I’ve been writing since I was sixteen. At first, I wrote mostly short stories and poetry. The first thing I ever had published was a poem about a football game. It was printed in my local newspaper.
How can you go from a free-flowing football game for 90 minutes to stopping for one or two minutes for a decision?
We wanted Peyton to have a chance to win another Super Bowl. We have a chance to honor him like we did other players that came back. He’s one of the greatest players. In the end. you look for a great football game, and that’s what you hope for.
God ain’t got nothing to do with winning a damn football game.
A single Dallas Cowboys football game uses up as much electricity as the entire nation of Liberia in those same three hours – one reason the globe, if looked at from a certain height, is a cluster of lights surrounded by enormous patches of dark.
I watch HGTV like a maniac, and when it’s bad, it’s like some crazy college guy watching a football game.
We wanted Peyton to have a chance to win another Super Bowl. We have a chance to honor him like we did other players that came back. He’s one of the greatest players. In the end. you look for a great football game, and that’s what you hope for.
Any football game, you can be hit one way or another. It’s not the safest sport that we play; it’s a beautifully violent game, and that’s what, in part, I love about it.
I don’t think it’s fair to 12-, 13- and 14-year-olds to say ‘Show us you’re a winner right now!’ Winning isn’t everything. I’ll never buy that thing that if a boy loses a football game, he’s a loser in life.
High on the list of things I’ve been meaning to do since I moved to New York in 2004 is going up to a Columbia University football game.
I applaud anyone who comes to a football game, given the finances – it’s not an easy thing to do.
If you’re giving me tickets to the football game, baseball game or hockey game, I’m taking the tickets to the hockey game. For me, it’s by far the most fun sport to go and watch live and be part of. I just don’t know why it doesn’t translate as well on TV.
There’s nothing more pathetic than listening to a football game over the Internet, but I’ve done that.
My folks, I don’t think my mom or my dad ever missed a little league game or a football game.
There’s times in a football game where a team goes for a big TD pass. If you don’t take a risk like that, you’re not going to win.
When you have a script, and you’re discussing what it can be, and who going to play what role, that’s a kind of like a fantasy football game. You can imagine these different dream teams interpreting these characters that only exist in your head.
The Georgia Dome was my home field, brother. There’s no question about it. I played my first football game there as an Atlanta Falcon.
I was born in the Ottawa General Hospital right after the Gray Cup Football Game in 1939. Six months later, I was backpacked into the Quebec bush. I grew up in and out of the bush, in and out of Ottawa, Sault Ste. Marie and Toronto.
Neutrality is for referees in a football game. You have to take a stand. The really, really good journalists always take a stand with those who have no power, with those who have no rights, and with those who have no voice.
It’s funny, you’ll probably find me more often watching soccer than a football game, because I get enough football in my daily schedule.
Me and Coach Koetter have a great relationship, first and foremost, and we’ve got the same goal when we go out there on that football field – and that’s to win the football game.
The sound of a golf game is very different than the sound of a football game.
My perfect first date? Maybe a concert or a football game. That would be my ideal first date, but would the girl like it? I don’t know.
That is a football game, you don’t know what is going to happen when you play.
I don’t think it’s fair to 12-, 13- and 14-year-olds to say ‘Show us you’re a winner right now!’ Winning isn’t everything. I’ll never buy that thing that if a boy loses a football game, he’s a loser in life.
