A Quote by Cal Hubbard

Boys, I'm one of those umpires that misses 'em every once in a while so if it's close, you'd better hit it.

I cheat my boys every chance I get. I trade with the boys and skin 'em and I just beat 'em every time I can. I want to make 'em sharp.

John D. Rockefeller

There's a line, players usually don't cross it and coaches usually don't cross it. Every once in a while you get a little temper tantrum on both sides, I certainly have had 'em. I'm not proud of those.

Bill Parcells

Umpires got power, man. You ever notice if you go to a ballpark and there's a close play on first base, they will not run the replay at the ballpark? I've seen umpires go underneath and call up and say if you run one more of those replays, we're gonna forfeit the game. That's how strong their union is.

Pete Rose

Some have said that I can accept inadequacies in my players but not in umpires. That completely misses the point. I can't tolerate anyone's mistake.

Earl Weaver

All you're supposed to do is every once in a while give the boys a little tea and sympathy.

Robert Anderson

I'am not predictor of fights, but I know when I hit 'em good, the fight is close to an end

Mike Tyson

I heard that women are attracted to bad boys, so every once in a while, I throw a recyclable into the regular garbage.

Tom Sims

Everything is so chaotic. My nervous system can't handle it. I need my peace, so, every once in a while, while the kids are at school, I lie in bed, close the curtains, watch television and eat food.

Leslie Mann

Just tell 'em you're gonna soak the fat boys and forget the rest of the tax stuff...Willie, make 'em cry, make 'em laugh, make 'em mad, even mad at you. Stir them up and they'll love it and come back for more, but, for heaven's sakes, don't try to improve their minds.

Robert Penn Warren

Golf is a game of misses, and the winners are those who have the best misses

Kathy Whitworth

Every time we walk on to the field of battle and the field of battle is the internet, it doesn't matter if we shoot our opponents a hundred times and hit every time. As long as they've hit us once, we've lost, because the U.S. is so much more reliant on those systems.

Edward Snowden

All you umpires, back to the bleachers. Referees, hit the showers. It's my game. I pitch, I hit, I catch. I run the bases. At sunset, I've won or lost. At sunrise, I'm out again, giving it the old try.

Ray Bradbury

If you hit a routine fly ball in the big leagues, you're out every time. If you hit a ground ball, you're probably out a lot of the time as well. But there's a happy medium in there, a way to swing where your misses can still lead to successes.

Christian Yelich

I cheat my boys every chance I get, I want to make 'em sharp.

William Avery

I used to get made fun of in the minor leagues. I'd be 0 for 2, and then in my last at-bat I'd hit a chopper that wouldn't even reach the shortstop, and I'd get a hit out of it. The guys would be all over me, but a hit's a hit. I'll take 3,000 of 'em.

Mike Trout

Students, eh? Love 'em or hate 'em, you can't hit them with a shovel!

Terry Pratchett
