Dave Quotations | Page 3

Dave Andreychuk walked into our locker room four seasons ago and helped us find our way. He helped our young players grow and develop and mature more quickly, and he helped establish an expectation level in terms of expecting to win each and every night through hard work and commitment. ... Having his veteran presence back in our locker room, and his perennial 20-goal contribution on the ice, are huge factors in helping us attempt to repeat as Stanley Cup champions.

Dave asked me to be his campaign treasurer, and there was no question that I would, because he is a very good friend of mine. But I had no idea what a campaign treasurer does.

Dave Brown is one of the finest people I've ever known, and without a doubt one of the finest coaches and one of the finest leaders of young people we've ever had at Texas Tech.

Dave Bush really shut down a real talented offensive team. He did a great job, really picked us up. That's two consecutive good starts, so it rested our bullpen and gave us a break that we needed down there, too.

Dave Bush was really, really good. (He) had quick innings, kept his pitch count down, got us through seven. That was big.

Dave Bush was really, really good. He kept his pitch count down. He got us through seven innings, which was big. He was spotting his fastball really well.

Dave came along at a time when the club was struggling and it is disappointing that he's had to go. But there's never a shortage of people with the ambition to want to manage a football club.

Dave came into the league with me in B.C. so it's great to have Double D back. We expect great things from him and believe he'll fit in well with our playing style.

Dave LaChapelle talked me into it, ... I thought it was going to be no big deal, probably not too many people would see it. Then I was having a party during the Daytona 500, and it was the first commercial on it. I told my wife, 'Honey, I think I'm in trouble.'

Dave McIvor and a few other guys, like Ryan Cornforth, they're willing to put the body in front of the shot and make sure. Those are the little things we need every guy to do, not just one or two.

Dave Mellor deserves a lot of credit. This isn't the sort of thing where you can just call Home Depot and put in an order. He had the sod on reserve and it was there when we put the order in.

Dave needs to be playing due to his international aspirations. But with Matt Heywood and Louis Carey doing so well, plus Liam Fontaine's arrival, he will find that hard to do.

Dave played fabulously. He struggled last time, but came back for a great game. We're definitely heading in the right direction.

Dave Watson's career has been similar to mine, and from what I have been told he has been one of the players of the season for Everton. I know I would have regretted not taking this opportunity. Everton is a traditional club in my eyes, with a great, passionate support. I think it will be a great place to play football.

Dave Weldon is the one who loses the most here because he isn't going out of his way to show his complete record. He's going to let this case cloud his reputation.

Dave Wilcox (former San Francisco 49ers linebacker) is in the HOF, and to take nothing away from Dave because he was a great player, but I think I was as good as he was and I'm not in,

Dave will be wrestling on scholarship at Penn State next year. They have a good tradition of strong wrestling.

Dave will return to Fairmont in a few weeks and we will select performers for next season.

Dave has a moment when he's young where he tries to talk to his mother, who just shuts him down, ... From that point on, Dave had to create someone else; that's where his problems begin. That's the tragedy of his character: He's been hiding it for too long. He doesn't know himself.

Dave has been like a kid in a candy store for the last few months. He's loving every minute of putting the tournament together, and he's doing a great job.

From the superintendent to the commandant to the various deans, they all have tremendous trust and confidence in Dave. His instincts with regard to prospective student-athletes have been proven over time.

Dave has really stepped it up this year. He's a smart kid and can anticipate where the ball is going. He has some good moves down low, and he finishes.

Dave invited me out here to check this out. This water is freezing cold.

Dave is a consummate financial expert -- a premier example of the wealth of financial and operational talent we have at Verizon, ... We will miss him, and we will always be grateful for the invaluable contributions he made to the creation of Verizon.

Dave is a great guy, a long-term employee. The bank will not lose a step.

Dave is an individual I have coached with in the past, and someone who I have the utmost respect for as a coach and as a person. He has a tremendous amount of experience at coaching offense at the Division I level, and has ties to the BIG EAST Conference as a player and a coach.

Dave is a perfect example of a kid that just wants to do anything for the team. He does whatever we ask of him and he's just happy to do whatever he can do for the team. He truly is a team player.

Dave is kind of smack dab in the middle. This will be attractive to voters.

Dave just said, 'This program will go on -- it has to go on,'

Dave kind of reminds me of myself when I went with Bobby. He made all the calls on Saturday but I was involved on day-to-day game planning.

It's part of the game. It's something that happens. Everybody is thinking about Dave the person, that's who we're looking after. It's sad to see, but it's part of the game and it's management's decision. We can't do anything about it other than move on. Obviously, we're going to miss having him around.

I wanted to run the ball and that is normally what we do in Cromwell. But Dave Foster, my assistant, told me that Hedin was ready and that he'd make the kick.

The message coming from Dave is absolutely spot-on,

It took a lot for Dave to say what he did. It took more for Joe to quit.

It takes the tree at least one season to settle in and get growing again, but with Dave and Sam's care, they grow faster.

I had Bill and Dave walk up the driveway and go into the old garage, and they started reminiscing,

I know Dave can make a play if we need one. That's why we like to put him in position to get open in big situations. If you go to him, you know he's going to give you everything he's got to make the play.

I have worked with several art directors and production designers who are just magnificent. Dave Getz, Paul Felix, Ian Gooding... just amazing artists, and I would say, if I had anything to do with it, I just pick good artists!

In the past we've had Dwight Clark, Jim Brown, Lawrence Taylor, Dave Krieg and Danny White come out here Friday to practice.

I really feel bad for people who only experience one type of music. There's so much out there. And that has always been something I have thrived on. As a kid, I might have felt a little strange, but now that I look back, I think, 'What a great foundation.' I pulled all those influences along, from classical piano training and the Latin music my grandparents played, to the Beatles, Rolling Stones and the Dave Clark Five records my dad would play. It all came together as I got older.

He's right there with us. He felt that loss just like we did. That's just such a good feeling. He's our general, and when you see your general hurting the way he was hurting -- not saying (former coach) Dave (Wannstedt) wasn't like that -- but it just makes you feel like this guy's a part of us.

Geddy Lee and I went to the same grade school. He moved away when we were still young, but I remember him like I do all my friends from back then. Then in 1982, Dave Thomas and I were approached to do a record as the McKenzie Brothers on Anthem Records, the same label that Rush was on.

(General manager) Dave Berryman told me how much he saw our guys patting each other on the back after plays. Our guys genuinely like each other and it shows.

It was one of the funniest things I've ever seen, ... A linebacker for the Cardinals was hollering, 'Choke, Fritsch, choke!' and Dave Edwards, our upback on the protection team, said, 'He can't understand English.'

It's an exceptional accomplishment by co-hosts Dave Johnson and Bill Finley and producer Ed Pappas, and all of our team at Sirius to win this award.

As a kid, I used to go see all the jazz players, Oscar Peterson, Stan Kenton, Dave Brubeck, Dizzy Gillespe.

All I'll say is this is Dave's decision -- he can entertain anyone he wants. I'm not going to try to sway him one way or another, ... I'm fine with what happened and that was a long time ago. Whoever Dave picks, we want someone who gives us the best chance to win.

This challenge grant from Dave Matthews Band will focus attention on these positive rebuilding efforts while letting everyone know there is still a lot of work to do.

The marker said third down, ... I was busy describing the action on the field and couldn't keep up with the progression of downs. Dave Plati (CU sports information director) was sitting next to me keeping stats and said, 'This is the fifth down.' There was confusion on the field, but I thought they just weren't sure whether Charles Johnson had made it into the end zone. Then, with time having run out, they called the teams back onto the field, but it was just to kick the extra point.

Although Dave was widely popular, he was never very comfortable as a celebrity. He kept reminding us he was simply a hamburger cook.

The challenge here comes because Dave was extremely successful in a number of economic development efforts, especially working in a diverse community, including many communities outside Ames.

All but Dave on the end peg struggled for anything other than really small roach - four or five to the ounce - until the last half-hour. Then most of the field began to sample the quality roach Dave had been catching for most of the match.
