Getting the balance right in everything is all of football and all of sport. — © Roy Hodgson
Getting the balance right in everything is all of football and all of sport.
Baseball was always my favorite sport, and I thought it would be the sport I'd pursue for the long term. But I guess about my sophomore year in high school, I started really getting into football, and then it just took off from there.
I don't look at football as a violent, barbaric sport. It's a very spiritual sport, especially for someone facing the challenges during a game: the fear of failure, the fear of getting too big an ego, of making a mistake and everybody criticizing you.
For someone like me, who loves this sport, Naples is a wonderful place. This is an incredible city where football comes first, followed by everything else. The fans live for football.
You know, I never looked down the road and said, 'Hey look, one day, the Hall of Fame.' It's always about playing each and every game 100 percent and I thank my teammates for getting me into the Hall because football is a team sport, not an individual sport.
What we need to do is strike the right balance in our teams for all three formats of the sport.
Football is getting bigger but ice hockey is still the biggest sport back home.
It's about getting the right balance and knowing on the pitch when is the right time to take risks.
Everything you care about is getting the next step right: getting the script right, finding the right actors, shooting it. Then you spend half a year in a dark room editing your film, and you don't talk to anybody.
This is football. This is my job. At the same time there's a good balance you can have with having fun and getting prepared and ready for the game.
Balance is key. Balance is a virtue. Balance is next to godliness, maybe. We should all aspire to better balance. Too much of what is said in this world is one-sided, and we need more balance - in our speech, in our music, in our art, in everything.
I think, in every situation, it's important to find the right balance. If you have to spend money, try and spend that money in the right way to take players with the right characteristics for your idea of football.
I think before the kids, this was different - when I came home it was football, football, football all the time, every day. Now I have another balance in my life.
People are getting used to women's football on their screens, so as long as the quality of the product is high, we'll draw fans to the sport.
You never have any idea where your movie's going to go when you're shooting - you're in this little bubble. Everything you care about is getting the next step right: getting the script right, finding the right actors, shooting it.
I'm just going to continue focusing on becoming a better football player, attacking the offseason with the mindset of getting stronger and doing everything that I can to show that when the time comes, I'm ready to play football.
When some people play football, they think of it as just a sport. To me, it's everything.
