David Benelli

I think it will be a great game, but I can't root against the Buckeyes. Ohio State is pretty deep and has an awfully good defense. I'm going to take the Buckeyes.

Jimmy Henson

Preston Parker

People have come to understand that they can influence the sports or the outcome of a game by the behavior that they initiate in the stands or in public. If it's done in a positive way, rooting for your team, that's well and good.

At the root of these problems lies political will of the global community, especially the rich.

Festus Mogae

Shoot, I've never been in the playoffs, so I'm running out of time, and I know that I need to rely on those four guys who are out there every day. So it doesn't do me any good to root against them or beat them up or do anything to them. What helps them helps me, too.

Jeff Cirillo

She's rooting for me. Last time I checked, I pay the mortgage.

Nick Latorre

To compete against George Mason twice a year, and to know those guys personally, you can't help but root for them. They're showing everybody how good our conference really is, and that's why we're all proud of what they've done. It's like we have a little piece of it.

Herb Courtney

I'm just excited to be playing at that level for that team. I kind of know the guys who are playing. I can root for them. But in the same respect, I'm just excited to be playing with them next year.

Ryan Powers

I think in general, you need a bad guy to have someone to root against and I think kids understand a story more clearly if there's an evil element for them to cheer against and to root for the good guys.

Johnathan Frakes

Today I just ate manioc (a starchy root) with salt, and tomorrow I don't know what I'll do.

We are not seeing a lot of action out of Augusta at all. We do have our local problems, but Augusta is at the root of most of them.

Walter Reed

We're educating everyone: public, criminals, but also people who may've had the misfortune of being attacked or something. They know how to leave behind a trail of evidence: they have to pull somebody's hair out by the root so that you leave a skin tag, and that's where you get the DNA.

Marg Helgenberger

You can't build your way out of this. We need to start hacking away at the root causes of dependency.

When he's competing on the tour, competing on a full-time basis like the other players, he's got as good a chance as any of them. And he's such an easy guy to root for.

Evelyn Waugh

I can't root against the Patriots.

Eugene Profit

There's something at the root of our love-hate relationship with celebrity that I think has the makings, if you could do it in a really substantive way, of a great modern American novel. And it's something I know a lot about, and so I feel like that's the book that I should write.

Ethan Hawke

We found that these guys are down-to-earth and have the same struggles you and I have. I'll still root for my favorite teams. I'll still root for the Eagles on Monday night. But when you do this, you're reminded that these guys are more than just a uniform. They're people.

Erin Flynn

You can't help but to think about it, that you're going to have a lot of people that probably know you or have known about you that, even fans that's not rooting for you, but they know I represent New Jersey, they can identify where I'm at, and looking up to an individual like myself who came from the inner city and who made it.

Eric Williams

Propaganda has a bad name, but its root meaning is simply to disseminate through a medium, and all writing therefore is propaganda for something. It's a seeding of the self in the consciousness of others.

Elizabeth Blackwell

The most effective strain is not always best at competing for nodules. Is it the plant or the microbe that determines this? Have we bred out of crop plants the ability to choose their root bacteria?

Are you complete in yourself? [The root] answers, "No, my life is in the trunk and the branches and the leaves. Keep the branches stripped of leaves and I shall die." So it is with the great tree of being. Nothing is completely and merely individual.

Edward Everett Hale

The players worked all year to earn the right; it's been a special group of guys. I don't know if it's the same thing as coming down to root for a game.

Ed Crow

Everyone is rooting for Tom DeLay.
