I’m proud of our defense to be able hold a team with the weapons that Clear Lake has to three points. Hats off to the defense.

The Marines are obeying the cease-fire, but they’re being fired upon. They can return fire in self-defense, which they do, but they’re trying their best to follow the rules of the cease-fire,

Our defense was very, very good against a very complex offense at times. A week prep for that offense helped us.

That’s impressive. Thank goodness we were playing defense and getting rebounds. That kept us in the game.

Anytime you shoot as poorly as we did in the first half, you have to step up and play defense while you’re down here, because your shots aren’t always gonna fall when you’re down here.

Jon has done an excellent job. Our defense has been ranked among the top 20 every year. We wanted to make sure he had some stability.

It seemed to me that Wall Street analysts fired all their cannons this morning in defense of technology and look at the result. Some of these stocks will get bailed out if they significantly beat...

We have formed a legal defense team that includes prominent American, European, Asian and Arab lawyers who were chosen on the basis of competence and merit to put up a strong defense.

I have faith in my defense, my teammates. They’ve all played extremely well these last three games.

Envy is a sign of insecurity, yes; but so is longing to be envied.

Defense is always our game. It’s what we have to do; it’s what we know how to do; it’s what we’ve always done.

The kids have done a great job picking up the scheme, … We had to teach them responsibility on defense. Sometimes you want to play for yourself as opposed to other people. The first thing...

Our defense has made seven errors in the last three games. I don’t think we’ve made seven errors all year. (Ross) had a stomach flu the night before, so we were lucky that he could...

I think what we do best right now is play defense. They’re going to get some yards. They’re too talented. We just can’t let them get runs of 70 and 80 yards.

We’re playing great defense right now, no doubt about that. We’re not just getting it done on the offensive end.

For our first game, I was really impressed. We were all in the right spots. We had good defense, pitching and hitting.

In the second half, we played some pretty stifling defense.

I would say everybody would say this is a statement game. We came out real strong on defense and hit them in the mouth first.

My arm strength is my biggest advantage. I can throw the ball downfield well. I love playing defense too. I just love the emotion. You can get really excited when you’re out there.

When you cut a half-a-trillion dollars from the defense budget, it affects almost every area in the defense budget.

The defense really stepped up in the second half, … We really needed it to carry us over. We stopped them when we needed it most.

I know the stats may not have said it, but that’s as good as we can play on defense. Sundays usually aren’t a real fun day around the office but watching that defense and those...

The start was definitely the difference. Jumping out like we did. The kids played great on defense. I thought they moved their feet. They were tipping balls away. Then on the other side we were...

Our defense and hitting were finally coming together.

We were playing good defense, we’re just struggling offensively putting the ball in the basket. This happened last year against Kansas on Senior Night, and we just knew we were going to catch fire, and...

These were tragic deaths. I think that people don’t understand that we, on the defense, felt that very strongly also.

To me the most important thing is when I look back on our defense was that they played together as a unit and they gave each other credit. We didn’t have a bunch of individuals...

We played sluggish in the game. Our defense never stepped up, and we let their leading scorer have her way. Our plan was to shut her down, but we just didn’t come out ready to...

New rules. If you are smart enough to live, you won’t hit Charles’s mate in front of his father.

I thought our defense did a real good job against their big girls.

Darren did an excellent job against Pryor. He shut him down. The way he played defense just lifted everyone else up.

It was just one of those nights. It was a combination of us playing good defense and getting good looks and good shots. We were fortunate to get them on a night where they didn’t...

Lake County is a high-tempo team, so we will have to play defense. They are 4-0 in the [Skyway] conference, and we are 3-1, so if we want to win the conference, we have to...

It’s a defense that ranks first in our area, and amongst the best in the entire state, allowing only about 92 total yards a game.

Our defense kept us in the game. It was reminiscent of the way we won so many games last year. There are always points in the game when you struggle a little offensively. You hope...

I’m at a loss for words on our defense. We’ve got to have significant improvement.

Clearly, effort. That’s all it is. Against Georgia Tech, there were some things that we could do better. Execution, defense — that’s one thing. But what happened against N.C. State was lack of effort.

We’ll have to handle their pressure and play with the same intensity on defense as we did on Saturday night. If we can beat their pressure, we do have a size advantage in several positions....

He has a plausible defense; he could say he’s fighting for his constituency, and that’s true in large part. The thing is, the contributions undercut his argument. The money really complicates it, or even compromises...

Plus, … her defense has improved. She’s never been one of my quickest players, but she plays with so much heart that it gives her that extra quickness.

For us on defense, we just had to do what we had been doing all year. We didn’t have to a make any big changes or anything like that just because we were facing a...

Defense was key to the section. You look at Washington and all their success. A lot of it has to do with them always being the best defensive team in the section. Since we lost...

Our run defense has not done well, and there is no excuse for that. We aren’t fitting well, and we have a couple of new players in there, who aren’t as good as the guys...

Alabama has an awesome defense, especially their front guys. They’re better than any of the defenses in the Big 12, in my opinion.

Is there any instinct more deeply implanted in the heart of man than the pride of protection, a protection which is constantly exerted for a fragile and defenceless creature?

This effort will clearly increase the overall burden on our military, … The Defense Department’s civilian leaders must look at the impact of this and future crises and the ongoing war on the military’s future...

One of our biggest strengths have been defense and I expect it to stay the same this year. We have a team that have been together for a long time. We can rely on our...

We didn’t pitch exceptionally well or smart today, but we hit. We hit and we played pretty good defense.

They do not have to convince the government to spend money on defense, really. Defense is a pretty secure area of the budget. In that sense, there is a built-in power that they have.
