There have been so many great moments in golf that you even forget some of them.

The devoted golfer is an anguished soul who has learned a lot about putting, just as an avalanche victim has learned a lot about snow.

Until Sammy Baugh - pro football in Texas was a one-paragraph story on the third page of the Monday sports section.

Every golfer has at least 14 enemies: his clubs.

A sportswriter's life means never sitting with your wife or family at the games. Still working after everyone has gone to the party... Digging beneath a coach's lies, not to forget those of athletic directors and general managers and owners of pro teams. Keeping a confidence. Risking it.

Baseball would be a better game if more third basemen got hit in the mouth by line drivers.

Laughter is the only thing that'll cut trouble down to a size where you can talk to it.
