The only way to fight this is to do exactly what we have done when it came to violence.

That does not change the attitude, so you have to go into a sporting sanction.

Early, I thought our protection and the things we did were good. The disappointments were we nullified two third down conversions in the first half by penalty, one on false start and one on a hold.

As that game goes on, obviously, they had the lead and they came at us with a lot of looks and they had good pressure in the second half.

Tim Barrera

It is a great opportunity for our players to compete in what should be a fun tournament.

But I'll tell you what we do have: A team that's going to the AFC Championship Game. All them big-time offenses, you know where they're at? Home watching us.

David Gallop

We don't run the game for betting. To have it regulated to suit punters would see the tail wagging the dog.

Byron Scott

You hope, sooner or later, the young guys understand and get it. When you have a lead like that, you can't come out in the third quarter and think the game is over. Maybe a loss like this, when we know we should have won the game, that will do it.

A lot of the films I like are more than fantasies - they're movies fascinated by the technology of space exploration, and they try to honor the laws of physics. I watched the Gregory Peck movie 'Marooned' over and over when I was a kid.

Alfonso Cuaron

When you work with kids, people tell you to be very delicate, but that's the last thing you should do with kids. They feel patronized if you're like that. They just want you to be normal.
