You cannot buy players and know, for sure, that they can deliver. You cannot know because football is a team sport.
I started to play, like all kids do, not as a goalkeeper. I liked scoring goals; in the end, it's all about scoring goals.
I am fascinated by English football.
If Tiger Woods had played football, he would have been a quarterback.
Wherever I go, I see kids playing football. Even if there is no grass and it's just sweaters for goals, you see how people love football.
Isn't cricket supposed to be a team sport? I feel people should decide first whether cricket is a team game or an individual sport.
I think the quarterback position is not one that's exempt from competition.
Presidents ... become hermits only at their peril. Running the executive branch is now a team sport. It is operated best by politicians who thrive on command, possess a fine and sure touch for the levers of power and enjoy the company of those who serve them.
Baseball is a team game.
Obviously, I'm a shortstop at heart. I want to continue to play shortstop.
I spent my time chasing rucks and never managing to hit any, so I quickly switched out to the backs.
As a little kid, I wasn't even interested in football. The first time I played, I was nine, and I volunteered to go in goal, thinking it would be exciting to save penalties. In fact, it was really boring.

I played rugby from the age of 10 until my late twenties; an unlikely player - small, quiet, long-haired and 'wiry.'
Basketball is not like football: It's not a car accident happening every play. Over the nine months, you can rest in practice and take off some minutes in games.
Bobsledding is like sprinting with NASCAR. You get to push these 400-pound sleds as fast as you can down a hill and hop in. How could you not enjoy that?
The English play hockey in any weather. Thunder, lightning, plague of locusts... nothing can stop the hockey. Do not fight the hockey, for the hockey will win.
The thing I like about baseball is that it's one-on-one. You stand up there alone, and if you make a mistake, it's your mistake. If you hit a home run, it's your home run.
I kind of feel like curling combines this weird vision of people sliding down a lane, and it looks like it combines bowling and every bar game I've ever played. But I still don't understand what the hell it is.

It's incredible to win an individual award in a team sport and also one where everybody wants to be able to say, 'I'm the best.'
I almost went with basketball over tennis.
