3 December 2020 Graham Taylor You go to Holland, France, Germany, every community, the tiniest village, they have magnificent, pristine sports facilities.
3 December 2020 Roy Clark Absolutely the worst thing about this job is the travel and being away from family. I have a wife and three wonderful children, the kids are all active in sports and it’s very difficult to up and leave and miss them growing up.
3 December 2020 Dave Barry The problem with winter sports is that – follow me closely here – they generally take place in winter.

3 December 2020 Rachel Griffiths I think a big part of our attraction to sport movies are the stories contained within the sports.
3 December 2020 Dennis Miller I had fun pretending to be a sportscaster. People always think that was a down thing for me. I had the best job in sports broadcasting for two years.
3 December 2020 Greg Louganis The Games are just a nice, positive way to build friendships, camaraderie and, of course, self-esteem. Plus, the Games are a great opportunity for people to participate in sports who normally wouldn’t.

3 December 2020 Haruki Murakami Team sports aren’t my thing. I find it easier to pick something up if I can do it at my own speed. And you don’t need a partner to go running, you don’t need a particular place, like in tennis, just a pair of trainers.
3 December 2020 Dana Hussein Sports can unify the Iraqi people – no Sunnis, no Shiites, just sport for the country.
