SPECIAL EDITORIAL NOTE FROM SPORTS_NUT, 2/26/2011
.
Welcome to the retirement edition of Funny Sports Quotes.
.
The Funny Sports Quotes blog was created in 11/2007 after I could see I could become a blogger very easily using Google's 3-step process for creating a blog online.
.
For me, like most, work is not my idea of a fun experience, so I had to choose the topic that I would most enjoy pursuing and that, for me, was finding and posting funny sports quotes for entertaining and, in some cases, educating an audience on facets of sports even the most ardent sports fans may not have been aware of.
.
At the same time, I decided to compile a database of funny sports quotes that sports fans and quote fans could visit for "one-stop" shopping, thereby helping them to avoid the need to search elsewhere for sports quotes.
.
So, from 11/2007 until 2/2011. I have compiled quotes on the Funny Sports Quotes blog and its sister blog, FSQuotes, that is accessible only from the Funny Sports Quotes blog.
.
As of 2/26/2011, I believe I have achieved my objective first set in 11/2007, which signals for me the end of my funny sports quotes database project.
.
Kindly note that I have already made the last post (SI Swimsuit) to the blog, shut off further entries to Comments, and I will shut off the email address sports.quotes@gmail.com on 03/14/2011.
.
Also note that many features previously cited on this page have been removed, so that a bare-bones FSQ remains for your future reference.
.
I do hope that my venture was successful in bringing a smile to your face or a skip to your step, since that was all FSQ was created for, your entertainment and pleasure.
.
In closing, I wish you and yours, Godspeed!

BASEBALL QUOTES
.
Baseball has been called the National Pastime. It's just the kind of game anyone deserves who has nothing better to do than try to pass his time. -- Andrew Rooney
.
After fifteen years of facing pitchers you don't really get over them. They're devious. They're the only players in the game allowed to cheat. They throw illegal pitches and they sneak foreign substances on the ball. They can inflict pain whenever they wish. And, they're the only ones on the diamond who have high ground. That's symbolic. You know what they tell you in a war - 'take the high ground first.' -- Richie Ashburn
.
I feel terrible about what they do to the umpires. The first time they go out on the field the band strikes up "Oh, say, can you see." -- Goodman Ace
.
Bat Day seems like a good idea, but I question the advisability of giving bats in the Bronx to 40,000 Yankee fans. -- Aaron Bacall
.
Ralph Hunker's daddy made the first baseball glove in history. Made it out of genuine cowhide. Of course, he cheated a little. He made it out of the part of the cow that already had the fingers in it. -- Pat Buttram
.
I'm flattered that so many baseball people think I'm a Hall of Famer. But what's hard to believe is how one-hundred and fifty plus people have changed their minds about me since I became eligible, because I haven't had a base hit since then. -- Richie Ashburn
.
I watch a lot of baseball on the radio. - Gerald Ford
.
It was too bad I wasn't a second baseman; then I'd probably have seen a lot more of my husband. - Karolyn Rose, ex-wife of Pete Rose
