Our family has gotten a lot of letters and cards from people who have lost children in a variety of ways. The biggest thing is, it's not as rare as we would think.

People can get out of the homosexual lifestyle; those people exist. I spoke at their convention just a few weeks ago. There were hundreds of them, now happily married, now with families of their own.

David Castillo

People have always said I was a tough player. But that kid's a tough SOB, I tell you what.

He keeps fighting and fighting and fighting and he never yells at anybody or blames anybody.

As a team, we had a real good spring. Guys swung the bats real well, then all of a sudden everybody went into a slight batting slump together and right now they seem to be working their way out of that and hitting the ball consistently. We've hit some balls hard and haven't had any luck with the hits falling in, but now they're starting to fall in and that's the difference in winning.

Joe Lobendahn

As an individual, my goal is, of course, to have more (tackles) than I had last year. I still need to get an interception -- that's one of my goals, too ... and a touchdown, too. Honestly, as a defense, you're going to see us running to the ball more, everyone just swarming the ball.

Mike McCue

As an entrepreneur, in many ways it's like looking into the crystal ball for what my company will hopefully go through as it starts to think about bigger challenges - scaling internationally, getting ready to go public, and all those different things.

As for going on the show, I would not have minded one bit to meet him face to face and look him in the eye, ... But I feel the deck is stacked on that one and the show is Dr. Phil, not Jerry Springer. The title is ?Falsely Accused,? not?Guilty as Sin.?

Ken Baker

The big thing was he threw strikes, and I was very pleased. That?s the name of the game when you?re pitching. It was good for us to see. He?s pitched a little bit over the last couple years. He needs to get out there and get the feel of starting a game, knowing it?s going to be his game. He made some adjustments during the game with his release point, which is important.

Jim Gabella

The big thing is throwing consistent strikes. If our guys can do that, they're going to have a chance to succeed. For the most part we did a good job of that. Cody in that last inning struggled a little bit with his command, settled down and made some adjustments and got them out.

Mike Lamb

Bagwell doesn't have much left -- only $15 million US on next year's contract. I don't know whether Houston will use him here or go with Berkman.

Jeff Fatt

Back then the shows were maybe 50 or 60 minutes, whereas now, they're like an hour and 20 minutes. We've cut it back to two shows a day instead of four. That makes it a bit more manageable.

It would be a phenomenal upset for us to go real deep in this tournament. The conference tournaments were created to make money and give teams hope. The Big 12 can make the money, and we'll have the hope.

Vinny Prospal

That's not the way we should be playing at this time of the year.

She set about preparing her supper. It would have to be one of those classically simple meals, the sort that French peasants are said to eat and that enlightened English people sometimes enjoy rather self-consciously - a crusty French loaf, cheese, and lettuce and tomatoes from the garden.
