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!

Super Bowl 2010 Media Day Highlights:
.
Love the Super Bowl Shuffle? Entertainment Tonight delivered the 2010 version, showcasing several Colts and Saints players in its 'Super Bowl Idol' contest. Though official results have yet to be announced, ESPN reported Saints' tight end Tyler Lorenzen took home the coveted award.
.
Colts' coach Jim Caldwell took home the award for Most Educated Quote when he recited several lines from "Invictus", the William Ernest Henley poem quoted liberally in Clint Eastwood's recent movie with the same title.
"In the fell clutch of circumstance/ I have not winced nor cried aloud/ Under the bludgeonings of chance/ My head is bloody, but unbowed."
.
No reporter in attendance created more buzz than Bengals' wide receiver Chad Ochocinco, who came with a crew of NFL players in the debut of the Ochocinco News Network. ONN's highlight came not from its reporting but from Ochocinco's Twitter feed, where he offered such gems as:
"Please mainstream media don't be mad at me for doing the job you guys have failed to do correctly, giving the fans what they really want"
.
ESPN's John Banks wrested the Random Piece of Information Award from Colts punter Pat McAfee, who admitted he's worn the same $6 diamond earrings since high school.
.
Quote of the Day: Peyton Manning on Drew Brees' golf game:
"He can bust it. He can flat-out pound it. I know he was incredibly long in college and I'm sure he is even longer now."
.
One more tweet from Ochocinco, this time in response to criticism from ESPN's First Take:
"Man this media thing is really cool, for those hating on first take id be the reason you get fired if I wanted to work there. Child please".

.
You say you want more quotes?
.
Well, I've got more quotes right here!!!
.
Proof There Is Such a Thing as a Stupid Question (at Media Day):
.
It’s the place where a Japanese reporter once asked of San Francisco 49ers quarterback Joe Montana, "Tell me, why do they call you Boomer?"
(Well, they don’t actually. That would be Boomer Esiason, the Cincinnati quarterback.)
.
It’s where someone asked Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Joe Salave’a, "What’s your relationship with the football?"
To which Salave’a said, "I’d say it’s strictly platonic."
.
Asked how he got psyched to play in big games, Buffalo’s great running back Thurman Thomas sniffed, "I read the newspapers and look at all the stupid questions you all ask."
.
Not sure if that was the Super Bowl where Thomas lost two fumbles in a 30-13 loss or the one where he couldn’t find his helmet and missed the first few plays in a 37-24 loss.
.
Media Day is where Downtown Julie Brown, formerly of MTV, asked Dallas running back Emmitt Smith, "What are you going to wear in the game Sunday?"
.
Where Rams’ quarterback Kurt Warner was asked, "Do you believe in voodoo and can I have a lock of your hair?"
.
Where Denver running back Detron Smith was asked, "What size panties do you think you’d wear?"
.
Where a St. Louis player found himself pondering the grammatical conundrum contained within the question, "Is Ram a noun or a verb?"
.
So you get Dallas quarterback Troy Aikman in Super Bowl XXXII being asked, "Are you going to listen to Stevie Wonder perform at halftime?"
(Sure thing. What else would he be doing at halftime except shushing the coaches so he could hear "Don’t You Worry About a Thing"?)

Now back to the old salt mines ( Google images )

cheerleader graphics for the next NFL post or
whatever on FSQ!

EXERCISE QUOTES
.
Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.
- Stein, Gertrude
In theTatler, no.147,18 Mar.
Also attributed to Addison.
.
Women are supposed to be very calm generally:
but women feel just as men feel: they need exercise for their faculties, and a field for their efforts as much as their brothers do; they suffer from too rigid a restraint, too absolute a stagnation, precisely as men would suffer - it is thoughtless to condemn them, or laugh at them, if they seek to do more than custom has pronounced necessary for their sex.
-Bronte, Charlotte
Jane Eyre, ch.12.
.
He that in his studies wholly applies himself to labour and exercise,
and neglects meditation, loses his time, and he that only applies himself to meditation, and neglects labour and exercise, only wanders and loses himself.
- Confucius or K'ung Fu-tse, 'The MasterK'ung'
Quoted in Colin Jarman
The Guinness Dictionary of Sports Quotations (1990).
.
Squash - that's not exercise, it's flagellation.
- Coward, Sir Noel
Quoted in Colin Jarman
The Guinness Dictionary of Sports Quotations (1990).
.
Better to hunt in fields, for health unbought,
Than fee the doctor for a nauseous draught.
The wise, for cure, on exercise depend;
God never made his work, for man to mend.
- Dryden,John
.
'To Exercise is bunk. If you are healthy, you don't need it: if you are sick, you shouldn't take it.
- Ford, Henry
Attributed. US businessman, grandson of Henry Ford,
president of the Ford Motor Co from 1945 and chairman from 1960.
.
Art derives a considerable part of its beneficial exercise from flying in the face of presumptions.
- James, Henry
'The Art of Fiction', collected in Partial Portraits (1988).
.
It is a good morning exercise for a research scientist to discard a pet hypothesis every day before breakfast. It keeps him young.
- Lorenz, Konrad
('The So-Called Evil', translated by Marjorie Latzke as On Aggression,1966), ch.2.
.
It asks more steadiness, self-control, ay, and manly courage, than any other exercise.You must take as well as give, eye to eye, toe to toe, and arm to arm.
- Peel, Sir Robert of boxing.
Quoted in John Boyle O'Reilly
Ethics of Boxing and Manly Sport (1888).
.
To curle on the ice, does greatly please, Being a manly Scottish exercise; It clears the Brains, stirs up the Native Heat, And gives a gallant appetite for Meat.
- Penecuik, Dr Alex
Quoted in Colin Jarman
The Guinness Dictionary of Sports Quotations (1990).
.
Exercise? I get it on the golf course.When I see my friends collapse, I run for the paramedics.
- Skelton, Red (Richard), comedian \ entertainer Attributed.
.
I have never taken any exercise, except sleeping and resting, and I never intend to take any. Exercise is loathsome.
- Twain, Mark (pseudonym of Samuel Langhorne Clemens)
Quoted in Colin Jarman
The Guinness Dictionary of Sports Quotations (1990).
