sports men matter
There are always late bloomers [in sport], no matter size, although big men are more often late bloomers.
sports team hockey
My opinion is there should NOT be an MVP award [in hockey]. The Olympic teams sports shouldn't acknowledge individuality. And if there is going to be such an award a player on the losing team who lets in the losing goal shouldn't get it.
sports believe convincing
Sports executives are great at convincing themselves whatever they believe is right and simply has to be.

We [Americans] are a football-baseball-basketball-golf culture with some ocassional forays into tennis and less often the winter sports ...
sports thinking years
Steinberg occupies a position that is very dear to those of us who've held it over the years: sports columnist at The Post. If all he wants to do is be popular--and I think Dan is better than that--then the readers of The Washington Post sports section won't be very well served. Telling readers how great they are as sports fans was never one of my priorities. The only thing worse than people who can't stand to hear an unpopular or unflattering opinion is those that are too afraid to state one.
basketball sports football
Football can stand parity better than any of the other sports, I think. Baseball, basketball and hockey need a defining team, in essence to frame the season. Football? Not so much.

People here don't identify themselves by their sports team.
sports

american-journalist belong
Yeah, see, my view of Jordan is that he doesn't belong to Washington.
american-journalist asking both couple knees played wins
Both of us played basketball, and I played tennis and my knees are done. Now if you ask us head-to-head who wins at golf, I'm asking for a couple of strokes.
available coming draft himself nba pick team
Any team that has the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft and doesn't take Noah, should he make himself available in the coming weeks, would be unbelievably dumb.
coaches jerry ought resign walk
Jerry Sloan, not some bum, coaches that team. Jerry Sloan ought to take him (Miller) out one of these days, and then resign or walk out.
