“He is not nicknamed 'The Wall' for nothing but, having taken on opening, he may have exposed himself slightly. The new ball can get him out and he tends to play with his bat outside his body to a ball on line with off stump, which can result in an edge. He offers chances early on and they need to be held. For a player of his ability he tends to lose patience against spin.”

“It's been a very undecided market. When the opened, it entered a slightly softer period, which was nothing more than a result of profit taking after Friday's enthusiastic buying. After that it turned positive as it got closer to the UK opening.”

“What Wall Street thinks is that Bush would be slightly better than Gore, but not much, and either way the numbers are going up.”
Joseph Campell
“It's been slightly busier, and it was busy yesterday but nothing exceptional.”
Andrew Black
“It was definitely a right hand and not a head butt that opened her eye. She was slightly crouched over and as she was straightening up I went with the straight right hand (as instructed by trainer Rick Noble). The right is what cut her eye. Not my head.”
Carina Moreno
“We opened the day stronger and continued a little higher, and then as a slight surprise to some, ended up holding the positive tone throughout the day - whereas sometimes on days like this in the past you've given up the bulk of those gains. Silver, specifically, closed relatively close to the highs.”
Dave Meger
“The numbers are slightly down, but are nothing to be concerned about.”
