I like vocabulary and I actually read a book called 'Word Freak,' which is about a guy who basically went into competitive Scrabble for a year. But having a big vocabulary and being good at Scrabble are not the same thing.
How do you beat Bobby Fischer? You play him at any game but chess. I try to stay in games where I have an edge.
I've played a lot of people in ping-pong. I had a table growing up.
Chess is ruthless: you've got to be prepared to kill people.
I don't expect never an easy match. I always expect difficult matches.
I'm blessed to come from a family with five brothers. We're all physical and athletic and like to work out, like to be outside, like to throw the ball around. We spent our entire childhoods on some kind of corner or in a field. We still do a Turkey Bowl every Thanksgiving. It gets competitive, man. Bloody.
Chuck Parson did not participate in organized sports, because to do so would distract from his larger goal of his life: to one day be convicted of murder
I believe that in games, when you're talking about pitting my wits and my brain against your wits and your brain, that simplicity of the game becomes a dominant factor.
I don't like sports. I'm not interested in sports. I hate sports.
Sport must be amateur or it is not sport. Sports played professionally are entertainment.
Every game in this league is close, and it's going to come down to making plays at the end.
At home, I'm definitely not watching golf. I'd rather be watching baseball, basketball, football, whatever it is.
I just like playing with the ball. I always have.
I was always really smart in school. My whole family is smart. We have 'Jeopardy' challenges and have Scrabble tournaments.
Golf is the most fascinating game, but other people's game is the most boring thing.
I do really well in the traditional board games: Backgammon, Checkers.
Everybody who comes to my home has to play at least one set against me. I beat them all. The best thing is when they want another set. People like me who can't stand not to win. I beat them again and again until they are furious, then I laugh. That's funny.
My father has always enjoyed games... always with a combination of the fun and social side of it, but also always highly competitive.
While I'm more of a soccer and tennis fan myself, I still enjoying catching some football games when I get the chance.
I don't like soccer. I think it makes you soft. And by the way, you telling me it's the biggest whatever in the World, look, they drink tea everywhere too; they're pussies, you understand? I want some coffee.
Sometimes I play cricket, and I play badminton.
We know from experience that anything can happen in games against strong opponents; nuances can make the difference.
It hasn't even been competitive. That's the first thing we're going to have to do is just find a way to stay competitive because these (first two games) have been over by halftime. We saw that last year too (on Halloween). It was 21-3 (Steelers) at the end of the first quarter.
I watch football sometimes at home, but in my downtime, I play pool with my friends. Darts - I enjoy darts now, and when there is a game not coming up, I enjoy playing golf as well. I'm not very good at golf, but I enjoy being able to relax.
I love all board games, actually, apart from backgammon. I can never remember the rules.
