George Bernard Shaw

Money's the same, whoever gives it to you. That was the point of money, after all: crisp and clean or wrinkled or disintegrated into quarters - a dollar was always worth a hundred cents.

Scott Westerfeld

I think we lost a little bit of our intensity in the second half. When we lose our intensity and focus like that it is really disappointing because we are a team that prides ourselves on playing hard all four quarters.

Chris Paulson

We played all four quarters tonight. We led for all four quarters, and we executed.

Just real basic improvement on operations, I think will a major change in this company, ... With the last couple of quarters, not only were the results disappointing, but the visibility in to the future has been murky.

Miranda Tate

We were able to force a lot of turnovers, especially in the second and third quarters. We had some easy baskets.

Buddy Carlisle

We had our best fourth quarter of the year. We didn't get the bounces for three quarters, but the girls took control in the fourth.

After last week, we challenged the kids to play four quarters of football. I like the way the team responded.

Gerald Zukowski

Javi played great. He was on the kid the whole time, and shut him down for three quarters. He only had five points, and Javi had 23 points.

Joe Sigrist

If you don't come to play (on Saturday), you are going to lose. You better come ready to play and ready to play four quarters.

Chris Mestl

We came out and pressured in the fourth quarter pretty well, but it's not the kind of pressure we can sustain for four quarters. I think we finally decided in the fourth quarter that the ball did fit in the basket. It took us a long time to figure that out.

Todd Rogers

I was pretty happy with a good solid effort for four quarters. There are things we have to keep working on and keep improving. We could do better on the defensive end but overall I'm happy with their performance.

Heidi Michaelis

On the other hand, it's possible the first quarter's growth was just a one-time inventory rebound and that we're now stuck in a range of 1.5-to-2 percent growth. If that continues, it will be much like the early 90s.

Laurence Meyer

We were hanging with them punch for punch the entire game. We felt that we could actually compete with them, and we did for 2½ quarters.

Darrell Brooks

I thought we played well the last three quarters, but we need to develop mental toughness and not take quarters off.

Paul Althaus

We generally have had a good feeling going into the third and fourth quarters because the economy is doing better than expected. Semiconductors are going to get a boost from seasonal trends.

Cody Acree

Bernard J. Ebbers

For three-quarters of the game I thought we played very, very well. I think we matched their intensity.

Lance Davids

Scioto just hammered us in the second and third quarters the last time we played them.

Todd Minney

This quarter's a throwaway.

Paul Johnson

We played really good for three and one-half quarters. We were just one or two possessions away from finishing the deal, but we just couldn't get the rebound we needed or we couldn't handle the ball.

Gary Murphy

Traditionally the first and second quarters have the lowest losses.

Dave Dasgupta

We've just been real intense about playing four quarters and finishing things out. The first half of the season we played hard and didn't win. Now we're still playing hard and we're able to come away with a win. We're maturing as a team.

John Buskirk

Three-quarters of the people in town were directly tied to citrus or indirectly tied to citrus.

Dave Black

We've already seen a lot of IT hiring activity in the past two quarters of 2005.

Jeff Markham

I was very happy with our defense. In three of the quarters they had four, five, and five points, and that's just us playing with a lot of heart and on Senior Night that was great for them. We were on the floor for every loose ball and we got after it.

Pam Adams

They did a good job. I'm really proud of the way we came back and played. But we have to carry that into all four quarters. That will be really important for us.

Sean Coste

It gives you the sense that maybe this earnings cycle is going to be like the rest, where it starts out like it's going to be terrible and it ends up looking good, ... That's been the pattern for eight quarters.

Jim Paulsen

Global economic conditions have been progressing as we expected during the quarter, thus resulting in the gradually improving volume trends. I am pleased to say that we are experiencing improving unit case volume trends in each of our operating groups when compared to the trends of the previous two quarters.

Douglas Ivester

That comment should calm concerns that the first quarter could be down, and positions Best Buy for solid earnings per share improvements against the second and third quarters.

Gary Balter

We probably have 10 to 12 guys on our basketball team that will have 40 quarters of experience for next year. If we can get a win (Friday) it will give us some momentum. For any kind of win will help us with the season we're having. It's able to keep the kids energized and excited about coming to practice and the players have done a good job.

Jerry Groves

We played four quarters with consistency and pressure defense. I knew eventually our shots would fall, we're a good shooting team.

Jeff Sprouse

I'm not sure what exactly the medical people have got planned for him, but I'd imagine he'd play a half to three quarters.

Alastair Clarkson

We played well and everybody got at least two quarters of playing time. This was our all-around best team effort.

Michelle Taliaferro

Our view is that there is a long way to go down. Whether that's Monday, next month or over the next few quarters isn't known.

Rick Summer

It's much more difficult to give a party than a roll of quarters. Any damn fool can hand over a roll of quarters, and we have a lot of damn fools handing over rolls of quarters.

Steve Wynn

For example, if the allowance is $5 a week, I would provide a child with four dollar bills and four quarters. I would minimally have the child get in the habit of setting 50 cents of the $5 away for long-term saving and investing.

Sam Renick

Whether it's 7 percent or 7.3 percent the point remains the same: Growth is really strong and what's obviously an issue is how long this going to continue and what are we going to see going forward for the first few quarters of 2000.

Stephen Slifer

On this basis, the doubling in the oil price since 2003 will have knocked something like three quarters of a percentage point off GDP growth during this year alone.

Peter Spencer

But after all the corporate governance issues, there's a tendency now of erring on the side of ultra-conservatism in terms of what companies say about future quarters and that's going to continue.

Ned Riley

People over-purchased in 2000, ... So they did not need to purchase in 2001 to keep up with Internet traffic growth. But this over capacity is limited to the next few quarters.

Dr. Lawrence Roberts

I did mention to Kevin before the game that his state tournament career started with Desert knocking us out in the quarters. He didn't want it to end that way.

Bob Fredericks

We let them get 11 in the first quarter. Then we only allowed nine points in the second and third quarters combined. That's huge for us.

Craig Stinnett

We remain buyers of the developers, ... The flow of new launches over the next two quarters should see good take-up, with this soothing current market fears and acting as a catalyst for renewed investor interest.

Mark Simpson

No matter what our records are this game, you can throw that out usually, ... I know for us, we just can't be consistent enough through four quarters. We don't have some intangibles that we used to have with experience. In a game like this, we're a lot alike.

Sequoyah

Our slower quarters had to do with ... trying to move in freshmen and less-experienced players.

Paul Doughty

We found a way to lose it at the end. We had played well for 3 1/2 quarters.

Brian Urlacher

That was a pride thing. We knew it was unlikely, a long shot. But ... if we'd have that type of intensity and carried it through those first two quarters, it could have been a different game.

Josh Borland

That's kind of been the tale of our season. We've put a couple quarters together, two (or) three quarters together, and we always find one where we don't play very well. We came out heavy footed and didn't get much done in that first half. We have to find a way to put four quarters together.

Jon Monti

What we're trying to do is make sure we don't beat ourselves. Probably the most important thing is to compete for four quarters.

Paul Troth

Dell's problems may take several quarters to work through.

David Wong

It's still early in the quarter, ... Obviously acceptance of Acrobat will play a big part in terms of how high the company's growth will be. But as we've demonstrated over the last eight to 10 quarters, we're a company that knows how to manage our business. ... We'll see what happens.

Bruce Chizen

The next two quarters become critical [for Apple].

William Schaub

Kennedy has been wounded, and his polls show he's been hurt badly. He was a prohibitive favorite before, and now in some quarters he is not the favorite.

David Nyhan

I look forward to improvement in our consistency for all four quarters of the game and in our fundamentals. When we put all the pieces together, it should be a lot of fun to watch.

Rusty Boostrom

The numbers are very positive, as they are much stronger than expected. It signals an economic upturn in the coming quarters.

Stefan Bielmeier

We got out and ran in the second and third quarters. I thought that was a huge key to the game.

Keith Diebler

We came out really, really strong in the first two quarters. But then, I don't know, we just kind of got laid-back in the third quarter and our defense started to fall apart.

Julie Futch

It's a great feeling. We've never been 4-0 since I've been here, and I can't tell you the last time we were 4-0. Our kids are playing a full four quarters.

Bob Schellinger

It was a game of runs. We got off to a good start, shooting 9-for-13 in the first quarter, then they went on a run that lasted for two quarters.

Layne Higgs

I've got to work harder to create my own shot. The first few quarters, I put way too much burden on (Martin).

Rob Hummel

The numbers speak for themselves. We have managed a dramatic re-engineering of the company in fiscal 2005, and shown four profitable quarters. Our challenge is now to grow the company, and realize some of the exciting opportunities that we see before us in both the commercial and business aviation markets.

David Fox

The second and fourth quarters were our best quarters. We have to get out tougher and not let them pull away at the end.

Russ Taylor

We jumped out early in the first quarter and led 14-3. We played pretty good defense early, but then it was pretty even until the fourth when we out scored them 23-16. The second and third quarters were evenly matched.

Robin Wozny

They've had lighter [numbers] in the past two quarters. There might have been some inventory fluctuations that would actually help them and have a small impact on sales numbers on the positive side. Otherwise, I'm expecting numbers to be in line with consensus.

Shiv Kapoor

We are pleased with the quarter's results, ... Despite low aluminum prices - which are down 14 percent since the beginning of 1998 -- we have maintained strong earnings.

Paul O'neill

[Orr has only seven catches overall but they've been timely, according to Mason, which goes along with his blocking.] He had a 7-yard catch the other day at North Carolina, ... that was as good of a catch as you'll see in tight quarters.

Henry Mason

Our kids are just having a little trouble putting four quarters together.

Andy Woodley

We're playing a lot better (than earlier in the year). We just need to continue to compete and continue to do what we can do. There are wins out there, but we need to put together four quarters.

Tim Bowman

We played very well in the first half but had to struggle to hold on in the second. We must play four quarters throughout and not just two.

Doug Guillory

Earnings aren't very interesting right now and probably won't be for the next couple of quarters.

John Carey

This is not a surprise, based on their last earnings disappointment. I think they're a one-product company and somewhat of a status company. We expect more of the same in quarters to come.

Derrick Berry

The underlying trend for our industry over the next decade should be strong. What we've seen in the past couple of quarters is bookings have been picking up.

Jim Morgan

I think there is going to be a demand explosion in the third and fourth quarters that surprises even Intel.

Danny Lam

This is a classic David and Goliath match up. We've played three good quarters each time and then we'll have a breakdown in a quarter. We'll play poorly for a two or three-minute spurt, and we can't recover.

Casey Higgins

Wagner has lovely moments but awful quarters of an hour.

Gioacchino Rossini

We are hitting the bottom in this industry. But it's not as bad as it was two quarters ago.

Moshe Katri

Those guys (Notre Dame) are a different team than the one we played the last three seasons. They're more organized, and they played hard for four quarters. They were definitely more than we expected.

Josh Henderson

We definitely want to use the whole court and pressure you full court. Basically, we want to pressure the ball. If we can do that for four quarters, we're going to get a four- or six-point run late in the game.

Brian Dartt

The weakness in natural gas prices, having fallen from an extreme of $15 a current $7.50 with (more than) 60% of the winter heating season already over, provides risk of a natural-gas-inspired 'bump' coming over the next two quarters.

Jim Wicklund

We were hitting the cover off the ball. We had a couple of quarters in our pocket.

David Delainey

We stuck to the game plan for four quarters. We did not deviate from it at all. Instead of a one-goal victory, we have a five-goal victory.

Richard Corso

Clark ended up getting hurt, and I had to play like three quarters, ... The tight end came across the middle, and I knocked him silly and almost knocked myself out. They said I was out, but I don't think I was.

James Harrison

How do you create a virtual network for three-quarters of an organization that doesn't have an office?

James Canton

It seemed like we played the last two and a half quarters from our two-yard line and in. We couldn't get it out, and we were giving Jasper a short field time after time.

James Blankenship

I thought we played well for three quarters and even in the fourth quarter we didn't play that poorly. We had open looks at the basket. The shots wouldn't fall for us and they did for them.

Stan Eagleson

I thought we came out focused. For the first time all year, we played well all four quarters.

Luke Vail

Game ain't played in three quarters. It's four.

Jerome Harrison

We played very well in the first three quarters. In the fourth, Harrison closed it to within three.

Joe Clinton

They're apparently living in tight quarters. That's not a crime in itself. Our main concern is that the children were gone so long and did the parents allow that.

Serg Palanov

Right now it's wonderful to celebrate good earnings growth in the first quarter and nice growth in the second quarter, but it's going to get a heck of a lot harder in the third and fourth quarters.

Wendell Perkins

[Market reaction to the numbers was] a little churlish, ... BT has been right off the range of forecasts for about the last 10 quarters.

Justinian

This time, we should work on the integration of developing countries into the WTO, ... They represent three-quarters of the membership.

Supachai Panitchpakdi

Japan turned positive after seven quarters of negative comparisons. That's the story here.

Stacey Widlitz

Almost three quarters of our margin decline in the first half of this year is because we are spending to retain and acquire customers there.

Arun Sarin

He found an abandoned fort along the river, some wood, nails and an orange grove and moved his family from Key West to the officer's quarters.

William Hanson

We did some good things. We are very confident in what we have. We just need to make some adjustments. We had some good individual efforts. We just need to put four quarters together.

Dan Hinds

We just didn't match their intensity, four quarters, you know. Sometimes we played decent, scoring, making plays, but then we wouldn't execute like we should. There was a lot of frustration, you could feel it. The offense, the coaching staff. We just weren't executing.

Tatum Bell

We've got to play all four quarters of every game like we played the fourth quarter against Maryville. We've got to win two games in the district tournament to get into the region. These girls know the challenge and they've got to step up and do it.

Gene Huskey

Given the massive catastrophe losses absorbed by insurers in 2005, the increase in income during the first three quarters is a testament to the underlying financial health of the industry.

Gregory Heidrich

While the plan is reasonable and may potentially bear fruit, we believe it will take several quarters to materialize.

John Rizzuto

The second and third quarters we played hard and played well but we got tired.

Mike Seward

A practical botanist will distinguish at the first glance the plant of the different quarters of the globe and yet will be at a loss to tell by what marks he detects them.

Carolus Linnaeus

You hear about how many fourth quarter comebacks that a guy has and I think it means a guy screwed up in the first three quarters.

Peyton Manning

I was frustrated because they were the better team for the first three quarters and I couldn't be a part of something to turn it around, ... We didn't attack them that much early so we probably lured them into [soft coverage]. When it became critical we attacked them when they gave us a look they shouldn't have.

Santana Moss

We're a young, inexperienced team and sometimes we look good offensively and play with a lot of confidence. But until we can put four quarters of good basketball together, we will struggle just as we have.

Mike Drews

Although the fact that Cott is facing higher packaging costs per se is not news, the fact that the company at this point sees an inability to manage through this for the next few quarters is.

Patricia Baker

Overall, the macro-environment was somewhat challenging for software vendors in the third quarter, but we are expecting to see in-line quarters from most of the companies.

Karen Haus

I was so proud of the heart we showed. Over the last three quarters, we fought our way back into the game and had a big surge in the fourth.

Cindy Allison

There is no truth to these allegations and these allegations are simply made in order to satisfy certain quarters.

Javad Zarif

Our game plan coming in was to limit their threes. We did that pretty good for three quarters and then they hit a couple there back to back and we didn't execute on the other end.

Monica Wells

Our market share remains broadly where it was in the last few quarters, ... It's a monetization issue, and that is something we're going to have to reverse in the future.

Chris Liddell

Currency effects will definitely be an issue for BMW this year as well, especially in the first two quarters.

Michael Tyndall

The attack killed a soldier and injured three others, some houses were also damaged and electric supply was also cut off to the residential quarters.

Abdul Samad Lasi

This was one of our better fourth-quarter games. All four quarters we played good defense and shot the ball well, and we rebounded very well.

Gene Brisbane

The Street was surprised with the strength of the earnings in both quarters.

Howard Silverblatt

We ran out of gas in the second half. We came out and played half the game, and not all four quarters. It was our stamina that really beat us there.

Andrea Reed

I challenged my secondary at halftime. I told them to lay it on the line and make plays ... I am proud of this group of guys, because there have been some questions about whether we could play four quarters. Not only did we do that, we did it in overtime and won a big one.

Bret Munsey

For three quarters we did a great job on him. But he stepped it up when he needed to. He's not a scholarship player for nothing.

Jake Palluzzi

We've been down 10 or 12 points before. The girls realize there are four quarters in a game, and you have to play all four.

Bill Wolf

It was a good ball game. I'm real proud of the kids. We played solid for four quarters, and that's what you have to do in this district.

Lonnie Gaylor

I don't think there's a person on our management team that wouldn't have liked a couple more quarters to prove our mettle.

George Shaheen

The Congress president has taken a serious note of the unfortunate deaths in Assam and raised the issue at appropriate quarters.

Abhishek Singhvi

Look for manufacturing employment to continue to decline in the coming quarters -- a clear negative for overall employment quality.

Benjamin Tal

While IBM has clearly had several disappointing quarters, we believe that services, Freeway, storage and microelectronics offer promising opportunities.

George Elling

I think not only did we increase our confidence, but how we handle it. We learned that if we put together four good quarters, we can confidently play with anybody and that's what we were able to do tonight.

Jeni Hopkins

Out of the three times we played them, this time was the most likely win for us. If we had just played four solid quarters, the outcome of the game would have been different.

Rayne Reber

Access to over 30 month aged cattle should open up in the third or fourth quarters of 2006.

Dennis Laycraft

Everything is written, and we're about three-quarters of the way through the recording. We're not sure yet when it's going to come out.

Dan Estrin

We felt like the tide was about to turn. We had to play on all cylinders for four quarters and I think we played on 2 cylinders for two quarters. And the two quarters where we didn't play on all cylinders, it showed.

Mark James

We just didn't match their intensity through all four quarters.

Tatum Bell

I think the key was that our defensive guys were fresh in the third and fourth quarters. That's because seven of them only go one way.

Doug Phillips

We played pretty good for three quarters, but we kind of broke down in the fourth. (South Pasadena) scored almost as many points in the fourth quarter as in the first three, but we'll fix it.

Derrick Delton

The economy has been growing at a sub-par pace for five quarters now and we cannot see that situation changing over the next year or so.

Philip Shaw

Earnings for the fourth quarter have generally met or exceeded expectations. We've seen solid reports from a number of different industries, with strength not just in energy, as in previous quarters in 2005.

Michael Sheldon

Our kids were ready and they were focused and that set the tone for us the first three quarters. When we play inspired and play with effort like that, we feel like we can play with a lot of people.

Joe Layne

That was the first time all year I've had to get in my kids' faces about effort. To their credit, they responded. But we needed three quarters of great basketball after that, and we didn't get it.

Pat Cleland

[The data] could prove marginally positive for ATI. Its share gain in the performance DX9 sub-segment is encouraging, and we believe this is the beginning of more significant high-end share gains by ATI in upcoming quarters.

Gurinder Kalra

We believe precipitous declines in NAND prices are being driven primarily by excess supply, as NAND makers have invested significant capital over the last several quarters. In addition to capital investments dedicated purely to NAND, the transition of DRAM capacity to NAND capacity has further exacerbated the supply problem in NAND.

James Covello

If the numbers keep trading down for a bunch of quarters, then maybe we'll get nervous.

Rob Sanderson

The charge for credit cards should help upcoming quarters for loan losses. Also, the company should benefit more than most from ongoing restructuring, including $800 million of remaining merger savings.

Michael Mayo

People come, they have a very good meal, for very good value for their dollar, they grab a couple rolls of quarters, play 'till they're gone and then go home.

Glenn Christenson

We played hard in the fourth quarter to get back in the game. We're just not coming to play four quarters.

Brian Ellis

We've had two quarters of financial data that need to be updated.

Jim Gerace

A couple decent quarters do not a turnaround make. The competitive issues haven't changed that much. February sales looked better but they're also set against easier comparisons. There's still a long way to go until a real turnaround.

George Whalin

Inventory has become a life and death issue for our industry. The lesson of the last two quarters is that inventory has moved from being a concern of the purchasing segment to a concern of the industry itself.

Sean Maloney

We knew that we weren't going to beat them with the way we had played in the first three quarters. Just … rallying the guys together and getting them up was the edge.

Trevor Terrell

For three quarters, we played great. But we need to put that into 32 minutes instead of just three quarters. Even though we did turn the ball over in the fourth quarter, we still found a way to get the job done.

Michael Teller

We could have easily given up and moved on with our lives. We all wanted to compete. That was embarrassing (in the first three quarters). Nobody wants to be embarrassed, so we had to get out there and play as hard as we can.

Jamal Crawford

Watsonville always plays tough. It doesn't matter what they have, they always work hard for four quarters.

Charles Burks

This was the first game in two years we were able to put four quarters together. We played well in every aspect of the game.

Nick Nicola

It sure seemed like we got some breakaways ... and we ended the quarters pretty well.

Jim Jeske

When (Smith) got that third one, it was very big for us. He was controlling the inside. But my little guys did a great job in the third and fourth quarters.

Doug Erny

Our focus for these games has been to play four quarters of intense, Western defense. Our biggest thing was just to help on the ball, help in on the post, and focus on limiting them inside.

Courtney Clapp

It's been like that all year. We always have one of those quarters when we don't play well.

Bob Ford

We now have reported four consecutive quarters of gross margin improvement and achieved a significant milestone in reporting GAAP profitability for the fiscal third quarter.

Steve Schwartz

I don't have the answer to that game. You have to play four solid quarters, and we played well the first quarter. In the second half we never got into a flow. We would get a five, six point lead and we would let (Norfolk) right back in.

Mark Woodhead

We got in foul trouble and had a couple of starters out of the game. We out-played them three quarters and they had us one, but the game is decided in the total four quarters.

Dennis Peterson

If you look at the quarters that have come out, the most striking ones are the ones that have very few elements. Something simple that catches the spirit and the heritage and the pride that Idahoans feel in their state.

Mike Journee

You're still in the beginning of the upturn in its long-cycle businesses, and that's why it's projecting very strong earnings momentum for the next several quarters.

Steve Roukis

The greatest proportion, about three-quarters of that number, will be in Africa.

Martin Parry

While the quarter's financials are important, the stock performance keys off the PeopleSoft decision. A resolution will be positive one way or another.

Gary Abbott

Nobody knows exactly how this year is going to play out, ... We do know there was a bubble of spending for applications a year or two ago. The bubble kind of burst and for a few quarters the ERP market [has been] kind of soft. It's a tough environment.

Jeff Henley

We just got on a roll. Twenty-five points is sometimes as much as we score in three quarters.

Bruce Thomas

It's the first game we played all four quarters. We get unfocused sometimes because we have fun, we love to play and we're always laughing. We can use this as a building block.

Scott Krueger

Our emphasis going into the game was to not shoot 3-pointers. The idea was to get inside shots, and we did that in the first and third quarters, but in the second and fourth quarters, we got away from that.

Jamie Mayne

We need to play four quarters of solid basketball. We've played a good half or even three quarters in games, but we haven't closed teams out.

Tom Duffy

Dell should be able -- for the next couple of quarters -- to come in a penny ahead of estimates.

Robert Cihra

We need to go two first quarters, a second and a fourth. That's something that we will continually work on is coming out in the third quarter.

Jim Brooks

With the prospect of relatively slow top-line growth over the next two quarters, we believe the upside in the stock is limited.

William Becklean

Us giving them good field position didn't help. We kept telling them the same thing, to play four quarters. I'm ready to play them again.

John Pease

We're going to have soft quarters, Mike, ... Don't drop the ball. Keep an eye on it, and God will help you through.

Sam Moore

My expectation is the general trend of the next few quarters is for profit growth rates to come down, and it will start by having companies send out that message.

Dorsey Farr

Mr. Wagner has beautiful moments but bad quarters of an hour.

Gioacchino Rossini

We are only three-quarters. Tom is not coming home with us. I am so sorry to have to lose him.

James Loney

Whether SQL or Oracle or another database is your platform of choice, it's likely the big moves that impact ROI beyond integration will be made in the BI and analytics world in the next few quarters.

Tom Siebel

It was fun. We wanted to keep the tempo up. We had enough energy to score 44 points and that carried us for a couple of quarters.

Andre Miller

To hit Mr Brown's forecast now, quarterly growth would have to average around 1.0 percent in the remaining three quarters which looks very unlikely.

Jonathan Loynes

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

Travel in all the four quarters of the earth, yet you will find nothing anywhere. Whatever there is, is only here.

Ramakrishna

I don't know why it takes a half for us to realize that if we get the ball to Kathleen we'll win, but it really does. Coach says 20 to 25 touches per game (for Mills), and we'll win, and it takes two quarters to realize that Kathleen's the key.

Rachel Bishop

I just think this is going to be a game that goes down to the wire. I don't know what the score's going to be, but I think the offense and the defense are going to have to play continually through four quarters. I don't think by the end of the third quarter the game's going to be decided.

Brad Butler

We started out good. If we would have gotten that effort for four quarters I would have been happy.

Jason Brundage

Our goal all year long has been not to give up any double-digit quarters. We've had momentary lapses when we go to sleep or when teams are shooting well. Hopefully, we'll limit those from here on out (in the playoffs).

Jeff Stowers

It's hard for teams who don't see us a lot to get used to the quick pace that we create on defense. We wanted to play hard for four quarters, and that's what we did.

October Harris

I feel like we have to go out and earn respect, and the only way to do that is go out and play hard for four quarters and win.

Jason Allen

Because in recent quarters published estimates have regularly exceeded our guidance. This is increasingly becoming an industry-wide issue.

Dennis Powell

We just have to come out and compete for four quarters, every single play.

Chris Barrett

Probably for him that's his most consistent game. He's had 24 or 20 in (other) games, but he gets them all in one quarter or two quarters. It was a solid night for him.
