SOGAGG Colleagues,
KC and SF played one heck of a game tonight. (Sorry Chi Chi, that the truly
deserving Patriots were not there, as they should have been….).
Never mind the outcome of SuperBowl 54, here are some thoughts from the many
great athletes from American sports who best understand the “thrill of
victory and agony of defeat”….
Harry Neale, professional hockey coach: "Last year we couldn't win at
home and we were losing on the road. My failure as a coach was that I
couldn't think of anyplace else to play."
Reggie Jackson commenting on Tom Seaver: "Blind people come to the
ballpark just to listen to him pitch."
Doug Sanders, professional golfer: "I'm working as hard as I can to
get my life and my cash to run out at the same time. If I can just die
after lunch Tuesday, everything will be perfect."
Mickey Lolich, Detroit Tigers pitcher: "All the fat guys watch me and
say to their wives, 'See, there's a fat guy doing okay. Bring me
another beer.'"
Tommy La Sorda , L A Dodgers manager: "I found out that it's not good
to talk about my troubles. Eighty percent of the people who hear them
don't care and the other twenty percent are glad I'm having them."
E.J. Holub, Kansas City Chiefs linebacker regarding his 12 knee
operations: "My knees look like they lost a knife fight with a
midget."
Vic Braden, tennis instructor: "My theory is that if you buy an
ice-cream cone and make it hit your mouth, you can learn to play
tennis. If you stick it on your forehead, your chances aren't as
good."
Walt Garrison, Dallas Cowboys fullback when asked if Tom Landry ever
smiles: "I don't know. I only played there for nine years."
John Breen, Houston Oilers: "We were tipping off our plays. Whenever
we broke from the huddle, three backs were laughing and one was pale
as a ghost."
Bum Phillips, New Orleans Saints, after viewing a lopsided loss to the
Atlanta Falcons: "The film looks suspiciously like the game itself."
Al Hrabosky, major league relief pitcher: "When I'm on the road, my
greatest ambition is to get a standing boo."
Paul Horning, Green Bay Packers running back on why his marriage
ceremony was before noon: "Because if it didn't work out, I didn't
want to blow the whole day."
Lou Holtz , Arkansas football coach: "I have a lifetime contract.
That means I can't be fired during the third quarter if we're ahead
and moving the ball."
Knute Rockne, when asked why Notre Dame had lost a game: "I won't know
until my barber tells me on Monday."
Bill Walton, Portland Trail Blazers: "I learned a long time ago that
'minor surgery' is when they do the operation on someone else, not
you.”
No matter who you were rooting for tonight, weren’t the commercials great!!!
Warmest regards,
KD
