Tim Thompson Quotations

No one ever wants to see moose hit, but at least now we'll see a more effective method of distributing the meat.

Only having one senior gives us a lot to look forward to next year.

I was impressed ... with how well they've progressed.

I wish there was a better word for it, because I can't use it in any of my marketing, but it really is the essence of what we're doing. People want to come to meet one person, make all their decisions and do everything in one place. In 2006, people want simplicity and convenience.

I thought we played really hard. We didn't play our best game. But I'm really proud of our guys. It would have been great to continue it. I'm glad they got to experience as much as they did.

I was just hoping for overtime. But Josh has made some plays for us this year and this was no different. I just didn't quite expect it to come right there.

We just couldn't do anything. We'd hit it right at the goalie or push it too far. We had so many chances in the second half it wasn't funny.

When it is just Brant Quick back in the backfield, I think we could have contained him, ... but trying to contain everything they have... they have a lot of weapons.

We played hard and made some great improvements since our first game, but there is still work to do.

Tyler just made a beautiful play. People don't realize how quick and skilled he is. But he's pure heart and determination.

When you started thinking your going to make a mistake, you've talked yourself into making it.

We were a little disappointed. She had a decent point total, but I think coming off yesterday's performances and such a long day, her energy level was down. Brittney had a great long jump, but we didn't quite get what we wanted out of the javelin and 800 meters.

Finishing with our record is pretty dog-gone-good for a first year program.

We are trying to work hard on the defense. When someone gets the ball, we need to run diagonals to confuse them and it's hard to get that through to them.

Blair pitched a great game. It's tough going against him twice early in the season because of the way the scheduling was set up this year.

There's going to be some really exciting stuff.

Prices used to fluctuate pennies from year to year. Now, I have to knock on doors and try to figure out how much people will be able to pay. This is going to be very hard on ordinary folks.

The brome grass is going to provide OK cover early in the season. You could see, though, that all the snow had knocked it down. We hunted some weedy food plots that stood up well.

You don't see a team behind shooting three air balls and coming back to win, so we got a little bit rattled. But I never thought that we were melting down.

This is the NFL. Things like this happen, ... You can't cry in your milk.

I told the girls that we have got to treat each of the next seven games as our district.

I'd much rather shoot a bird over point than take a passing shot at one that just flushed wild, just because I happened to be at the end of the field. If you get a bird this time of year, it's really a bonus for you and the dog.

You could see in those food plots, there were pheasant tracks everywhere. The birds heard us coming and were out the other end.
