They Said It

? Dick Enberg, NBC sportscaster, praising Howard Cosell after his retirement from Monday Night Football: "I'm not a critical broadcaster. I'm probably the captain of the vanillas. But I'm grateful that I can say critical things, and all of us should be thankful to Howard for that."

?Quintin Schonewise, University of Kansas offensive tackle: "My question is, after arriving early in August to three-a-day practices in 100-degree heat, and then into an 11-week season that takes a minimum of 60 hours a week in meetings, practice and travel, and then into a conditioning program until spring practice starts, who's the guy that called a football scholarship a free ride?"
