When I arrived at Manchester United, the club hadn't won the league for 26 years, and then in my first year, they won the championship.
Your dream, when you buy a sports franchise, is to win the championship, the Super Bowl.
My wrestling dream was to become a Division I national champion. That was my No. 1 dream - not Olympics, not money. Just winning that tournament.
I can't remember one bad time I had in Boston as far as where I got negative feedback from fans, no matter the first year we lost 18 straight or the following year we won a championship.
Playing in Wembley Stadium in front of 83-some-thousand fans to win a gold medal was unreal.
I will be the UFC lightweight champion. Mark my words.
With Barca, we won the Champions League after many years of disappointment, and the fans went delirious.
My goal had been to win a championship, work toward the Hall of Fame, have my jersey retired by the team and I'd go in as a lifelong New York Giant, but I'm now resigned to the fact that this won't happen.
I have short goals - to get better every day, to help my teammates every day - but my only ultimate goal is to win an NBA championship. It's all that matters. I dream about it. I dream about it all the time, how it would look, how it would feel. It would be so amazing.
If I'm watching my favorite boxer, and he's just won the heavyweight championship of the world, and he retires, it kind of makes the guy a legend.
It was like a heavyweight fight, man. Just blow for blow, everybody playing their heart out. The Indians never gave up either, and I can't believe we're finally standing, after 108 years, finally able to hoist the trophy.
Taking part and helping West Indies win the World T20 in 2012 - I'll never forget the feeling. The celebrations afterwards were crazy, a massive all-nighter.
I have read that I was a Bill Bradley type. I wish I was a Bradley. He was one of the best. He helped his team win two championships, and that's the ultimate.
I think all great players set a target for themselves in their careers. Mine was to win a world title with Brazil, which I did twice.
I want to win some Super Bowls, and so thats really my focus, to do whatever I have to do to lead this team to a championship.
It wasn't until '79 I won my first amateur championship, and then, by '81, I was 14, and I won my first world championship, which was amazing to me, and in a very real sense, that was the first real victory I had.
I feel great being the first Mexican heavyweight UFC champion.
It meant so much to me lifting the Alex Higgins Trophy at Goffs.
When I won the title against Jean Pascal it also won me fight of the year.
Winning the Olympic gold was amazing.
It doesn't eat at me. As a competitor, it drives you. It's hard to say this without someone saying, 'Golly, he doesn't care that much.' I want to win a championship for our team, for our organization. I want us to win one bad. But do I lose sleep over it? Or would I be miserable one day if I never did it? The answer is no.
There's no greater feeling, I would imagine, than winning a national championship in that one year and then hopefully going to the NBA.
In my time here, I've seen that Borussia Dortmund has developed steadily. We have become German champions and played in the Champions League.
We came to 135 to snatch a belt, and I felt like I definitely wanted to do that. I'd be a two division, three-time world champion. So I thought it was a great idea to do, so we did it.
Three events. Three gold medals. I was news, big news, in the sports world.
