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!

GOLF QUOTES
.
Golf combines two favorite American pastimes: taking long walks and hitting things with a stick.
~ P. J. O'Rourke
.
Golf is a game of expletives not deleted.
~ Dr. Irving A. Gladstone
.
You have to make corrections in your game a little bit at a time. It's like taking your medicine. A few aspirin will probably cure what ails you, but the whole bottle might just kill you.
~ Harvey Penick
.
I may be the only golfer never to have broken a single putter, if you don't count the one I twisted into a loop and threw into a bush.
~ Thomas Boswell
.
If you pick up a golfer and hold it close to your ear, like a conch shell, and listen, you will hear an alibi.
~ Fred Beck
.
I say this without reservations whatsoever: It is impossible to outplay an opponent you can't outthink.
~ Lawson Little
.
Give me a man with big hands, big feet, and no brains and I will make a golfer out of him!
~ Walter Hagen
.
Anyone who criticizes a golf course is like a person invited to a house for dinner who, on leaving, tells the host that the food was lousy.
~ Gary Player
.
A golf course is the epitome of all that is purely transitory in the universe, a space not to dwell in, but to get over as quickly as possible!
~ Jean Giraudoux
.
Like life, golf can be humbling. However, little good comes from brooding about mistakes we've made. The next shot, in golf or life, is the big one!
~ Grantland Rice
.
Baffling late-life discovery: Golfers wear those awful clothes on purpose.
~ Herb Caen
