During my freshman year at Cornell, I joined my dorm's intramural football team. At the first practice, upper classmen pointed out I was tall, so I should try playing QB. Well half an hour later, it was abundantly clear that I should not be the QB.

David Einhorn

As a football team, we don't have any backups. We don't consider anybody a backup.

DeAngelo Williams

I have to buy three of everything. It doesn't make any sense, but I have to. I'm worried I might lose it, and if I lose it, then I have a backup and then I have a backup to my backup.

Football is so popular, people know they can sell their story in a newspaper form or a rating on TV, so they use football because what they are more about is the business of, you know, selling newspapers or seeing commercial time on TV.

Jim Irsay

Going after the QB is like playing king of the mountain. When you get the QB, you're on top of the mountain.

Joe Greene

I think I have all of the things you look for in a QB. The drive, the leadership, the intangibles, as well as what you look for in a QB.

Especially in football, it is not a QB's game... even though the media likes to make it into that - it takes the whole team.

You need to be able to work with people. Especially in football, it is not a QB's game... even though the media likes to make it into that - it takes the whole team.

It seems to me that the American popular song, growing out of American folk music, is the basis of the American musical theater… it is quite legitimate to use the form of the popular song and gradually fill it out with new musical content.

Kurt Weill

I want to be great - in everything I do. As far as football, I always looked up to Kellen Moore of Boise State. I thought it was the coolest thing that he was the winningest QB of all time.

Josh Rosen

If any QB can complete passes to himself, it's Johnny Manziel.

Jon Gruden

To be honest, football is my main goal. I never really had a backup plan.

Ha Ha Clinton-Dix

I have known Trent Lott for 20 years, ... I don't believe he's racist. But he must proactively send a message to his colleagues in the Senate and the American people that he is absolutely opposed to any segregation in any form and racism in any form and discrimination in any form.

John McCain

I have never, ever, received any taunts or any form of anti-Semitism. And I suppose being a Jewish football player with the Atlanta Falcons was no different than being a Baptist football player with the Atlanta Falcons. But in the back of your mind, you always expect something to happen.
