Blue/sports

Famous quotes containing the words blue and/or sports:

    It was beginning winter,
    An in-between time,
    The landscape still partly brown:
    The bones of weeds kept swinging in the wind,
    Above the blue snow.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    ...I didn’t come to this with any particular cachet. I was just a person who grew up in the United States. And when I looked around at the people who were sportscasters, I thought they were just people who grew up in the United States, too. So I thought, Why can’t a woman do it? I just assumed everyone else would think it was a swell idea.
    Gayle Gardner, U.S. sports reporter. As quoted in Sports Illustrated, p. 85 (June 17, 1991)
