There are penalties all game long. It's a lot faster game, if that's what the league wanted to do.

Jiri Fischer

We use the Bonds fields for our Farm League division with 24 teams.

Lucinda Ferguson

They are one of the top teams in the league and they showed it in the second half.

Tim Barrett

For being as big as he is he's pretty quick, ... He's one of the top tackles in the league. You're not going to dominate him.

Adrian Klemm

We were in the same apartment complex and on the same Little League football squad, and we used to hoop every day at the A.D. Lewis Community Center.

Daphne Brown

We're probably the only team in the league that has had the same 10 guys all season.

Rob Ridnour

It's not easy to win a league title any year, let alone three in a row.

Jeff Brenning

That's the great thing about our league; anyone can win on any given night. You never know.

Nikki Tartaglia

[Fellowship and fun is what this league is all about.] I just enjoy the fellowship, ... it's a fun-loving group.

Bill Moss

We're not real happy about not defending a league title this year,? said head coach Glenn Nuss.

Blue Devils

I can't thank enough what the league and the University of Denver has given me.

Matt Carle

The Blazers have clearly established themselves as the league leaders in grievances.

Dan Wasserman

I can't explain it. I'm disappointed we didn't win more league games. We were in those games, we just couldn't get the win.

Jim Crawford

Losing Joe is not what you want to have happen heading into such a huge league game.

Rodney Lloyd

It felt kind of like the Developmental League out there.

Will Bynum

I think it's going to be important because when you have guys that have been in the league 8 to 10 years, they have seen everything.

Lew Ford

I think I'm leading the league in walkoff bunts, ... It's nice to get a win any way you can. If it's a walkoff bunt, that's fine with me.

Nick Punto

Once we get those guys healthy, we can make plans. Until they're healthy and ready to compete in a Major League game, we can't do much. We've got to go with the five we have now.

Spin Williams

It wasn't the fact he didn't want to come to the Chargers. It was the fact he was, like, above the league.

Quentin Jammer

I got in contact with a guy named Jack Welch in Marshall, and he put us in the league.

Jerry Morgan

In this league, you've got to run to win, but you've got to throw to score.

Steve Mckinney

We're going to be in a learning process. We're going to learn a tremendous amount and we'll make changes that allow us to keep the integrity of the league.

Ted Hellard

That stuff's expensive. Not a lot of guys in this league are willing to put that money out, and that's just one cycle.

Glenn Murray

We needed someone on the Board with rugby league expertise to assist with our bid for a Super League franchise in 2009.

Bill Midgley

It was not accepted nearly as widely as a sport, particularly not accepted as a big-league sport.

Max Muhleman

Against Brown, we know what's on the line: the Ivy League title.

Lauren Vance

Kyle and I are loving it here, and it feels like we belong, ... In this league you never know when you'll be staring the enemy in the face -- and he's no longer the enemy.

Jason Sehorn

It has given the lads great confidence but we are not losing sight of how difficult this league is going to be.

Adrian Fitzpatrick

No one is going to go undefeated in this league. If we win our next game, we still can control our own destiny.

Kelvin Garnett

I am sure the rest of the league is not giving up and it is definitely not cut and dried yet.

Frank Lampard

We were struggling the first time through the league.

John Haddan

The reason you can be confident is because our league is so good.

Mark Turgeon

One of our goals is to win the league. We're going in the right direction.

Carl Rittenour

When we get on we are going to run a little and not sit back and play power ball with the rest of the league.

Mike Reagan

I think everywhere you go in this league, you're going to find clowns. We just have a lot more clowns here.

Antowain Smith

Casey is one of those guys that has a lot of ability but has been struggling. He probably came into this game hitting .200. He put that ball in play against one of the best pitchers in this league, and that was the play of the game.

Jason Castro

But if we play mistake-free and focus on special teams, I hope things will go our way. Anything can happen in this league.

Kevin Ryan

It is a nice accomplishment to go undefeated in the league.

Bob Donovan

It is one of the best in the Premier League.

Stephane Henchoz

In a summer league game I had to guard him. He went for 43.

Tim Morris

Although we have not been down this road before, we all know that there is big influx of baseball fans who arrive around the first of March with the express mission of attending games for Cactus League.

Laurel Prieb

[But Alex Padilla, incoming league president and prominent Los Angeles Democrat, said] the governor is way off. ... won't know where the blue pencil will hit the hardest.

Alex Padilla

He's a Boston kid and well-respected in the Boston area and he was a good player in this league.

Bill Herrion

It's a horse - vocally, it's quite demanding - but it's not out of their league.

Brad Holmes

(Jimenez) and Santo, they're young kids competing in a pretty good league at their age. They have to expect some ups and downs. If it keeps going down, you have to adjust.

Mike Couchee

That would benefit us, and our league, in particular.

Bill Rowe

We had a nice win Saturday. We're looking forward to getting back into league.

Maria Lefler

As long as it does not clash with the Pacific league, we should be all right with it.

Ratu Timoci Tavanavanua

There is going to be a very good team in our league that doesn't make the playoffs.

Mike Bosco

After a little more success in the big-league level, I'm gaining confidence.

Jon Rauch

Jason Schmidt just has our number. He's one of the best pitchers in the league and he's just dominating against us.

Luis Gonzalez

I just feel I'm not flashy. As long as the guys around the league respect me, the coaches respect me. As far as the fans, I hope they see at least a good player.

Aaron Schobel

We aren't deep but we've been getting better. This is a very strong league overall. Sprague and McNary are the favorites but everyone is capable.

Stephanie Carroll

There are only 30 jobs in the league. It will be a privilege to be considered for any of the jobs. I'm interested in them all.

Marc Crawford

In this league, you have to bring it every night. You have to give some credit to Seaside. They came up big when it mattered most.

Greg Daniels

They (WB) were probably playing, coming in, as well as anybody in the league. Our kids, we talked about it. This was going to be a very difficult game. So we were prepared for a very difficult game.

Robby Howard

We know we can play with anybody in the league. We definitely know right now that we can play with anybody in the conference or the country.

Michael Bertram

Personally, I'd rather win a league title than get to the playoffs.

John Radcliff

Going undefeated in the City League, that doesn't happen very often. I've got to tip my hat to my kids. That's an outstanding feat.

Joe Suboticki

We?re expecting Greg to have a spectacular fall and looking forward to going against our two county and Catholic League rivals, Bonner and Carroll.

Tom Kennedy

They were the hottest team in the league over the last 10 games last year. That's the challenge. They have a lot of explosive weapons.

Anthony Mcfarland

It's unbelievably high. All five starters are in the top 10 in the league in free-throw percentage.

Garrick Phillips

It'll be one of the biggest games these girls have ever played in. As good as we've been the past couple of years they've never won a league championship in any sport.

Doug Griffin

They came in here and absolutely lit it up. Had we won that game, we probably would have the league title wrapped up. Now we have to take care of business and see what happens (this week).

Ryan Sanchez

I think our talent is as good as anybody's in the league.

John Chaney

I think there will be a spark in attendance from fans that are glad it's going back there. It seems like it's best for the league.

Dave Rice

Some firms will not be able to compete with the salary hikes of the top-tier firms. We will see which firms are really in the premier league and which ones just think that they are.

Ward Bower

Sam has made it clear to me he's not interested in managing a Premier League club at any of the current vacancies.

Phil Gartside

It's a rivalry from the old Westside League.

Bob Hall

The girls are really excited and they want to go all the way. Their confidence is built up because of the league win, and they are in good spot mentally. They know what to expect.

Amy Litteral

Jodie Foster is an eminent Ivy League graduate who has achieved tremendous success and influence in the powerful entertainment industry.

Amy Gutmann

I feel as good as I?ve ever felt, as good as I felt in Little League or middle school.

David Knox

[The Premier League] has taken a very careful approach to the regulators.

Andrew Morris

Every team knows that you can't turn the ball over against Penn. Yet every team in our league does it.

Joe Jones

When I came into the league, I was just looking to find my niche, to find where I could fit in and be productive and help my team.

David West

I never hit a walk-off home run in my whole life. Not in my whole life. Not even in Little League.

Bubba Crosby

He'll be 100 percent for instructional league. That's going to be his year. It's unfortunate. He basically lost a year.

Oneri Fleita

People have been overlooking the City League like crazy for years. It's good that we got here. Hopefully we can win it.

Dejuan Blair

Eagle is one of the strongest teams in the league. We've skated with them, but we haven't found the net often enough.

Mark Bangs

We are dominated by older skiers. We need to keep our focus to win the league championship in back-to-back seasons.

Stephen Bell

This league is the toughest league, as far as I'm concerned, in all the CCS. All up and down, there's not an easy team.

Roland Hedgpeth

They're in pole position, i.e. in 3rd position, for the Champions League.

Mark Lawrenson

April's always a crucial part of our season. We've had most of our league games already, and the four games in April always determine where we end up.

Jon Birsner

For what Angie does, she's probably the best in the league. If coaches didn't prepare for her they were doing something wrong.

Craig Mortensen

Athletes make plays and they made plays. They are a very, very good football team. They're too good for our league.

John Galante

She (Sharon) is never short of advice and not all of it is about rugby league.

Craig Hodges

The second half of league, we did much better than the first.

Don Crouse

We definitely thought we'd do a lot better in the league. But we can still do big things in the tournament.

Jared Butler

We don't have any troubles here. I don't know what goes on around the league, but I talked to a few players and by and large I think this is false information.

Bryan Smith

I don't know who would have doubted him, but I know we never did. We see him every day in practice. We know how competitive he is and we know he could probably be a starter for almost any other team in the league.

Shea Weber

You never know, this is the toughest league in lacrosse. There aren't any breathers.

Glenn Thiel

If you asked most of the Leicester boys, they wouldn't be 100% happy with the system in terms of playing a one-off game to decide the league.

Ben Kay

My gut is that there's a lack of fan interest around the league right now.

Matt Powell

"The only thing Earl (Weaver) knows about big-league pitching is that he couldn't hit it.

Jim Palmer

To get where I want to go, which is a big-league team, this is better. It gets me back into New York.

Tommy John

Only four of the Canadian players were in the top 30 in NHL (North America Hockey League) scoring. They just couldn't score goals.

Gord Miller

I explored some other options around the league but felt most comfortable with the direction this team is headed in.

Trey Teague

He wants to play in the league. And he's the best overage goaltender available.

Stan Butler

It's a good team from a great league. It's a win we wanted to get and we let it get away. ... Those are the kind of teams you have to beat to get over the hump. We had a chance.

Jeff Schulkens

I just scratch my head. I enjoy the fact that Toledo gets a major league coaching staff.

Joe Napoli

He has three young children and although he's making good money for this league, it's probably not enough.

Laurie Calloway

I think he's going to be a good quarterback in this league, and I think he's expecting that, too.

Muhsin Muhammad

It's got league implications big-time. We have to take care of business.

Jeff Brenning

This one is sort of celebrating the heritage of Negro League baseball.

Paul Melvin

If it weren't pertaining to my charity, I probably would have cared less and just said he was a jerk. But when there is a chance for me to do something or for his signature to do something for charity, I won't stand for that. It's ironic that his dad (former big-league star Bobby Bonds) died of cancer too.

Ron Kittle

There should be a new way to record standings in this league, one column for wins, one for losses, and one for gifts.

Gene Mauch

They're (Montana) no doubt the class of the league. For us, it's a home game. In any league race, you have to do well at home and sneak what you can on the road.

Mike Adras

Anna was the leading scorer in the league that year.

Dean Bjorlin

He just competes. There are guys in this league with better stuff and more experience, but Mike Peck just battles. He has been good enough to put us in first place.

Jason Castro

We are very disappointed to learn this news. But at the direction of Major League Baseball, and, following its rules, we are not able to comment further.

Tim Hevly

It was awesome to watch a guy come up here in his major-league debut and do what he did.

Jack Wilson

We've always known that we can play with some of the best teams in the league and score.

Josh Sims

He's got some pretty good skills. And he knows where to go. He's played in the Czech League. He understands the game.

Marco Sturm

Anyone who has the presence he has will be a huge asset to our team and our league.

Ronny Thompson

We accomplished something last year we hadn't done in a long time. That was a great first step. Our first goal this year is to win the league.

Rocky Hubbard

Right up there near the top. I'd compare those guys to any two in the league.

Ted Cottrell

I'm not sure if Denver played Cleveland in the finals, it would be the same phenomena as when they both came into the league.

Neil Schwartz

It's a rough league. You have to keep your heads in it and just play your game. We have to work as a team to get through it.

Geary Claxton

We don't dwell on it. Our goal first is to always win the West Yosemite League championship.

Greg Cox

We were putting a lot into this game to win the league, because it is something that this program hasn't since 1995 and we wanted it this season.

Gary Lindgren

Any form of hazing must be eradicated from our league. I feel comfortable in stating that the activity which occurred on the Spitfires bus is not common and will never be tolerated.

David Branch

It gives us a chance to get all the kids playing so we know what we have and how we'll respond going into league play.

Rob Schimmoeller

All in all we did some good things, but we didn't put it together. My goal is to learn from our mistakes and put it together by April for better league play.

Leslie King

To be honest, I've never had that feeling in this league. That's a feeling left for the fast guys. It was different.

Steve Heiden

If Ryan doesn't make all-league, there's something wrong, ... He puts everything into every play.

Chris Morgan

I'm just excited to see all the new people that have come out here to play ball. It's nice to see all the happy faces of the people excited about what we did for the league.

Alex Miller

I used to go drink to drown my sorrows and I used to go drink to celebrate. It's not really a way to be a big league player.

Rich Gedman

One thing that I have found a little harder in the league than college is just being able to get shots, ... That's probably the biggest adjustment. You have to take shots when you get them.

David West

They (the Kings) are the benchmark for the league, that's something we respect and admire and hope we can duplicate.

Al Westover

Bottom line in this league is you've got to make shots, especially in the fourth quarter.

Wally Szczerbiak

It's not fair to have a kid who has played in Double-A, Triple-A ball competing against a guy who was a star in Japan. The Japanese guys are good. It's a valid league.

Paul Hagen

It was a great game. It didn't matter for the league standings, but it's a nice rivalry we have with those guys -- capacity crowd, intense environment.

Scott Merzoian

It really mattered because it was a league game.

Jake Perkins

This means that we'll, if we win the final two league games, at least finish tied for the lead in our league (WAHA).

Brian Holt

I'm not concerned; I think he's still one of the best goaltenders in the league.

Nate Leaman

They're paying for that service with him because that's all he does but he does it really well. He may be the best in the league.

Joe Paopao

They (Island Bay) will give us a good indication of what is required to be competitive in this particular league. If we can get a win over them, or even go close to it, it'll be a big boost to the team.

Phil Keinzley

It would be cool to continue to work with him. He's a great coach, and he's helped me stay in the league the last four years.

Craig Nall

In this league, when you win, you better go out to eat, enjoy yourself and be happy because you don't know when the next one is coming.

Keith Dambrot

To have a goalie that you know is proven and is going to do as good a job as anyone in the league doesn't just help keep pucks out of the net, it changes the attitude of the team.

Curtis Brown

We can't let up. We can beat anybody in our league, but anybody in our league can beat us. Obviously, we have to be on top of our game.

Kenton Comstock

It's a team game. Nobody in this league wins with one player.

John Petersen

I kept having to remind the guys that I had scored goals in this league before, ... They all thought it was the biggest deal in the world for me.

Ben Olsen

They used to kick us around when we first went into the league. It means a lot to my kids.

Brent Lewis

There's a lot more information out there, so many Web sites with so much information. The idiot of a fantasy-football group can win the league. But it's very rare when the idiot can win fantasy baseball.

Peter Schoenke

Smith continues to be the most incredible goalie in the league.

David O'donnell

We lacked heart, effort and passion, which really concerns me considering this was a huge league game for us and we did not show up wanting to win.

Jay Staggs

We'd certainly love to have that at a major-league ballpark. Has that been discussed yet? No. Will that be part of it? Absolutely.

Dave Mccarthy

He emerged as an administrator to be reckoned with, a big-league administrator who embraced that role.

Thomas Baker

We knew we were better than most teams in the league. We knew we couldn't get first, but we had to get second.

Andrew Vonderhaar

Nine losses in that league is comparable to seven in ours.

Mike Fritch

If you're not good enough to go to the league, then you should go to college and get your degree and have something to fall back on.

Tommie Patterson

He's playing like he's been in the league for a dozen seasons.

Howie Long

The one thing he hadn't shown yet was the ability to hit for power. I felt that he would hit for power here, because the league he was in is kind of a pitcher's league, with wood bats and big ballparks.

Gary Henderson

One thing I pride myself on his how hard our defense plays and how bad the players want to be the best in the league.

Jerry Gray

It's a great accomplishment for the league. But really, it's not completely surprising if you go back and look at how strong the conference has been all season.

Dick Baddour

Anybody in this league can beat anybody. You look around at the box scores and you can see that. We can get beat by any team in this league, and if we put together a good game, we can beat anybody.

Tyler Norrick

We've got a good competitive league. Getting that many to district shows the strength of our wrestling in the Central District.

Doug Short

We've proven that certainly we can compete with the best teams in the league. Through and through, I thought we played a very good game.

Brian Sutherby

We had the chance to win. It just was not a complete game for us. And in this league, if you don't put together a complete game, any team can beat any other team on any given night.

Dan Pinkerton

You can get beaten by any team on any night. The worst team in the league can beat you if you don't bring your A-game.

Terrence Roberts

We are aiming high in the Champions League and you will see a different team on Tuesday.

Oliver Kahn

I don't think anyone would really want to play in a minor league.

Spencer Hawes

There's so much parity in this league. There's no way you can pick who is going to be the winner.

Lorenzo Romar

It might be too early to tell, but I do think our non-league (games) will be better than last year.

Todd Casebier

We allowed two goals each half and I wasn't to happy about that. We weren't as sharp as we should be in our first league game.

Dave Reel

That would be something -- two backs rushing for over 1,000 yards. Has it ever been done in this league?

Corey Holmes

We're not in that league yet. No more talk about turning the corner.

Guy Morriss

We're 1-0 in league now and shooting for 10-0. We're looking to turn some heads.

Brad Baughan

The table is set now. We've felt like if we could win our last three games we'd have a chance to take league.

Scott Browne

We did our job by winning our game. What are you going to do? They fought back. They're the hottest team in the league and they showed they could fight to the end. They deserve it and now we've got to focus on Buffalo.

Simon Gagne

They got hot two years ago. They were the best team in the league for the last, I think, half of the year.

Shean Donovan

It's kind of a black eye, ... because in this league you're only as good as your last punt. So I'm really, really fortunate for this opportunity.

Derrick Frost

We're shooting for major league game activity later this month.

Lonnie Soloff

That's the goal and it's what the league wants. The league's willing to kick in to help get things going.

Bruce Urban

There's not one guy in this league who can shut him down all by himself. There really isn't. You really have to plan well against him because he's a weapon.

Anthony Becht

They're the No. 1 rebounding team in the league. It's tough to compete with that.

Joe Harge

We can't afford another slip up. No one will win this league with three losses.

Ray Corbett

We spotted them a two-goal lead, ... To win in this league, you've got to play for 60 minutes. We've got to find a way to correct that.

Matthew Barnaby

It's a big game in the league because I think the first goal for both teams is to win the league. The winner of this game is going to have a leg up on that shot.

Jim Gonder

The majority of people in this league are totally new to the sport.

Becky Reitmeyer

They are the team everyone in the league shoots for. They are the cream of the crop and then everyone else battles to stay with them.

Shaun Hart

People have asked us the most about adding a Sunday night league.

Steve Anthony

I knew it was far from over when we got that six-point lead. Four full quarters, that?s what it takes in this league.

Jen Kurelja

The league has shown a lot of advancement and individually the players are growing and the league is growing with it.

Christian Gomez

This is a decisive moment, especially in the Champions League because if you don't get to the final, everything else you've done throughout the year doesn't count for anything.

Victor Valdes

We basically, like most teams in this league, do center by committee. We needed another committee member.

Rick Sund

We play in one of the toughest leagues in San Diego. You just don't get a breather in this league.

Bryan Brockett

I think Jason Smith is the best captain in the league by far.

Michael Peca

He was the man of the series when New Zealand met Malaysia recently and Leo should be someone who can make an impact in the A-League.

Mich D'avray

I'm definitely honoured to be the No. 1 ticket-holder. I've followed the league since I was a kid and I've got some close friends playing in the NBL.

Andrew Bogut

They're going to blow out most teams in the league. They now know they are not going to blow us out this year.

Jeff Medeiros

I'm very disappointed. I'm hoping we didn't peak too early. I guess we'll find out in the league meet.

Tim Busen

We just wanted to prove to them that we should have been league champs. We deserved this win.

Lauren Lucido

It was a really good feeling to be selected by everyone in the league. It's a great achievement for myself and I'm really happy I made the team.

Ashley Young

Just because he's tied for the league lead, that doesn't mean you can't run on him. So what are you going to do? He made a good throw. You gave to give credit to him.

Manny Acta

I'm feeling comfortable now. At the beginning of the season, I was just excited and was going on a lot of energy. But it slows down and you get into a rhythm. I know I can play in this league.

Brad Boyes

If I had done everything I was supposed to, I'd be leading the league in homers, have the highest batting average, have given $100,000 to the Cancer Fund and be married to Marie Osmond.

Catfish Hunter

You've got to mix things up, especially with the short kicking game from league. I'm not going to overplay my hand but it's got something to offer.

Berrick Barnes

They're just a really good team. They hit the ball, lay great defense and they have outstanding pitchers. They are the elite of the league.

Eric Nieslanik
