The trouble with figuring out where New Mexico is going is that the women's selection committee's decisions are really tough to predict, and New Mexico has to fall in line behind BYU and Utah. Those teams have to get higher seeds and favorable draws close to home. New Mexico can't be in the same side of the bracket, so their destiny depends on how the selection committee views BYU and Utah. (Quote by - Jerry Palm)

I didn't do this to get my name on a plaque but I did this to get the county somewhere. (Quote by - Larry Burns)

(Quote by - Brian C. Greenberg)

There is confusion regarding the position of the External Affairs Minister. We are trying for the membership of the Security Council of the United Nation.

(Quote by - Russell Simmons)
It is no surprise that the Republican-controlled Senate intelligence committee has once again caved in to the wishes of the White House and refused even to open an investigation.

(Quote by - Harry Reid)
I wanted young kids to have the opportunity to idolize pro players the way I idolized the North American Soccer League players, I volunteered with the committee in Dallas, and when the committee resigned itself that they couldn't get a team and closed up shop, we went to work and negotiated the contract for the Cotton Bowl.

(Quote by - Adrian Anderson)
