Handed Players

Famous quotes containing the words handed and/or players:

“sailing
In sunlight smiling under their goggles swapping batons back and
forth
And He who jumped without a chute and was handed one by a diving
Buddy.”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)

“The whole idea of image is so confused. On the one hand, Madison Avenue is worried about the image of the players in a tennis tour. On the other hand, sports events are often sponsored by the makers of junk food, beer, and cigarettes. What’s the message when an athlete who works at keeping her body fit is sponsored by a sugar-filled snack that does more harm than good?”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
