bend game teams
Bend and Pendleton are still the teams to beat. We just need to take it a game at a time.
lake physical sort
Lake Oswego is a good, physical team. They're sort of like Pendleton in that respect.
anyone expected girls lose terrific tough
It's always tough (to lose at this stage). But these girls have done more than anyone expected them to. It's been a terrific season.
ball great job nice sharing shot
Priscilla shot the ball very well. We also did a great job on offense, especially sharing the ball. It's nice to see, really.
free handle missed throws win
We just couldn't get anything going offensively. We had opportunities to win the game, but we missed free throws and we didn't handle the pressure. It was a frustrating night.
anyone beat close fewer games including league overlook played three won
We can't overlook anyone. Redmond is 2-6 in league, but they've played a lot of close games, including being up 14 on us in the first quarter. We've won three league games by three or fewer points. We know anyone can beat anyone in the conference.
against crook knew played sloppy today
We were sloppy (against Crook County), and we knew we had to play better today against Bend. Defensively, we really played very well today.
felt free held hit missed opportunity three tie tough
We felt comfortable with the game, then (Bailey) hit a three to get it back to three, and we missed our free throws. They had an opportunity to tie it, but we held on in a tough place to play.
names magazines months
I was with Roy Thomas on a panel and he turned to me and said, "You know, your name is on the cover a magazine every month." I said, "Really?" He pulled out a copy of "Destroyer," and said, "If you cover up the DEST you've got Royer on the cover every month."
brother soul film
I love pre-code movies. Some of my favorites are movies with Warren William and there is an MGM film called "Skyscraper Souls" which is the best Warner Brothers movie that MGM ever made.
brother thinking might
I like to think that I gave Jack Warner Brothers inking and Joe Sinnott gave him MGM inking. If you're not as in love with old movies as I am you might not make that connection, but I can see that connection.
brother book connections
I learned early Jack Kirby favorite movies were the Warner Brothers from the '30s. When you look at Jack Kirby's comic books, or at least when I do, I can make an instant connection. When he said he loved those movies it was like, "Of course."
ball chances defense limited second shoot stepped
We did not shoot the ball well at all. But our defense stepped up and limited their chances in the second half.
game good hitting job nice struggled
We struggled on offense, but we did a good job hitting our free-throws. It's really nice to see it; this was a big game for us.
