continue environment practices until
The environment will continue to deteriorate until pollution practices are abandoned.
blow car cup harder hit hurt minutes past practiced tire wrecks
Yeah, I had some wrecks before the HANS that really hurt me. This past year, I had a right-front tire blow out at Michigan, and I probably hit harder than I did at Atlanta. And I went and practiced my Cup car 15 minutes later.
views practice together
In the traditional view, a person is free. He is autonomous in the sense that his behavior is uncaused. He can therefore be held responsible for what he does and justly punished if he offends. That view, together with its associated practices, must be re-examined when a scientific analysis reveals unsuspected controlling relations between behavior and environment.
practice people crowds
Overcrowding can be corrected only by inducing people not to crowd, and the environment will continue to deteriorate until polluting practices are abandoned.
practice achievement society
Many social practices essential to the welfare of the species involve the control of one person by another, and no one can suppress them who has any concern for human achievements
war practice people
Better contraceptives will control population only if people will use them. A nuclear holocaust can be prevented only if the conditions under which nations make war can be changed. The environment will continue to deteriorate until pollution practices are abandoned. We need to make vast changes in human behavior.
club fortunate mistake overcome veteran
I thought we have a veteran club and we made a very big mistake there. We were fortunate to overcome that.
couple exploited front game happened key looked mistakes played
I thought they just made a couple of key mistakes in front of their own goal. It looked like a little miscommunication between their sweeper and their goalie sometimes, and we exploited that. The game wasn't played all that pretty. We just happened to score.
good match nice shot
I think we have as good a shot as any team. That would be really nice to go down there and get a win. But we have to take it a match at a time.
either everybody fans maybe
It had nothing to do with the game. It was a well-played game. It wasn't even a distraction for either team. Maybe the fans and everybody else got excited.
ads beginning interested jerry negative realize smear voters
Jerry Kilgore is beginning to realize voters aren't interested in smear ads and negative attacks.
last playing
Last two games, he's been playing like a first-team, all-league player.
coaching community parents program proud reflection starting students support
I say it's a reflection not just on me but the whole program. It's something the whole program should be proud of because not just one person can do it. You have to have the parents, the coaching staff, the students and the support from the community and I really think we are starting to get that.
bench games players preference sat whether
I sat the bench (with the Kings) for I don't know how many games. It is just a coach's preference whether or not they are going to play players or not.
