"In sports… you play from the time you’re eight years old, and then you’re done forever." ― Joe Montana Topic(s): Sports More From Joe Montana "Yeah, I think it motivates you as people start to count you out. It doesn’t make you play any harder, because every time you go out on the field you give 110 percent, but it does give you more of an edge mentally, knowing that you were in the same situation, because in sports you always find yourself behind." "Winners, I am convinced, imagine their dreams first. They want it with all their heart and expect it to come true. There is, I believe, no other way to live." "Man, coaching is a hard job, and it requires a lot of time… I hear stories from coaches who tell me that players call them in the middle of the night not knowing where they parked their car."

I’ll act goofy at times around my wife and my son, around my own family. I like to have fun in general."― Steve Blake "I always tell people that our sports aren’t that dangerous."― Shaun White
