Bruce Jenner

I always felt that my greatest asset was not my physical ability, it was my mental ability.

Bruce Jenner

Bruce Jenner

Bill Buckner

I'd rather not, but if it will help the club, I'll do it. My ankle injury still bothers me sometimes.

Bill Buckner

Baseball's what I do.

Bill Buckner

I feel like I'm walking on eggs and can't take another step.

Bill Buckner

I don't have the acting skills my daughter has.

Bill Buckner

Rugby is great. The players don't wear helmets or padding; they just beat the living daylights out of each other and then go for a beer. I love that.

Joe Theismann

No matter how great you are, the next great one is already sitting there waiting to take your place.

Joe Theismann

Nobody in football should be called a genius. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein.

Joe Theismann

I was always told that I was too small, too skinny, too slow, not tough enough, and I never ever believed what people told me.

Joe Theismann

This is a game, first and foremost. There was only one Vince Lombardi, and he died.
