Black Players

Famous quotes containing the words black and/or players:

    a long shot at long odds, a black mare
    By Hatred out of Envy by Despair.
    James Vincent Cunningham (1911–1985)

    People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.
    Don Delillo (b. 1926)
