awesome believe
I still can't believe it. What an awesome weekend. I don't know what's going on.
believe coming guys maintain position pressure pushing
I believe that when the guys come back, they will come back to maintain our position and not have the pressure of pushing for your position. That's a lot of pressure for guys coming off (injuries).
armstrong artistic believe bringing concert exercise experience good great highest jazz level louis magic mother music musical nature performance performs privilege quote regularly tends together truly types unique wonders
I have always favored a mix. I don't believe in segregating music into categories. I think that exercise tends to be very arbitrary. I like to quote the jazz great Louis Armstrong on the subject: 'There are only two types of music, good and bad. I play good music.' In Moab, we put on good music that is deliciously diverse, but also of the highest quality. Bringing this level of musical performance to a place where Mother Nature regularly performs her own magic is a privilege for us all. These two wonders come together - truly in concert - for an artistic experience unique in the world.
bases believe hit
What can I say? I go up to hit there and I still can't believe that I'm in this situation. Bases loaded, Cubs-Cardinals, Wrigley Field. I can't believe it.
believe gone reflection year
We all feel responsible that he didn't get his 15 wins. I don't believe that it's as much a reflection on the way he's pitched as it is a reflection on the way the whole year has gone for us.
believe definitely fallen good miracle realizing stay team
We're going to need a miracle now to stay in this thing. I believe in those, but it's definitely frustrating realizing how good of a team we have and how we've fallen short.
baseball believe change hard home increase
I don't think the baseball was ever changed. It's hard for me to believe they could change the baseball to increase home runs.
ball believe close great johnny sudden
I couldn't believe it was going to be a close play, and all of sudden he (catcher Johnny Estrada) had the ball before I even started sliding. It was a great play on their part.
intensive mastered skill technical thus
We hypothesized that cardiac auscultation is more of a technical skill and thus could be mastered through the use of intensive repetition.
ball early moved sharp vintage
It was vintage Maddux. He was sharp early and he moved the ball around.
balance ball couple early guys keeping last late locate mixing starts today trying vintage
It was vintage Maddux. He's been able to locate the ball really well early in the count. He's getting the ball down and away. Late in the count, he's keeping guys off balance by mixing his pitches. You can't say much more than vintage Maddux. He did today what he's been doing the last couple starts -- not trying to do too much.
overall
Even right now, I'm still a little light-headed, but overall I feel a lot better than I thought I was going to feel,
fisher foot mile quarter red rock skinny tent unto wilderness
The tent is at the foot of the Fisher Towers, spires of skinny red rock set in a wilderness a quarter of a mile from the river. Intermission is at sunset, a show unto itself.
both good tend
Sometimes when you try like that, things tend to go both ways. Sometimes you're really good and sometimes you're really bad.
