The spectators want to see action, goals, tackles.
That's why we love football: it's not about the money or about the hairstyle or the dancing. We want to see beautiful goals, great tackles, fair play, and all this stuff.
I want to score more goals, I want to give more assists, I want to do more tackles.
The Australian way of affirmative action is setting goals and recognising discrimination and lack of opportunity and deciding to take action and setting some goals and targets. I guess I prefer that language to talking about quotas.
As you begin to take action toward the fulfillment of your goals and dreams, you must realize that not every action will be perfect. Not every action will produce the desired result. Not every action will work. Making mistakes, getting it almost right, and experimenting to see what happens are all part of the process of eventually getting it right.
I love to see goals and attacking play; I want us to be entertaining. But it's no good if you're shipping goals.
[Kirk] Johnson throws some heavy punches and is a knockout fighter. This is what people want to see. They want to see a fight, they want to see punches and they want to see action.
We need to set goals for ourselves. Start today...if you don't have any goals, make your first goal getting some goals. You probably won't start living happily ever after, but you may start living happily, purposefully, and with gratitude...Goals are gratitude in action. They give us the opportunity to build on what we already have. While achieving goals can be a lengthy process, we can learn to be grateful for each stage in the process of setting and meeting goals.
Especially in the secondary, a lot of your tackles are usually going to be in the open field, one-on-one tackles, so you can't be out there thinking about making a pretty tackle or having the ground ooh and ahh.
I love the game. I want to see creativity. I want to see great goals. I want 'Wow!'
One of my goals is definitely break into film, and I want to do action movies as well.
A lot of teams don't think I'm physical, although some do. Some say I can be physical at times, but they don't see the physicality all the time. I tell them, "Do you want a guy who is a knockout artist or do you want a sure tackler?" From what I know, all tackles, big or not, count the same.
Some critics of racing witlessly claim that spectators only attend to see someone die. This is utter and complete nonsense. I have been at numerous races where death is present. When a driver dies, the crowd symbolically dies, too. They come to see action at the brink: ultimate risk taking and the display of skill and bravery embodied in the sport's immortals like Nuvolari, Foyt, and thousands of others who operate at the ragged edge.
If the spectators demand from the players that they do their utmost and score goals, the players shouldn't question this.
I look at goals, like, what do I want to do and where do I want to see myself. What position to I want to be in going forward.
A lot of fans are complaining nowadays of too much shaky cam in action scenes and not being able to see what is going on, but I don't want to disappoint people. I'm a huge admirer of action and I'm very passionate about it. I do believe that a lot of action could be done so much better in general, so I'm a real advocator for pushing things forward in that sense and giving the fans what they want.
I'm old-school. I like action, but I want to see somebody fall in love. I want to see that life stuff.
