League Quotes

America overflows with specious ‘victims’ demanding redress for spurious grievances. However, one genuinely oppressed minority is getting overdue relief. Beginning with spring training in Arizona and Florida, Major League Baseball, taking pity on traumatized pitchers, is directing umpires to enforce the strike zone as defined in the rulebook. What a concept Picture Quote #1

Night baseball isn’t an aberration. What’s an aberration is a team that hasn’t won a World Series since 1908. They tend to think of themselves as a little Williamsburg, a cute little replica of a major league franchise. Give me the Oakland A’s, thank you very much. People who do it right Picture Quote #1

My major league debut came at old Busch Stadium on Grand Avenue in St. Louis, against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The first pitch I threw was to third baseman Bob Bailey. It was a fastball, low and away. He ripped it for a home run down the left field line. I said, ‘Damn, that was a pretty good pitch Picture Quote #1

I’m anxious to face them (major league pitchers) all, but in reality I’m looking forward most to (Boston’s) Pedro Martinez. He was with the major league team that came to Japan in 1996, just before he became a superstar. I’m anxious to see how much he’s improved. And I’m anxious to see how much I’ve improved against him Picture Quote #1

I am certain that a solution of the general problem of peace must rest on broad and basic understanding on the part of its peoples. Great single endeavors like a League of Nations, a United Nations, and undertakings of that character, are of great importance and in fact absolutely necessary, but they must be treated as steps toward the desired end Picture Quote #1

My week at school would be good or bad depending on whether Balmain won. I have such fond memories of those suburban grounds, and everything was so undiluted. The players weren’t censored, and for me it was a wonderful period of my life when everything was simple and pure. For me, that resonated with rugby league Picture Quote #1

I won an MVP trophy with the St. Louis Amateur Baseball Association. I didn’t even start. I was a sub on this team. This was, like, an All-Star game where we had athletes from different teams, different mixtures. We had, like, the only black team in the league, basically. We had four players go to the All-Star game Picture Quote #1

It’s rare in the NBA, but I have a lot of young female fans from eight to eighteen because of the way I dress and the way I do my hair. People sometimes call me a pretty boy, but I embrace it. It’s fun, and I guess it just kind of comes with being a good looking white guy in the league Picture Quote #1

They think America is like a major league in entertainment. For me personally being here for the past year-and-a-half, I know some of the arguments and discrepancies African American actors have with the opportunities here Picture Quote #1

We always knew that we wanted to keep Atlantis off for a while and when it did show up, to make it a big story. The goal for Aquaman was to position him as an A-list character; position him as an important member of the Justice League Picture Quote #1

The question was never whether the United States, E.U., NATO, Arab League, U.N. Security Council, and African Union could together using economic sanctions, diplomatic pressure, and military attacks to bring Qaddafi down. The question was always how much time, how much blood, and what damage to NATO Picture Quote #1

When you think about little league football, high school, and even on to college even more so, you’re dealing with a lot of guys that are prideful, that think they’re the best - a lot of alpha males. So, typically, you’ve got to have a guy that can control those guys, and, when he talks, they know he means business. He’s a serious guy Picture Quote #1

I have goals and ambitions, and I see myself as a lifelong baseball student. I have certain philosophies that I’d like to test at some point at the big league level. The job of manager appeals to me, a coach appeals to me, at a different time frame Picture Quote #1

I liked St. Louis, when they were in the American League, because that was going home. I had all my family and friends there Picture Quote #1

When I played pro football, I never set out to hurt anyone deliberately - unless it was, you know, important, like a league game or something Picture Quote #1

I was a halfback on an American football team in Athens, Greece - the Kississia Colts - where I went to high school, and we took the Cup my senior year. The downside, and somewhat unfortunate piece of information I have to pass on, is there were only two teams in the league because of the limited amount of Americans Picture Quote #1

I’ve enjoyed my time in the American League, the fans of Southern California and other friendships Picture Quote #1

I became exclusively an American League fan when they instituted the DH rule, and will remain so until the National League moves out of the dark ages Picture Quote #1

When you talk about the American League, you think of Fenway. When you talk about the National League, you think of Wrigley and the fan base that they have in Chicago Picture Quote #1

In the American League, there seems to have been an entire lack of any concerted campaign to build up a club in New York which should rival the Giants on an even basis Picture Quote #1

Not that managing in the American League is easy, but this is certainly different. I’ll have to have somebody poke me in the rear end when I have a pitcher that’s going to hit Picture Quote #1

There are many reasons why I hate college football. The 4-hour games drone on longer than Steve Lyons during the American League playoffs. The ever-expanding season threatens to creep into early July. Boise, Idaho, hosts a bowl game. And it’s played on blue artificial turf Picture Quote #1

The threshold by the Commission on Presidential Debates. In the words of the League of Women Voters, they are a fraud being perpetrated on the American public Picture Quote #1

I want to be the top player in the league, and I want to bring my game to another level. I want to play against the opposition’s best players-and I want to beat them Picture Quote #1

Anything that could give rise to smarter-than-human intelligence - in the form of Artificial Intelligence, brain-computer interfaces, or neuroscience-based human intelligence enhancement - wins hands down beyond contest as doing the most to change the world. Nothing else is even in the same league Picture Quote #1

Manchester United and Liverpool have been bought with huge leverage, and we’ve got Roman Abramovich at Chelsea who can turn his loans into shares. It is really important for the Premier League to ask itself: if a club is being bought on such a mountain of debt, isn’t that a possible recipe for disaster for the future? Picture Quote #1

The Football Association have always acted more as a referee than a governor. And the FA, aware the Premier League provide players for the England team, have always had too gentle a hand on the tiller. The result is that the Premier League are the tigers in the English football jungle everybody’s scared of Picture Quote #1

I was playing little league baseball when Bruce Jenner was winning the gold but I don’t think I was really paying attention at that time Picture Quote #1

As long as the problem of world reconstruction remains the center of interest for all nations, blocs having similar attitudes will form and operate even within the League itself Picture Quote #1

Why shouldn’t we pitch to Babe Ruth? We pitch to better hitters in the National League Picture Quote #1
