My job is to persuade people to toe the line and play within the laws of the game.
I've got to make some decisions just like any other player that has ever played this game, that eventually the clock stops, their basketball clock stops.
When you are at the Olympic Games, it comes down to a ten thousandth of a hair between making the next round or winning a race or getting second or third.
Many track and field people know that if I stay relaxed and run my race like I'm supposed to, I will be the winner at the Olympic Games.
It's the Olympics. And it was a long way for me. To compete at the Olympic Games, I dreamed of any medal, but frankly speaking, I wanted a gold one.
You can't just come up with an idea for a game and stick the drama on top. It all has to be one driving thrust.
When I am starting a new game, I have to program it for the Apple, because I want to get all of the markets.
I think a game hits a high point when it provokes reactions the designer doesn't expect.
You have to be a student of the game to be successful, and it's promising when you can say that, with a world-record performance, I still have things to improve on!
When I was younger it was twice a day with a game on the weekend. Then when I got older, three times a day everyday in college and on the national team.
Players lose you games, not tactics. There's so much crap talked about tactics by people who barely know how to win at dominoes.
For the first six years of his career, Sammy Sosa was one of the least patient players in the game. He could hit the long ball and steal a base, but he was undisciplined.
Ted Williams, an extraordinary hitter in his day, has said the swing starts in the hips, and Sosa arrived with one of the strongest lower bodies in the game.
Sometimes when I listen to fellow progressives, I wonder if the only lesson we took away from the '04 elections is that politics is a word game.
In a world where global politics is no longer a zero-sum game, it is - or should be - counterintuitive to pursue one's interests without considering the interests of others.
It's such a beautiful sport, with no politics involved, no color, no class. Only as a youngster can you play and as a pro can you win. The game has kept me young, involved and excited and for me to be up here with gems of baseball.
We must remember that politics is more than a power game. The core of politics in my view is to serve our citizens, to serve our fellow human beings.
I think every time I go in a game, I have added something positive. I have gotten a rebound or made a defensive play. That is what I try to focus on.
Life is similar to Boxing Game. Defeat is not Declared when U Fall Down; It is Declared when U Refuse to Get Up.
We had an opportunity to clinch a playoff berth and I think if that's not enough motivation I don't think you should be playing this game.
I'll tell you what, I've been in some seriously bad places playing golf and it's just part of the game.
