contact earn last maybe played remember respect tough work
There were some tough calls. I don't remember us getting the benefit. Even the last play. There's contact on that last play and it's OK. We make contact and it's a foul. We played well enough and I thought we would earn the respect of the officials. Maybe it didn't work out that way.
destiny good hard sure
It's disappointing, but Chaparral tied, which bails us out a little bit. We still have our destiny in our hands. We just have to make sure we come out and play hard for 80 minutes, and things will be all right. We have a good team.
extremely face happy playing surprise thursday
It's a little surprise to us, and it's extremely disappointing that we're playing on Thursday and not Friday. But, at the end of the day, let's face it, we're happy to be in the tournament.
adjust areas convention easier large move people separate
(Comdex) got so large it had to move into other convention halls. If (CES) does it right, I don't think it will be a problem. Having the separate (theme) areas so people know where to go, it's easier for people to adjust what they want to see.
competition difference east level playing tournament york
It's similar, because the level of competition is there. It's going to be very intense, but the Big East tournament in New York is a very big deal. The only difference is you're playing different teams.
face good last ready talented understand
I know on paper, (tonight's game) may not look like a very good contest, but we're going to be more than ready to face them. I don't understand why they are (in last place). I think they're a talented team.
authority authorized contracts enter people resulted shortcuts took trying
Most, if not all, of these people down there were trying to do the right thing. They were under a lot of pressure, and they took a lot of shortcuts that may have resulted in a lot of waste. And they may have abused their authority to enter into contracts that they were not authorized to do.
anywhere
This little Tundra would go anywhere it wanted to go.
attack death fell penalty shows smear
It shows that the death penalty smear attack fell on its face.
communication lack
There was lack of communication and there was lack of coordination.
cool created finish needed terribly
I just think that we were not as cool as we needed to be in the first half. But it's not terribly worrisome to me that we weren't able to finish those opportunities. The big thing is we created those opportunities.
attitude commented fun great teams
They had a really fun time. The other teams commented on how great our attitude was.
giving nobody
It was not pretty, but nobody was giving in.
bit farther guys whose
Getting to the semifinals for a lot of guys that were there, it wasn't enough. We would like to go farther this year. It's going to come down to whose got the most heart, and you also need a little bit of luck.
