I suppose you could never say never, but my experience would tell me that the most successful players in the world are gonna come from an environment that is more competitive at an early age.
Andre Agassi
Image
Coaching to me is correcting mistakes and trying to get your players to think. If raising your voice occasionally gets them to think better, then that's called coaching.
Steve Spurrier
Image
All you have to do is play better than the other guy and things go well. If you don't play better than the other players then somebody takes your place. Now a lot of guys, in this day and time with the transient nature of the sport, as soon as the competition gets too good, they want out.
Bill Parcells

The guy said NBA players are one in a million, ... I said, 'Man, look, I'm going to be that one in a million.
Kobe Bryant

At least for soccer players, it comes down to a blend of two types of fitness - your base endurance, which comes from longer distance running, and your speed, which comes from sprint-based workouts.
Heather O'Reilly
Image
On a good team there are no superstars. There are great players who show they are great players by being able to play with others as a team.
Red Holzman
Image
Rooney has those things that you cannot teach players - the positions he takes up just behind the front men is a European trait.
John Toshack
Image
Some players, they have all their licks memorized. They think about what they're going to play, but I try to think about what not to play. Tone and phrasing, that's what's important - less is more. The feeling, that's the thing.
Charlie Musselwhite

You look at the assistant coaches under [Pat Riley] that played and they have become prosperous within this game. It triples all the way down from the assistant players to the coaches. Patrick Ewing went into coaching as well as myself.
John Starks
Image
When you play with good players, they will always create chances for the forwards to score.
Jermain Defoe
Image
I know what I want at least, and the older I get I think I'm better at getting it out of players and singers.
Peter Maxwell Davies
Image
But what I'd really like to tell you is I never dreamed of being in the Hall of Fame. Standing here with all these great players was beyond any of my dreams.
Robin Yount
Image
The dollar that's being paid the players has hurt the game. The players take advantage of coaches. The players' attitude is, I make more than you, so don't tell me what to do.
Chick Hearn
Image
Yelling doesn't win ball games. It doesn't put any points on the scoreboard. And I don't think words win ball games all the time. Players do. Preparation does.
Jerry Tarkanian
Image
Ben [Peeler] and I have known each other for a decade. He trusts my crazy ideas and spontaneous combustion and he gets the players I want and knows the kind of personality players I like. He has taste that I trust and that to me is more important than any technical things.
Shelby Lynne

Coaching soccer, like disciplines including journalism, you'll always learn if you're open to it, you'll learn from your players. If that's being smart, fair enough.
Tony DiCicco

I have also known some of the world's finest brains and some of these, though passionately fond of chess, have been pretty poor players. I used to know one of the world's leading mathematicians and whenever we played chess I had to give him the odds of a Queen to make matters more equal, and even then I always won.
Harry Golombek

While all artists are not chess players, all chess players are artists.
Marcel Duchamp

English players are as easy to coach. The problem is that the Premier League has the best players in the world, and statistically not all of them can be born in England. But we don't have enough English players: we are working very hard on it.
Arsene Wenger
Image
You have different levels of players. There's are Premier League, international and world-class levels. The world-class level is players at the peak of their career and there's only maybe 50 maximum in the whole world. Stevie moved from a Premier League player to an international player and then world class.
Gerard Houllier
Image
I can say that hands down from being in this business 32 years we're going to be much better than we were last year just because there's eight new players that now have experience and Palacios will be healthy.
Rick Pitino
Image
Of course I have the odd bad game like other players. But I can't accept that. Especially when things don't go right for United. It all means so much to me to be succesful here. It drives me crazy at times.
Ruud van Nistelrooy
Image
I was so self -conscious, every time football players went into a huddle, I thought they were talking about me.
Jackie Mason
Image
Captivated by its discipline, humanity forgets and goes on forgetting that it is the discipline of chess players, not of angels.
