Ivan Lendl
I wouldn't say it's a slam-dunk, but we've found fish everywhere we've fished. We fished Possession Bar on Sunday morning and didn't get a legal fish, so we went over to Double Bluff and did OK. But I heard Possession did come on at the same time, on the low tide.

We have 16 players who are the No. 1 player in their country. The cutoff to get into (the tournament) was No. 68 (in the ATP rankings). No tournament outside of a Grand Slam has that kind of quality and depth.
Steve Bellamy

[His family, his friends, Bridgette, they all want him to play one more Grand Slam event.] I want it to be up to him, but, just personally, I'm going to miss watching him play, ... And I'd love for Christian to be there once, even if he'd never remember.

Ray Palmer
When I looked at the men's draw, I thought, 'This draw was much better than we ever expected to get in men's tennis the week before the grand slam'. Would we like to have Federer, Agassi and Roddick here? Of course, but it is not feasible. We have been honest from the get-go they wouldn't be here, but you can't stop people from hoping.

Iveta Benesova
You can't slam dunk a tax cut package the size they're talking about.

There is a gradual move away from concentration, but the numbers still are really small. The ebullience that many companies had 12 months ago has been disabused by now. Advertisers have found that branding plays a role and coming up with a business model in this new world is not a slam dunk.
Charles Buchwalter
Winning a big goal is always very difficult. She had some amazing wins. She was No. 1 in singles and doubles. But the Grand Slam is something special and it's difficult. . . . Now she finally did it. So I hope many more will come.
Marc Dehous
For Amelie, the goals this year would be: First, no injury. Then maybe it is time to get the number one ranking back. And then to win another Slam. I think for Amelie her dream would be Paris.

Alex Evans
Don't ever slam a door; you might want to go back.
Don Herold
Morales is a kid that gets limited at bats but he picked up three hits and the big grand slam. Clay (Glover) hit the ball hard four times today and we need to find a way to get him in the lineup. We have three or four guys that are really (designated hitters), so we have to be able to get his bat out there on a daily basis.
Mark Pollard

John Tamargo

Dhulsini De Zoysa
I had a walk-off grand slam in high school against Royal, but it is definitely a little bit more special to do it in college. I just needed a base hit to win the game, but obviously a home run is a little more dramatic.

Charles Gray
Every area was really successful. It was a slam-dunk.

William Gardner

Ross Albert
I distinctly remember Jay Gibbons hit the grand slam off me at Baltimore. I think I ended up giving up nine runs in that game. It was just a nightmare game for me. That was a good example of the snowball effect. If things go bad in the first inning, I don't want it to snowball it even more.

Richard Yamarone
They [England] played at their best and left nothing for an opponent which had won the Grand Slam last year.

Bruce Cain
We could've won it after either slam, simply by saying (Teague) couldn't continue. But that's not the way we want to do things.

Jason Brandt
Project Grand Slam.
Garry Marshall
It?s because I?m in America, ... It?s enough for me that Russian people know me. French people also know me. In America, I need to do something good, like play great in a Grand Slam or prove (himself) in a tournament like this on TV. Tennis is not important in America like it is in Europe.
Nikolay Davydenko
This was a rather lengthy and complicated process, ... Anything of this magnitude isn't going to be a slam-dunk process.

Jeff Black
We had a lead then we gave up a grand slam and we just didn't execute after that. San Jacinto has a very good ball club and when you play programs that are good, you have to execute if you expect to win and we just didn't do that today.
Chase Tidwell
The act would slam shut the federal courthouse doors to religious minority parents, school children and others who seek nothing more than to have their religious and free speech claims heard before the courts most uniquely suited to entertain such claims.
Marty Durand

Joe Durant
I'm not a big sports fan, but I love it when they "slam dunk." That's sexy.

It's tough for any high school team to come up with six pitchers or more. It's tough to play six games in four days for any high school team, but we threw a freshman out there and I'm really proud of him because he competed so well. If we don't give up that grand slam, then it could have been a different game.
Glen Anderson
I think New Zealand can do the grand slam.
