I probably prefer Spanish football to the others. It’s very technical, the way they play; they keep the ball well, and whenever Spurs have played against Spanish teams in the past, they’ve always made it difficult for us.
The pressure is on the big teams.
When it comes to talking about beating certain teams, we can be narrow-minded when we need to look at the bigger picture.
I generally use ‘threat intelligence’ when I’m talking about a product packaged and sold by a dedicated commercial entity and ‘information sharing’ as something that happens between security teams at trusted parties without renumeration.
A picture of me as this super affable sales guy gets painted, but in actuality, I’m pretty driven by hard work and love working with teams. What people discount is, I grew up in a very small blue-collar town in Massachusetts and have basically scrapped my way career wise.
When you’re watching from the bench, you can pick up on everything – where guys like to shoot the ball from, how teams defend the pick-and-roll, which big men are good at hedging the screen and so on.
It’s football all day on Sunday. I wish we had football every day; that would make me way happier. Why can’t we have that? You’ve got all these teams! Why can’t we just play a Monday game, a Tuesday game, a Wednesday game?
When I was playing, there were only eight teams in each league, and you didn’t have any playoffs.
What we have to do is to find a solution that the interests of the national teams are respecting the interests of the clubs. And also the clubs they shall respect the interests and the aspirations of national teams.
The Premier League is the best competition in the world, and it’s not easy to win a league with great teams like Man United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, and Arsenal as rivals.
We have to get better at that. All of the Stanley Cup winning teams throughout the past few seasons, when they needed to play defense, they did it. If you can play defense, that’s when you know it’s game over.
My mom did a great job because ever since I was born, she would put me into any type of sporting activity with hearing teams.

I have long been one of those tedious people who rails against the coronation of ‘student-athletes.’ I have heard the argument that big-time athletics bring in loads of money to universities. I don’t believe the money goes anywhere other than back into the sports teams, but that’s another story.
Teams like Ferrari, McLaren and Mercedes are going to be very, very motivated to go for the titles.
I’m always going to be around the game of basketball. I plan to keep my options open as a player moving forward, but that’s not coaching. Maybe front office work, working with teams and spreading the game, maybe teaching the game to young people, that’s something that’s a very big passion.
In the past, Google has used teams of humans to ‘read’ its street address images – in essence, to render images into actionable data. But using neural network technology, the company has trained computers to extract that data automatically – and with a level of accuracy that meets or beats human operators.
I never really considered myself much of a feminist until I left Wall Street. I did all the right things – such as put together gender-diverse teams – but feminism wasn’t deep in my bones.
For reasons that baffle me still, my high school sports coaches put me in the first division of the rugby, cricket, and soccer teams.
There are guys on different teams across the league who are bench guys, and guys who that – that’s their role, to be on the bench encouraging guys to play hard and get good minutes.

You’ve just got to keep working hard, keep plugging along. That’s how great teams win more trophies.
I would prefer to play for and against an attacking team, but I am now used to playing against defensive teams.
The only thing we know for sure about superiority in sports in the United States of America in the 20th century is that Bill Russell and the Boston Celtics teams he led stand alone as the ultimate winners.
Of course Lothar Matthaus is always going to be associated with the 1990 World Cup. But does everyone immediately remember what titles Gunter Netzer, Johan Cruyff or Luis Figo won? Or do they also think about how those players played their football and how they led their teams?
I was heavily into sport from 10 to 15, I was in all the teams, and it was everything to me. But I was very young for my school year and when puberty kicked in for my classmates I got left behind.
My Eighth District, like others, counts on these family businesses and their teams working hard to support their families and aid their communities. As retailers, these teams often bring different or unique products to the marketplace.
I don’t really believe in bogey teams. The results might just be a coincidence, but we need to make sure the same thing doesn’t happen at Wembley.
Although NFL teams have common interests such as promoting the NFL brand, they are still separate, profit-making entities, and their interests in licensing team trademarks are not necessarily aligned.
It’s a responsibility when you have won as much as I have done, as much as the teams I have played for have done: then the fans are waiting for more.
I have played on many teams throughout my career, and I know when a team has the tools, and the right positive attitude towards winning.
It’s been humbling to have multiple teams interested in me and have people talking about my free agency and what I should do.
Sometimes, in the last minute, against big teams… you never expect you have the chance to win, but there is that ‘garra’ that everyone talks about.
The Rockies and Diamondbacks are both very exciting teams who are fighting for recognition.
It is hard to say no to PSG – as with all teams capable of winning the Champions League, There is always uncertainty in football.
The real guys that I knew were really cool people, who I played basketball with and traveled with on teams and knew their families and knew that they love their family. They just happen to do something that wasn’t all the way legal, but it was a part of their life, and you knew that they hustled.
You pressure, you want possession, you want to attack. Some teams can’t or don’t pass the ball. What are you playing for? What’s the point? That’s not football. Combine, pass, play. That’s football – for me, at least.
The midpoint of the NBA season comes a little after the turn of the calendar year. As we settle into the new promises we’ve made to ourselves, basketball teams are busy evaluating how the promises they made to themselves over the summer are going.
I’ve given it all from my combine to my pro day to my meetings with teams.
Countries all around the world, starting with the U.K., have started behavioural insight teams, often referred to as nudge units. And they seem to be doing lots of good.

We try to play football; don’t forget it, right. My teams always in my career try to play football. I cannot control the other circumstances.
I am in favor of saying, ‘Okay, let’s get teams of educators and experts in certain disciplines to say, ‘What are the basic things that we think are an essential part of an early education for people?” Put them together and create, as well as possible, a set of goals and tools to learn those things.
The big teams will want to avoid Liverpool. Everyone knows we are a very strong side.
I think there’s a lot of different ways to win. You’ve seen teams that win championships with a super-duper star like Kobe Bryant. Those championship teams with Michael Jordan certainly had a great, great player.
The game of baseball is better when the Dodgers are playing well, just like when the Yankees are playing well, or the Cubs, the Phillies, the big-name teams.
With German teams, they always sit together – there are no phones on the table.
When other teams fear you, that’s a big difference.
Indian cricket fans are manic-depressive in their treatment of their favorite teams. They elevate players to god-like status when their team performs well, ignoring obvious weaknesses; but when it loses, as any team must, the fall is equally steep, and every weakness is dissected.
Good players on good teams don’t get too high, don’t get too low. They’re even-keeled, and they go about their business the right way.
The world is a nested space, and so we have our brain as a person, and people are members of teams, and teams are part of business units, and business units are parts of corporations, and corporations are part of industries, which are part of economies.
