Life is a sports make it count.

I don't get it. Basketball is so supremely boring. I can't understand the point of watching ten giants running from one end of the field--court--to the other throwing an orange ball through a hoop in the air. I guess it's better than golf, but so is watching paint dry.

Politicians and sports coaches both need to be smart enough to master the game, but dumb enough to think it matters.

Will we ever see his like again? It is doubtful. But at least for a brief moment in time we were lucky to have him as one of our own: an English lionheart who was the terror of the continent, who earned the love and respect of everyone who had the privilege to see him in action and above all was a thoroughly decent hero of whom we can be proud. Rest in peace 'Big Dunc'. Your feats will echo in eternity.

You didn't play baseball that well with two hands. How do you think you're going to make it with one? "If you're just going to tell me what I can't do, you can leave.

But how a game plan came to be, what a finished plan looked like, I had no idea. I__ heard that all copies were shredded as soon as the game was over.

If you put the time and work into getting better therefore that is called practice, anything that you practice you will definitely get better.

When life throws you a curve ball just give up, no need messing around with that off speed shit

Baseball has so much history and tradition. You can respect it, or you can exploit it for profit, but it's still being made all over the place, all the time.

She's a Texan, born and raised. Football is in our blood.

Look, girls. It is important to all of us that we win this game, right? Well, when it comes to athletics, boys are simply better suited than girls. It__ a fact of nature that no one can change. I__ sorry, but maybe you can play next time when it__ less crucial.

A ball feels different off every player's racket-there are minute but concrete subtleties of force and spin. Now, hitting with her (Steffi Graf), I feel her subtleties. It's like touching her, though we're forty feet apart. Every forehand is foreplay.

Understatement has become part of the tradition. A proposal to build a history room to house the football team's memorabilia was immediately shelved when many former players complained. What makes this program so special is what you carry in your heart, they argued, not what you hang on the wall.

I don't let birdies and pars get in the way of having a good time

Discouraged?As I was driving home from work one day, I stopped to watch a local Little League baseball game that was being played in a park near my home. As I sat down behind the bench on the first-baseline, I asked one of the boys what the score was."We__e behind 14 to nothing,_ he answered with a smile.__eally,_ I said. __ have to say you don__ look very discouraged.___iscouraged?_ the boy asked with a puzzled look on his face. __hy should we be discouraged? We haven__ been up to bat yet.

Something that you love so much you would be willing to die for it.

Walking to the net, I'm certain that I've lost to the better man, the Everest of the next generation. I pity the young players who will have to contend with him. I feel for the man who is fated to play Agassi to his Sampras. Though I don't mention Pete by name, I have him uppermost in my mind when I tell reporters: It's real simple. Most people have weaknesses. Federer has none.

all about that action boss
