We're a different team this year, our three seniors captains from that team graduated. Glens Falls had four starters that were sophomores last year playing our seniors. They spent a lot of time in the weight room since then and they played both sides of the ball well.

The fact is that mileage driven is a lot less predictive than where that car is based.

One of the things that we'll see is that school budgets are going to be severely impacted by gas prices. We'll just have to bring it to them.

Michigan Stadium is a wonderful old lady. She has served us for 79 years. Unfortunately, to a certain extent, she's functionally and economically obsolete.

We've looked at all the other options ... but they all have different financial numbers attached to it. The objective is to position Michigan Stadium so that it will serve our constituents for the next 50 years.

We'll leave no stone unturned. If we find them, we'll deal with them appropriately. We'll do as much as we legally can.

The opportunity to add a quality opponent like Vanderbilt makes sense for our team and fans. We are extremely happy that Vanderbilt worked to make this game possible and that Ball State made the concession to move the originally scheduled game to the end of the season.

We missed five lay-ups in the first half and shot three air balls. If we kept it closer in the first half, maybe we would have a shot.

We try to sell what we have based on the fact that it is a good deal. If someone's looking for a (gold) piece, now would be a better time to bargain-shop.

There's no net gain in farmland. No matter how you do the math, we will still lose farmland. We're still losing 700 acres of farm ground.

The zoning board did its job. We heard from all the parties and there were a lot of residents worried about it. After careful consideration, the board concluded that this was not an appropriate location for a stand-alone bank and it would not be beneficial to the borough of Westwood.

I pay a lot closer attention to the overall aspects of the program because of the importance of football being the economic engine. I have to.

In some areas of California, you might be four or five times more likely to get in an accident than in other areas.

I heard the live the announcement on WJR this afternoon, and that was the first notice I or anyone at the University of Michigan had received about any of this. We were negotiating in good faith over the last few months, and we thought we had a deal. We wish WJR and Michigan State the best.
