Football (The Big Game)

Football is a big deal around here. Tomorrow’s Super Bowl game is expected to break television viewership records. Due to some genetic flaw, I have never developed a taste for football. I have watched only one Super Bowl game in its entirety, and that was back in the early 1990s. Just for fun, I found and read a few quotes about football on the internet. I am sharing my four favorites:

“Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that.”

—Bill Shankly

“Gentlemen, it is better to have died as a small boy than to fumble this football.”

—John Heisman

“There are two times of year for me: Football season, and waiting for football season.”

—Darius Rucker

“If a man watches three football games in a row, he should be declared legally dead.”

—Erma Bombeck
