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!

NFL FOOTBALL QUOTES

"That Jackie Robinson is the fastest man I've ever seen in uniform.... The only time I was worried about the game was when Robinson was in there."
– Chicago Bears defensive end Dick Plasman, after playing in an All-Star game against a team of collegians that included Jackie Robinson, 1941. Robinson played professional baseball rather than football because no NFL team would hire a black player in the early 1940s.

If I have to integrate heaven, I don't want to go."
– Woody Strode, the first black football player to integrate in the postwar NFL, 1971
.
"If Jesus were alive today, he'd probably be at the Super Bowl."
– Dr. Norman Vincent Peale
.
"We're going to win Sunday, I'll guarantee you."
– New York Jets quarterback Joe Namath, before Super Bowl III, 1969

– Paul McCartney, 2005
