Football is about joy. It's about dribbling. I favour every idea that makes the game beautiful. Every good idea has to last.
It is well documented that I am a lifelong football fan. My love of the British game started with the 1966 World Cup.
I love football; I enjoy it. That's why I've been in this game as many years as I have. I still like it. I get excited about it.
I'm Joe Canada, who never went to high school. I've never even been to a football game.
The real fans of football come from the working class. Now they cannot afford to come and watch the game.
Especially in football, it is not a QB's game... even though the media likes to make it into that - it takes the whole team.
I never really gambled - certainly not playing poker. I'd casually bet on a football game or joined a pool.
If a man watches three football games in a row, he should be declared legally dead.
You need to be able to work with people. Especially in football, it is not a QB's game... even though the media likes to make it into that - it takes the whole team.
The process begins during the off-season program, when players spend countless hours together and become heavily invested in the season before it even starts. It continues during these weekly meetings, when players stand and deliver heartfelt testimo...
There are many reasons why I hate college football. The 4-hour games drone on longer than Steve Lyons during the American League playoffs. The ever-expanding season threatens to creep into early July. Boise, Idaho, hosts a bowl game. And it's played ...
I would say I'm more traditional than I am superstitious. I don't, for example, have to do things ritually before the game in order to feel comfortable going to the game. But I don't think I'm naturally a football player. I don't have that grit and t...
Rather than opera, football is more like ballet or a chess game. You can really see it in a team like Arsenal, especially when Dennis Bergkamp was playing. He seemed to be able to read the game like a chessboard and knew where a player would be sever...
The chairmen of the largest companies in the world can cancel an appointment or move a board meeting; a manager cannot change the date of a game. In the combined 42 years that Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger have managed in English football, I ca...
At the high school level, the coaches get these kids in revenue-driven sports and take them away from baseball. There's so much pressure on these kids to even play spring football. We need to get the African-American players back in the game, which I...
Colonel Blake: Football game? Gen. Hammond: Yeah, yeah, we put up a few bets, five thousand maybe, and have a little fun. Special services in Tokyo says it's one of the best gimmicks we've got to keep the American way of life going here in Asia. Colo...
I have a lot of great friends in football. The game was great to me. And I've been able to do other things in television and enjoy that, meeting those people.
I sing the 'Star Spangled Banner,' so I can get into football, basketball and baseball games for free.
Football is a simple game based on the giving and taking of passes, of controlling the ball and of making yourself available to receive a pass. It is terribly simple.
I just want people to see me as a hard-working footballer and someone who is passionate about the game.
In international football you have 10 games a season, with players from different clubs. There's no time for proper coaching; they're just recovering from playing on the Saturday.
