Athletic IQ

Postby BMan1113VR » Tue Aug 26, 2003 12:57 pm

Chicago Cubs outfielder Andre Dawson on being a role model: "I wan' all dem

kids to do what I do, to look up to me. I wan' all the kids to copulate me."

...............................................................



New Orleans Saint RB George Rogers when asked about the upcoming season: "I

want to rush for 1,000 or 1,500 yards, whichever comes first."

................................................................



And, upon hearing Joe Jacobi of the 'Skins say: "I'd run over my own mother

to win the Super Bowl," Matt Millen of the Raiders said: "To win, I'd run

over Joe's Mom, too."



................................................................



Torrin Polk, University of Houston receiver, on his coach, John Jenkins: "He

treats us like men. He lets us wear earrings."



................................................................



Football commentator and former player Joe Theismann, 1996: "Nobody in

football should be called a genius. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein."



................................................................



Senior basketball player at the University of Pittsburgh: "I'm going to

graduate on time, no matter how long it takes." (now that is beautiful)



................................................................



Bill Peterson, a Florida State football coach: "You guys line up

alphabetically by height." And, "You guys pair up in groups of three, then

line up in a circle."



................................................................



Boxing promoter Dan Duva on Mike Tyson hooking up again with promoter Don

King: "Why would anyone expect him to come out smarter? He went to prison

for three years, not Princeton."



................................................................



Stu Grimson, Chicago Blackhawks left wing, explaining why he keeps a color

photo of himself above his locker: "That's so when I forget how to spell my

name, I can still find my clothes."



................................................................



Lou Duva, veteran boxing trainer, on the Spartan training regime of

heavyweight Andrew Golota: "He's a guy who gets up at six o'clock in the

morning regardless of what time it is."



................................................................



Chuck Nevitt, North Carolina State basketball player, explaining to Coach

Jim Valvano why he appeared nervous at practice: "My sister's expecting a

baby, and I don't know if I'm going to be an uncle or an aunt." (I wonder if

his IQ ever hit room temperature in January)



................................................................



Frank Layden, Utah Jazz president, on a former player: "I told him, 'Son,

what is it with you? Is it ignorance or apathy?' He said, 'Coach, I don't

know and I don't care.'"

................................................................



Shelby Metcalf, basketball coach at Texas A&M, recounting what he told a

player who received four F's and one D: "Son, looks to me like you're

spending too much time on one subject."
Sincerely,
Me
