In 1996, Rickey Henderson’s first season with San Diego, he boarded the team bus and was looking for a seat. Steve Finley said, “You have tenure, sit wherever you want.”
Henderson looked at Finley and said, “Ten years? Ricky’s been playing in the big leagues at least 16, 17 years.”

Leach is great for CFB, and he wins too. I hate that AU lost to MSU this year but Leach makes it more tolerable.

After Cleveland browns lost to the raiders in afc championship game when Brian sipe threw An interception in the end zone when they were inside the 10 with a minute left and a field goal would have put the browns in the super bowl, head coach Sam rutigliano said in the presser

If if and buts were candy and nuts, every day would be like Christmas.

He was later fired.

This whole thread could just be Leach quotes lol

Dan Devine screaming at young Lou Holtz who was special teams coach at Notre Dame asking how that guy returned a kick 80 yards - Lou's quick response was "he would have ran it back further but he crossed the goal line"

When the New York Mets were born, they were awful. They were comprised mostly of scrubs from the other teams.

Casey Stengel was the coach. Ron Hunt, 2B, was the first Met to make the All Star team. There was argument for other 2Bs because they had a better batting average than Hunt.

Casey Stengel answered that argument with, "Yeah, well Ron Hunt never gets to bat against Met pitching."
