Famous quotes containing the words football and/or team:
“In football they measure forty-yard sprints. Nobody runs forty yards in basketball. Maybe you run the ninety-four feet of the court; then you stop, not on a dime, but on Miss Liberty’s torch. In football you run over somebody’s face.”
—Donald Hall (b. 1928)
“Once a word is spoken, a team of four horse cannot retake it.”
—Chinese proverb.
