The fellows that I played with encouraged me to bunt and beat the ball out. I was anxious to make good and did as I was told. When I came to Brooklyn, I adopted an altogether different style of hitting. I stood flat-footed at the plate and slugged. That was my natural style.
I have a theory that burnout is about resentment. And you beat it by knowing what it is you're giving up that makes you resentful.
Iowa is especially critical for underdog and cash-strapped campaigns, because the caucus system relies on grassroots organizing, enabling candidates with time for retail politicking to beat better-funded rivals. So underdogs usually seize on the state.
I don't take that away from Conor, that he beat Chad Mendes on short notice. Chad took that fight knowing he had a chance to beat Conor, so that's Chad's fault he took that fight.
Bobby Charlton's record was quite substantial. I couldn't think anybody would beat that. It is an achievement par excellence.
Dan Donovan was the district attorney at one point who could not indict NYPD officer Daniel Pantaleo, who choked Eric Garner on video, for the whole country to watch, for the whole world to watch. And he actually, immediately after that, won a seat in Congress. He beat a Democrat to get into Congress.
One of my favorite moments was when me and Jay-Z made a song 'For Rhyme or Reason.' It ended up on 'Reasonable Doubt,' but they switched the beat because we couldn't get clearance from my label.
It is cliched, but you have to beat the best to be the best.
'Super Contra' was the game I fell in love with. I played and beat that game with my mom.
Cops on the beat can stop problems before the damage spreads.
If I got Corey Graves into a fisticuffs, I would beat him down like he stole something.
I still want to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks. We can't beat George Bush unless we appeal to a broad cross-section of Democrats.
'Cruise Control' was the first track me and Wiz Khalifa ever did. I made the beat on that, and I played guitar on it.
If I ran as a Dem, I know I could beat Hillary Clinton. And if it was me vs. Trump, I would crush him. No doubt about it.
I'm very lucky, because my beat is current events. And events are changing all the time.
I think I can beat Usher on the dance floor.
I will fight 'GGG,' and I will beat 'GGG,' but I will not be forced into the ring by artificial deadlines.
We know that the far left and their media allies can't beat us on the issues, so instead they'll distort our records. Let's not do the job for them, OK, Republicans? OK, independents?
How can they beat me? I've been struck by lightning, had two back operations, and been divorced twice.
I dance to the beat of a different drummer.
