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!

MOTEGI, Japan (April 19) — Danica Patrick never doubted a woman could win a race. It finally happened Sunday.

Danica's
Historic Win

It took her 50 races, but Danica Patrick finally did it. The 26-year-old wins her first IndyCar race at the Indy Japan 300 and becomes the first female winner in the history of the series.

Patrick became the first female winner in IndyCar history on Sunday, winning the Indy Japan 300 in her 50th career start.

"I'm glad it finally happened," said Patrick. "But I would be lying if I told you I didn't think it would be me."

Win No. 1 was a long time coming for 26-year-old Patrick, who finished a career-best seventh in the season standings last year when her best finish was second in the race at Detroit's Belle Isle.

Patrick's first IndyCar race was in 2005 at Homestead-Miami.

Patrick said the nicest thing about Sunday's win is that she no longer has to answer those annoying questions about when she'd win.

"I've been asked so many times when and if I can win my first race and finally, no more of those questions."
