Profile of a winning team - They play to win. They have a winning attitude. They keep improving. They make their teammates more successful.

John C. Maxwell

The way I've always approached it is if we're winning and people want to talk about me, it's fine. If we're losing, then you really get on me, and I'll definitely try to be better to help us win. But I'm fine with it, as long as we're winning and we're playing good basketball.

Al Horford

As athletes, we're always going to have aches and pains, but when your teammates cheer you on, you don't think about it.

Simone Biles

It's easy to play football when everything is going well and you are winning games back to back, winning, winning, it's the best feeling ever, you can go out there and express yourself you feel like you are not going to make mistakes.

Gary Cahill

I've got some teammates telling me I can play for a long time, ooh, boy, I don't want to play for a long time.

Joey Votto

You can feel the same thing in football or soccer - that for the best teams in Spain and England, for instance, the public... they're not really going to cheer at all when they play against bad teams unless they do something spectacular. Even if they're winning by a few goals they'll probably just say, "nah." That's normal and they're not excited about it.

Magnus Carlsen

As long as we're winning, I'm fine.

Aaron Donald

I decided very early that I was going to be a reporter, that I would not cheer for the team. I don't denigrate people who do it. It's fine.

Ernie Harwell

As long as you are winning, everything is fine, and you lose a game, and all hell breaks loose. That is grossly unfair. We should not overlook someone's past achievements just because he is going through a bad patch.

Shahid Afridi

I'm going to play for me and not play for anyone else except my teammates and the guys that matter.

Alex Smith

For me, it's fine to be aggressive and play hard. As long as you're not getting personal, it's fine, and you can do whatever you can to upset the opposition.

Gautam Gambhir

Winning makes coaches, teammates, owners, fans all happy... I didn't care if we win 7-6 as long as we win.

Martin Brodeur

Cheer for your teammates, regardless of whether they're fast or slow, veteran or neophyte, varsity or JV. Or rally the spirits of someone who's had a bad performance. Also, encourage stragglers during tough workouts; jog back to 'pick up' a runner who's behind during a long run.

Don Kardong

I came in the league as not a shooter, not a scorer. My game was to play defense and make my teammates better. The most important stat to me was that left column - winning. Nothing else matters.

Jason Kidd

The best kids are going to become the best. But the best thing about it is that you're going to learn lessons in playing those sports about winning and losing and teamwork and teammates and arguments and everything else that are going to affect you positively for the rest of your life.
