doubt game kicking lack
There's no doubt our kicking game has to get better, ... It's not from lack of working on it.
four frozen guaranteed hard hopefully might opportunity takes toughest win
The toughest thing about the Frozen Four is getting in, and now we've got in, and you might as well go up there and try to win it. This opportunity isn't guaranteed every year. Hopefully we'll be back there consistently over the years to come, but it takes a lot of hard work.
amateur golf good played players prepare
You always want to get into the winner's circle. But it isn't easy. There are so many good players and those opportunities don't come around that often. I am new at this, but I played a lot of amateur golf to prepare for this.
bar bit certainly consistent early elevate gets grow hockey nice september statements strides team time won
Well, we've been pretty consistent with our statements and what we want to do as a group, and that gets better each weekend. We've certainly made some strides in the early part of September to where we are now, but now it's time to elevate the bar a little bit more. The team has done some real nice things up to this point, and we've won a lot of hockey games, but now you got to keep watering it and put a little fertilizer on it and grow with it.
decide four games given hopefully hotter left needs opportunity playoffs position ready regular season team three whoever
Well, they'll all be in the mix, but we're in position right now with four regular season games left that hopefully they'll all get an opportunity to play in one of those four games. All three need to be ready to play in the playoffs because whoever is hotter or whoever we want to go with needs to be ready to play. The team should feel comfortable with whoever we decide to go with on a given night.

I was there holding his jacket, ... We hotfooted after him for about six blocks and then got into a little wrestling match in the middle of an intersection.
chances coming couple good hit knew par shape
I was getting myself into good shape and knew that I had my chances with a couple of par fives coming up. You just have to hit a lot of good shots. You can't play ahead, but it was out there and I had my chances. I just did not finish.
car control hours kids six speeding start
I think six hours is not enough in most cases. A lot of kids are just immature. They get in the car and they start speeding down the road, and they have no control over the vehicle.
bring
You bring it to the bus, that's yours.
afraid animal call chase concerned deer disease fair hunting integrity issue people population talk whether
Whether you look at it from the fair chase issue and say it's not fair to be able to take a farmed animal and kill it - we don't call it hunting - whether you disapprove of that or are afraid for the deer population as a whole because of disease or are just concerned about the integrity of our hunting heritage, people better go talk to their legislators.

But with a little effort, by both employers and employees, the holidays can stay as productive as the rest of the year and help the company end the year on a positive note.
