I just want to exhaust every opportunity to play and obviously try to play in a game like this – the Super Bowl.
Some of us shorten our names or our noses or both… We Jews can be extremely neurotic and are inclined to become easily depressed. Most Jews seldom say, ‘Have a nice day’ or even have one. To be honest, I’ve never heard a Jew say that. We’re just not that optimistic. Life is neither a bed of roses nor a bowl of cherries.
Obviously, if I start bowling more, I will get better. To bowl more, I must be effective whenever I get to bowl – it doesn’t matter if it is the 40th or the 100th over.
I can’t say I’m a huge sports fan, so I usually watch the game for the commercials, and I go to Super Bowl parties for the snacks.
My joking answer to this question is that I leave a bowl of milk out on the back porch every night for the Idea Fairy. In the morning, the milk is gone and there’s a brand-new shiny idea by the bowl.
Personally, I enjoy a bowl of brown rice for breakfast most of the time.
I’m bad with breakfast as I find it unlocks the eating door for the rest of the day, but sometimes I love a bowl of porridge with flaked coconut, crushed pistachios and a drizzle of honey.
What the Super Bowl did for us was give us a sense of urgency.
You wouldn’t want to see the size of the check that I would write if it would for sure get the Dallas Cowboys a Super Bowl.
I had to get some things right in my personal life. And once I got my family on the same page, to understand who I am and what I do for a living, I asked my oldest daughter, ‘What do you think about Daddy coming back?’ And she said, ‘I didn’t think you were done. I want you to win the Super Bowl.’
I am jewelry and objects together. This is the Elsa Peretti name to me. It is a very good balance for me to try and create with the person in mind or with the space in mind – to imagine a bowl of fruit or something for water. It is a little bit yin and yang.
There are a lot of misconceptions that we can’t play fast bowling or we can’t bowl fast. We should have mixed matches. I have also played a lot of matches against boys because that’s how we train.
When Jim Irsay called me five years ago, he told me, ‘I want you to be our coach and help us win the Super Bowl.’ He told me, ‘We are going win it the right way. We are going to win it with great guys; win it with class and dignity. We are going to win it in a way that will make Indianapolis proud.’
We knew what was going on with Spygate. We were in football mode, and it didn’t impact our day-to-day. There’s so much noise on the outside – ‘You’re cheaters, you’re this, you’re that’ – but the easiest way to settle that is to go 18-0 and go to the Super Bowl.
The history and tradition of the Rose Bowl, if that doesn’t get you excited, I don’t know what will.
If you’re doing takeout, try to get the healthiest takeout you can. And just take it out of the plastic, right? Get your grandma’s old china or get a fancy little bowl, and put the takeout in the bowl and light a candle.
Between 50 overs and 20 overs, there is a big difference, because there is 30 extra overs of fielding and six extra overs to bowl, and that can take its toll.
Bangkok’s street food culture may have recently been forced to clean up its act but personally, we think there’s nothing better than a steaming bowl of noodles eaten within tripping distance of traffic, washed down with a cold beer, of course.
Life is not a bowl full of cherries, there’s good and bad stuff.
Very few of us have any idea whatsoever of what life is like living in a goldfish bowl, except, of course, for those of us who are goldfish.
I did play flag football. I actually got my lip busted. My team was really good; we won first place in the season, and won the Super Bowl. I was one of the defense guys. I was really good.
One of the reasons I connect to the Super Bowl is that I approach my shows like an athlete.
In the nets, I would see spinners like Piyush Chawla bhai or Amit Mishra bhai running in to bowl. I decided I am going to change my run-up and begin to run in to bowl.
To transfer food into a bowl from a pan that you’ve just cooked in, it’s a loss of energy; it’s wasteful. People think it’s very sophisticated, I don’t think it’s so smart.
We don’t need a melting pot in this country, folks. We need a salad bowl. In a salad bowl, you put in the different things. You want the vegetables – the lettuce, the cucumbers, the onions, the green peppers – to maintain their identity. You appreciate differences.
I want to win the damn Super Bowl. That’s what drives me.
Celebrating Christmas without subscribing to Christianity is like watching the Super Bowl without watching a regular season game. Some people watch the Super Bowl for the commercials; others watch it for the halftime show.
The Super Bowl is a game. Life is for real. What I went through helped me get to where I am today. I won’t forget. I can’t forget. Because a man who forgets his past sometimes loses his soul and forgets where to go in the future.
Sometimes I just get over-excited. I see the pitch and I think, ‘I have to get this wicket.’ When I am just looking to bowl, I am calm and composed, and most of the time I get it right. The ball lands where I want it to.
Standing at the end of your run with the ball in your hand preparing to bowl the first ball of an Ashes series is an amazing feeling.
I had one nanny who made me sit in front of a bowl of porridge for three or four days running when I refused to eat it. I remember being very unhappy about that.
It’s kind of ironic that the only Super Bowl I’ve been to as a fan was when the Rams played the Titans. I was at that game. My grandpa, when he was still involved in the NFL, he got me tickets for my birthday.
The Super Bowl wasn’t that big. It was just a game.
I want to – more than anything – to create a moment that people will never forget. Not for me, but for themselves. That’s what I remember about great Super Bowl performances in the past, when you really get lost in the moment with your family.
Buttermilk’s palate-cleansing tartness is one reason it’s used a lot in southern India, where meals often end with a small bowl of the stuff served with plain rice and pickles.
We have to keep in mind things like having five fielders inside the circle always. We have to decide who has to be inside, who has to bowl to which batsman and what the situation is.
The year we went to our first Super Bowl in 1992, we were the youngest team in football. We played in the Super Bowl against a team that had a wealth of playoff experience and Super Bowl experience, and we dominated that football game.
You should never say ‘D’Brickashaw’ and ‘bust’ in the same sentence. You should never even think that. It should be D’Brickashaw, Pro Bowl, D’Brickashaw, Jets, Super Bowl.
Having myself bowled in the early stages of the innings, with field restrictions in place and two men perforce required in catching positions, I know what it takes to bowl on unresponsive tracks against quality batsmen.
I spent a year slaving over a hot rollergrill in a Metrodome concession stand and watched the World Series there – and a Super Bowl and a Final Four. I can honestly say – regardless of outcome – that I left every game floating on air.
People are forever knocking kicking, but it’s not easy, believe me. Ask Scott Norwood when he missed the field goal in the Super Bowl.
Someone pointed out that Dick Enberg and Curt Gowdy are the only two ever to call a Super Bowl and a Final Four. So I’ll be the third. I get a kick out of putting my name in the same sentence as those other two giants.
I have this nook at Milk Bar that’s my office, and my desk was just full of every box of Kellogg’s cereal, and at different times during the day, I would open up a box, eat a bowl of cereal, and I live in a world of Post-it notes, so I would leave tasting notes on all the cereal.
My dad cut my hair once – I wanted a bob and he gave me a bowl cut. That was a tough few years.
It’s not often you get to sit in front of Nicole Kidman in your boxers with a big bowl of spaghetti.
No, no, I don’t watch football. The last time I tried watching was the last Super Bowl. The problem I have is, you know, the graphic nature of my imagination; when I watch and see them meeting head onto head, helmet onto helmet, what flashes through my mind is what’s going on in their brains. It’s like torture to me.
As a football player, as an athlete, as a competitor, that dream of playing the Super Bowl… I was never going to lose that.
I want to bowl fast till I retire.
Ever crack an egg into simmering water only to watch the white spread out and form wispy tentacles? It happened to me until I came across this game-changing fix: Break the egg into a sieve set over a bowl. The watery outer edge of the white will drain through, leaving the thicker white and yolk intact.
I will bowl defensively if I have to.
The one thing disappointing I had coming out of college was not playing in the Rose Bowl.
My worst hairstyle was a bowl cut parted down the middle. It was the ’90s. It was what you did. I had that from 4th grade until freshman year in high school. I’m glad the pictures exist. I had great hair back then.
T20 is generally the fun side of cricket. You’ve got to have a sense of humour. Some days you can turn up and get whacked. Next game turn up, bowl the same and you don’t go for many. You have to take it as it comes.
