I also watched a lot of football and sports. I haven't had much time to watch too much TV lately.
Casper Van Dien, American Actor (1968-  )
I think professional sports, football, to use it as an example, it's fundamentally a form of entertainment.
Gregg Easterbrook, American Author
I don't think there are many larger lessons to be found in sports.
Gregg Easterbrook, American Author
I grew up being into sports and I wasn't trained to move my body in the right way for dancing. I'm the last one to get any moves correct. In rehearsals it's always, 'OK, one more take for Zac.'
Zac Efron, American Actor (1987-  )
I liked the energy of cooking, the action, the camaraderie. I often compare the kitchen to sports and compare the chef to a coach. There are a lot of similarities to it.
Todd English, American Celebrity (1960-  )
Boxing, for me, it's the beginning of all sports. I'm willing to bet that the first sport was a man against another man in a fight, so I think that's something innate in all of us.
Omar Epps, American Actor (1973-  )
One of the things in the back of my mind is that, after my sports experience, I never want to be, totally consumed by any one endeavor, other than my family life.
Julius Erving, American Athlete (1950-  )
I liked the game, I enjoyed the game, and the game fed me enough, and gave me enough rewards to reinforce that this is something that I should spend time doing, and that I could possibly make a priority in my life, versus other sports.
Julius Erving, American Athlete (1950-  )
We knew it was going to be the biggest event scheduled in the history of women's sports, but we didn't ever fathom we would be playing before sold-out stadiums all over the country.

If you're a sports fan you realize that when you meet somebody, like a girlfriend, they kind of have to root for your team. They don't have a choice.
Jimmy Fallon, American Comedian (1974-  )
Men's competitive team sports focus on the balance between individual achievement and team achievement with the emphasis on team achievement.
Warren Farrell, American Writer (1943-  )
I don't think there's anything that is a greater area of discrimination against women today than the fact that nowhere in the world is there a female role model in team sports that more than half of a general audience would recognize.
Warren Farrell, American Writer (1943-  )
We really love all sports, but we don't think in the long term. The reason we did Kingpin was because there was a script we really liked and we saw the possibilities.
Peter Farrelly, American Director (1956-  )
There is a huge responsibility on all of us to get England through. It would be one of the biggest disasters in sports history if we blew it and we must make sure it does not happen.

That's what Major League Baseball's steroid scandal was all about, the hidden harm in competitive sports that sends the wrong message to the young.
Suzanne Fields, -
I think exercise tests us in so many ways, our skills, our hearts, our ability to bounce back after setbacks. This is the inner beauty of sports and competition, and it can serve us all well as adult athletes.
Peggy Fleming, American Athlete (1948-  )
I love sports. Whenever I can, I always watch the Detroit Tigers on the radio.
Gerald R. Ford, American President (1913-2006)
The more violent the body contact of the sports you watch, the lower the class.
Paul Fussell, American Historian (1924-  )
In the field of sports you are more or less accepted for what you do rather than what you are.
Althea Gibson, American Athlete (1927-2003)
In sports, you simply aren't considered a real champion until you have defended your title successfully. Winning it once can be a fluke; winning it twice proves you are the best.
Althea Gibson, American Athlete (1927-2003)
