Football is, after all, a wonderful way to get rid of your aggressions without going to jail for it.

You don't get many chances to pay back what's been done for you. Take them.

Perfect preparation prevents piss-poor performance.

The five big mistakes in football are the fumble, the interception, the penalty, the badly called play, the blocked punt—and most of these originate with the quarterback. Find a mistake-proof quarterback and you have this game won.

It's never an upset if the so-called underdog has all along considered itself the better team.

Without winners, there would be no civilization.

I am not very smart, but I recognize that I am not very smart.
