Another good Shaq quote. When in Greece for the Olympics he was asked if he visited the Parthenon.

"Probably, we went to a different club every night"

This is paraphrased. It was said by a decent running back in the early to mid-1990's.

I'm the kind of running back where if you need two yards, I'm going to get three yards. And if you need four yards, I'm going to get three yards.

A lot of commentators said that about Leroy Hoard.

That reminds me, from an NBA labor struggle:

"Sure, we make a lot of money. But we spend a lot of money, too."

John Wallace, the Syracuse basketball star was on a Canadian sports talk show when he played for the Raptors. The host said something of the effect of 'you guys make a lot of money.' Wallace responded "$4 million ain't a lot of money."

John Wallace made a lot of folks forget about the Final Four that day.

A few gems from Gordon Strachan:


Reporter: So, Gordon, in what areas do you think Middlesbrough were better than you today?
Strachan: What areas? Mainly that big green one out there....

Reporter: Bang, there goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?
Strachan: No, I'm just going to crumble like a wreck. I'll go home, become an alcoholic and maybe jump of a bridge.

Reporter: This might sound like a daft question, but you'll be happy to get your first win under your belt, won't you?
Strachan: You're right. It is a daft question.

Strachan: I've got more important things to think about. I've got a yogurt to finish by today, the expiry date is today. That can be my priority rather than Agustin Delgado.

On Cobb, Stan Musial actually hit 5 HR's in a doubleheader, but Ty did go out and hit three the day complained about the Babe. I think the pker equivalent (forgive me) would be Chip Reese saying 'screw this, I can win tournaments' and reeling off like three in a row. Which would be awesome.

from memory. the set up: Magic leading the Bulls in the 95 playoffs. Jordan has a lackluster performance. Nick Anderson post-game interview, "Number 45 ain't like number 23. Number 23 took off over you like the space shuttle. 45 gets all revved up but don't go nowhere."

Next game Jordan returns to the number 23 jersey and scores 60-odd points, mostly in Nick Anderson's face. Anderson post-game, "All I was trying to say is I think he played better with number 23. I think he proved my point."
