fumble

Gentlemen, it is better to have died as a small boy than to fumble this football.

— John Heisman

Plays

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:39:25 -0400

I haven't seen a new football play since I was in high school. You have just so many holes in a line and you have eleven men playing, and there's only so many ways you can go through those holes, and those ways have been used for forty, fifty years.

— Red Grange

warfare

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:38:24 -0400

Pro football is like nuclear warfare. There are no winners, only survivors.

— Frank Gifford

what the game can offer

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:34:57 -0400

I've felt sorry for young people who didn't have an opportunity to play football, because I know what the game can offer.

— Hayden Fry

President Ford

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:33:25 -0400

I had pro offers from the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers, who were pretty hard up for linemen in those days. If I had gone into professional football the name Jerry Ford might have been a household word today.

— Gerald R. Ford

Contact Sport

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:32:28 -0400

Football isn't a contact sport, it's a collision sport. Dancing is a contact sport.

— Duffy Daugherty

Uniquely American

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:28:59 -0400

There are so many things about playing football that seem to me uniquely American. Anybody can succeed, anybody can play, but you've got to work hard to do it.

— Dean Cain

Errors

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:28:13 -0400

Football is a game of errors. The team that makes the fewest errors in a game usually wins.

— Paul Brown

Coal Miners

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:26:23 -0400

Football is a game designed to keep coal miners off the streets.

— Jimmy Breslin

Sharks

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:24:49 -0400

Sharks are as tough as those football fans who take their shirts off during games in Chicago in January, only more intelligent.

— Dave Barry

NFL Films

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 17:21:42 -0400

NFL films are a real big influence of mine. It's all 35mm material shot on all the NFL teams. It's a fleet of cinematographers that follow the different teams and then I believe that footage is sold to the different teams. Highlight tapes are made and, as a kid, we always had to watch these highlight tapes around lunch time at football camps and stuff.

— Matthew Barney
