Football Quotes

One of the more bizarre games I played as a kid was something called ‘kill the man.’ It was a cross between football and rugby, which found the person carrying the ball a target of some hungry tacklers. I still don’t know why we enjoyed the game because it was impossible to win Picture Quote #1

I’m really into football, gadgets, adventurous activities, and cooking new, creative recipes right now - but you’ll never catch me being boring Picture Quote #1

I’m really into basketball, baseball, football and working out - but you’ll never catch me in a public sauna Picture Quote #1

If you were ever to interview me after a football game or at a football game or around me during football season is totally different than when you catch me away from football Picture Quote #1

Fishing largely consists of not catching fish; failure is as much a part of the sport as knee injuries are of football Picture Quote #1

The reason I went to an all-boys Catholic school was because they had the best football team. We won the state championship my junior year. It was super-competitive. We lost in the semifinals my senior year, and it still haunts me Picture Quote #1

A losing football team looks at excuses. A championship football team looks at solutions Picture Quote #1

Taking them out of the picture, so to speak, what football really is, the savagery, the core root of football, it doesn’t change. It really puts the real in football Picture Quote #1

You can change your wife, your politics, your religion, but never, never can you change your favourite football team Picture Quote #1

The old adage that you shouldn’t change a winning team doesn’t apply in modern international football because managers have to study the opposition and pick players who exploit their weaknesses Picture Quote #1

When I was really little, I was on a Pop Warner squad. I did it for a year. My dad was a Pop Warner football coach. I did it because my best friend was also on this cheer squad, and of course I looked up to my sister who was a cheerleader, so I wanted to cheer Picture Quote #1

The majority of my family is Auburn fans, and I grew up watching Auburn football, and that’s always who I’ve cheered for Picture Quote #1

Chess is a lot of fun for me. Football is a physical game, and in chess you can just beat someone mentally - you outwit somebody, outmaneuver them, think ahead of them Picture Quote #1

Pro football was taking off when I became commissioner, and when a sport’s successful and you’re its chief executive officer, much of the credit flows to you and you develop a good track record Picture Quote #1

I am endlessly fascinated that playing football is considered a training ground for leadership, but raising children isn’t Picture Quote #1

I think my boys handled it pretty much the same way with their children, but my grandsons all ended up playing football or lacrosse Picture Quote #1

I live in Leeds, which is about 200 miles north of London, and I get to go and do all the ‘Harry Potter’ stuff and make great films and be part of this wonderful thing all around the world, and then I get to go home and chill out with my friends in Leeds and go watch the football and go to the pub Picture Quote #1

Music is my thing. It’s my thing; it’s what I love. It’s what I do. It’s football to me; it’s Christmas to me; religion to me; poetry to me Picture Quote #1

My idea of a perfect holiday is spending time with the family, waking up on Christmas morning or Thanksgiving morning, watching football all day, having the family come over, people you haven’t seen Picture Quote #1

One of my beliefs is that there are certain institutions within a community which stand for the spirit and heart of that community, there’s the church, the local football team, the local pub and the theatre Picture Quote #1

The Bible is big in my teaching. It’s a wonder the ACLU didn’t get after me pretty good. I really kept thinking they would. I took my boys to church. I took my football team to church. I only did it two times a year. Before I signed a kid, I’d write the parents and I’d tell that parent we were gong to take your son to church twice Picture Quote #1

First of all, I’m so glad that the city of Houston has a football team again. They have such great fans. I’m really happy for the people of Houston because they deserve a football team Picture Quote #1

My son is a Liverpool fan, and he was already kicking a ball before he was one. He was born in the football city; he had no choice Picture Quote #1

What’s kind of happening is the conflict over football might be a class conflict where there is a percentage of people who have no relationship to physicality and a percentage of the populace who still does Picture Quote #1

Out of the 72 kids that I went to high school with, I still talk to 25 of them on a fairly regular basis. Seven of my classmates live in L.A., and five of them are in the entertainment business, and we constantly talk and play fantasy football together Picture Quote #1

I’m very close in age to my older brother, and we had a field at the end of the road where we could run around, climb trees, play football Picture Quote #1

I grew up with my cousins, who were as close as brothers, and frankly, I didn’t like what girls were expected to do. I liked horseback riding, playing football, going to rodeos. I wanted to be in jeans all the time, and I couldn’t figure out why I was supposed to conform to a certain standard, so I didn’t Picture Quote #1

For me, I’m lucky to have a lot of close friends - through football or through my family Picture Quote #1

I wish I could go to the school where my close friends go, but I obviously can’t. The good thing is, they’re really good about inviting me to all the football games and all that stuff. So I end up having an adopted team spirit for a school I don’t go to Picture Quote #1

I think as far as any kind of pressure on a football team or on an individual in professional sports really depends not only on that individual but the leadership they have on the team and the leadership they have on the coaching staff. A lot of times, they can divert some of those pressures off of the individual and off of the team Picture Quote #1
