A comic will always be more 'personal' than a DVD or CD, both of which require electronic 'players' to decode their content. With comics, the reader is the player so the engagement with the material is always more fundamental and dynamic. Reading comics is a much less passive activity than consuming CDs and DVDs.
I find young kids. I enjoy coaching and enjoy making them better players.
The players are looking forward to it because they'd like revenge
Tendulkar is a world class player and a great ambassador for the game. As a youngster I watched the games and that's where all my dreams started. You watch Tendulkar on TV and you think that I want to be like that one day
I like to be able to control which players I'm working with. Because it doesn't matter how good a coach you are if the guys you're working with think they already know it all. You need a response, you need to feel they're trying. I want players who are always striving to improve.
I must be the only player in the world who ever injured himself for a tournament by stepping on a shell on the beach. I don't know what I'm going to do.
If there is any bad feeling I hope it's against me and not my players - I may put my tin helmet on without them seeing!
My saddest decision in football was leaving Paul Gascoigne out of the 1998 World Cup finals. But he wasn't fit enough and once that decision is made, as a manager and a group of players, you forget about who isn't there and focus on the job.
The question is, do we have a shadow government? And, if we do, who are those intelligent minority that is -- that is guiding us through? And where are they guiding us to? If you skip past all of the puppets and the strings, if you stop looking at the puppets themselves, you have to see who's behind the puppets. Who is choosing the puppets and the players? Who's the puppet master? George Soros.
In tactics, no information is better than too much....because at some point the players stop reading and stop thinking.
We don't have any splits here. The players country is Liverpool Football Club and their language is football.
I'm more of a rhythmic player. My soloing is pretty much limited to playing slide guitar.
The clock struck half past two. In the little office at the back of Mr. McKechnie's bookshop, Gordon--Gordon Comstock, last member of the Comstock family, aged twenty-nine and rather moth-eaten already--lounged across the table, pushing a fourpenny packet of Player's Weights open and shut with his thumb.
When your best player puts it on the line every day, the other guys can't cut corners
There's the whole significance of Krishna as the flute player who awakens our consciousness. It doesn't necessarily have to be a flute because for me it was a sitar or a guitar or even Elvis Presley doing "Heartbreak Hotel." It was like Krishna's flute calling me somewhere. It's just really simple when we can remember.
Vivutur ingenio, that damn'd motto there Seduced me first to me a wicked player.
People who are qualified are symphonic orchestra players and jazz musicians; they're qualified to do what they do. Rock stars are lucky. It's a combination of right time, right place and having certain genes or a gimmick or whatever, but it's really not anything more than sugar. It tastes good and goes away fast.
Palmer was the big gun as far as getting the tour to where it is today. He was the most charismatic player ever. He did everything the public wanted him to do.
When you join this club as a young player you know you've got a mountain to climb to get yourself into the first team. (on Manchester United)
There are some agents who do a good job looking after players but there are others who stifle and mollycoddle them.
Will any club dominate again? Are any club set up to dominate again? When you look at the clubs that have dominated they've usually got a core five, six or seven players who can stay there for 10 to 15 years. There is a continuity with the management. I'm not quite sure at the moment that I'm seeing the decision making at any of the top clubs to be able to suggest that domination is actually achievable again. Maybe in the future, but I'm not quite sure it'll happen very soon.
This is a tragedy for the players. Their careers are short and this is money and opportunity they'll never get back.
The fact Jeff Teague has never been an All-Star is puzzling to me because he's certainly an All-Star-caliber player.
If players are performing for you, their age shouldn't really matter, especially because the older players can bring their experience to the table.
Kim Kardashian is single again. Hey, great. Maybe that will give the NBA players something to do during the lockout.
