Mark Derosa

I think that's an accurate statement. Everyone grew together and I think with that they got to know each other not only as players but as people. The camaraderie as a teammate builds and then you become a strong unit.

Jim Anderson

We're not disappointed in A.J. at all. He's our teammate and he's our brother. You never want to see one of teammates get in a situation like that. I haven't had the chance to speak with him, but I would like a chance to before the game, just to let him know that we're all with him. I'm pretty sure he knows that already though.

Kyler Hall

The young men who participated in this generous act of support show their maturity, compassion and camaraderie for a teammate and friend. Their parents, coaches, teachers and community can be proud of all of them. I know I am.

Gary Henderson

He's talented, but he approaches every drill as it if was his last, ... Add to that he is an unbelievable teammate. You will not find one guy, as long as he is here, who will ever be upset with him except the guy who is trying to box him out in practice.

Lorenzo Romar

I felt a part of it in some ways, not as a teammate, but as a former player who spent his whole career with the Red Sox. I always root for them and I hope they do well.

Bob Stanley

That's the way I play, ... I like to push the ball and attack the rim and put as much pressure on the defense as I can. Sometimes you get to the line and sometimes you can break the defense down and get a teammate an easy basket. Either way it's a good result for us.

Antonio Daniels

A lot of guys were open today and I just made a lot of extra passes when I could have shot, but I found a teammate who had a better shot.

Patrick Sparks

I'll admit it, what I did was wrong - not showing up was wrong - but I ain't saying what I would've done if I showed up would've been right. Being that I didn't show up I didn't put my hands on nobody. How a teammate, a supposed friend, would go to a coach and tell him don't put me in a game, I would've done something seriously wrong to him.

Kwame Brown

Dave was a great teammate. He was probably the most skilled player on the team. Whenever I scored a goal, it seemed as though it was always on a great pass from Dave.

Paul Williamson

He's not super quick, but he's a smart player. He's a great teammate for everyone.

Dana Greene

Kristopher Smith

I trusted my teammate. Even though he didn't make the shot, I still love him. I loved playing for this team.

Kadero Terrell

I almost started to cry. The first thing I thought was he was dead. When (teammate Casey Hampton) told me he got shot in the butt, I kind of started laughing. It was a big relief to me.

James Farrior

I don't plan on transferring. Last year. I had a lot of ups and downs as far as them constantly losing and I was unable to play. But me and another teammate, Stephanie Merlo, we made an agreement. She's going to stick it out; I'm going to stick it out.

Quanitra Hollingsworth

I feel bad for Ben because he is a such hard worker. He's such a great teammate; he always has a team first attitude.

Anthony Maestranzi

He's been here a long time. As a teammate, we wish him the best of luck but I guess there'll be more opportunity (for the remaining d-men).

Jordan Leopold

He is an unbelievable human being and probably the best teammate I have ever had. I want my son to grow up and be just like Dan Wilson.

Raul Ibanez

It felt like the whole season came down to that last 30 seconds. We needed to stay aggressive and not foul. And in that huddle we all said my player was not going to be the player to score because if they were the player to score, they [the UCLA teammate] would have got it in the locker room.

Nikki Blue

The chance to play as a freshman, and with an old teammate - it just felt like the right choice.

Sam Zeglinski

The thing is, she so deserves it. She's quiet. Puts her nose down. But as a teammate of hers, she's the person you can always sort of look to and count on being there. She's the (underdog you) cheer for.

Julie Parisien

When you see him up close, you see all the little things he does and as a teammate it is appreciated.

Jonathan Toews

A teammate's a teammate whether he's a freshman or not. It doesn't matter if we know him as a best friend or just as a recruit coming in. We're there for him. John's got a quiet personality to begin with so it's hard to judge, but I think he's holding up all right.

David Walters

We're playing so much more together and communicating to each other better, ... They trust if they kick the ball to a certain spot, a teammate is going to be there.

Robert Cullen

We're going to miss Crock. I'm sure whoever starts instead of him will do fine, but he was a good teammate. He was a good guy to have back there.

Andra Davis

I think it was my own teammate — I think it was Cookie. When you get hit that hard, you don't know.

Kwame Brown

Mark brings so much more to a team than just statistics, ... First and foremost, he brings energy, and a tremendous work ethic. Plus, he is a good teammate and a great guy to have in the locker room.

Kevin Mchale

She's a leader, and she doesn't have to say much to be one. She's been selected as our teammate of the year for several years, and that's something that's voted on by the players.

Jim Kerr

Naturally, I want to show up well against my teammate.

Scott Speed

You couldn't ask for a better teammate. And I think all of the other guys would say the same thing.

Tal Wold

She can do so many things with the ball, and scoring is only one of them. In fact, all of our players are so unselfish when it comes to getting points. Tiffany Daniels, who doesn't get to play much, passed up an open shot to feed her teammate Ally Hearn. That's just the way our girls play, which makes them a success, win or lose.

Tim Holmes

We have great team chemistry and I think a lot of our success can be attributed to how well we all get along. We aren't just teammate, we're more importantly friends.

Paul Dolan

I'm thrilled. My best friend is my teammate.

Jordan Beaver

He's been a good friend and a good teammate for a long time. I wish him the best of luck.

Troy Brown

These kids are just totally unselfish. They don't care to score and if you watch them when they make that pass and their teammate scores -- they've got a smile on their face. They're happy for their teammates.

Gary Castine

That we have a teammate who may not be with us next year. I'm still not sure what's going on or how it's going to end up.

Jon Copper

Toni's a good guy and has been a good teammate.

Jordan Leopold

It really wasn't that special, ... It was just helping out a fellow teammate. I knew the cornerback was going to be in a jam with the inside receiver running a little stick route, and I just tried to make a play and help him out.

Karlos Dansby

Deke gave one of the best speeches I've ever heard from a teammate inside a locker room. It was pretty touching. He got the point across to everybody.

Nathan Bilyeu

He is a good teammate because he could have cried about not starting. But he just does his job whatever role coach (Byron Scott) puts him in.

Kirk Snyder

The teams that do the best job of putting personal agendas aside are the successful teams. It's not easy. That's why it's hard being a good teammate, but everyone has that choice.

Ray Allen

That's the benefit of having a teammate like T.J. who can penetrate and pitch the ball. I told him, if you get the ball to me, I'll make the shot. It was a great pass and follow through.

Bobby Simmons

You don't want your teammate to be hurt, first and foremost. It's a balance, because you want to play, you want to be the guy in there but you want all the guys to be healthy, and you want what's best for the team. We'll see how that goes as the week goes on and see what happens.

Tommy Maddox

I'm living with the family of a teammate. I want to stay in America because I like the swimming program in the USA. There are many Olympians here.

Sho Koba

Everyone was jumping on top of me. Unfortunately my leg got caught up in a weird position, and I started to scream. Joe Gramke, a teammate who also had played at Moeller, started pulling off the people. Then I got out. That field goal was the greatest thrill of my life.

Harry Oliver

[Snyder] was a great guy and the perfect teammate. He's a guy that you look at and play with you just respect he worked so hard -- harder than anybody -- and that's what I take most from him.

Dany Heatley

He made a big save there. I think it hit his chest. When you're teammates come an bail out you out and I was kind of sitting on my butt . . . it's huge to get that from a teammate.

Adam Munro

We lost a great teammate. But I was also excited because the guys coming in can help us get to where we need to go, and that's to win a championship.

Dwyane Wade

It felt like the world was against Robbie tonight. He wasn't getting his footwork right on his shot. Then when we told him to pump fake and set up a teammate, he traveled.

Jeff Houston

It's definitely something we can lean back on. I can't describe what it's like [to see a teammate hit 3 after 3 like Ray did during that four-minute span in the second half]. I'm so used to it.

Will Sheridan

A.J. is a great guy inside. He's got a great heart. He was a great teammate. He wants to win. That's what I like about him. He made a mistake. We all make mistakes. Hopefully he'll learn from it.

Lenny Harris

He's being a good teammate. The Jose we're seeing (in matches) is the Jose I see in practice all of the time. He's a good player.

Mike Wilton

I think he would appreciate someone on his team who isn't afraid to give a hard foul in the playoffs. It's different when someone's your teammate versus someone who's your opponent.

Jason Collins

[Teammate] Ed Macauley and I would come back to our hotel from Mass on Sunday morning, and some guys with pushed-in noses would be sitting in lobby chairs watching us. We'd deliberately limp or put our arms in slings and watch them scatter to the phones, imagining them calling their bookies telling them we were injured.

Bob Cousy

I didn't know what to do. I didn't know (whether) to run and jump or hug a teammate. So I just fell to the ground. We worked so hard for this. Hopefully, we can start a streak of our own.

David Castillo

I?m going to try to gain some weight over the summer. Work on my handle a little bit, work at shooting off the dribble, and work on being a better teammate.

Kyle Swanston

He's the ultimate teammate. He comes off the bench and gives us everything. He's very consistent.

Al Klunick

A good teammate and could always make you laugh, even something ain't going right.

John Kehoe

Thomas is very well-respected by his teammates. He's got a great work ethic. He's very dedicated. He's a great teammate. He's a great leader.

Keith Cooper

She has a great mentality. You have to think, 'That's my ball' when it goes up. Even if you have to take it away from your own teammate.

Haywood Boston

We don't get the squeeze down, and we've been trying to tell the kids all year, 'Battle through the mistakes and pick up a teammate when they don't execute,' and that was huge for us for Perry to clutch up.

Mike Gomez

You can't have players that are exactly alike. You need a player to keep things steady and be able to set up his teammate to be the more aggressive put-away player.

Bob Barthold

I'm a big Steve Nash fan, have been since he's been in the league. I wanted to play with Amaré (Stoudemire) and Jimmy (Jackson, a Miami teammate). It was the fit and the opportunity to be alongside Kurt Thomas and Amaré. They made a great run, especially during the regular season. It definitely helped to have a great chance of getting out of the West and making a championship run.

Brian Grant

He's our teammate and our brother. We're right here for him.

Kyler Hall

I think we are both still learning off of each other so much. It's nice to have a teammate that's your brother. In racing, you always kind of have to watch your teammate closely and strive to be better than him. But when it's your brother, it's not like that. We're still competitive with each other, but we're not trying to beat each other-we're trying to make each other better.

Brian Frisselle

The past couple of weeks the coaches have been stressing staying low and getting on the post. My teammate got the ball past their goalie, and I was there to put it in.

Stephanie Hoyer

Junior wants to be the oldest driver at DEI. That's kind of one of the things he wants. I think the main thing we're looking for is a good teammate for Junior and Martin.

Richie Gilmore

She's such a great skier and a great girl. Just a great teammate.

Sarah Schleper

He was never in any trouble here. He was a good teammate, a fit-in kind of player. I have complete faith in the American justice system. Whatever the truth is, it will be found out.

Jack Moran

The Gulfstream/PKV Racing team's race was about like we qualified. I qualified behind my teammate and finished behind my teammate, but the crew did a great job in the pits, which helped us pick up some positions.

Jimmy Vasser

People look at those tattoos and think he's just some kid from the street. What they don't know is that Ray is an extremely hard worker and an unselfish teammate. He's determined to do bigger and better things with his life.

Jerod Uldall

A good teammate and a good friend. He's been real instrumental in helping me out. He's a real calm guy and that helps calm me down out there. He knows every position out there.

Duane Brown

He's a teammate. You're supportive of your teammates.

David Newhan

It's too bad to see a teammate go down and a good friend like that. It's unfortunate, but I'm just going to do the things I've been doing, that's working hard and working on preparation.

Alex Auld

He was a teammate. It would be like the catcher on the baseball team talking about what a jerk the pitcher was. It's just an unwritten rule that you don't do that.

John Tesh

If you play up on her she beats you. If you play off of her, she just kills you on dribble penetration. You try to teach help (defense), but you get burned because she dumps it to a teammate. She's got great court vision. She is the quarterback, she gets them running.

Natalie Woods

Not to a teammate with as much as hype and expectations as he has.

Matt Berezay

I think he's a confident guy. He just needs that mind-set that, 'I am capable of doing something special,' just that sheer determination. He's a great worker, a great teammate, has a great aptitude to take instruction.

Bud Black

I feel that sport tests every emotion. You have your highs, you have your lows, you win, you lose. You can get frustrated with a teammate, but then you have camaraderie with them. It tests all emotions in a different atmosphere.

Kirstin Peahl

She's been one of those people that has been able to play both sports, keep her grades up and then she, (teammate) Mandy (Lance) and (team chaplain) Todd Allen have started a Wednesday night youth group. All of her ducks are in a row.

Jack Childress

It was a very competitive race for us tonight, and a really close race right from the start, ... We came away with a 6th-place finish and were only 3.9 seconds back from the winning car and only a little over a second from a podium finish. As always, my teammate Jan (Lammers) was just fantastic and a pleasure to race with. The team's performance was outstanding as well.

Milka Duno

He was just a wonderful person, a jokester, professional at his job, a great partner and teammate. We were partners on every mission. (I remember) his warm heart and his excitement to be at work every day. He always had something new for you when he walked in the door of the office.

Tim Baldwin

I think it shows in PKV, with myself and my teammate Cristiano da Matta on the second row, it shows a lot of hard work has paid off, at least for qualifying. I do know also we need to do a lot of work for our race setups tonight. We weren't all that happy in today's afternoon session. But, you know, all credit to the guys in the shop, they did a great job.

Jimmy Vasser

He was always a good teammate. Hopefully as a team we can move on from it and put some closure to it.

Jeff Horner

Everybody wants to win and had all the ability to win. And I think the push of another teammate of yours is good because you can get slack, you can think you've got it figured out but in order to stay on top you need to keep striving for the best.

Doug Richert

There was one black cloud hanging over this win and that is the departure of Quantrill. He brought a lot more to the table than his throwing. He had been to where we hope to go. He was the epitome of a great teammate.

Mark Sweeney

Kids coming out of high school are coached better today. Nothing against the coaches I had in high school; I thought they were great coaches. But everything is so specialized now. I watch Gary Rankin (Riverdale head football coach). He was a teammate of mine at Tennessee. (Riverdale) has a different game plan for everybody they played.

David Parsons

I'm not going to be able to play and all I can do is support my team, ... That's what you do as a teammate; you help your team out. There's still a role that I can play in our success in winning this game. It might not be on the field Sunday, but it could be on the sideline.

Antonio Gates

I'm pleased that he made that decision. Obviously, I'd love to have him as a [Team USA] teammate because he's dominant and a competitor. But I think he's taking the right approach and looking at the big picture.

Chipper Jones

I gotta go with my teammate.

Dale Davis

It hit me really hard because (White) has been my teammate for so long. I've accepted it now and am taking responsibility for stepping up and making up for her being gone.

Sophie Russell

This is a sad day for the Minnesota Twins, Major League Baseball and baseball fans everywhere. I loved Kirby deeply. A tremendous teammate, Kirby will always be remembered for his never-ending hustle, infectious personality, trademark smile and commitment to the community.

Carl Pohlad

To see a teammate put her heart on the floor like that is really touching. We struggled a little when she was out and when she came back in, it really shifted the momentum.

Jenny Gilbertson

Lindsey is part of a group that has come in and changed the face of women's basketball here. She's a great young woman and a super teammate.

Dan Muscatell

For what I lacked, (Richard Hendrix) was there. He was a good teammate for that.

Jermareo Davidson

She's a trooper. She'll push through the hard times and keep going for the team. … She's always happy and never lets her emotions get in the way. She's a good teammate.

Sarah Cooper

[Before the game, the veteran Morton pulled Ponder aside, promising his young teammate that great things were in store.] He said, 'We're going to do something never done in Giants' history. You're going to score and I'm going to score,'Ÿ ... And we did it.

Willie Ponder

Seeing Paul go is a really tough loss for us. It's tough to take because of the person and teammate he has been.

Mark Sweeney

The five-on-three, me and (teammate) Brendan (Morrison) got mixed up. It was a bad goal from our part, obviously. But we didn't play good enough to beat these guys.

Mattias Ohlund

Michael has always been able to beat his teammate.

Willi Weber

[Manager Terry Francona saluted both, saying Embree was] a big part of what happened here, ... one of the best guys and a good teammate.

Mark Bellhorn

Mired in a batting slump, Bonds sat in the locker room and complained about his uncharacteristic struggle to get his offense going. I can't put my finger on the problem, said Barry aloud. I'm struggling. Can't buy a hit. Bonds then looked up and noticed a chronically poor-hitting teammate nearby. Bonds turned to him and said something like - you must feel like this all the time.

Larry Elder

Repeating as Central Division champions is one of our major objectives for the coming year and we have a solid nucleus of players that knows what it takes to make that happen. There isn't a player on this team that won't go out of their way to help a teammate in need, to accomplish that goal. It is the Thunder way.

Stephen Bennett

We miss him as a teammate. But we could have won these games (Notre Dame and Wisconsin) with or without him.

Jason Avant

It's nowhere near that. This is different because we all know the money and he obviously deserves to get paid well more than that ($380,000). He's a good guy, he's a great teammate, he's a great team player, he's a good leader and everybody likes the guy. You can't be upset with him. We all understand the business part of it. I can't speak for everybody, but I don't think anybody is upset.

Justin Peelle

We are all very happy for how Ana did. Our normal teammate is currently in Italy. She did a great job for us.

Dennis Lane

It would be neat to play against my old teammate.

Josh Lovett

It makes it that much better. It's real exciting to go with a teammate and a friend.

Tyler Rice

Anytime you have a guy like Mike go down, everybody is nervous. You're concerned about him as a friend and a teammate. He's been such a huge part of this team. We want him healthy.

Stu Barnes

She's a good teammate, a good person in the water, and has a great attitude. If she goes, relaxes and has a good time I think she'll be fine.

Maureen Travers

I know it's going to be emotional for everyone, because Fred is such a great friend and such a great teammate. Aside from the emotion, it's going to be happiness. Because circumstances were such that, hey, the organization made a decision and that's just the way it goes. There's no hard feelings, either way.

Mark Madsen

He'll bend over backwards for a teammate. He'll do whatever it takes. I mean, he's a senior on the scout team. He's busting his butt every day. You don't find that much around the country.

Paul Davis

(The penalty) was a misunderstanding on the second hole. I was pleased with the way I played. I didn't shoot lights out but I'm happy to be going to districts again. It's nice a teammate (Karsten Reis) made it too so I won't be going alone. Overall, I'm pretty pleased.

David Goodman

I don't mind when they burp and spit around me, ... It tells me they think of me as their teammate.

Katie Hnida

She doesn't put herself above anybody else on the team. She's a good teammate. Sometimes kids as good as she is look down on their teammates. She's never done that.

Jim Emerson

I don't know what to say. A lot of people say I don't have heart because I don't play with emotion like teammate Chris Sharp. People say I play casual, and sometimes I think that too when I see myself. I'm kind of just out there. But I can change that.

Jesse Lobue

Coach always tells us to get them off balance. See your driving hole, and if they come, dish it off to your teammate.

Ivory Latta

He's awesome. First and foremost, he's a great person and a great teammate. He's very supportive when I get down on myself. (All of our veterans) have been successful professionals for a long time. I tell you, even if you had success in college, you have to listen to them.

Ronny Turiaf

After a decade of starring in this league, Dikembe established himself as one of the league's top reserves last season. Deke gives us rebounding and defense off the bench and he also serves as a personal mentor to Yao Ming. He is a valuable contributor as well as a great teammate.

Carroll Dawson

I put a lot of weight into being a good teammate as opposed to talent. From the minute he got here, he didn't big-time anybody. He got online. Checked out our team, knew our roster, knew our record and did a little research. I think guys respected that.

Paul Woolpert

We had so many young kids and it was Vaughn?s job to hold them together. He was voted a captain by our guys for a reason. He?s a great teammate. He does all the little things.

Jon Mcfarland

It wasn't a good feeling for anybody. As a friend and teammate, you want him to be OK and healthy and in the lineup. Who knows what's going to happen? But obviously he's a huge part of our team, he's our leader, and we want him in there.

Stu Barnes

Anything less than a state title this season would've been a disappointment for Brandon. He's a great wrestler and an even better person and teammate. He's a kid who's paid his dues and made all the sacrifices. If anybody earned a state championship, it's Brandon.

Mark Malawey

There's a standard of behavior in the locker room, on the floor and everywhere else that I think you have to uphold as a good teammate that just isn't there. I'm not going to tolerate it. Not from Salim or anyone else on this team.

Mike Woodson

I think I've come pretty far. I've learned a lot. I've become a better player, a more all-around player and teammate. It's been a good four years.

Amy Sanders

He has always been on DEI's short list. He was one of (Dale Earnhardt's) favorite drivers, and if we could ever get Matt, he would probably be our first choice for a teammate for Junior, ... But he indicated to us he was going to try to work something out where he is.

Richie Gilmore

Why speed check when everybody else is riding strong? I'm mad at a teammate for doing that when he's got a teammate right on his butt. I came in here wanting to win this thing. I'm pretty ticked.

Nate Holland

Because, quite frankly, I don't know if Randy Moss is still on the field with me as a teammate at that time. He may be in the locker room when the game is on the line.

Tom Jackson

Playing for my dad has made me a better teammate and team player, helped me to play hard all the time, and has made me into a better overall person.

Rob Schroeder

He goes out and plays hard every day, ... Lately, he's been hitting gaps, a lot of triples and doubles. He's definitely fun to watch and a great teammate, always upbeat. He's a catalyst for this team. When he's going good, he's always on base.

Ben Johnson (baseball Player)

He's not aloof at all. He likes to laugh and joke. There is not an aura of 'I'm better.' He is a concerned teammate.

Bob Lieber

A.J. is A.J.. People love to hate him. They don't realize he plays hard. That's what I admire about any teammate.

Carl Everett

He's a real professional that's a good human being and helps as a great teammate. When you encompass all those things, he's a real quality player but more so quality person.

Barry Trotz

The last few weeks we've been focusing on team ball. If the guy's open, get it to him. Trust your teammate.

Nick Rhodes

Leah has been the epitome of the most selfless teammate you can have. She cares more about the scoreboard and how we're doing as a team. You can't replace her.

Erin Higgins

I did a little practice. I watched the college dunk contest on TV. I've always played H-OR-S-E. I've just never won before because (former teammate) Ashley Gates was too good of a shooter.

Erica Simpson

Somebody's dream was taken away. I try to put myself in those shoes, and I can't. I really try, and I can't. He's still a part of us and he's with us. In our minds, he's an Olympian. He's our teammate.

Eric Bernotas

He's a good teammate. To see him on the court today, it's an amazing feeling because you just know how much better our team's going to get.

Fred Nelson

Kenny won't be intimidated by the kids and the kids won't be intimidated by Kenny. With all of his experience and the type of person he is, Kenny is about the perfect teammate for those guys.

Eddie Wood

Kirby was the ultimate teammate. He had the ability to bring a team together.

Ziff Sistrunk
