There may not be a solution, but we've got like $200,000 worth of overtime in this budget and it looks to me like there would be some way we could knock some of that out. If we could, it might eliminate having to do away with people, or at least some of them. Maybe there's not a way, but that just looks like a ton of overtime.

They went into overtime and beat us to tie it up 1-1, and they went on to win that series [in seven games]. Obviously, if we had gone up 2-0, we probably would have gone back to LA and maybe capped off the series.

That had been one of my goals, since I was a freshman. For me to have a good game like that and to have an overtime win, it was just so exciting.

Troy Dayak

The guy hit a tough shot to get the game in overtime.

Scott Goodale

It was tough. That eliminates us from the playoffs so it's a hard way to end an overtime game.

Doug Steines

To us that's a clear slate. We love overtime. It was a fast game. We had opportunities but it didn't happen.

Tom Steinhorst

That really killed me. If I could have fought it off, it's a 2-2 match going into overtime and anything can happen. I guess I'll never know.

They're having a very nice season, and this was the first time West had won an overtime game. The team has really bonded.

It wasn't big things, just little things. Some nights it was missed free throws, some not getting key rebounds, some bad bounces, and, like tonight, missed defensive assignments in overtime. We've competed to the wire in just about every game since early January.

Doug Foote

Really, I thought we had the momentum going into the overtime. I thought we were being really aggressive and they might have had one or two shots in the last 15 minutes of regulation. Obviously, it's a tough way to lose.

Randy Zavada

We lost eight one-point decisions, three in overtime. That's not what a good team does.

Keith Smith

We had a defensive breakdown. We made a correction during the intermission before overtime. The game was a great experience for the kids.

Jack Richardson

We had plenty of chances in that first overtime. Things didn't seem to bounce our way and we came up on the short end.

Karl Gilbert

If we knock down a couple shots, it's a totally different basketball game. At the end of regulation and overtime, two of our better shooters got good looks. They've just got to knock them down. I'm not faulting them on that, but we've just got to make some shots.

Bret Reedy

They (Bucks) are going to hurt some people down the stretch. We were very fortunate to win this game. Heck, we were fortunate to get it to overtime.

Tim Ehresman

It was a very intense game all the way through, and the second overtime was very back and forth.

Brian Musty

I thought we had it won in regulation, and we should have. We just didn't knock them (free throws) down, but we came back in overtime and got it done.

We're on our way to spend $37 million in overtime this year.

Dora Schriro

I thought right then that we were going into overtime.

John Cherne

Once we got to overtime, we were going to win. Luckily, I was hitting my penalty shots well.

Carlos Gracida

I've scored overtime goals before, but not like this one on the road, against a good team, and in front of that many people.

Don Hudson

Every other city employee got overtime. If they can't get it, we'll reimburse the money and FEMA said they would pay.

In some really small businesses, it may be that your only computer guy will have to come in. Paying overtime for those people is a little more of a burden on the small company.

Jeff Brenning

Marshall Brown

Every year we come up here, it's always close games --sometimes overtime, one or two points. This might be one of the largest margins.

We had a good game and they had a bad day. This game was totally a surprise. I was expecting an overtime game.

Dean Waters

Nelson County played well and stepped up and made plays to win. We had opportunities to force overtime or win it, but it didn't go our way. You have to give all the credit to Nelson County.

Gary Goode

It was a good playoff-level game. For us to win in overtime is a tremendous boost. This is the biggest game of the year for us.

I felt that we could stop them (in overtime). I really wanted to put it in the hands of our defense.

Laura Harper

If you were willing to work, the overtime was there for you.

Chuck Cooper

The numbers (of mechanics working forced overtime) were small but the concerns were large it could increase. This was a major issue for members and these talks aren't held in a vacuum.

Frank Larkin

We've just got to play the way we played the third and overtime. We've got to play desperate. That's our big thing.

With 11 seconds left, if the three isn't there then you take it to the basket. It was the same thing we did to East to take it to overtime.

Jason Floetke

I thought we executed extremely well in overtime.

Gregg Schaffer

She should make a commitment to some overtime each month, perhaps one weekend. Every dime of that overtime should be committed to an additional payment to the top card on the Obnoxious List.

Diane Rolfsmeyer

In overtime, my guys were tired. They got five offensive rebounds off of foul misses late and that was key.

Dwayne Howell

Michelle Hall

Yeah, the way he's been playing recently, I'll have plenty of overtime.

John Parrott

Our confidence in overtime is out of this world.

Laura Harper

We needed to be able to push a few inches. If you don't push it in from there, you don't deserve it. We had a great shot to go into overtime. This game probably deserved to be in that situation.

Jim Stuglis

Berkley has a good team. They'd won a lot of games. If there was a difference in overtime, I think it was our experience. We'd been in that position before, and we knew we had to go out and create some opportunities.

Lou Schmidt

We beat them in overtime last time (Dec. 17), so we knew this was going to be a tough game. We fought as hard as we could, and in the end, it came out on our side.

David Cripe

It was tough. We needed to at least protect the ball there and punt it away. At that point you're looking at overtime.

No one can doubt our heart, not with three overtime wins. No one can doubt that we deserve to be here.

I felt if we went to overtime, we'd be OK. Two of their guys had fouled out.

Wendell Jeffries

The blocked extra points were huge, ... Especially the one in overtime.

John Doherty

We played really well in overtime.

Dick Mcconnell

The overtime was a good quarter for us. The girls focused up a little bit, and we were able to make some big foul shots down the stretch. That really helped us.

We were fortunate to even make it to overtime. We were behind the whole time. We were outplayed.

Brendan Nagel

He (Gerhardt) came through there in the end and made some big buckets for us in overtime and actually played some good defense for us in the end.

Micah Marsh

It definitely helped us to be in those types of games. We learned to execute and learned how to give ourselves a chance to win. Sometimes you can practice all that, but you need the experience of doing it. We have been in three overtime games this year and won them all, so that bodes well for us.

Dave Hancock

Usually a team that hits that kind of shot rides the emotion through overtime.

Joe Lynch

I don't know why we're losing them. I think once we get one we'll be fine. I think losing on the last shot (at ASU), and to Arizona in overtime really brought us down.

Gabrielle Richards

They came up with that big 3-pointer right away in overtime, and we had to claw back after that.

Arno Kirchenwitz

We owned the rebounds in overtime.

Southern Boone played very, very well. They had played Friday night as well, defeating Harrisburg in overtime.

Bruce Weber

We made some strides defensively. But we just couldn't get a big stop in overtime.

Tony Longa

When you think of those overtime games, some of the others that were ours to win going into the last minute or so, I know ? we all know ? it would a be a different season if we had him.

Shawan Robinson

I saw a chance to score and put the match back on my side. I knew he had a little more riding time than me in overtime, so I was going to have to score to win.

The key for us was that we made our free throws and held our composure in overtime.

Gene Grumman

I was just praying that we'd get to overtime. We did, and the kids made big plays down the stretch.

Dave Benter

We felt we were going to win the game. We took the lead and that gave us some emotion, but I don't think we executed our sets well. That's something we did earlier in the game but in overtime we didn't do that.

Overtime is our time. I didn't worry about it.

Kristi Toliver

There were some bad calls late in the game, and then we came up short in overtime.

Many young officers died from working too much overtime.
