E. Helm Good Quotations

Sean probably won't practice for two days. We're going to try to nurse him and get him ready to go for Thursday. We felt this was important to try to go with him, and he fought. When he went out of the game, we couldn't get a four man to try to run our offense. And if you don't run your offense, you're not going to beat a team as good as Midland.

It would have been a very tight squeeze. If they were going to miss Christmas, there just wasn't a good reason to push it for 2006.

Both teams played pretty good defense, but Midland ran their offense better than we ran ours. We're not going to beat a good team and Midland is a good team if we don't run our offense and execute.

This is a very good win for us. We come back home and had the crowd behind us and it helped.

This is Microsoft talking to businesses about why it's a good IT vendor and particularly why its different from IBM.

It's good that we have the balance, but it would be good if somebody stepped up put us on their shoulders and carried us. We don't have that, so we're going to have to depend on the balance.
