I think it was the Tampa Bay head coach John McKay, after his team, one of the worst NFL teams of all time, had just lost another game due to sloppy play:
Reporter: What do you think of your team's execution? Disgusted McKay: I'm in favor of it. |

[ QUOTE ] Cobb then said watch this, I'll start trying for HR's. He hit five in his next two games, a record that stood unmatched by anyone for 80 years, until the Steroid Era of today. [/ QUOTE ] Huge exaggeration. A record that stood unmatched for 80 years until the Steroid Era??? The same feat was accomplished prior to Cobb by Cap Anson some 30+ years previous, and again just 11 years later by Lazzeri. Not to mention, in the 80 years after that "this record supposedly stood"...it was accomplished about 25 times, twice each by Ralph Kiner and Nate Colbert. [/ QUOTE ] Stump's book "Cobb" said no one had done it since. When someone I never heard of did it a few years ago, all the highlight shows echoed the sentiment that nobody had done it since Cobb. I don't doubt your version of the facts. I'm just letting you know that I didn't make up what I wrote. |

Shankly has a ton of great quotes. The one you mentioned is sometimes quoted to talk about american football which is interesting.
Here's more “The trouble with referees is that they know the rules, but they do not know the game.” “This city has two great teams - Liverpool and Liverpool reserves.” “We murdered them 0-0.” “Football is a matter of life and death, except more important” If he had gunpowder for brains he couldn't blow his cap off. |
