kids years games
It's not Comic Con any more. It's this huge marketplace for the motion picture and television industry. And the toy manufacturer's and the game people. One of the problems with International Comic Con is that tickets go on sale for the next year's event and the place is full of thousands and thousands of kids who have scraped together every dime to get admittance because they want to get all the freebies.
art years want
If I wanted to own some Jack Kirby original art unless it was something that Giacoia or Sinnott had inked I was too close to it. I didn't want to collect his pages inked by me. Of course 40 years later I'd LOVE to have some of that stuff.
art years people
Why are other people profiting off that? I can see that if I have the page and sold it for $50 and 20 years later somebody's got it for $200, okay. That's business. But I had no say in that art being out there. It just really burns me.
ebay years pages
When you're paid $29 for something and 30 or 40 years later you're seeing it on eBay with pages going for $199 or more, it's like, "Dammit!"
new-york artist years
I sometimes look at the careers of other... I guess I could call them contemporaries or maybe close artists; you know, the 4 or 5 guys who go to New York City and get a loft and work together and use each other as models and that sort of thing and wait for years and years to get married. Maybe I just wasn't that definite.
felt free held hit missed opportunity three tie tough
We felt comfortable with the game, then (Bailey) hit a three to get it back to three, and we missed our free throws. They had an opportunity to tie it, but we held on in a tough place to play.
ball great job nice sharing shot
Priscilla shot the ball very well. We also did a great job on offense, especially sharing the ball. It's nice to see, really.
bend game teams
Bend and Pendleton are still the teams to beat. We just need to take it a game at a time.
free handle missed throws win
We just couldn't get anything going offensively. We had opportunities to win the game, but we missed free throws and we didn't handle the pressure. It was a frustrating night.
against crook knew played sloppy today
We were sloppy (against Crook County), and we knew we had to play better today against Bend. Defensively, we really played very well today.
anyone beat close fewer games including league overlook played three won
We can't overlook anyone. Redmond is 2-6 in league, but they've played a lot of close games, including being up 14 on us in the first quarter. We've won three league games by three or fewer points. We know anyone can beat anyone in the conference.
anyone expected girls lose terrific tough
It's always tough (to lose at this stage). But these girls have done more than anyone expected them to. It's been a terrific season.
conference girls locker race start talked win
We've talked about it in the locker room. It would be nice, but the girls know the race is to 10 (wins) and then we start working our way up (in conference seeding) with every win after that.
bend business care crook floor game home nice overlook
We know from the Redmond game that we can't overlook any team. It's nice to play Bend after Pendleton does, but we need to take care of business on our home floor (against Crook County).
