"I try to stay in the lines, because that's what adults are supposed to do. But I wish I could go back to the old days when scribbling was allowed."
Damon Washington, Giants rookie RB
On the mentality of being a special-teams player |
"I think Trent should start picking out the names of all the Tampa Bay people who told him he couldn't play and sort of give them the finger."
Tony Siragusa, Ravens DT
On the Ravens QB's return to Tampa |
"When he missed the thing, I marked that spot and as soon as that game was over I went right out there and scooped up a big double handful of grass right on the divot. I stuffed it in a couple of Gatorade cups and still have it in the refrigerator."
Mike Pope, Giants TE coach
On what he did after Bills kicker Scott Norwood's missed game-winning field-goal attempt in Super Bowl XXV |
"I have 67 season tickets, so I demanded a recount. So they sent me two chads."
Art Modell, Ravens team owner
On his low number of Super Bowl tickets (no count was available) |
"I heard that Joe Theismann threw some passes at the Ravens practice. He's the guy I drew a goatee on his football card when I was a kid."
Dusty Ziegler, Giants C
Reacting to Theismann cavorting with Baltimore |
"People question me because I never played in the big dance. When you get that Super Bowl, when you've got that on your resume, you can start talking about greatness."
Ozzie Newsom, Ravens' vice president of player personnel
and Hall of Fame TE
On whether this year's Baltimore defense ranks among the all-time best |
"It'll either say, 'The road to Tampa starts on the New Jersey Turnpike' or 'It's about geography, stupid."
Tracy Penn, Giants fan
On a T-shirts idea surrounding his playing David to the Goliath that is the NFL and the Giants in a dispute over his "nj" logo signifying the New Jersey Giants. |
"If he had not been Ray Lewis, if he had not been an All-Pro player, Ray Lewis would have never, ever been implicated ... That's how a lot of people make names for themselves. They took longer time to charge Ted Bundy, who killed 30 people. It took them 24 hours to charge this man."
Shannon Sharpe, Ravens TE
On Ray Lewis' murder charges |
