The minute you get away

from fundamentals …

Whether it's proper technique,

Work ethic or mental

preparation …

The bottom can fall out of

your game,

Your schoolwork, your job,

Whatever you're doing.

- Michael Jordan

 

Things don’t happen by accident …

You don’t win a game, a division,

Or a national championship by

accident.

You have to make it happen and

you have to make it happen by

what you do every day.

- Coach Nick Saban

 

When weeds come up in your

garden,

It does no good to say,

'There are no weeds,

There are no weeds,

there are no weeds...'

It doesn't help to pretend

they're not there.

It doesn't matter how much

you focus on the beautiful plants

that are growing.

The weeds aren't going to

disappear until you get on your

hands and knees and pull them out.

In your own life,

you can't just 'focus on the positive,

Focus on the positive,

focus on the positive',

And expect your problems to go away.

If there are some weeds,

you have to deal with them.

- Nick Ortner

 

***

 

While I am flattered about

the speculation

Of being enticed out of

retirement,

I’m happy with life as a

bad golfer!

- Chipper Jones

 

I never thought home runs

were all that exciting.

I still think the triple is the

most exciting thing in baseball.

To me, a triple is like a guy taking

The ball on his 1-yard line and

running 99 for a touchdown.

- Hank Aaron

 

There are four ways for a

catcher to have a good day …

He can call a great game for

his pitcher

He can throw runners out

He can block home plate

He can get some hits

Of course,

they only matter if you win!

- Johnny Bench
