If you are at Bayern and lose to Dortmund, it is common that the media voices criticism.
So many times, I notice nobody will say a bad word about a team or situation because they're worried about their next job. I'm not worried about that.
I can't stand USC. They get such media attention.
I told our guys they must not have cable because Antoine Walker knows how to play, Derek Anderson can play, Shandon Anderson knows how to play, and Gary Payton knows how play.
I never would say a player stinks. Ever. I'll tell you their team stinks, and first of all, they know their team stinks. And the fans know their team stinks.
We yelled, mostly, but bad enough that you wanted to fight. That's how we became winners. We fought each other. When you did something wrong, we'd tell you about it.
Rooting for the Red Sox is like rooting for the drug companies.
Europeans take their soccer pretty seriously. So, when this Turkish TV host had the nerve to criticize the local team, the fans decided to do something about it, something like storm the TV studio during a live show.
The Miami Heat floor is great, but a lot of them are not.
The players get no respect around here. They give you money, that's it, not respect. We get constantly dogged and players from other teams love to see that. That's why nobody wants to play here.
Nobody believed in us. Everybody made fun of Houston basketball. I can't say I blamed 'em.
For the life of me, I'll never understand why the teams that have the best defences get criticised. Shouldn't clean sheets be a badge of honour for defenders and goalkeepers?
The manager could not even talk to us at the interval. He said we were bad.
Now listen lads, I'm not happy with our tackling. We're hurting them but they keep getting up.
I always loved the signs on the outfield walls, and I'll never forget the one in Philadelphia. It said, 'The Phillies use Lifebuoy soap,' and underneath was scrawled, 'And they still stink.'
We can't take such unfair criticism. It would be difficult for me to continue as captain if this unhealthy trend of demoralising the team after a few bad performances continues.
