Classic Quotes

hahaha, sorry. Cannot believe I didn't notice that..

haha

Classic Quote from a rugby player after the game:

"We scored the game-winning try with 5 minutes to go, but they then scored right on the final whistle"\

It was something like that. LOL

Some rugby union commentator;

"The first thing your told as a young player- if you see your team-mate on the ground, go down on him."

I knew those union guys were odd....

"The finger goes up, the umpire's Hughass".




Billy Brownless aka The 12th Man.

Nah, just cricket banter. I think everyone says that line!




Malcolm Marshall bowling to David Boon who had played and missed a few times..

"Now David, are you going to get out now, or am I going to have to bowl around the wicket and kill you?"

Thanks for the laughs guys. DB5, did Marsh's wife dump him for Botham? Harsh comment from Botham if that's the case!

A few more to finish up with:

"One of the reasons Arnie (Arnold Palmer) is playing so well is that, before each tee-shot, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them - Oh my God, what have I just said?"
- Female commentator from US Open

"They've picked their heads up off the ground and they now have a lot to carry on their shoulders."
- Ron Atkinson, the very quotable former EPL football manager

"If you'd offered me a 69 at the start this morning I'd have been all over you."
- Sam Torrance, Golfer

"A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."
- Winston Churchill

I like when Boston were playing someone (think pistons??) and he went to the other teams bench that he was gonna get the ball and and shoot the ball from the elbow and win the game.

He did..

Just watching some Rasheed highlights on youtube, caught one of him complaining after a foul called against him on our Bogut.

Bogut goes to the line, misses the first, Rasheed screams- "Ball don't lie man"

Bogut misses the second even worse.

Ian Healy to Ranatunga when the latter called for a runner..

" You don't get a runner for being an overweight, unfit, fat #$nt".

Ian Botham walks out to bat in an Ashes test.
Rod Marsh begins with "Hey Ian, how's your wife and my kids?"

Botham replies " My wife's fine, your kids are retarded."

Best move by the best players, list them here....

Tim Hardaway - UTEP Two Step

Beantown, ch 7 coverage of the 2008 advertisments.

They interrupted an ad to show some gymnastics.

Aussie commentator said it, was pretty funny..

I can't remember the player or team, but an underachieving NBA player was traded, then a few years later he had improved and was traded back to his original team. The coach said:

"When we traded him away he had a bad attitude and was lazy, but he has changed and now has done a complete 360 from where he was."

I always liked this Daryl Eastlake 'quote':

"Pearce off Jack, Gibbs on"

He copped it for that one!

Classic, Quagmire, I knew I could rely on you for a good quote!

DB5, where was this Chink in the armour comment?

Ultimate was big Daryl Eastlake (?) mentioning how he had;

"seen the female Bulgarian weightlifters snatch earlier in the morning, and it was spectacular"

Chink in the armour was pretty funny the other day, describing an Asian...
