Steve Smith

She hadn't thrown all year, so she struggled a bit.

We'd been able to beat them on that pattern most of the night. I'd prefer he would have thrown it to the other side, but the kids played their hearts out.

(Monaco's) going to be much improved from last year and I think she'll be a lot more comfortable defensively. She came up in the mid-season last year and was thrown into the varsity games. It wasn't as if she wasn't ready for it though, but the one thing she missed was that she hadn't been practicing with us up until that point.

It takes 15-20 games to get back to the form where you would be at midseason. Last week was my training camp, basically. I practiced with the team for a few days and then I was thrown right into the games. So I'm in my third week of the season, really. I'm feeling better and better every day.

They said it was full, but it wasn't full. They had paid money to get into the bar, but it wasn't returned after they wouldn't let them in.

Sam Hilburn

I thought Angelo did well considering he was thrown in there with no notice. The one thing about being a backup is you have to prepare like you're about to play. He does a great job of preparing, and (linebackers coach) Don Blackmon does a great job of preparing the backups like starters.

London Fletcher

Conroy Hines

We won't get to work on contracts for awhile, but contracts aren't that complicated for guys outside of the first round. Ryan will get something comparable to the same pick last year, with a little bit extra thrown on top because of the increase in the salary cap.

Steve Kauffman

The home opener isn't going to be any different than any other game we've played this year. It's going to be fun playing at home and I think we are ready to go into the Big Ten season. I believe we're ready and capable to handle anything thrown at us.

Dan Hartleb

We still have an opportunity, but I believe the best opportunity has passed us by.

So now were talking about November.

We're going to get guys thrown out, we're going to get guys picked off, but that's all part of it.

Ken Beck

He was rusty. We hadn't worked him during the week like we should, but he shook it off and threw a good ball game. That's my fault. We've got to throw him during the middle of the week. We've been trying to keep a lot of pressure off his arm because he's thrown so much.

Ron Rushing

We got a little wet. We got blasted, man. We were on top of a sub, on top of a boat, submerged underwater when we get thrown off the sub and the boat. It was winter there, and we were wearing wet suits, but you still get cold and damp. It was intense.

Catherine Bell

We were thrown to the wolves.

Ashley Boehnel

It was a fastball on the inside part of the plate. I was looking for something in be-cause that's where they had thrown a lot to me this weekend. I just stayed within myself and let my hands do the work.

When they're not identified and they're thrown into school systems where they cannot cope, they fail.

That one hit to left field got him. He gave up one, but that's two games in a row he's come out and thrown real well for us.

Robbie Bennett

Women and girls have repeatedly told us stories of being thrown out of their home by boyfriends, husbands and parents who said they would pay for an abortion, but if she has the child she'd be on her own; employers who found pregnancy and parenting incompatible with the job, educators who tell women they can't possibly complete their education if they have a child.

Serrin Foster

This man needs to be thrown in a deep, dark hole and left to rot.

Nancy Fox

He's ahead of everybody else in camp and he has thrown more bullpens than anybody else. By the time he has to leave us, he'll be able to go three innings. That way he should be able to go four innings down there.

Rafael Chaves

I am not interested in picking up crumbs of compassion thrown from the table of someone who considers himself my master. I want the full menu of rights.

Bishop Desmond Tutu

Sam has thrown four outstanding games in a row, and when we can put some offense up early, it's always going to help a good high school pitcher to stay calm and go after them.

John Crumbley

It felt good to be back out there. It felt like my first game in college again. I asked the coach if I could go another inning, but since that was the most pitches I have thrown since a few weeks before the season, the coaches said they didn't want to push me back too fast.

Brody Taylor

We missed that, and I'm sorry we did. The TV, everybody saw it but us. I wish we had the opportunity to talk to (Vick) because that was complete (expletive). ... You bet I would have thrown his ass out.

Meles Zenawi

We've played seven games in eight or nine days with Christmas thrown in there. We are ready for a break.

Doug Evans

We don't have any blazers who can throw it 90, 88, or even 85 (mph). But they've thrown strikes and they've been able to move the ball in and out and they think they can win. We've played pretty solid defense throughout the year. They're growing. I don't know what they're going to do, but they're a team.

Floyd Ciruti

She knows she needs to do a little of everything and she does exactly what we need. She is fantastic about handling every defense thrown at her.

Courter Smith

The word 'blessing' is a word that is thrown around too much sometimes, but it has truly been a blessing how the opportunities have opened up for me at Kinston and Rochelle.

Perry Tyndall

These animals did not ask to be born, abandoned or put to sleep, then thrown into the garbage.

Dianne Morales

He's thrown the ball real well, ... He's done a very good job in camp. I'm pleased with what he has done.

Casey Cavanaugh

You wonder how many times something good was thrown away?

Jim Harlan

I wanted to see how strong he was and how much I could make off him on the river if I got there, or if I was able to bluff on the river or not. If he had re-raised me (on the turn), I'd have thrown it away. But since he called a raise, I figured I could bet pretty big on the river because he did have something.

Layne Flack

How many a man has thrown up his hands at a time when a little more effort, a little more patience would have achieved success?

Elbert Hubbard
