S. Hughes Team Quotations

One of the things we're striving for as a team is to find the knockout punch. Today we were able to do that.

She is playing for the sake of the team now. She's learned that the little bumps you hit along the way aren't that bad, and she is now looking at the big picture.

When you're ahead in the game, or you're not a long ways behind, you can stay with your game plan. I'm anxious to see how we respond if the tables are turned and we're not ahead. That's one of the things this team has not faced yet, is some adversity like that. As we get into the meat of our schedule, things aren't always going to go our way like they did last week.

We've been waiting. We're close and we're in line, hopefully, to get a team. An NBA team could play in the Edward Jones Dome until a new arena is built. St. Louis supports baseball and hockey, and there's no reason why they wouldn't support an NBA team.

Our kids, their performances are getting better. It's a young team and they are starting to put together some consistent results.

Johns is averaging about 22 points a game and a team leader in rebounds.

Our team executed very well in overcoming many of the challenges we faced entering the third quarter. With outstanding progress on patent license renewals and broader customer engagements, we have solid momentum for revenue growth as we finish out the year.

It has been just awesome playing with these guys. I can't really describe the bond we all have, but day-in and day-out all we wanted to do was win. It didn't matter who scored or was getting the publicity. We all just wanted what was best for the team. There was so much talent on one team that people doubted we could put it together. Well, we did, and nobody can ever take that away from us.

We have not handled success well. We have not handled prosperity well. So my message to the kids is, listen it's a 10-round fight and what happened in the third-round today has no bearings on what happens next week. That's been the mindset, and I think this team has the culture of holding each other accountable so that that doesn't happen.

Those guys are upset that they lost Game 1, but they're not too concerned. I was in that situation, and it's never over until that team wins that fourth game. What we did in Game 1 doesn't mean anything unless we come out and take care of business in Game 2.

We played a good third period and had some scoring chances. But against a team like that, it was much too little, much too late.

When our offensive line plays well, we have a chance to move the football. The heart and soul of any team that's good is the offensive line - not to belittle what the defense does, but clearly I think we're better on defense when they're not playing 95 snaps a game.

Edna is going to be sorely missed. Her team leadership is invaluable and it's going to be hard not to have her in the locker room before and after games. Her guidance off the court is also going to be something that will be hard to replace.

Council received approximately sixty calls during the night and each team had to work in very trying conditions.

Two thousand five was a great year. Our investment in Hub's sales culture and the commitment of our people enabled us to post organic growth in the face of declining insurance rates. Our acquisition team continued to excel in identifying and closing attractive opportunities. In addition, we achieved our goal of increasing operating margins, recording a one-percentage-point improvement for the quarter and the year.

We are excited to have Marion on our team. Adding a talented and experienced professional such as Marion to our already deep team not only increases our overall capabilities as an investment management firm, but allows us to continue to provide top results to our investors.

We are excited to have Ron join our team as we continue to build out our efforts in these sectors. Ron will be an asset to the firm as we continue to expand our capabilities in the future.

First of all, Hartford was the better team that night, ... But what was demoralizing was our guys played well and have nothing to show for it. On the delay penalty, the referee thought we didn't set up fast enough for the face-off after an icing call. The other penalty was a case of the puck being in the wrong place where one of our players coming off the ice touched it as another player was coming on.

This year, we decided to look back and to honor and showcase some of the artists who came up during that time and team them with the rising stars that people always love to see at the festival.

This is an honor for coach Phillips. His selection is well-deserved. Coach Phillips does a good job for our basketball program. He always has his team prepared and ready to play.

That's a good team that came into our building. We think we're supposed to win.

I didn't feel comfortable until towards the end. One of the things we're trying to strive for as a team is to find the knockout punch, and today I think we were able to do that.

They were the better team (Sunday). If we played all game like we did in the third, I don't know if they're a better team than us, but hats off to them.

It's all about practice and consistency. The team is improving on a daily basis. They will be in the hunt at the end of the season.

You can't look at not being on the Olympic team as a damper on this event for her.

It was strange not driving in like I'm used to, ... I was coming in on the team bus and that's when it kind of hit me that I'm on the other team now.

They're not just on the team because they are from the local area. Both of these girls are very deserving. They both were pretty much the heart and soul of their respective teams. They are great players and can hold their own. They already proved that in the Ohio-Kentucky game.
