“Nobody roots for Goliath.”
Wilt Chamberlain
“Everybody pulls for David, nobody roots for Goliath.”
“And as he talked with them, behold, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the armies of the Philistines, and spake according to the same words: and David heard them.”
Bible
“It was like David and Goliath out there. They were huge and big and we tried to run the ball and we couldn't. We couldn't establish anything. We couldn't throw the ball because they were playing a 4-3 with a Cover-2. so it was very difficult to move the ball on them.”
Jim Boyd
“And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take it: for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that; give it me.”
“You're all making this a David v Goliath thing and you know how that story ends.”
Gerard Houllier
“It's like David and Goliath. We know how the biblical story goes. We're hoping for a repeat. It's going to take everyone playing their best game at the same time to pull this off.”
