Sports betting is all about money management, so the most money won on one event is not the most important thing Picture Quote #1

Whether you’re on a sports team, in an office or a member of a family, if you can’t trust one another there’s going to be trouble Picture Quote #1

Boxing, for me, it’s the beginning of all sports. I’m willing to bet that the first sport was a man against another man in a fight, so I think that’s something innate in all of us Picture Quote #1

There aren’t a lot of opportunities for that rite of passage that makes you a man. War is one of them, and violent sports are another Picture Quote #1

ESPN has this problem with sports, it’s impossible to fill 24 hours with sports programming so they have to resort to things like poker and arm wrestling tournaments Picture Quote #1

In sports, I was representing my country, but in politics I represent people directly. I have always lived with a cause. In army, it was the existence of the sanctity of nation and the men I was commanding, and in sports, it was the pride of my country, while in politics, it is the rights of citizens I am fighting for Picture Quote #1

Band members have a special bond. A great band is more than just some people working together. It’s like a highly specialized army unit, or a winning sports team. A unique combination of elements that becomes stronger together than apart Picture Quote #1

The addiction to sports, therefore, in a peculiar degree marks an arrested development in man’s moral nature Picture Quote #1

My heroes, I couldn’t imagine them practicing. Like Bob Dylan, you know? Bob Dylan’s a very, very good guitar player, but it’s like he’s trying to hide it. I always loved this attitude. When you’re very good... it’s like being an athlete - and I always hated sports! Picture Quote #1
