Chris Hill

It brings energy to the game, and it keeps everybody into it. We have a lot of guys who can get out and run and finish and make plays in the open court, and I think that's one of the strengths of our team.

It was different. I haven't done that in a long time, but I was excited about it. I prayed on it last night. I was psyched to get out there, and I made a couple of plays.

Greg Lewis

Those were game-saving plays.

Mark Hunter

The impact that he has, and will continue to have on the teams that he plays with, cannot be underestimated.

Ian Mcgeechan

Our pitchers did a good job today. If we make those double plays, we're looking at a 2-0 game. And we had one chance ourselves to do something with the bases loaded. We made some plays in the field as the game went on that helped our pitchers hold them down. Overall, even though we didn't score, there were a lot of things that were encouraging.

Robert Eenhoorn

Fort Dodge gave us some chances with fumbles. It was back and forth, but it comes back to making plays. On that fourth and inches, we thought about taking it outside, then the play clock ran down on us and we didn't get it.

Brian Woodley

This government plays the card of confrontation in order to make people forget its arrogance and incompetence.

Segolene Royal

He made some good plays, some good throws.

Thomas Jones

We've got some athletes who can make plays. Denzel Gayden had an outstanding ballgame. Denzel flip flopped from defensive end to linebacker. Along with Ennis Sullivan and Chris Drummer, those three guys are seniors and guys that we'll depend on to lead us on defense.

John Carr

Our defense makes up for our offense. Everyone plays better offense when they play defense.

Orlandor Westbrooks

We've really begun to focus on the defense. We want to make plays on defense; we have the kids who can make those big plays.

Joe Bair

Give credit to the Lady Tigers. They made the plays when they needed to win the ball game.

Jimmy Alexander

We've been able to run some offensive plays already.

Clara Kassel

Andy is not playing his best tennis. Fernando has improved very much. I think he played his best match of the year (on Friday). I think the tie is still open. If Fernando plays his best tennis and Andy makes some mistakes, doesn't hit the ball well … Fernando can do some damage.

Hans Gildemeister

Defensively, I think we played really well. We made a few mistakes, but overall, some questions were answered.. . . Coach has us in the right positions. We just have to make plays.

Dale Robinson

I've hit big shots, big plays, but this is the biggest play I've ever made. This was great. Coming off a four-game skid, to get a tough win like that is just tremendous.

Terrence Roberts

They've got pretty good balance. But, most of their big plays have come through the passing game.

Vance Belew

I thought the offense had a bunch of different guys who made plays. It's kind of fun for players to be in that kind of decision-making position that we don't put them in during the season.

Randy Tribble

If the pattern plays out, you'll get the first decent downside correction we've seen in a year.

Jeff Saut

Troy Anderson

Whoever comes out and plays the best can do it.

Abby Green

Our defense has been our focal point all season. They made solid plays for most of the game.

John Hochstetler

Played percussively, the piano is a bore. If I go to a concert and someone plays like that I have two choices: go home or go to sleep. The goal is to make the piano sing, sing, sing.

Vladimir Horowitz

I don't feel that my whole game was bad. Those two plays I gave up were deep balls. They weren't touchdowns but they were long plays and they created momentum shifts. I mean, my body felt good, I was moving well. On the first one they just ran a great route for the defense we were in. Basically, that's what happened.

Duane Starks

When Jon plays like he can, nobody can stop him. He played big for us and made some crucial shots.

Jon Karnuth

The only way to remedy the problem of declining audiences is to look at plays that generate excitement. We feel like we have a strong lineup. It's very current.

Dan Shoemaker

We just have to go out and work together and make sure we execute plays. I'm not worried about them, they know what they have to do.

Willis Mcgahee

He's not a reserve or a part-time player. He's a champion that can alter a game, whether he enters from the bench or plays from the first minute.

Gianluigi Buffon

When my career first began, I didn't have children - so there's a whole lot of difference in the way I choose roles now. Not just films for my children, but how long I'm going to be away, and is Dad going to be home while I'm gone. That sort-of factor plays a part.

Amy Irving

We have another lineman, Nate Glasser, who is also a good one. He plays right beside Evan, but he doesn't have the size. If he was a couple inches taller he'd be getting all kind of attention, too.

Larry Taddeo

One of the first things I told the kids afterward was that Fred pitched a heck of a game. I honestly thought if we made the plays we should have made, they probably had five or six runs, and that's good against anyone.

Tom Sliva

She has a lot of court experience. When the competition rises, she plays always plays harder.

Linda Vivona

He's coming along real well. He can be a complete, complete outfielder. He's playing well enough right now. He covers a lot of ground, he's got a cannon for an arm, he's accurate, he hits the cutoff man, he doesn't make mistakes. He makes the plays he's supposed to make and more. He's going to be a very, very good outfielder.

Dave Mckay

They don't run a lot of plays but they run them well.

James Stokes

Offensively, we did a good job of getting the ball inside. We made some plays in the second half, and our girls hit their free throws.

Robby Reasonover

Matt had gotten them out all game. We didn't make the plays behind him in the last inning. He's a senior, and we knew he'd have the composure to get through it.

Barry Hightower

They hit us with some big plays, and that's uncharacteristic of our team.

Dan Morgan

Having a flexible system like we do have in the Bay Area -- highways, BART, ferries, buses -- doesn't just play out well every day, it plays out well in an emergency. Ferries performed well in the last earthquake, and a stronger ferry system would perform even better in the next earthquake.

Randy Rentschler

It was a solid game throughout. We were up one at the half (24-23), then down one after three (40-41). Bozeman made a few plays down the stretch, and we had some good looks but just couldn't convert.

Chad Olson

And Pittsville made some good plays, especially on defense.

Jay Anderson

It felt more natural to me. You come off the ball, make plays, run and hit. That's one thing I like to do. This is a real good move.

Alonzo Horton

He plays the game like a veteran. He's looking at the game like a veteran. I saw some of the reads he was picking up and some of our veteran quarterbacks weren't picking them up as fast as he was, so that's to his credit.

Fred Miller

I was very happy with how we played. We made a lot of plays down the stretch.

Tom Wiley

He's a shooter. They set the screens. Every kid that plays basketball can learn from him. He keeps his dribble alive. If he doesn't have anything he backs away and attacks again. ... The kid is just a great player.

Craig Teagle

At this level, guys really respect a guy who makes plays and kind of shows his leadership through his play. He likes to joke around, keep things light, make fun of guys. He's real lighthearted but once he's on the field he's all business.

Alex Brink

I'm lucky. Hard work is the key, but luck plays a part.

Neil Diamond

When he broke his leg I said my only hope was that he would play in the bowl game. Here he goes and plays in the bowl game and he intercepts a pass and runs it back for a touchdown -- that's tremendous.

Greg Mattison

Our defense played well behind him. Heath is more confident once he sees our defense is making plays.

Kevin Maxwell

He's outstanding. He's been very good. He plays a North American game, very physical. He's a good two-way player with an offensive touch.

Stan Butler

I can't ask any more of my pitchers. We just need to find a way to make plays behind them.

Joe Williamson

Goshen has made some serious, serious progress. That's a heck of a turnaround from an 0-and-10 team to a team that plays like that.

Phil Teegarden

The bottom line is to try to get into as much of a rhythm as we can before that first game. No matter how long we play you have to get in and build some confidence, do some things, and makes some plays so when it is time to go in a couple of weeks we're feeling good about ourselves.

Kurt Warner

David had one of his best games. He started the game making a lot of great plays on both ends of the court. When he's got that kind of energy, commitment and focus, our team's really good.

Dean Ellis

Jenny was the emcee. Marty would come out playing a plastic banjo, and they would do stage plays.

John Casey

Guys are going to make plays. You've got to come back and fight.

Darrent Williams

She doesn't have to score the goals to make you notice her on the field. She plays both ends of the field. She's in excellent shape. She normally plays all 80 minutes.

Sara Dickman

I know all their plays, all their tendencies. I mean, in a sense it was like practice. Obviously we wanted to win this. It's huge for the playoffs.

Katie Smith

We didn't bring the intensity that we needed in the first half. We didn't match their energy. To their credit, they made plays and we didn't.

Matt Maschino

I can't take any plays off. You have to have a heart and soul for the game. I take what the defense gives me. I don't force anything. One of my keys is to get my teammates open and create shots for them.

Brandon Adair

We missed Seth, there's no doubt about it. Any time you can put a 6-7 kid out there that plays as hard as he does, there's a lot of things his presence brings to our team.

Steve Roustio

Brittany doesn't give herself enough credit. She plays as a guard and forward for me, and is valuable to the team. She just needs some confidence in her shooting.

Sue Simmons

We hurt ourselves bad with the errors there. You just can't give teams four or five outs in an inning, and those errors came on routine plays.

Bill Sexton

On the whole, there is a general consensus that alcohol advertising plays a role but how much of a role is still open to debate, and research.

Jim O'hara

For me, there's no distinction between English and British. We are the biggest nation in the world that plays this game and we want someone who can really move us on.

Dave Richards

Once the auto surge plays out, we should see a pickup in spending on other items.

Stephen Gallagher

Whether I start or not is up to the coach, but we have such a good group attitude that it doesn't matter who plays.

Rafa Marquez

We're looking for everybody who plays in the midfield and the front line to get shots on goal and hopefully score some.

Brenda Hadwin

She's our leader. When she plays well, we all play well. When she is off, we're all off.

Donny Burnett

They helped us out with that wild pitch. They've got to make plays too. If they don't, we've got to try to capitalize. It just so happens Jordan was the right man in the right spot.

Leo Veleas

I just took a whack at it. It comes down to basic plays, simple plays. We were paying attention to the details.

Martin Lapointe

He had some errors behind him. They were plays we should have made, but when you come back and win, it doesn't matter as much.

Scott Downing

I thought we were doing what we needed to do, turn the plays we needed. We didn't do that as much in Games 2, 3 and 4. And they stepped up their serving.

Shane Davis

Fagan played very well and that was the key for them. That had a lot to do with us coming out of our zone because she ripped some balls and came up with some big plays.

John Reiser

We were a little shaky in the first half. But we started executing our plays and started wanting it more.

Abyee Maracigan

As long as he keeps playing with (the swagger) and keeps his head up and plays with confidence, we'll go a long way.

Justin Gage

We've got to get down to business and shake these nerves off and focus on the game. We have to make sure we get our plays down pat and keep our head in the game and not just focus on the fact that it's the first time we've been to states.

Andrea Rodrigues

The kids played hard and we made some plays and they hit the ball hard at us. They murdered the ball and we made the plays. We feel good about getting the first win of the year.

Joe Francisco

There's a wealth of cool content out there that plays well with our demos.

David Cohn

I've never had back-to-back plays like that. We had scouting reports, and both times they hit it the other way.

Aaron Rowand

It was a really fast-paced game. They really got good ball pressure, forced us to put it on the floor and make plays. We just didn't make plays. You're fortunate to when you make that many mistakes.

Forrest Larson

Whoever plays the best defense is going to win this league. So that's what we have to do, and we have to play better on the road.

Cy Alexander

But he can back the talk up, ... He always backs it up. You can talk all you want, but at the same time, he lives up to it. He goes and gets the ball. He's always hungry for it. He comes out and plays hard. He wants to win.

Ike Taylor

The next night our team just wasn't up for the game. We made a lot of bad plays. Robinson had a good little team, but that was a hard loss to take.

Alan Peacock

That's what he can do when he wants to. When he plays like he did tonight, we're tough.

Kip Rhoten

We talked about putting the ball in play and battling against Cedric. Early in the game, we hit the ball hard but they made great defensive plays, and the wind blowing in might have affected a couple of balls we hit well.

Joe Rodeghero

She just brings a lot to the field that elevates all the people around her. That kid comes out and plays hard every day. That's all I can ask. Great kid.

Paul Wetmore

I think we killed ourselves defensively. We can't make four errors and expect to win a Division I baseball game. That can't happen. Routine plays have to be made. We've put a lot of emphasis on defense and this just can't happen.

Mervyl Melendez

I was pleased with our run game and not pleased with the big plays we gave up in the passing game.

Jay Hopson

Every goal satisfies you. But when they are goals like this, and they are backdoor plays, they satisfy you more. It's fun to watch and fun to play.

Rastislav Spirko

Our league is pretty deep. Everybody's got a good team. Everybody plays hard. It comes down to who plays the hardest.

Kerwin Forges

Dale Robinson has made more plays that anyone could have imagined.

Brent Venables

It's really a chance for playwrights to get to hear their plays read and to hear actor, director and audience reaction.

Tracy Brigden

Teams like us, who haven't had as many wins, we kind of stumble a little bit to try to make some plays instead of keeping our composure as well.

Ben Troupe

I hate for that to really even be brought up because there's so many good things that have happened throughout the contests with people make great plays and great comebacks, those types of things.

Chip Williams

I like being on the floor with José. He plays with a lot of emotion. He really gives us a lot of fire whenever he's in or whenever he comes off the bench. If he starts in a slump, you know he's going to come out of it, given enough time.

Matt Carere

Movements have been small as the market plays wait-and-see with U.S. stocks.

Hiroichi Nishi

Coming into it I told them we were looking for some leadership. Looking into it, I thought we had some guys who made a couple plays. Pierre Ingram made some plays.

Rick Stockstill

We started off slow, and that's something we have to get better at. We waited around, and they got to us early, but we did make a couple of plays in the end.

Justin Haddix

I play against him in practice every day and I know what he's capable of. He's big and strong and he can rebound. I keep telling him that if he plays the way he does against me, he'll be fine. He'll get there.

Matt Haryasz

It was like unbelievable, ... There were so many holes. Some plays I tried to get too pretty ... and I got caught in the backfield. I love this line. They are a big group of lovely people, really.

Troy Davis

It might take us a couple of series to get adjusted. But it comes down to containing the quarterback (Sam Diehl) and making plays. That's how you win a big ballgame like this.

Mike Yeagle

Darcey is one of those players you never hear much about. She is a 5-foot-8 post player who always plays against people who are at least four inches taller than she is. Darcey is a quiet person, but she always gets the job done. We wouldn't be where we are without her.

Adam Houdeshell

That was the plan heading into this game. We wanted to get some runs on the board early and hopefully Jake would throw strikes and our defense would make plays.

Rick Heller

She's a trouper. She plays with a very resolved attitude and doesn't have negative emotions when things don't go well.

Mike Ziembroski

We get along off the court, but you have to get used to how everyone plays. We have to adjust as a team and get that chemistry.

Dave Bliss

In classical music, love is based on bitin' -- imitation. It's not based on interpretation. A jazz musician, if he plays someone else's song, has a responsibility to make a distinct and original statement.

Todd Boyd

We've got most of our stuff in now. We've had a little more time to jell. We'll script our first 20 plays. Of course, you have to get a feel for the game, which is why we've rarely gotten through our 20 plays without making changes.

Jeff Carnazzo

We had our chances. That's how football goes. We have to make those plays.

Dan Dvorak

She does everything well. The thing about her is she plays harder than anybody else on the floor.

Reggie White

He?s really worked on his blocking this year. He?s come up with some huge plays. He comes from an athletic background.

Marci Truex

I had to start making plays that he makes. He makes plays for everybody and I tried to do that tonight.

Kirk Snyder

He's a great role player. He's our most respected player and one of our captains. He's always positive, always upbeat and plays so hard every night.

Chuck Mcbreen

Mike is a tenacious defender. He's just lightning quick. And when he makes plays, that makes everybody else turn up their D.

Mike Defries

Randolph plays great defense and we knew that after last week's win over Roxbury. We've got a lot of work to do offensively but we'll figure it out.

Chris Hull

It was a matter of converting some plays at the end. Too bad, because the girls really fought hard in the second half. It gives us a look at where we can be if we play that aggressively offensively and with a lot of passion defensively like we did in the second half.

Sean Coste

Give them credit. They turned the double plays when they had to. We played good baseball. We just gave up too much in that first inning.

Geovany Soto

They kept making big plays, and our guys kept answering the call, making big plays right after them.

Randy Copeland

' love Florida State. I loved Coach Richt's system when he was there and I love the way he called plays. I would love to go to Georgia.

Matthew Stafford

We hope he continues to grace the city and plays a major role at the center. That will enhance the center and the city.

Tom Owen

This plays into the strategy of promoting mobility, enabling users to access the MCI network from any remote location.

Will Stofega

Community funding plays a significant role in helping Prevention Minnesota achieve its ambitious goal of making Minnesota a healthier place to live, work, and play. This is yet another way we're able to get local communities involved in improving the health of Minnesotans.

Marc Manley

They're a very good offensive club that plays the game with a design. They've got some outstanding hitters, and (the home runs) were a huge part (of the Series).

Pat Mcmahon

He's amazing for his age. Anybody at any level enjoys playing with John because he plays the game right. He does the fundamentals right. He elevates your game.

Tom Richardson

All of the possessions were big. It wasn't one possession that won or lost the game. Down the stretch we needed to make plays in order to win.

Shantia Grace

That's one of the best plays I've seen in a long time. Curtis and Bryant both did excellent jobs pitching. Mt. Zion's kids threw it well, too.

Tim Davis

The best way to get confidence is to play well and to make plays.

John Harbaugh

It'll be a huge challenge. He's a smaller guy who plays very big.

Corey Webster

We just didn't play well today. I thought they were more aggressive and they made more plays. They are a very good basketball team.

Mike Ingram

Who is Michael Owen anyway? What has he ever won in football? He plays for Real Madrid but he is always on the bench.

Carlos Alberto

This was a 15-rounder and then some, ... In the end Nebraska made more plays than we did.

Michigan State

Size is not her (only) game. She can run, she can catch and she can score. She just plays of the top of you. It will be a unique challenge for us.

Preston Early

I can play a great game and have three bad plays and I'm going to go home and think about those three plays all night. Out of 70 plays, I'm going to think about three plays. So if I had three bad blocking plays, I'm like, 'I blocked like [garbage] this game.'

Chris Cooley

He's an aggressive player who plays hard and intense every single down.

George Porritt

The thing we like best about Jax is the more important the game or the situation, the better he plays. That's a good quality to have for a hockey player.

Rob Sumner

Sam pitched well for us today. She kept things in control and let the girls behind her make plays.

Tom Drohner

I saw a team that plays extremely hard with a lot of confidence. They're a team to be reckoned with on a national level. They know what it takes to win at that level, too.

Rob Childress

You can't take anything away from Harrisburg; they have athletes, everybody knows that. If you miss the first tackle, you are going to be in trouble. They made some great plays, give them credit.

Shawn Kimple

Hillhouse plays 10 guys and they're very athletic. They rebound very well.

Jeff Beeman

We were down there, especially on those last four downs where it really was on the line, and you look in guys' eyes and you knew they wanted it. You knew guys were going to step up and make plays. I never once doubted that we could finish that game the right way.

Luis Castillo

He was tremendous. We tried to put him in positions where he can make plays, and that's exactly what he did tonight.

Brian Seymore

We just lost our intensity. The whole game, we played great defense, trying to slow them down and keep them in front of me. We just slipped up on a couple of plays at the end.

Luther Head

I have a feeling it's going to be a knock down, drag out. It's two teams that are pretty close. Whoever plays the best, that's what it boils down to.

Rick Soracco

We've got some pretty good arms. It's just a matter of throwing strikes and whether we can make the plays behind them.

Travis Barbary

Coach Carroll looked at how he moved around and he's athletic enough so we'll try it. He's physical and has natural savvy. He might make some special plays on the outside.

Greg Burns

[Kelly] makes good plays for us and gets on base.

Keith Dunn

He settled down pretty quick. You could see it in his eyes when he called the plays. It was wonderful to see him out there.

Kenny Irons

The dude plays pick-up games like he's playing to get to the Final Four.

Pat Clatchey

...With 9:36 left in the game, in retrospect we might have gone for two because we ended up with three more plays on offense the rest of the game. It's a lot easier looking back and analyzing going for two.

Dennis Franchione

It's just the mentality in the business community now, ... They know they have to become more and more efficient in order to keep costs down and be more competitive in world markets. I think that mentality plays a very big role in these results.

Richard Rippe

But for us, the biggest change in the Australian market over the last five to 10 years has been local companies becoming more international in their focus, which plays to our strengths.

Stuart Davis

It was a great atmosphere to play in. Both crowds were real active and both teams play exceptionally hard. We just made some plays right before halftime and every time they made a run at us we'd answer.

Jim Stafford

He was on his back. I don't think he ever saw where the puck was. He just made a swat at it. That's why he's one of the premiere players in the league. He makes plays like that.

Jean Paul Marat

They're very basic in their approach to the run game. They run what we call a power-O, a counter, some tosses and lead weaks. Those were basically the plays.

London Fletcher

I'm drawn to plays with huge canvases and huge casts, and this is the prototype of that kind of play. There's a kind of energy in this play that you don't associate with social drama as a rule.

Nicholas Martin

Let him who plays the monarch be a king; Who plays the rogue, be perfect in his part.

Thomas Erskine

The annuals, the yearbooks, brochures and programs of old plays and musicals...that all tells the story about what they did.

Tom Stone

Pasco plays us physical and we'll have to be ready for a game like that. At moments (in the two previous games) we got a little frustrated but that's good for us.

John Triplett

Megan Nelson was in a new position (libero) and made some stellar plays on defense.

Maggie Erlenbaugh

The thing you always remember about Carlos is, he has the best smile -- even when he plays soccer.

Pam Murphy

We've been hitting the ball and we hit it again today. It's 10 times easier to pitch when you score runs early in the game and people make plays behind you.

Brandon Bates

From the beginning we thought we had a chance to win the game. We all kind of looked at each other and in unspoken words said 'we can do this.' What we said all along is you just have to hang around, which we did. We just didn't make the plays down the stretch to get the win.

Tyler Azzarelli

LSU recruits some great athletes, it's just a matter of going out there and making plays, ... It's going to be like that for a long time because they keep recruiting great players.

Marcus Spears

He pitched a great game. Plain and simple, we did not make the plays.

Bill Sikes

Give Lake Catholic credit. They made the plays when they had to, which is what a senior-laden team does.

Dave Munson

The night before we'll go over the plays with Duane. We'll talk to him and get him right. And he is right. He's ready.

Jimmy Martin

We had several key plays in the game's final minutes, and it was really an overall team effort. The girls played hard like they have all season long, and it's still paying off for us.

Roy Backus

But if he can play, it doesn't matter what position he plays. We want him.

Turner Gill

Our guys battle good along the board. They take and make hits to make plays.

Jon Yackmack

I know that he can be good. How good? I don't really know, but I think it's quite a bit better than what he has run this weekend. We'll just have to see how everything plays out.

John Cochrane

Even if there's a pick-up today in job creation, we should not see a real improvement in delinquencies until later this year -- there's about a six- to nine-month lag. But I clearly believe the employment market plays a key factor in delinquencies.

Keith Leggett

Our plan was to not give up a lot of big plays, ... Our defense is getting better and better each week.

Jay Brown

His last days, a noble confrontation with death, made his life as much a work of art as his plays.

Robert Brustein

He's so talented and just plays so loose. It seems like he's playing without any effort, plays always by instinct.

Maria Sharapova

Galvez threw the ball well and we made some plays. We just couldn't get anything going offensively.

Chad Epperson

He was pretty confident coming in. He was ready for the game. You could tell. In big games this year, he has come through for us pretty well. He always seems to make big plays for us. He is a pretty heady basketball player.

Greg Heath

She has a great all-around game. She plays inside and outside. She guards the top-scoring opponent. She's intense, too. She just hustles so much all the time.

Mike Workman

And Ozzie Smith would never have been in the Hall of Fame either without all the outstanding plays he had to make behind me.

Bob Forsch

I say that confidently. I'm not by any means going to play the perfect game, but I feel like I can go in there and make the plays and get the things done that can win us a game.

Philip Rivers

He plays poker by night and golf by day.
