bounce market maybe point
We were overdue for a bounce after some very oversold conditions. Maybe we are getting to a point where the market is beaten-up enough.
crowds except maybe might people played six somebody southern time
Every time we played somebody, except maybe for Seton Hall, they're going to have big crowds there. When you play somebody like Southern Miss, there might be six people there.
confidence contract feels grateful leave maybe obligation observers rude signed spring team vote
I - and I think many other observers - thought Ichiro would be the one to say no and Hideki would say yes. I think he's grateful to (George) Steinbrenner for the new contract and the confidence in him. He feels more of an obligation to Steinbrenner than he does to Japan. It's not about the money, it's about the vote of confidence. I think he thought it would be rude to leave the team in spring training. If he hadn't just signed the contract, maybe he would have gone.
advantage biggest distracted drive gotten home huge maybe playing whatever
I don't feel like we have this big huge advantage at home. I feel a little more distracted at home for whatever reason. Maybe we've gotten used to playing on the road. The biggest difference, for me is that I'm not going to have a very long drive home after the game.

Maybe it was the Penn State game - and he did it playing tailback,
anxious block function holding integrity matter maybe plenty record runs second somebody split trusting yards
It's only a matter of time. He'll have plenty of 40-plus yards runs on the record by the end of the year. I know he's anxious to get some, and he will. It's a function of persistence, holding to the integrity of the landmarks, trusting your speed, and maybe somebody holding a block downfield for a split second longer. It will happen.
book library may
A library is a good place to go when you feel bewildered or undecided, for there in a book, you may have your question answered
writing paper may
In the nature of things, a person engaged in the flimsy business of expressing himself on paper is dependent on the large general privilege of being heard. Any intimation that this privilege may be revoked throws a writer into panic.
cracks may poet
A despot doesn't fear eloquent writers preaching freedom- he fears a drunken poet who may crack a joke that will take hold.
again beautiful boy came front gave laughed maybe record second seen small stood wished
There was a small boy at the airport, maybe two years old, who came over to me and stood in front of me. I gave him a record that you can only get from me. He laughed and stared. For a second I wished I was no one else but myself. I'll never see him again but he was the most beautiful thing I've seen in a while.
coaching definitely game great head maybe played
He's definitely auditioning for a head coaching job, maybe not here but he's going to get a head coaching job. He's a great coach, a players' coach and he's going to give it his all. He played the game and played it well.
asking consider election federal likely mayor november people prior running seriously
If there was a federal election I was going to consider running for mayor because a lot of people were asking me. I said if there was an election prior to November I would likely do that. I would seriously consider it at that point,
ask bit care expects few future himself interested maybe woman
I'd get to know him a little bit better, maybe go on a few dates, ask him about his future plans. But I'm an independent woman and I like an independent man. I'm not necessarily interested in someone who doesn't know how to take care of himself and expects me to take care of him.
call excited importance maybe team wake weekend
I'm excited that the team understands the importance of this game. Maybe this weekend was a wake up call for us.
