We played an amazing game in the second half to get back. Somebody had to win and somebody had to lose. Today they were six goals better because we didn't decide to give it everything until the second half.

Sue Chittim

A smiling face is half the meal.

Latvian Proverb

If we'd have played as hard the first half as we did in the second, we wouldn't have needed to come back.

Tonya Voeller

The first guy who ran at him the other night was cut in half.

Peter O'meara

We fell behind in the second half because we played kind of lazy.

Sonya Harris

We just didn't get the job done. We couldn't get anyone to step up in the second half.

Gary Ballestrini

Half the stocks I picked are up and half of them are down.

Leon Cooperman

Our girls played a very good first half. Lindsey was strong for us in the early going.

Jerry Potts

The Weather Channel was in Covington, and they showed the old movie theater, and half of it was gone.

Scott Ward

Some people use one half their ingenuity to get into debt, and the other half to avoid paying it.

George Dennison Prentice

Our defensive intensity in the second half is what did it for us.

Jeff Steele

We hadn't faced a lot of teams that pressured us and picked us up at half court.

Josh Hartman

In the first half we were physical and did what we had to do.

Larry Strawoet

That was helpful, but her on the bench in the first half (with three fouls) wasn't helpful.

Caryn Jarocki

I thank God we had Soto in the first half.

Rex Morgan

I think we played a lot better in the second half, but it didn't change the score.

Larry Mikesell

It was great how we came back. We were down in the first half. ... We were intimidated because they were the No. 1 team last time and we had never been to this gym.

Nicole Lawton

It's awfully hard to be the son of a great man and also of a half-crazy woman.

Henry Steele Commager

I think we played more disciplined in the second half. I just think we executed more in the second half.

Duane Starks

The girls played an unbelievable first half. It was probably the best I'd ever seen us play.

Lori Rubino

Shaun Berrigan finished up playing half-back - he's about our fifth-choice half-back in this club.

Wayne Bennett

We're only halfway done. We've had a great first (half), but those don't mean anything if you miss the playoffs.

Jarret Stoll

We might have been a little comfortable with the lead and didn't come back out with the right attitude. We just didn't do what we did in the first half.

Jabari Levey

We finally decided to play in the second half.

Gabrielle Castro

One half who graduate from college never read another book.

G. M. Trevelyan

We were disciplined in the second half, though, and we made it through as group winners, when no one thought we had a chance.

Klaus Augenthaler

We were really fortunate to win this game. It's too bad because I thought in that first half we had so many missed opportunities.

Paul Sather

To be prepared is half the victory.

Miguel De Cervantes Saavedra

It's that dark cloud, the glass half empty on everything you do. It just becomes too much for me. So I unplugged myself.

Toby Keith

We didn't get very many shots at the basket in the second half. We couldn't take care of the ball.

Cathy Spencer

Our main focus was to come out (in the first half) and execute. I guess we did execute, because (Jacksonville) is a very competitive team.

Andre Morgan

They made some great adjustments in the second half. We obviously didn't do a good enough job in finishing.

Ladainian Tomlinson

We are used to Cheshire being very good but I think they were more shocked in the first half.

Christina Donigian

I expect us to be competitive. That's always an expectation at Austin Peay. Coach Holt has laid that foundation since she has been here. We have always been in the top half of the conference and that's always the expectations that we have.

Corey Carlin

We certainly expect the second half of the year to be considerably better than the first.

Fritz Henderson

We had things set up for her, but we only used them a few times in the first half. We knew where she was on the court at all times.

George Dudas

We just did not penetrate the zone Oconomowoc threw at us in the first half.

Todd Hoffman

Half of those were very well defended and contested. Those are the ones that take your breath away and take the wind from an opponent's sails.

Bruce Pearl

If the Fed is right and the economy continues to expand, we'll see that happen and see it reflected in the earnings for the second half.

William Hummer

I'd say the glass is half-full. We were really in it to the end. They gave us a lot to watch this month.

Michelle Campbell

The girls responded well and forced turnovers in the second half.

Gene Rasmussen

It's probably a list of about 50 witnesses, about half of which I expect to testify.

Dan Petrocelli

We are half way to anywhere. It's just unfortunate that the airports around us developed before we did.

Dean Headley

The second half speaks for itself. We put too much pressure on our guards.

Kurt Melton

In the second half we were really aggressive. We contested every shot, boxed out and we made plays and executed from the field, so that was the difference.

Vince Oliver

I thought we executed well and especially the first half.

Bob Sapp

The East thought they were going to come out and win this game easily, but we clamped down on them defensively in the second half and we played with a lot of inspiration.

Chase Budinger

Do not make best friends with a melancholy sad soul. They always are heavily loaded, and you must bear half.

Francois Fenelon

We were very tentative [in the first half]. We were afraid of going to the ball.

Laura Paro

We shot it exceptionally well the first half. We made some 3-pointers off the break and kind of got the game going our way.

Jim Stafford

Will's been sick and I'm a little concerned about him. I put him in during the second half, and he was only out there for 30-45 seconds and asked to come out.

Doc Sadler

I thought the kids did some good things. I really thought they executed great in the first half. This is a good win. To get them twice, to get them at their place, that's just a really good win.

Jesse Lee Bennett

This is probably the second-most devastating loss of my career. We should have won this one and we let it get away. We had 21 turnovers and most of those came in the second half.

Carolyn Wright

We had more mistake in that first half than we did all season.

Steve Kuplicki

A fault confessed is half redressed.

Polish Proverb

We never gave up. They punched us in the mouth in the first half. We punched them back.

Mike Jensen

That might have been the worst half of basketball we've played.

Jason Floetke

We just didn't fight nearly as hard in the second half.

Jeff Stuart

There's not enough skilled labor in this town to build even half of what has been proposed.

Richard Lee

More than half were no longer advertising the sale of these records.

Lydia Parnes

Don't be condescending to unskilled labor. Try it for a half a day first.

Brooks Atkinson

We did some things better (Friday). We just couldn't seal the deal. In the second half, they changed some things that we had trouble with.

Bryan Kramer

That sliced off about a half a percentage point in growth.

Jay Bryson

In the first half we capitalized on our chances, in the second half we didn't and we need to work on that.

Vance Gibson

We missed the front end of two 1-and-1 in the second quarter, too. It could have been a tie score at the half.

Greg Bonczkowski

In the second half, we were able to shut down their post game, and cause havoc on defense.

Kristi Snider

In the first half, they couldn't get it together, but I think that changed in the second half. We didn't feel as overwhelmed.

Sally Starr

He's an excellent player. He's so big. He kept knocking them down in the first half.

Charlie Ereaux

The first half was quite even, but it was a case of how many we were going to score in the second half.

Derek Johnston

We could have had 50 points in the first half.

Joseph Garcia

It's great to win and I think we did a pretty good job, especially in the second half. We were being so focused and we didn't let them score at all.

Andrei Kirilenko

He got half of what he asked for. It sets no legal precedent.

Martin Feldman

Slow stuff is not our style. That 21-18 first half should be a good first quarter for us, not a first half.

Marquis Navarre

We came out and did a real good job in the second half.

Pat Foley

We executed better in the second half, and that's what we spent halftime talking about.

Maura Mchugh

That was the game. . The game was really decided from about the 5:50 mark until the end of the first half. That was the defining moment.

Dean Keener

How you respond to the challenge in the second half will determine what you become after the game, whether you are a winner or a loser.

Louis Camuti

If we were to leave that out we'd only be doing half our job.

Rep. David Hogue

When we were down like that in the first half, I had four kids in from the bench, and pretty much what those kids do is play defense.

Chuck Crummie

Football is all about scoring goals, but we didn't take our chances after playing a very good first half.

Morten Olsen

The first half was like a chess match, and then things really opened up. Our defense came of age today, and we did a great job finishing the game.

Jim Berkman

It was a dogfight the whole way. Hussey really stepped up in the second half for us.

John Caverly

They did a good job of making adjustments in the second half. They doubled Amanda and prevented her from getting any good looks at the basket or making any drives to the basket.

Fred Thacher

The guys are determined to put the first half behind them and are playing up to their capabilities in the second half.

Dave Clark

It covered roughly half the costs of mounting the exhibit.

Bill Dewalt

It was perfect timing, right before the half, ... and it got us back in the game.

Roger Mueller

Defensively we played better in the second half. We did a nice job of taking away what they had in the first half.

Rob Gray

We were able to contain an avalanche in the second half.

Reinaldo Rueda

We had a lot of turnovers (11 in the first half) and cold shooting (5-for-27 in the first half), and those are two things you can't let happen to you to start a game.

Chris Copeland

The government won't be able to meet its 5.3 percent growth target. We would be happy if we could duplicate what we have achieved in the first half.

Jose Vistan

We can pass it in the first half of the year. Our basis of support is strong again and we're not facing defeats anymore.

Arlindo Chinaglia

We did all right for the first half and played pretty well, but couldn't sustain it.

Darin Lee

Two half-truths do not make a truth, and two half-cultures do not make a culture.

Arthur Koestler

And 100 calories is not a major caloric excess, ... It's a piece of bread; it's half an extra bowl of cereal; it's an extra cookie; it's a controllable amount of food.

William Dietz

We had an incredible first half. We were up by 10 points.

Tracy Adams

We almost doubled the amount of poker books we had in the past year and a half.

Howard Schwartz

Our defense was the key in the first half. We didn't let any single one of their players get hot and take over the game.

Kelly Mathews

We created very little in the first half but were in the ascendancy after the break - although they did always look dangerous on the break.

Simon Delahunty

What a difference she makes for their team. She can do so many things with the ball. It makes it a lot harder to defend them at half court.

Tom Megyesi

I think more than half were my family.

Chris Porter

Communication with him snapped one and a half years ago and I do not know anything about him as I live away from my family.

Jahangir Alam

We lost the game in the first half I thought. We didn't have the poise and the confidence in the first half we had in the second half.

Watson Brown

We had to wake up. We're too lackadaisical in the first half. We had to win this game.

Ravi Moss

I thought really at half-time they had the momentum swinging in their direction.... It easily could have been 21-21 at half-time.

Joe Labuda

We've obviously played a hundred times better than we did in the first half.

Corey Macdonald

We've got a big number of topics to be addressed. Most of that has to be done in the first half of this year.

Pascal Lamy

I was surprised by how low the score was especially in the first half, but I felt it played into our hands. Our girls played man-to-man defense as well as it can be played.

Greg Stake

We had a good first half and still were in the game after three quarters. We couldn't get any closer in the fourth quarter, though.

Ray Liberatore

It's a little bit disheartening that here we have the biggest (first) prize in the (golf) world and half the guys don't turn up.

Michael Campbell

You give No. 18 (Thompson) a half an inch and she's going to score.

Kevin Cassidy

I put half and half and it ran real well. I shouldn't probably recommend it, because I don't know, I haven't run that much of it.

Dick Smith

I said I _liked_ being half-educated; you were so much more _surprised_at everything when you were ignorant.

Gerald Durrell

I wasn't happy with our defense. We were asleep (in the first half), then we were awake (in the third quarter), then we fell asleep again.

Tom Hanks

We believe we'll have a very strong second-half.

Greg Clarke

They fed off our mistakes in the first half, and all credit to them for the way they dug it out in the second half.

Adrian Foster

They're a team that does a great job crashing the offensive glass, and you have to block them out. I thought we did a better job of it in the second half.

Tracey Stellato

I thought we moved much better in the first half. We did a good job of perimeter shooting in the first half.

Mike Hultz

Our execution was terrible. If our power-play capitalizes on half our chances, we're in a one-goal game.

Tracey Kelusky

We already put aside $1 million for the well, but between the time we allotted for that and now construction costs have gone up exponentially, so we've asked for another half a million for the project.

Bob Patterson

You are waiting on someone who isn't coming. Half the National Guard is in Iraq.

Gene Taylor

He's really done a good job of taking are of the basketball for us during the second half of the season.

Jon Hampton

We were very good in the second half and moved the ball really well. It was an excellent performance.

Simon Delahunty

You cannot compile a wit out of two half-wits.

Joe Orton

We've had people from as far away as Ontario. They've driven two-and-a-half hours from Indiana.

Bill Janitz

I had a half-dozen cigarettes going in ashtrays all over the house and on the patio.

Glady Carrillo

It's sentiment and business. Half and half.

Haim Saban

We got a little spaced out (in the second half), and that allowed him to get a few more touches.

Gray Harrison

We played much better defense in the second half.

Donnie Madzia

We played him before and we did a very good job. We just didn't execute. We had an awful first half.

Dan Sylvester

For the cost of roughly two and a half martinis, you can have access to the entire archives.

Martin Nisenholtz

The first-half turnovers killed us. We were not disciplined with the ball.

Lana Tomlin

If you can finish in the top half, you have a chance to win the whole thing. We have a chance to do that.

Royce Waltman

We came into the second half fired up, but when you can't take that first wave it kind of gets to you.

Brian Randle

Kevin has got one and a half seasons to go so we are not silly enough to sit back and say that we are not going to do anything.

John Wardle

Things are going very good so far. We got our potatoes in, and they're close to emerging. Our oats are up, and we're about half done with the corn.

John Mchugh

Our kids did a good job in the first half. They kept their composure at the end - we're learning how to win.

Greg Brochetti

Obviously, that's how important I thought it was to get a basket right there at the end of the half.

Barry Hinson

I thought D.C. played pretty good in the first half.

Don Grant

We did a good job in the first half of stopping their transition.

Matt Hampleman

We did not play well in the second half at all. Just can't afford to do that against Malaysia.

Saeed Khan

Chrisman came out and took our guards out of the game in the first half. They had some big guys inside and we just did not match up with them very well.

Wardie Sain

It's going to be difficult. I've known them and their families for half of their lives. I don't have a bad thing to say about them. That's the only thing I'm not looking forward to-their last game.

Pat Cassidy

At the end of the day your fly-half dictates how you play. Charlie's making every call in attack.

Andy Goode

It's catching on around here. We haven't had any problems. Of course, I'm only a year and a half into it.

Jonathan Martin

Caitlin Adair had our one shot on their goal. In the first half, the water really affected us. We didn't expect that much rain.

Roque Mireles

We didn't play with the same drive we did in the first half. Our front on defense was standing and pushed around.

Mike Hathaway

Give them credit, they played very good defense the first half, and then we saw some things we though would be effective against them. It was a great gut check at that point.

Butch Pedersen

I can see us going up to half.

Steve Bush

I can't believe they stopped them five times inside the 30 after the turnovers in the first half. They won the game for us.

Kyle Miller

We did a good job defensively. In the first half, we were reaching. In the second half, we stopped that stuff and got a little bit better.

Pat Brennan

He did a good job on him in the second half, and that was key.

Scott Wirth

We played a strong first half. We had a balanced offense and moved the ball well.

Chris Tibbits

Unfortunately, the penalties and the dropped balls were our biggest downfall of the first half.

Steve Mckinney

I think the classrooms suffer with half-time teachers.

Doylene Fuqua

In the second half we had a lot more energy and did a much better job on the boards. We had just dug ourselves too deep of a hole in the first half.

Sam Taylor

It will be about half that going into drilling the wells and about half going into the facilities.

Norm Miller

Very disappointing, we certainly had the opportunities to put the game away in the first half. We made a lot of line breaks and didn't convert them into five pointers.

Marty Holah

We are looking at the first half of this year. But we have no firm timetable.

Wang Zhaowen

Instead of playing games on one big field, we'll have games playing across the field on one half of it. That way we can have two games going on at the same time, which means we can have more games.

Scott Goslin

In the first half, coach got on us a little because we took some quick shots.

Katie Gearlds

It was very important because I think we lost the rebounding in the first half.

Kamila Vodichkova

It was back and forth in the first half and you never knew how it was going to turn out. We just didn't have it in the second half.

Jody Gravelin

To come out there in the second half and play as bad offensively . . . it's pretty depressing.

Shane Olivea

The only good thing that came out of the first half was the goal. The midfield never connected with the attack, thankfully we corrected that, allowing us to easily win in the second period.

Carlos Alberto Parreira

In the back, it took the electric pole -- split it in half, and threw it on the roof.

Judy Mazulaitis

We need to be more consistent. We've had difficulty coming out strong in the first half.

Dave Woodall

Half the failures in life arise from pulling in one's horse as he is leaping.

August Hare

The person who can be only serious or only cheerful, is but half a man.

Leigh Hunt

We're not getting the breaks. I don't think they had a shot in the first half, and I don't think they had very many in the second half; but the one they do get, it goes in.

Clint Mathis

That was a pretty good exchange for us there. To see that execution is positive. We can build on our effort in the second half.

Jake Gray

I would guess about half of us are here through no fault of our own. Yet they want to treat us like animals in a zoo.

Lee Noble

We had better shot selection in the second half.

Kelli Johnson

They adjusted to what we were getting them on in the first half. That's what good teams do.

Keith Stokes

The first half, we just didn't get out on him. The second half ... I don't know if there was anything we could have done the second half.

Brad Krouse

It was a big win for us and we needed it. Dustin was terrific in the second half and we played much better defensively.

Mardy Collins

But his glass is always half-full, ... He just keeps plugging along.

John Short

I thought we executed our half-court offense very well. Again, guys shared the ball.

Jeff Beers

When I saw the bracket, I thought the top half looked a lot tougher than the bottom. But you have to beat the best to be the best.

Chris Bolt

The boardwalk alone is over a half-million dollars.

Don Buck

If they have an old 8-SEER or 9-SEER unit that's 15 years old, going to a new 13-SEER or 14-SEER unit would almost cut their power bill in half.

Michael Charles

We did exactly what I said not to do in the first half: Get in foul trouble. That takes our whole game away.

Joe Blodgett

Our capsule is half the size and one-fourth the mass of Genesis.

Donald Brownlee

The people that are over in the combat theaters are about half from the Reserve components.

Jim Nicholson

And it takes two and half hours to do it. There's no express bus.

Dina Campeau

We said, 'New half, new game. Let's pick it back up', and I think we did.

Taylor Cassidy

It took us a day and a half just to get gas.

Patrick Major

They ended the half with that run and it hurt us.

Chris Kirkby

Don't give up at halftime. Concentrate on winning the second half.

Bear Bryant

We just have to play 20 minutes and follow it up with another 20 minutes in the second half.

Mel Thomas

We never had a chance to follow through on our game plan. Highland forced us into the same errors in the second half as the first.

Terrell Baldwin

We won our first district title back in 1993 on a half-court shot, and I thought it was going to happen again.

Tom Catanzarite

The first half, it was tough just to be here. It was no fun.

Julio Lugo

I think everybody's extremely happy with our performance (on defense) in the second half.

Philip Dean

If they do get it into production before the end of the year they could get a good half of production in 2006-07.

Rob Clifford

Two and a half years on, we must begin to bring this occupation to an end.

Sir Menzies Campbell

Our game plan was to sag back inside and let them shoot the 3. And they didn't shoot it well at all in the first half. In the second half, they finally got hot.

Jeff Knoy

We put up a good fight in the first half, but their size really gave us fits in the second half. They got the ball inside and rebounded well.

Bob Curtis

I'm sure half [the players] will say it's the coach's decision ...

Marcellus Wiley

From 10 to 5:30, it's about seven-and-a-half hours. It's very sad; very sad.

Teri Barbera

We had a lot of confidence we could make them miss shots. But the first half, they absolutely killed us on the boards.

Matt Hixenbaugh
