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!

SPORTS - RELATED ONE-LINERS
Insults, comebacks, heckles, squelches, etc. for the sports fanatic
.
An off-topic web site can be converted to a relevant sports topics
site by sports fanatics looking for one-liners to win verbal battles
after losing to rivals on the field!
.
A sports fanatic using his sense of humor can turn an otherwise
non-sports-related one-liner into a sports-related zinger to
overcome a loss in the Battle of the Sexes, on the tennis court,
the baseball diamond, soccer field, etc.
.
Some of the one-liners are oldies but goodies, but many will be
new and add more firepower to a fanatic's arsenal.
.
How about these for starters:
.
Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down
the street with a bald head and a beer gut, and still think
they are sexy.
.
Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall
of a successful man is usually another woman.
.
Never get into fights with ugly people, they have nothing to lose.
.
Never hit a man with glasses. Hit him with a baseball bat.
.
You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.
.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.

BASEBALL TRIVIA
Survey reports less than 3% of current MLB players\management have college degrees
.
Results of baseball survey by the Wall Street Journal:
.
-- One can't quantify relief pitcher Craig Breslow's value to the A's in terms of wins or saves. While the left-hander's next victory or save in Green & Gold will be his first, it's his degree in molecular biophysics and biochemistry from Yale that helped Oakland win the Wall Street Journal's title of the smartest team in baseball.
.
The WSJ's research concluded that just 26 players and managers in Major League Baseball have earned a college degree. Breslow and fellow relief pitchers Brad Ziegler and Jerry Blevins (currently in the minors) give the A's a major league-best three players with degrees.
.
The WSJ's point system, which also took college experience into account, provided the A's with a narrow win over Tampa Bay. The Giants were seventh overall. And, the "dumbest team" in baseball? That would be the Atlanta Braves.
.
Here's the complete list ( Source: online.wsj.com ) :
.
THE LIST
.
Moe Berg, where art thou?
.
Major league catcher Berg was so brainy he was selected for
espionage work in Japan prior to WWII and could speak 7
languages (but couldn't hit in any of them, according to
famous baseball lore).
.
Well, with MLB salaries in the millions for many individual
players, you might understand why degrees are not first
priority issues, although they should be, since most MLB
careers end before players reach age 40.
.
3%! I'm shocked myself, but I do know many continue to
work in baseball-related fields after the playing careers
end, so, maybe for them, in the long run, a degree is just
icing on the cake and they can get by without one, and,
if not, the option is still there.
.
I guess all of us wouldn't mind having millions in the bank
and then have to decide if we want the icing on the cake
or not - as Redd Foxx always used to say when given
choices, whatever the choices were, to Foxx, they were
always "better than okra!"
.
More baseball trivia? Well, Foxx, Fred Sanford at birth,
was called "Reds" in his earlier days because of his
complexion, so, when he decided to become a comedian,
he wanted a catchier name, so he chose the first name
Redd, based on his nickname "Reds", and his second
name, Foxx, based on the name of his then favorite ball
player, Jimmy Foxx, giving him the new name
REDD FOXX!
.
3% - Wow!
