That's a moment I will never forget in my life, never ever. It was the first time I made the playoffs. After we lost to the Celtics, I told myself, I never want to play a season without making the playoffs, because it was so much fun.

Zaza Pachulia

Football is the love of my life. I would never say I don't want to play. Somebody could say that this game is meaningless. Who is it meaningless to? I guess people who are watching the game? Or the people who are playing it? It's definitely not meaningless to us.

Shawne Merriman

Good teams make the playoffs, hot teams win the playoffs.

Derek Jeter

I've been on teams that lost a hundred games in a season. I've been on teams that had a shot to make the playoffs and fizzled out at the end.

Chili Davis

Teams that can run the football, stop the run and take care of the football will win in the playoffs.

Ryan Tannehill

There's been so many stories throughout the league where teams have started off poorly and ended up in the Finals. Or teams starting out great and not making the playoffs.

Sue Bird

Every year is a new year, and when you look at the turnover year to year, teams that made the playoffs last year aren't a guarantee to make the playoffs this year.

Connor McDavid

We have not made cricket and football [soccer] professional because of any astonishing avarice or new vulgarity. We have made them professional because we would have them perfect. We have dedicated men to them as to some god of inhuman excellence. We care more for football than for the fun of playing football.

Gilbert K. Chesterton

When I was playing, there were only eight teams in each league, and you didn't have any playoffs.

Red Schoendienst

It's fun running out onto the field. It's much more fun playing in the playoffs.

Adam Vinatieri

Playing pretty big minutes in the playoffs and having career games in the playoffs is something you dream of as a kid but never really think will happen.

Joe Ingles

Playing eight years, never making the playoffs, you feel like you're running on a treadmill that's going nowhere. You're like, 'Is this it? Is this all football is?'

Chris Long

You have so much fun playing games. We all love basketball, so we never want the season to end, 'cause then it's five months of sitting around and watching the playoffs.
