I used to play football for Real Madrid, and to be on stage for two hours, I can tell you it takes the same amount of strength.
If you look at the footballers, you look at our celebrity culture, we seem to be saying, 'This is the way you want to be'. We seem to be a society that celebrates all the wrong people.
I was immersed in popular songs of the time, of the '30s and '40s. I was writing songs, making fun of the attitudes of those songs, in the musical style of the songs themselves; love songs, folk songs, marches, football.
I don't have a lot to share with other men. My heart sinks when I get into a taxi and someone starts talking to me about football.
I can't actually read interviews with thesps now because they're almost always fantastically predictable, the men especially. Actors are forever stressing their ordinariness, their beer and football-loving commitments.
I don't actually watch many shows. I will either watch movies or football. I enjoy to watch games in the Premier League and will also watch movies a lot as well. That is how I relax.
I loved playing football. In this particular match the ball happened to hit my right eye, the only one which I could see light and colour with.
If you look at old football pictures, the jerseys were hanging, the sleeves were dangling, but now everything is tucked and tailored.
We are making a little portion of their brains be sprinters; they are 100 percent football players, but for these purposes, they must learn the proper way to run.
You are responsible to each other because when you win a game of football, you only need eight players to perform well.
I only started concentrating on football as a career when I left school at 18. I played golf for the Scottish and British boys' teams.
When I was playing football, I always felt in complete control. When I play golf and come under pressure, it's a completely different ball game.
I think if Tottenham are going to be top four side, the fans and the club will need to get away from the philosophy of 'pretty football', that's got to go.
I hear people saying 'the way the game should be played'. Rubbish. That's the worst saying in football. You win the game, then worry about the way it should be played.
Football is so barbaric. Sometimes I wonder what I was thinking by playing it. I feel almost like I escaped from boot camp.
I'm a big fan of Coach Dorrell. I watched UCLA football for many, many years. I've grown accustomed to the Pac-10 style.
Athletes, coaches and parents today are increasingly aware of the danger of concussion, and this awareness influences decisions about buying new and reconditioned football helmets.
When you will have to search for long to collect other nine players to organize your usual five-a-side football match..you will realize to be old...
football is like life - it requires perserverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication and respect for authority.
High on the list of things I've been meaning to do since I moved to New York in 2004 is going up to a Columbia University football game.
Football is, after all, a wonderful way to get rid of your aggressions without going to jail for it.
