Richard Sherman was an angry man!
The greatest memorable sport press conferences and quotes
Richard Sherman was an angry man!
Jimmy V comes to mind.
Tug McGraw, legendary relief pitcher and also Tim’s dad, was a quote machine:
“Ninety percent (of my salary) I'll spend on good times, women and Irish Whiskey. The other ten percent I'll probably waste."
| "I dunno. I never smoked any Astroturf." - Asked for a preference of grass or Astroturf |
“Ninety percent (of my salary) I'll spend on good times, women and Irish Whiskey. The other ten percent I'll probably waste."

Steelers coach Chuck Noll, on the difficulty of making final roster cuts:
“Making cuts is easy. The hard part is stopping.”

I mean its got to be.... I quote it like once a week.
Me and my friends quote Dennis Green's "They are who we thought they were" rant way more than anything else. There's a few good lines in there. "IF YOU WANT TO CROWN THEM, THEN CROWN THEIR A**"
"....AND WE LET EM OFF THE HOOK"
It's amazing how much you can say this in an office setting

Mike Tyson-Back is broken! Spinal!
Bum Phillips talking to a reporter about Earl Campbell not finishing a mile run. “When it’s 1st and a mile, I won’t give it to him!”

Bum also said this about his epitaph at a press conference:
"He'd have lived a hell of a lot longer if he didn't have to play Pittsburgh six times in two years."
MLB manager Chuk Tanner said:
"The best team in baseball will lose one-third of its games. The worst team in baseball will win one-third of its games. The team that wins the most of the remaining third will win the pennant."
Chuck made Norman Vincent "The Power of Positive Thinking" Peale look suicidal.

NFL = Not For Long
This is exactly the one that came to mind when I read this. His delivery, stone cold sarcasm, that actually wasn't disrespectful was just absolutely hilarious. I love this answer to just a stupid question.

Reminds me of the quote this week from Mike Tomlin of the Pittsburgh Steelers, following Chase Claypools suggestion that practive might be more fun if music were played. Tomlin replied, "Claypool plays wideout, and I will allow him to do that! Meanwhile, I decide the practice format. I consider that a fair division of labor!"
I looked for the press conference where the Ohio State Athletic Director was forced by the Board of Regents to fire Earl Bruce! That firing was the most ridiculous thing ever! Earl Bruce was a great coach. But the Board of Regents didn't like him. So, shortly after announcing the firing of Bruce, the AD announced his resignation in protest for being forced to do such a thing!
This thread needs some Mike Leach:
This is memorable and i wont soon forget it because it was such a ridiculous thing to say.
