I saw a few quotes that i liked so i figured I'd share them and see if anyone else here has some good ones.
Baseball Quotes
"Hitting the ball was easy. Running around the bases was the tough part"
-Mickey Mantle
"You don't realize how easy this game is until you get up in that broadcasting booth."
-Mickey Mantle
"If he raced his pregnant wife he'd finish third." (on catcher Mide Scioscia)
-Tommy Lasorda
"All I want is for my case to be heard before an impractical decision-maker."
-Pete Rose
"I never questioned the integrity of an umpire. Their eyesight, yes."
-Leo Durocher
"If I were playing third base and my mother were rounding third with the run that was going to beat us, I'd trip her. Oh, I'd pick her up and brush her off and say,
"Sorry, Mom," but nobody beats me."
-Leo Durocher
"The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided."
-Casey Stengel
Hockey Quotes
"Goaltender is a normal job. Sure. How would you like it if at your job, every time you made the slightest mistake a little red light went on over your head and 18,000
people stood up and screamed at you?"
-Jaques Plante
"We are the sort of people who make health insurance popular"
-Former Red Wing defenseman
"Any discussion on hockey goaltenders must begin with the assumption that they are about three sandwiches shy of a picnic. I can prove this. From the moment Primitive Man
first lurched erect, he and those who came after him survived on the principle that when something hard and potentially painful comes at you at great velocity, you get the
hell out of its path. Goalkeepers throw themselves into its path. I rest my case."
-Jim Taylor, columnist
I'll probably add some more later.
