God put this game last, and it's just like putting a cherry on top of your Sundae.
There are a lot of things going into making a movie. So many things can go wrong. So many people that need to show up and bring their "A" game. If one thing is out of place, the whole movie can fall apart.
A week after his State of the Union address, political observers are still trying to figure out what President Obama's game is. That's because rhetorically and substantively, he seems to be in another world.
The best way to describe my ability was to say that after the game the other kids would say to me, 'Way to try!'
I learned the game on the radio. Russ Hodges and Lon Simmons were the Giants broadcasters when I was growing up in the Bay area, and they taught me about the game. They taught me about the subtleties of the game, but they also gave me the game and let me enjoy it. That's the main thing, whether it's TV or radio. You have to give the fans the game, and if it's a Giants broadcast, the vast majority are Giants fans. In terms of story lines, most would be about the Giants.
The Giants have won. They have won the World Series for the third time in five years. And Madison Bumgarner has firmly etched his name on the all-time World Series record books as one of the greatest World Series pitchers the game has ever seen.
I love X-Games music.
Once the whistle goes, it's game on and you shut out the outside factors. If you thought about things, you wouldn't be able to do your job. For 95 minutes you have to totally concentrate and that's what we'll do.
The best thing that could've happened to me was that I learned a lot in Vegas, but I didn't know how to implement it. Whenever I came to Texas, all we had was Marc Laimon, jiu-jitsu coach. We didn't have a striking coach. So me and him started to just develop our own game, because he knows nothing about striking. We sat down and we sort of found my style. I think that was the best thing that could've happened to me.
The booing and the drama help make the Olympics interesting, but at what cost? When will people finally get tired of it and start watching the X-Games or competitive tire rolling instead?
I have always been a firm believer that the game has never belonged to the owners. It has never belonged to the ballplayers. It belongs to the guy who puts his money up on the window and says, 'How much does it cost to sit in the bleachers?' That is who owns baseball. And it has got to be kept that way.
People need to look at baseball like it has been sent from the heavens, and respect the game.
I don't understand some people, using biblical terms to criticize me when this is just a game.
In a lot of close games, I can make a difference with my speed.
I know what it takes to win ball games.
I play every game like it's going to be my last.
Maybe we should hold the next [Olympic] games in Afghanistan and hope the Soviets pull out of that one too.
Never complain about the officiating. It does no good. During the game I don't want to be fighting two opponents.
Generally speaking, individual performances don't win basketball games
You control the terms of the conflict. Make them play your game. Don't try to play theirs.
Defense is a definite part of the game, and a great part of defense is learning to play it without fouling.
A life not lived for others is not a life, a game not played for others is not a game.
I think permitting the game to become too physical takes away a little bit of the beauty.
The close games are usually lost, rather than won. What I mean by that is games are mostly won because of the opponent making mistakes during crucial moments.
I don't think I was a fine game coach I think I was a good practice coach.
