re: Best sports quotes of all time?

" playoffs"

Jim Mora

USC/Tampa Bay Coach John McKay's top 10:

1 - After a Bucs loss, in response to a question about his team's execution: "I'm all in favor of it."

2 - On an interception thrown by Steve DeBerg in 1984 that cost the Bucs a game against the Giants: "It was thrown to nobody. Well, it was thrown to somebody, Harry Carson. But he happened to be playing for the New York Giants at the time. It would have been a good pass if Harry had been playing for us."

3 - After a particularly heavy loss: "The bus leaves in an hour - anyone who needs a shower, take one."

4 - On losing a key game: "I told our players that there were 700 million Chinese people in the world who didn't even know the game was played. The next week, I got five letters from China asking "What happened?"

5 - After the Bucs broke their 26-game losing streak: "Three or four plane crashes and we're in the playoffs."

6 - On recruiting his son John to play for USC: "I had an advantage - I slept with his mother."

7 - On the prospect of a late-season trip to Green Bay: "Going there is like winning the 98th prize in a beauty contest with only 97 prizes."

8 - On hearing how Bucs kicker Pete Rajecki was nervous about McKay watching him in the 1976 pre-season: "That's unfortunate as I plan on attending all the games."

9 - At a post-game press conference in 1976: "You guys don't know the difference between a football and a bunch of bananas."

10 - The following week after a media member has dropped off a case of bananas at his door: "You guys don't know the difference between a football and a Mercedes-Benz."
