That was a really nice piece of hitting by John. He's not a guy who waits on a pitch really well. He kind of gets out on his front foot a little. He made a great adjustment staying back and driving that ball to right field. It's a good sign he's maturing into a quality hitter.
Dale Cutsforth
I think Sam Faber showed today why to my money she's the best freshman maybe in the country. Certainly she's the best freshman in our league. She's got some of the best moves you will ever see.

Amit Srivastava
He has real poise with the puck, so, when he gets it, he doesn't panic. That's probably the biggest key for him. He doesn't feel pressure to move it because there's pressure applied. He waits for the right play to happen and he passes the puck so darned well. When there is an opportunity, he makes that one pass and we're out of the zone.
Randy Hillier
We found out through the storm that time waits for no man.
Thomas Sullivan

Georges Clemenceau
I'm playing devil's advocate here, (but) if everybody waits around, there may not be a next time. If we don't get much support on this one here, (promoters Bob Arum and Gary Shaw) may feel like the potential for the rescheduled event might be damaged, that some luster may have been taken off.
Lester Bedford

I started in theater 25 years ago and became fascinated and obsessed with an American maverick named Robert Wilson. I was also a huge fan of Tom Waits.

David Coulter
With GPRS coming in, there will be an explosion of wireless data because it's going to be faster than desktop narrow band.
