“I’m good with the teammates I have.”
– Derek Rose, on false rumors that he requested a trade for Pau Gasol.
I love this guy.
“Knicks Trade Jeremy Lin For Selfish Asshole Who Plays Knicks-Style Basketball”

“Not to rain on the Pats’ top-seeded parade or anything, but foes threw for...”
– Peter King, Sports Illustrated.
I am so sick of hearing about how many yards the Patriots have given up on defense, and how it means they aren’t a strong #1 seed in the playoffs. Don’t get me wrong; the Pats are not a strong team. If they cannot get it going on offense and score 30...

“People in the organization were telling me I was going to probably stay here,...”
– Eric Gordon’s reaction to be traded to the Hornets after a week of Chris Paul speculation.
That quote kinda breaks my sports heart. Wasn’t in the early 1960s that Bill Russell refused to refer to himself as “just a basketball player”? Which players is this CBA supposed to be...
“But it’s funny because there wasn’t a lot of Mavericks fans when I...”
– Chris Bosh, during an interview how it’s “going to suck” watching the Mavs raise the banner on Christmas Day.
You know what else is funny? There just weren’t a lot of kids wearing Ronny Seikaly jerseys when I was a kid. Now, everyone is a Miami Heat fan, you pompous douche.

– Drew Rosenhaus, Terrell Owens’ agent, on why no NFL teams showed up to TO’s workout.
I beg to differ, sir. I beg to differ.
“But we don’t talk about [the Knicks]. … I’m not one to blow...”
– Carmelo Anthony on Chris Paul [pretty much, definitely] going to the Knicks next summer.
More evidence that the NBA has devolved into “NBA Jam”.
“…the trio would leave the dugout around the sixth inning, walk back to the...”
– The reported ritual of Lackey, Beckett, and Lester.
First off, all team employees should be fired out of principle for continually leaking clubhouse information. Second, Bud Light? Seriously, guys? You make millions of dollars and you can’t pony up a Hamilton for your “rally...
“Miami University, Florida State University, Georgia Tech University”
– The only schools in the ACC to have winning records against Clemson University, in football.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Clemson, but this fact shocks me. For a team that perpetually runs up their record against weak, non-conference foes only to then crash in conference play, this statistic is...
“@$%! it. Let them kill each other.”
– Gene Lamont, to coaches trying to break up a mile-high brawl between Uggy Urbina and Trot Nixon during the dishearteningly, miserable 2001 Red Sox campaign.
Ok, this year could have been worse…
“If we don’t go to Europe, then let’s start our own league.”
– - Amare Stoudemire, economic genius and expert negotiator.
So, the players want to start their own league now. Fantastic. I’m not even going to get into the sheer idiocracy that this statement alludes to. All I want to do is bring up a point alluded to on the blog Bethlehem Says, that the...

– Brett Favre on Aaron Rodgers
Looks like Favre-Ra’s jabs have turned implicit…he’s evolving!
