Even though my dad was a manager in the minor leagues, I still traveled around with him and saw it from the field out. Now, as an owner, you're kind of looking from the whole baseball activity from outside in, from a fan's perspective. Cal Ripken Jr
I hate to talk about myself like that, but if I had to straight up tell a head coach or an owner why they should take me, it's because I'm the best in everything I've done. Robert Griffin iii
I have a hard time believing athletes are overpriced. If an owner is losing money, give it up. It's a business. I have trouble figuring out why owners would stay in if they're losing money. Reggie Jackson
I hope somebody falls in love with me - other than my fiancee. But that's what you want. As a player you want a team that really wants you; head coach, GM, owner, everybody that really wants you in their place and the players believe in you. I'm looking forward to making somebody fall in love with me. Robert Griffin iii
I was also lucky to play for an owner, Bud Selig, who truly cared about his players. He'd call me into his office once in a while when he knew things weren't going so well. And it's funny. Every time I left there I always felt like something good was about to happen. Robin Yount
I'm excited about being an owner, it's got my competitive juices going. I'm scared, but excited as well. Roger Staubach

My job is to build that belief in every coach and every owner, that they can put the franchise in my hands and I can take it uphill from there. Obviously, everyone wants to be No. 1, but I'm not going to campaign. I'm just going to go out and show what I've got. Robert Griffin iii
Of all the toys available, none is better designed than the owner himself. A large multipurpose plaything, its parts can be made to move in almost any direction. It comes completely assembled, and it makes a sound when you jump on it.Stephen Baker
Purchasing the Bobcats is the culmination of my post-playing career goal of becoming the majority owner of an NBA franchise. Michael Jordan
The mind of the writer does indeed do something before it dies, and so does its owner, but I would be hard put to call it living. Annie Dillard
The owner of the New York Yankees, Mr. George Steinbrenner who I had the greatest respect for, I want to thank him for giving me the opportunity to win that special ring in 1996. Wade Boggs
The place where I had so much success as a driver would be where I had my first win as a team owner. Bobby Rahal
Ultimately, if you can say that I'm a bad owner and we're winning championships, I can live with that. But if we're not making the playoffs and we're spending and losing money, then I have to look in the mirror and say maybe I'm not taking the necessary steps to doing what it takes to run an organization. Michael Jordan
We had a strong relationship with Walter Brown, and felt that he was the best owner in the league. Bob Cousy
