Famous Quotes & Sayings

Stuart Appleby

I'm at a more competitive level than I was a few months ago, driving the ball better, hitting my irons better, hitting more greens and making a couple more putts.

I'm a little disappointed. I didn't think they could run the ball like they did. They ran it right down our throat.

Albert Pujols

I'm a line-drive hitter with power. I can drive the ball into the gap, and I'm strong enough to hit it out of the park if I elevate it. No matter how people describe me, it's about staying focused. Don't worry about what people write or say. I don't play for those people. I play to try to get better.

I'm always looking for a steal. That's my specialty. Stealing the ball is what makes me go. Our team is built on defense and creating turnovers, and we practice that a lot. We like to play defense.

LaMont Jordan

I'm always going to come off the field feeling like if we don't do well running the ball that it's my fault. That's just it. The team trusts me with the ball in my hands and to go out and make plays, and it's my job to go out there and make plays.

Jevon Kearse

I'm always edgy about sacks -- because that's what we're judged on. But as long as I'm looking at the game film, and seeing that I'm getting to the ball, and my teammates are getting to the ball and making plays, that's what's important.

Kim Clijsters

I look forward to get going again. I am hitting the ball well again. That is the most important thing.

I love a big play, but we've got to run the ball more. We all know that. We've got to take pressure off of whoever is back there at quarterback. We've got to run the ball it makes passing the ball so much easier.

John Mabry

I lost the ball in the sun. Nobody feels worse about it than me. I tried to slide to create an angle, and I still didn't get it out of the sun.

Ty Law

I loved it. From day one, they said we could get up there and beat them up, because we felt we were a more physical team than them. We couldn't go out there and just play a finesse ball game. They are more a finesse team. They are better at that than we are. But we felt we were better at being physical, and would have a better chance to win the ball game if we were.

Charles Tillman

My deep ball (to Henry), the skills were a little off today,

My ballpark estimate is that it would be a $2.4 million to $3 million expense to hold the whole team together. Even if a carrier were able to hold their expenses to half that amount, we're talking about all of these bidders losing at least $1.2 million. And that doesn't include not making their revenue projections.

Lindsay Davenport

My back was not a problem. I was consistent, hitting the ball hard, and I am very excited about that.

Henry Winter

more formations out there than in a ballroom dancing team.

More black voters than white voters had their ballots discarded, no matter what kind of voting system was used. Punch card ballots cheat voters, and they are much more likely to cheat African-American voters.

Monty drives the ball straight and, as everyone saw at this year's Open at St Andrews, he's still very competitive. It's just a matter of putting the pieces together at the right time.

Moniteau is tough. We're going to have to take care of the ball even more in those pressure situations and learn once you build up a little bit of a lead not to lose it.

Monique showed why she's the best player in the ACC and one of, if not the best player in the nation. When it comes crunch time and we need her, she's a gamer and she wants the ball in her hands.

Monika is a smart player who sees the court very well. She puts the ball right where she wants to. And Maggie is outstanding as well. These three players will be pivotal to whether we win or lose this year.

More impressive to me than all the stories that have been written about how he's been knocking the cover off the ball is how he's emerged as an above-average first baseman. He's worked hard, and now I'm glad to have him out there. He picks me up all the time.

Morales is a kid that gets limited at bats but he picked up three hits and the big grand slam. Clay (Glover) hit the ball hard four times today and we need to find a way to get him in the lineup. We have three or four guys that are really (designated hitters), so we have to be able to get his bat out there on a daily basis.

(Mora) didn't throw the breaking ball early (for a strike). Once he settled down and started throwing the curve on the first pitch, they couldn't get up there and hack at the first-pitch fastball. That changed the game.

Moorehead pitched good and did a good job of keeping them off balance. He got some double play balls for us to get out of some jams.

Lindsay Davenport

Monday's going to be a lot different story, ... Kim's not going to let me do that so easily and will get more balls back and will really press me a lot more than I've pressed so far.

Morris and Cooper both hit the ball hard and drove in runs. Cooper has been swinging a hot bat and hitting the ball extremely well. Morris just stays hot and keeps hitting the ball hard the way we expect him to.

Morgan hit some big shots there for us early and (Lucas) Cooper also made a couple of threes to get us going in the first half. But overall we didn't shoot it that well and I expect us to shoot the ball better (today).

Morgan does that basically every game. We put her on their point guard and we tell her to pressure without fouling, play good defense. When she does that, it puts the ball in someone else's hands that's possibly not used to bringing it up and it kind of throws their momentum off. She does a great job. Without her, we wouldn't be the team we are.

Darren Collison

Memphis was a great team that we played the other day. They were probably one of the best offensive teams that we've seen so far. We stopped the ball on them and look what happened.

My goals with these guys the first time or two they touch the ball is to throw the ball over the plate, and he did that.
