[The Gators] always play us tough. I don't expect them to lay back. They have a little momentum and they're fired up.

Warren Jones

He has become the icon, more so than Big Bird. Let's capitalize on the momentum.

Bob Caruso

They had 8,000 screaming fans. That's a pretty big momentum factor, there's not much you can do to contradict that.

Melanie Boeglin

There is still a lot of momentum in the market and we see no evidence of demand slowing down in the near future.

Brand Pretorius

I hope we can take this momentum into Tuesday night and get us a win.

Warren Lawrence

I feel really good about the momentum and the direction of the campaign.

Mark Herring

Once he made those buckets, that kind of gave them momentum and energy. Their team was kind of fired up after that.

Mario West

We can finish as high as seventh or eighth and then we would be playing either Miami or N.C. State. If we can build on some of the things we've done well the last couple of games and get some momentum going for the ACC tournament, then we will feel confident about our chances.

Jeff House

She pitched well and showed a lot of control. She had great defense behind her and that gave us a lot of momentum.

Deb Smith

They were creeping back, but that gave us a little momentum.

Carrie Myers

They are also reasonable value, and earnings momentum is holding up better than expected.

Tony Dolphin

You certainly want to come out and play well and go into districts with that momentum.

Dennis Braun

Techs are back with a big vengeance. People continue to chase momentum.

Brian Conroy

They got the momentum, and when they did we didn't take care of the ball. This is our third district title in a row. We won with only one senior (Marsh), so we're happy.

Don Rice

It was probably the first time I ever did that. I don't think it was a travel, either. It was real exciting. It gave us some momentum.

Nick Fruendt

We struggled to cut their lead to three, then (Coakley) hit some threes and that killed our momentum.

Gordon Gibbons

I didn't want us to lose the momentum. I do not think our crowd was going to let us.

Ray Botello

That was a big momentum switch for us. We hadn't been getting any good bounces even though we were playing well. The Leitch goal was a good bounce and you need to have those if you're going to win games.

Rand Pecknold

This was a big lift for us. We needed it before we play L.C. on Wednesday. It will give us momentum going into the game.

Danny Jeftich

Everyone was telling me that I pretty much had to pin him to give us back the momentum. I was pretty intense. I was trying to get everyone pumped up.

Ryan Tomei

Those turnovers are really huge for us and we're really proud of ourselves as a secondary and linebackers to try to intercept the ball, get momentum and get things going.

Chris Harrell

I told them that they had to take control of the first two minutes of the second half. Mays went into the half with all the momentum and we had to get it back.

Stephanie Dunn

This is a significant bet from a serious source and we will be monitoring the market carefully to see if the gamble gathers momentum.

Simon Clare

I don't think it looks good. I think we had more momentum in the earlier years than we've got now.

Jerry Carroll

They hit those two big 3s - I think it was the only two she made all game - but when they hit those, it changed momentum. Then we turned it over a few times to fuel their fire.

Toby Wynn

They had started to get the momentum, and we had to take it back.

Kareem Carter

She's as composed and graceful and confident as I've seen in any 17 year old. But it's hard to come off that big a win and keep the momentum going. It's so much easier to get there than to maintain that level of success.

Anne Worcester

Our kids learned a good lesson about the game of basketball tonight. Basketball is all about momentum. We had it for most of the first half and then we let it go and West took it from us. We let them get back into the game.

Mark Ritter

There was definitely a momentum shift. But we've been down before. We were down 18-7 in the first round of the playoffs, so I know we can come back from four points down.

Shamel Bratton

I would not waste my life in friction when it could be turned into momentum.

Frances E. Willard

If Merck can win on those, then they can really say they've got some momentum on their side.

David Stahl

When it starts to move it will make a lot of noise and it will move and have a lot of momentum and take anything in its way out.

Dick Powell

While gasoline was clearly the main driving force behind the market on Friday, there is little doubt that the Middle East tension also provides some upside momentum for crude.

Lawrence Eagles

We have a lot of momentum right now and we have a lot of confidence. We've been winning with guys missing from the lineup.

Jordan Foreman

At this stage, it appears that the momentum from our accelerated profit improvement effort will continue in the second quarter.

Christopher B. Galvin

It's great to score first. It's momentum builder, it puts them down. That's what high school football is, a game of momentum.

Bryan Hahn

We believe that Japan's premium (price-to-earnings) multiple is justified given the lower level of interest rates and higher earnings momentum we expect.

Kathy Matsui

This is a nomination that was launched with little momentum, and the momentum is decreasing by the day.

Ken Connor

From a participants' standpoint, it really hurt us. We felt we had momentum.

Joe Cappelli

We've had so many games where we just can't seem to finish at the end. Kennedy's press bothered us at the end and they had three consecutive steals that gave them their momentum.

Gene Smith

We had the momentum, but we weren't putting the balls in the goal. I felt with an extra guy out there we would be able to get the game into overtime.

Troy Dayak

As long as you keep up the momentum, keep going and don't take breaks, you'll burn a lot of calories.

Amy Olson

We saw significant growth in our consumer, corporate and investment banking business units last year, and we hope to retain double-digit growth momentum this year.

Morris Li

We fought for 80 minutes. The halftime kind of broke our momentum.

Craig Cusson

We've won four in a row and that gives us some momentum for our district games coming up. I can't complain about that.

Rod Hodgson

Sales growth is very stable, so no bumpy ride there, even though the momentum is a little bit negative.

Vivienne Hsu

If I can just keep playing steady and build on the momentum, anything can happen. I'm hitting enough quality shots. I feel confident.

Mike Weir

After the second set, I felt like I had good momentum going into the third set. But he made adjustments in the third set. He made me play every point.

Scoville Jenkins

They lost what many would consider their most promising candidate, because he is the one with money. I think there is a loss of momentum for the Democrats here.

Bob Loevy

That was a huge swing, those two steals. That was a game-turner. We were hanging right in there and they got the momentum after that. We kept clawing at them, we just could never get there.

John Imlah

The world is wide, and I will not waste my life in friction when it could be turned into momentum.

Frances E. Willard

Obviously we had some momentum at the end of the game. When we scored that goal, I thought we were going to continue that push and maybe get another.

Robert Warzycha

They captured the momentum and we couldn't get it back.

Dick Wettengel

Once again, our defense played well and Dan Ott (the keeper) had a strong game in goal for us. Hopefully, we can carry this momentum with us into the upcoming contests.

Jerry Holtgren

You never want to give a team life - especially a team as good as Dallas. They've got some momentum now, but we've got a chance in the next game to take it away again.

Rob Blake

If Nasdaq got involved, there would be more momentum for a tech market in Europe.

Martin Brooker

Someone said the score was wrong. That kind of stopped the game and there was some confusion and that kind of stopped their momentum.

Dale Reed

The run up to the 2007 full-market opening in Europe will continue to feed consolidation momentum in the EU.

Manfred Wiegand

It's an amazing feeling for the guys to keep this momentum going ... and now it's just up to us to seal it on Wednesday against the Mexicans.

Dwight Yorke

The dollar really needs very strong economic figures to get momentum. I can hardly see such strong data coming out, including TIC data.

Masaki Fukui

It gives a team a lot of confidence. They might feel like they have momentum. You just feel good when you come off playing really well.

Lindsey Harding

You always want to go into March, the most important part of the season, with a lot of momentum, a lot of confidence.

Demarcus Nelson

It definitely has momentum. I'm really impressed by BKB. They really have some great ideas.

Michael Lieberman

When we get a lead, we just seem to feed off it and build the momentum from there. It's so much of a comfort coming back to our own rink, with the crowd we have here.

Wayne Prusky

The effect of the strike will be to short-circuit momentum in the U.S. economy, but we are well positioned to absorb it.

Diane Swonk

It's heartbreaking. That [really] slowed down the drive and the momentum.

Deshawn Wynn

At the end of the day, we are seeing a bit of a softening in forward momentum.

Kathleen Stephansen

They got on track in time for Big Tens, so hopefully we can steal some of their momentum.

Garrett Field

Chrysler had good momentum in 2005 and that will probably continue in 2006.

Mike Chung

It can get pretty loud and pretty crazy (at state). I hope they can build on that momentum and have fun. I want them to have fun most importantly. This definitely is the experience of a lifetime.

Kelly Janda

The momentum [of the China- related stocks] is expected to continue.

Peter So

Gold's momentum is likely to take it to either side of $600, but then a serious correction is likely to unfold.

Peter Grandich

It's mainly a backlash from the powerful momentum of the last half-year.

Seiji Adachi

Cuellar is just grasping for straws. He has to sling mud. He sees the momentum going with Mr. Rodriguez.

Oscar Sanchez

It was frustrating because I thought I had some momentum.

Brian Ching

Continental's flexible growth plan is generating both strong earnings momentum and cash flow.

Larry Kellner

I thought that would be a little momentum shifter. It just wasn't meant to be.

Rick Vanhoy

We are looking for everyone to contribute. Try to keep the momentum going.

Kevin Corbett

We hope to regain momentum.

Lynn Rasic

We really just did the things we needed to do to win. I'm hoping it will build momentum.

Michelle Gardner

Compared with China's trade volume with other countries it may not be a very big figure, but what matters most is the momentum of rapid growth.

Sergei Razov

Our main thing was to come back from San Diego with the same momentum.

Mike Viola

We had them wore down pretty good in the first half, but they got some big plays and the momentum just swung.

Alan Sorensen

We are committed to returning to profitability in the fourth quarter and building on that positive momentum into 2002.

Anne M. Mulcahy

I think that was a big shot to give us a bit of momentum, just to pull us ahead a little bit. It was about time I hit one.

Jami Safrit

We're rounding third base with the wind at our back. It gives us additional momentum.

Rebecca Rimel

They came out in the second half and one of their kids hit a 3 and you could feel the momentum change.

Jeff Dellis

He's only a freshman and for him to go out there and beat someone that had 40-something wins and only three losses that was a big momentum match for us. We were pleased with that.

Todd Skinner

The governor's commitment is a really big thing for momentum. It also launches our major private fundraising drive. We've asked private fundraisers and foundations to wait for this announcement because it's accompanied by conceptual details of the first facility.

John Cronin

I knew Churchill would have momentum. But we needed this game to get ready for the playoffs. We're ready.

Frankie Whitlock

It's always hard to raise those final dollars. We're trying to pick up the momentum.

Brenda Keeler

There's a momentum building across the country... and we intend for every member of Congress to hear our messages from Camp Casey loud and clear.

Nancy Lessin

But 60 days is a hell of a long time in an election. The trick here now is to sustain the momentum that we have achieved.

Arturo Sarukhan

It's good for your confidence and it gives you momentum.

Hugh Godsey

(When) you're making your run (and) momentum is swinging your way, you just have to finish it off. It seems like we didn't cap it off because we couldn't knock down any shots.

Alando Tucker

That was huge. The way things have been going, to pull off a win like we did today, especially with a long road trip ahead of us, it gives us momentum and confidence.

Nick Swisher

The earnings momentum at Kawasaki Kisen and other Japanese shippers has already peaked. It's not good to aggressively invest in the sector at this moment.

Makoto Kikuchi

The issue is whether we will see similar attitudes taken by other Middle Eastern banks. It is a question of momentum.

Monica Fan

That was kind of a turning point. It was one of those momentum changing plays.

Lawrence Hom

We have lost the momentum (for recovery).

Bagus Sudibya

We were playing defense a lot in those two losses. Our defense has sharpened up, our slides are always there and we're riding the momentum.

Alex Williams

I would not want to over-exaggerate (but) ... they represent a degree of momentum. Let's see whether there is the appetite there to really try and move it forward.

Crawford Falconer

I liked running here a lot. I felt like I was generating a lot more momentum on this track. It's too bad I can't come back next year.

Bruce Brown

We've been telling our kids how much momentum shifts during the course of the game.

Chris Neitzel

We really feel that the momentum is with us.

Marc Solomon

The momentum we'll get from these close wins will drive us into next week against the Cats.

Neale Daniher

We knew that Xavier is the best team in the conference or supposedly the best team in the conference. So to beat them on their home floor, it should be huge momentum for this season to try to get something going.

Ian Vouyoukas

It was a beautiful line drive, it just picked up speed and kept going. This gives us great momentum going into (Friday's game) at Milton.

Kathy Smelstor

WE started out slow in the early competitions but we were able to build momentum and we rode very well. We are looking forward to Georgia tomorrow. It will be a big challenge.

Boo Duncan

There is growth, but it isn't great and you can't be confident of momentum going forward.

Michael Dicks

Timing is everything. Hopefully, we'll keep that momentum rolling into the playoffs.

Ben Johnson (baseball Player)

This move to California will allow us to gain significant momentum by being able to take advantage of a favorable environment for funding.

William Caldwell

We just picked up our defensive play and that gave us momentum on offense.

Steve Richardson

I think we came into this game with a lot of momentum. Guys were up even in batting practice. We had a good attitude coming into the game and it carried over.

Brian Ernst

Vanderbilt felt like they had some momentum and we wanted to take that back from them.

Darian Townes

There is phenomenal momentum behind search engine advertising.

Gary Stein

NT has huge momentum [in enterprises]. How far will Linux move into that space? ... I don't know.

Sean Maloney

We had that blocked punt down inside their 30. They ended up getting the first down and that's what sent them down the field. They had the momentum. Again, penalties hurt us.

Stan Skowron

We swam with a lot of heart tonight. Hopefully, we can take some of this momentum we've built up into Friday's events.

Lea Maurer

It really didn't seem like there was much momentum either way.

Joel Pardalis

Eric's win was big. That one kept the momentum going.

Bob Lorence

It felt like we were in control the whole time. You try not to get that feeling too early because you never know. It's such a game of momentum.

Courtney Thompson

All of us are astounded by the momentum of the mutual-fund industry. It's an awesome thing to behold.

David Hale

It's unfortunate I wasn't able to do more with it. I had the momentum there. I was feeling really good. But then she came out just relaxed again after that break. It was nice to have the break, but at the same time, I had the momentum, so I was fine to keep going.

Lisa Raymond

I can't see in what sense it would lend momentum.

Michael Rushford

We want to get that momentum going into the playoffs.

Raheem Brock

I think we've got some interest and I think we've got some momentum but we've got to be sure we do things right. There's no rush to expand this league.

Don Garber

It feels really good. We've had a lot of close loses, and to win a game like this in the league feels great. It's a good way to gain some momentum before the district tournament.

Demetrius Jones

I just threw it up and prayed it would go in, and it went in. It was a big momentum swing for us going into halftime.

Dee Brown

She's our best 3-point shooter and she gave us a big lift in the first half. That late '3' was huge - a momentum-killer for them.

Jeff Curtis

We had more consistency. We started well and kept the momentum up.

Anita Hauser

The bottom line for German growth this year is that recovery momentum is flagging with GDP likely to rise by no more than 0.8 percent in 2005.

Joe Brown and David Brown

We just tried to get the momentum back, which is hard to do, but these girls don't give up. We did have to remind them there were 17 minutes left and they had to go play well.

Mikaela Rehak

We gave them some easy scores, which we said we couldn't afford to do and we never were able to get anything going offensively on the ground or in the air. We never had any momentum in the game.

Jon Heacock

They acquire a kind of a momentum and we have to blunt that. I would like to see the president talk much more about those kinds of stakes because this is a way to explain what we're contending with, what we're fighting.

Dennis Ross

We grabbed the momentum early on with their punt miscue. What I'm proud of the guys for is they never let up, and that's the sign of a good team.

David Comeaux

That was awesome, we knew we had it when we scored that goal. We had momentum.

Brent Cardali

If we win, it's going to give us so much momentum going into the finals and the states. That game is going to be the biggest game of our season so far.

Jacquie Fernandes

If you're coasting, you're either losing momentum or else you're headed downhill.

Joan Welsh

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 regained the momentum lost due to weather delays and losses to Globe and Blue Ridge.

Curtis Johnson

We believe that we are picking up the majority of whatever business Guidant couldn't fulfill because of their recall, and we continue to see good momentum going forward.

Art Collins

Earnings momentum is going to continue to be a key driver. Those companies that are in a good position in the market, that can engineer their own momentum, are going to be in demand.

Jane Coffey

We really played well on the road last year. Maybe it's the hotel food or something, I don't know. Maybe we can find a way to kind of get it together. Hopefully, we can come back with some momentum.

David Wesley

If momentum can take 'em up, momentum can bring 'em back down again.

Fred Ketchen

That was a big momentum changer. We didn't get a body on him.

Lon Kruger

The game versus Hamilton will be nice for Calgary to get some positive momentum.

Greg Frers

Nicole's (3-pointers) were definitely huge momentum shifts at the time.

Lelani Gordon

It was a great series. We felt like we definitely had momentum going into it, but they came back and beat us twice.

Bobby Kielty

We were never able to sustain (momentum). We'd get leads, but then they'd come back.

Judd Terwilliger

If there is anything that predicts momentum it's backlog.

Jack Trautman

That was a huge momentum turn.

Tami Slowiak

We're really pushing this hard, and we're starting to see some momentum.

Bob Lachky

That was huge, especially against this team. That opened things up for us, and gave us some momentum.

Derek Roy

It was a good Christmas for electronics. It was a hot area. There's some good momentum.

David Keuler

We're hoping to get a couple of wins and get some momentum for the tournament. The win against Fisher Catholic helped a lot because the girls know that they can do it.

Anna Kramer

When you are trading rushes like that, momentum can change pretty quickly.

Joffrey Lupul

The team has to be held accountable for wresting back the momentum.

Ian Stacker

We gave them the game. We were up four, but in the second period we took a couple penalties, the momentum changed and they were on their game.

Mathieu Garon

That was a big turning point in the game. Now it's under 10 and they have the momentum going their way.

Jon Constant

We just lost our momentum. Stephanie was the key to keeping us going.

Connie Guthrie

If we get a couple of those shots to pop in, it could be a momentum changer. Unfortunately, it?s the bounce of the ball. Sometimes it goes in, sometimes it stays out.

Gary Sherman

This (B&G Club) has the momentum to make it. It can be a community facility, not just a Boys and Girls Club.

Jim Henderson

I just let them know the momentum was turning our way, I wanted to make sure they knew who gets the puck.

Laura Schuler

There is a lot of momentum in the economy.

William Cheney

We have seen a lot of momentum buying.

Richard Herring

Demand in the first quarter continued to be strong across all three regions, maintaining the momentum of the fourth quarter.

Patrick Lo

We made a little adjustment on our press, and that gave them some fits. We got a lot of turnovers and a lot of buckets. It's a thing of momentum.

George Robinson

I think controlling momentum is a big thing, especially with a big building like the Kohl Center.

Jamie Russell

We have continued to see good momentum in all core business areas. These trends underpin our expectation of an excellent trading performance.

Clara Furse

The guys could feel it in the fourth and all they kept talking about was taking the momentum. After that, I knew we were in good shape.

Sal Urso

I think the dollar will try the upside if the data are good, but I don't think it will find momentum.

Jun Kitazawa

We deploy this division with great confidence, ... Our armed forces have made great progress in the past 2 1/2 years in Iraq. The 101st Airborne Division will continue that momentum.

Thomas Turner

With the continuing strength of the Arizona and Colorado economies, combined with the momentum of our banking franchise, we are very optimistic about 2006. We anticipate strong contributions from all of our business lines in the coming year.

Steven Bangert

We have three games left (in the regular season) to give us some momentum going into March (Madness), which has always been our month.

Paul Davis

That was massive. We wanted to have a little more leeway (in the seventh). But even more (importantly), it grabbed momentum back for us.

George Hansen

Obviously, Jack sensed that the momentum was starting to swing their way.

Chad Fox

Linux is right up near the top where the greatest relative momentum is heading.

Jim Mendelson

A lot of the momentum we started, he has allowed to flounder.

Don Siegelman

These will be achieved without the risk of the integration of a large and disparate brand portfolio into our existing business, which would have disrupted our existing momentum.

Philip Bowman

But we'll keep on. There's a long way to go but all the momentum is with England at the moment.

Adam Gilchrist

The only momentum that really counts is the momentum on election day.

Chuck Coughlin

That was huge and probably the biggest momentum swing of the game for us. It got us going again.

Ryan Huffstutler

I think we have gained momentum in the past few years. The world changes. I think that we have learned to do that too.

Barbara Gill

Our shooting was terrible. Against good teams, you have to hit your shots. It's momentum, and things like that.

Lora Staveness

Their pressure bothered us. It took us out of all of our set plays. When we came back from 10 down we got the momentum.

Jim Carlson

Just get the bunt down, and don't show too early at third. That is a play that just grabs the momentum back in your favor and gives them a sort of defeated attitude.

Steve Joslyn

Winning breeds confidence, it's as simple as that. There's a very good chance we may need to go through there in the playoffs, so we could gain a lot of confidence and momentum.

Colin Doyle

We just got the momentum and got into the flow of the game.

Anisha Queen

With the break between the second and third matches, you can lose some momentum.

Russ Borman

David Davis's campaign has gone into reverse and the opportunity has now arisen for us to become the champions of the right. David Cameron is going to get into the run-off. We need to look at who has got the momentum to beat him.

Chris Grayling

Early on in the game, we got some momentum. I moved some girls in for them to get a chance to score some, and I probably broke the rhythm a little bit. But I can't fault anything they did.

Mike Pline

It really hurt when we lost Jacqui Simon in the first 10 minutes of the second half. You saw a visible momentum shift after that happened.

Shelly Marsden

It's been a pretty graphic reflection of how much these nomination races are driven by momentum.

George Twigg

Funds' buying continued to boost stocks. The underlying tone of the market is still firm. The market may consolidate at around the 15,300 level before gaining momentum to advance further.

Alfred Chan

There is a great work ethic and a team spirit in the camp and this has been given even more momentum by how well we have played here.

Patrice Neveu

I played so poorly this morning. But I just hung in there. Once I got up some momentum I really didn't waver.

Mark Hensby

When a company has such a strong product cycle coming, there are years of momentum that you enjoy.

Hans Mosesmann

I hope this doesn't stop my momentum.

Billy Casper

We talk about how we need to win the turnover ratio. It grabs the momentum when you get a turnover.

Kyle Rippy
