I used to watch Monte Irvin play when I was a kid. I idolized him. I used to wait in front of the ballpark just for him to pass by so I could see him.

Roberto Clemente

In the past, I bowled at players like Michael Atherton, Alec Stewart, Nasser Hussain, Michael Vaughan and Marcus Trescothick.

Glenn McGrath

But I was club captain at Leeds, club captain at Fulham. If you've got a bad attitude you're not getting those honours.

Ross McCormack

I used to come up to Scotland to see my uncle play and I would also watch him whenever he was on the TV.

Sean Longstaff

I play beside one of the unsung heroes in David Vaughan. It's a privilege to play with him: he is breathtaking at times.

Charlie Adam

I used to watch MTV when they played music, and discovered Robert Cray, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Healey.

Joe Bonamassa

Manchester United is a huge club. When I was young, it was a name I used to hear and it was a name I used to see on computer games and I used to play with the team.

Fred

I'm the captain of the Variety Club over in England, and so I'm playing golf for them once a week but doing odd bits.

Kevin Whately

I'm 45 years old. I used to be a club girl, but that's not my world anymore. That doesn't mean I can't make music that excites. I think it's inspiring to see an artist you grew up with take another crack.

Shirley Manson

He was my brother. I used to walk Michael to school, and I used to walk him to my grandmother's house when he was a little bitty kid because my grandmother babysat him, and she lived a long ways away, and then I would go to a school that was close to her area. I was one of the ones that helped raise him.

Rebbie Jackson

I believe Michael [Jackson] in a sense is an American martyr. Martyrs are persecuted and Michael was persecuted. Michael was innocent and martyrs are innocent. If you go on YouTube and watch interviews with Michael, you don't see a crack in the facade. There's this purity and this innocence that continued [throughout his life].

David LaChapelle

I never imagined that I would be at a club like Inter, with so much history and success and also as the captain. I can't see myself as a coach, but maybe as a director to give back to the club.

Javier Zanetti

I used to play for PSV. I was like, 'If I play for PSV, it's good. My dream is to play here. I love PSV as the club too. And then play for Santos.'

Andreas Pereira

My interest in football in England started very young. The Premier League was on TV and my dad used to watch it so naturally I would be sat with him on a Saturday or a Sunday watching the football with him.
