digesting all the information and hope everybody gets through all these games without a problem.

Daunte Culpepper couldn't hit a sleeping cow with a 10-yard pass, unless that sleeping cow happened to be wearing an opposing uniform, which rarely happens. Culpepper has thrown eight interceptions and no touchdowns. This can only mean one thing in Randy Moss's house: Smoke 'em if you've got 'em.

That's the beauty of this team. We have a lot of guys who have the ability to score, but give it up because of the other guys. And then when they're needed, they'll do it. Like tonight, we needed Mike and Kyle to score and they did. Randy gets 10 rebounds tonight and he's in foul trouble and he doesn't care because we won. It's a fun team to coach.

That's the advantage of having seniors, we know that Randy and Allen are going to make those big plays when we need them.

That happens in games. We would have loved to have had Randy for the entire game.

It looked like Randy was saying, 'Yeah, changing of the guard, but I'm not done yet.

It was more or less just an instinct thing, ... Seeing the situation, I just took a gamble. It might be a little bit out of the norm but every run against Randy is huge.

I've had a dozen novels published and have made far more than a dozen mistakes. Which is why Randy Susan Meyers and I wrote a guidebook to help authors avoid making our mistakes.

Not having Randy in the backfield is a loss but I have a lot of faith in Zach,

I want to get more sound. I want to be more in tune with my body and my mechanics, to cut down on my mistakes. Look at Roger Clemens and Randy Johnson. People talk about them being power pitchers, but they throw the ball where they want 95 percent of the time.

I want to stay involved while Randy takes it to the next level.

It's really a great situation for Randy -- it's a strong contract, it's good for the team and it keeps him out of free agency. Everybody wins.

Any time you have Randy Moss in the lineup you have a chance to go 50, 60, 70 yards in one play.

At the end Randy knocked down eight in a row and that was huge. He was very calm, stepped to the line with confidence and it was nothing but net every single time. There was no babying the basketball. It was' I'm going to knock it down, I'm positive and that's what happened.

Their ability to go deep is about as good as any two receivers you could put together in the league. T.O. looks like he's at the top of his game, Randy looks like he's at the top of his game. And you'll probably see two of the best receivers in football out there on Sunday.

Their unselfishness is the reason we can play Randy at the power forward and Allan at the small forward. They just want to win.

I'm going to go on record and say that Randy Moss has played his last game in Minnesota.

I'm going to call him the first day. Roger knows that and Randy (Hendricks) knows that. I told Roger he better be ready to go May 1.

I'm not going to judge a guy based on how he's portrayed in the media. I'm going to judge this man based on him.' And Randy ... he's been phenomenal.

I'm sure it's no coincidence that we're on Thursday night, first game of the year. It's great. There's a lot of talk about the Raiders right now, about Randy being here.

In generalities, thank God people are nipping at my heels, talking about me, and jealous. Sometimes people celebrate my failures. It's just a different take on things. Sometimes people are good people and sometimes people are bad people. Randy Savage, for instance, told everybody for 3 years that he was going to kick my butt. I ran into him in Orlando, walked right up to him, offered to shake his hand - he wouldn't shake my hand, didn't want to go outside. He just sat in his chair and shook for 30 minutes scared to death. That has got to tell you something about his character. He can say whatever he wants. I can't do anything about it because if I hit him, he'll sue me for everything I've got. That's his deal. That's what makes him happy. He lives in misery.

I know Randy has learned a lesson from this. It's important for all our players to understand that they represent this team and this community, and conduct themselves accordingly. Regarding anything we will do in this specific instance, it's a team matter and as such will be handled privately.
