I do not like football, which I think of as a game in which two tractors approach each other from opposite directions and collide. Besides, I have contempt for a game in which players have to wear so much equipment. Men play basketball in their underwear, which seems just right to me.

Sure, luck means a lot in football. Not having a good quarterback is bad luck.

Baseball players are smarter than football players. How often do you see a baseball team penalized for too many men on the field?

You have to play this game like somebody just hit your mother with a two-by-four. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â âDan Birdwell
Football combines the two worst things about America: it is violence punctuated by committee meetings. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â âGeorge F. Will
If youâre mad at your kid, you can either raise him to be a nose tackle or send him out to play on the freeway. Itâs about the same. Â

Being in politics is like being a football coach. You have to be smart enough to understand the game, and dumb enough to think itâs important.
                                                                                    â Eugene McCarthy
When I went to Catholic high school in Philadelphia, we just had one coach for football and basketball. He took all of us who turned out and had us run through a forest. The ones who ran into the trees were on the football team. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â âGeorge Raveling
Baseball is what we were. Football is what we have become.

They say footballâs a matter of life and death â but itâs more important than that.      âBill Shankly
[naviga:h2 style="margin-top:0in;line-height:10.0pt"]Football linemen are motivated by a more complicated, self- determining series of factors than the simple fear of humiliation in the public gaze, which is the emotion that galvanizes the backs and receivers. âMerlin Olsen [naviga:h2 style="margin-top:0in;line-height:10.0pt"]When I played pro football, I never set out to hurt anyone deliberately - unless it was, you know, important, like a league game or something. âDick Butkus [naviga:h2 style="margin-top:0in;line-height:10.0pt"]If a man watches three football games in a row, he should be declared legally dead.  âErma Bombeck
