I don’t think I’m a home run hitter. Most of my home runs are line drives. If I hit it, thanks God. But it’s not the kind of thing that I think about. I just go out there and try to have a better season than I had before. Home runs are not in my mind.
When I was traded from the Oakland A’s to the Atlanta Braves before the 2005 season, a childhood dream was realized. I grew up a Braves fan just a few hours south of Atlanta, and it was hard for me to believe that I was going to actually play for the Atlanta Braves and legendary manager Bobby Cox.
When I went to college, we had a very good local following, but stations only televised two or three NCAA games a season. And when I went to Europe, once in a while we had a good crowd, but usually not.
That, we encourage, and I think we’re doing a pretty good job with the website and also the DVD, like the first season came out and the second season’s being prepared now.
But so far I have the feeling that the chances are there to repeat last year’s season.
No jealousy their dawn of love overcast, nor blasted were their wedded days with strife; each season looked delightful as it past, to the fond husband and the faithful wife.
Snowboarding’s tough, because you’ve got to go to the mountains. For me, I love the skateboard season because I get to hangout at home and still be skating. I don’t have to travel to Norway or Japan or these crazy places to be snowboarding.
I am a very good shot. I have hunted for every kind of animal. But I would never kill an animal during mating season.
I tell myself every offseason I’m not going to say anything crazy. I’m just going to have a peaceful season… Can’t do it. I’m cut from a different cloth.
Writers on etiquette receive a continuous flow of questions on subjects such as ‘When is it too early in the season to wear white accessories?’ and ‘What is the proper gift to send to a family in mourning?’
‘Daredevil: Season One’ is kind of in-between. On the one hand, sure, it’s a graphic novel. But on the other, it’s beholden to existing continuity, and we’re still telling the story in issue-length chapters. So it’s not that different to writing a miniseries, and I’ve done plenty of those.
I would hate to think of the theatre world without critics. Without them, we’d not have the record of each season.
I tried out for ‘Tough Enough’ season 2 originally and made it to the final casting episode and got cut by Kevin Dunn, who said all I wanted to do was run and flip and jump.
‘I am a bad mother.’ Every Christmas, this is what I think because the holiday season fills me with such anxiety. I’m sure that other mothers are happily baking cookies, decorating trees, and finding perfect gifts for everyone.
I enjoy doing both of them very much, concert work particularly, and the division varies from season to season.
You just never know what the grand plan is on ‘Dexter,’ so I didn’t know if I was going to make it to the next episode, let alone the next season!
In fashion design, you can divide people into two groups. You have people who come with an aesthetic that is there forever, even if it evolves. Then you have people I call ‘jumpers.’ One season it can be this; the next season it’s completely something else. I always knew I am more of a jumper.
When ramps are in season, we pickle a bunch of ramps and fold that into soup. Pickled pearl onions are great chopped up or pureed.
You obviously want to start the season out with a big game and to follow it up by continuing to get better.
Usually during the regular season, if you’re starting pitcher, you’re kind of walking back and forth from the clubhouse to the dugout and not really paying attention to what’s going on.
No matter what losses happen in a given season, the Red Sox always have next year.
I was promised on a time – to have reason for my rhyme; From that time unto this season, I received nor rhyme nor reason.
Each season I strive to design a forward-thinking and effortless collection with a very clean minimalist aesthetic.
The midpoint of the NBA season comes a little after the turn of the calendar year. As we settle into the new promises we’ve made to ourselves, basketball teams are busy evaluating how the promises they made to themselves over the summer are going.
I wrote on the fourth season of ‘Arrested Development.’
They’ve got to deliver twenty-six episodes a season and they’re not going to beat their heads up against a wall if they feel something didn’t, like, pan out the way they had hoped.
Shortly after the end of last season, I felt that I probably would not return for the 1999-2000 season. I also felt that I should take as much time as possible to sort through my feelings and make sure that my feelings were backed with conviction.
The season of failure is the best time for sowing the seeds of success.
It’s football season; anything can happen.
It’s exciting that you’ve got an entire season to experience 24 hours of highly dramatically charged human experience. It allows for the close inspection of minutiae in behaviour.
Even though I didn’t win any titles, I have positive feelings about my first season at Manchester United. I have learned a lot, and I think I’ve made a lot of progress.
The idea of being on a show where each season stands alone, and you can come back the next year and show an entirely different aspect of your personality or your talent or your anything is an enormous gift that you rarely get in television.
Come September, the middle of September when the first frost comes, that’s hunting season. Fishing poles are hung up and the hunting season starts. You’ve got to be careful, if you’re a hunter, that it doesn’t become an obsession.
There are many really good teams in our conference this season. Miami, Indiana and Detroit will be our fiercest opponents this year. But we just have to focus on our game and be patient with the realistic hope that we’ll be on top after all is said and done.
I’ve done a lot of basketball drills, not a whole lot of competitive stuff. I have basically been in the gym everyday working on my game, working on the time off that I’ve had from the game, just getting myself prepared mentally and physically for the season.
I’m really hands-on. My team brings in elements, but, every season, it’s kind of a personal struggle to find the balance and to see how far I want to push the elements.
‘The Wire,’ I was such a fan of that show the first season – I think that’s the best-written show on TV.
I don’t have a mullet, but going into season one on ‘The Walking Dead,’ I asked to have a mullet, and everybody talked me out of it. Because I’d have to wear a mullet when we were not shooting every day. I have that motorcycle, wings on my vest, the crossbow… Maybe a mullet would’ve thrown me over the edge.
I get bored. We seem to have been having a little bit more time off this winter than last winter. I’m always itching to get back in the car. It’s going to get harder, so I’ve got to make sure that I’m doing everything I possibly can do to make sure I can start next season how I ended this season.
You don’t want to be outside during blackfly season.
I know Penny Toler and coach Ross have worked hard to put together a strong team this year, and I am ready to start the season with my teammates.
It is always open season on Christian and on white folks because they are the group you can kick and you can get away with it. It is politically correct.
It’s a good team though that works very closely and very well together, and all those people putting that effort in, then I’m sure we will improve dramatically from where we are now as the season goes on.
I got invited to the Playboy Mansion with the Lonely Island guys after their first season on ‘SNL,’ and I sat in the corner drinking coffee and talking to Akiva Schaffer about what aspect ratio he was going to shoot ‘Hot Rod’ in. Like, that’s what we talk about.
I try to make as much time as I can for R5, because I love it so much. Ultimately, that’s what’s going to be around forever in my life. Because with ‘Austin & Ally,’ our season is going to end, and then that will be it. But R5 will always be there.
Because after my first year I had a lot of success, took everybody by storm, came back the next year thought it was easy and didn’t have near the season I had the previous year. It was kind of a wake-up call. And so, life goes on.
I do love archery in my day-to-day life because I find it very therapeutic, and I’ve trained every season with the bow and arrow.
In our passage from the Cape of Good Hope the winds were mostly from the westward with very boisterous weather: but one great advantage that this season of the year has over the summer months is in being free from fogs.
It’s hard to pass up a pole vault opportunity here in Des Moines. The crowd was so great when I was at the mall and I was pumped up and I thought technically I was on and I figured where else to open up my outdoor season than here.
Silence at the proper season is wisdom, and better than any speech.
Giving back to those in need is something that everyone on all sides of the political aisle can relate to, and it is beautiful to see people come together, especially during the holiday season.
Sugaring season is the season when you tap the trees for sugar that turns into maple syrup. I’ve married someone from Vermont, so it’s an expression I kept hearing, and I’m like, ‘What is that? That’s just so beautiful.’ I like the idea it’s the very, very first murmurings of spring.
