As much as I hate him I think Bill Belicheck definately added himself to the list today. When asked about the Panthers being so critical of Moss in the post game yesterday he replied, "that's sure a lot of talk coming from a team who just lost another game." That is priceless!

 

Some others I love include:

 

What the hell is going on out there?

-Lambardi

 

Practice!

-Allen Iverson

 

I knew every time they scored we had to score or we would lose.

-Old HS teammate of mine

In 1996, Henderson’s first season with San Diego, he boarded the team bus and was looking for a seat. Steve Finley said, “You have tenure, sit wherever you want.” Henderson looked at Finley and said, “Ten years? Ricky’s been playing at least 16, 17 years.”

 

 

He called San Diego GM Kevin Towers and left the following message: “This is Rickey calling on behalf of Rickey. Rickey wants to play baseball.”

 

 

This one happened in Seattle. Rickey struck out and as the next batter was walking past him, he heard Henderson say, “Don’t worry, Rickey, you’re still the best.”

 

A reporter asked Henderson if Ken Caminiti’s estimate that 50 percent of Major League players were taking steroids was accurate. His response was, “Well, Rickey’s not one of them, so that’s 49 percent right there.”

 

During a contract holdout with Oakland in the early 1990s, Henderson said, “If they want to pay me like Mike Gallego, I’ll play like Gallego.”

 

"It gave me no chance. He (Nolan Ryan) just blew it (strikeout #5,000) by me. But its an honor. I'll have another paragraph in all the baseball books. I'm already in the books three or four times."

 

"They kept that crap a secret from me ... I wish they had told me. My God, could you imagine Rickey on 'roids? Oh, baby, look out!" — Henderson on steroids, The New Yorker, Sept. 12, 2005 :lol:

John McKay when he was coaching the then hapless Tampa Bay expansion team, a reported asked him how he felt about his team's execution. He replied "Im in favor of it"!!

 

I dont remember the coach but during a post game interview after a very bad loss he said "the only difference between me and General Custer at Little Big Horn is he didnt have to watch the film after"!!!

"I thought we'd lost it already. Then I looked down and saw Jimmy Boeheim sitting on the other bench and I knew we had a shot."

-Bob Knight

 

After being asked why he went for a two-point conversion late in the fourth quarter with a big lead against Michigan:

- Joe Theisman

 

"I've never had major knee surgery on any other part of my body."

- Bill Peterson (Florida State coach)

 

"Sure there have been a lot of injuries and deaths in boxing - but none of them serious."
