? David Greenwood, on being traded by the Chicago Bulls to the San Antonio Spurs: "Like they say, there are three things a pro basketball player can't control: injuries, knucklehead coaches and being traded. Now I can say I've experienced all three."

? Bum Phillips, coach of the New Orleans Saints, after passing a physical examination: "If I drop dead tomorrow, at least I'll know I died in good health."

? Hank Bullough, new coach of the Buffalo Bills and a fast man with a malapropism, delaying a press conference until the arrival of late-coming reporters: "Wait just a minute. I'll go out and see if any of your common parts are here."
