“Baseball and football are very different games. In a way, both of them are easy. Football is easy if you're crazy as hell. Baseball is easy if you've got patience. They'd both be easier for me if I were a little more crazy - and a little more patient.”
Bo Jackson
“Surprisingly, games like chess and backgammon are tactically very similar to games like football and baseball. While the physical nature of the game is very different, the situational nature is strikingly similar. A football coach is constantly making decisions with respect to multiple variables (score, field position, down, yards to a first down, etc.). Sophisticated computer models and simulations were introduced in chess and backgammon more than 20 years ago, and much has been learned. To say that technology has revolutionized these games would be an understatement. There is absolutely no reason that ZEUS cannot have an equally revolutionary impact on professional sports such as football and baseball.”
Chuck Bower
“We're going to take them to the Liberty Bell, ... We're going to take them to football games and baseball games.”

“as well as ''playgrounds for football, baseball, soccer and kindred games, or any games that are in their nature hazardous, or require fenced enclosures or tend to draw together crowds of people.”
Mark Ford
“[So big games in baseball or football? Which are more compelling?] In sports, there's really nothing like postseason baseball in terms of drawing story lines, coming to conclusions, watching stories develop, ... In the Yankees-Red Sox series, Games 4 and 5 were two of the most thrilling games you'd want to see, and when you have a buildup like that, people are going to be excited to see Games 6 and 7. In football, the games can be just as thrilling, but they stand on their own. A regular-season game in the NFL has almost a playoff feel some weeks.”
Joe Buck
“The key to winning baseball games is pitching, fundamentals, and three run homers.”
Earl Weaver
“Now there's three things you can do in a baseball game: You can win or you can lose or it can rain.”
