The contracts are structured different than athletes in America, but for me, it was good to move on and go back to playing in the premiere league, which is the best league. It was disappointing, as far as the team goes, but for me, there wasn't much I could do.
Claudio Reyna
The London Games will be designed for the athletes and we will provide them with the very best venues and the very best conditions to pursue their sporting dreams in London.
Sebastian Coe
The night before I compete, I like to have steak. Meat is especially important for female athletes because it provides them with the nutrients they need to perform at their best.
Sasha Cohen
The only reason we make good role models is because you guys look up to athletes and we can influence you in positive ways. But the real role models should be your parents and teachers!
Dante Hall
The street to obscurity is paved with athletes who can perform great feats before friendly crowds.
George Allen, Sr.
The type of athletes we draft still need types of versatility on the defense side of the ball, run the offense. You should still be concerned on the offense side of the ball.
Isaiah Thomas
There's that initial reticence for some athletes to take you seriously.
Lisa Guerrero
These days the temptation to use steroids in sports has become too great for many young athletes.
Jim Sensenbrenner
They see themselves as athletes and only athletes.
John Murray
They thought that athletes that worked out with my system wouldn't be able to throw a ball because they'd be too muscle bound. Those are the misconceptions I had to go through for about 40 years.
Jack LaLanne
This is America's Team and we are confident this outstanding group of athletes will make our country proud.
Peter Ueberroth
To be candid with you, free agency hurts all sports. It's great for athletes making an enormous amount of money. But to say it helps the sports, I don't believe that.
Jerry West
Too many athletes do not admit their weaknesses.
Bill Toomey
Too many athletes don't have the ability to set a goal and then carefully go towards it.
Bill Toomey
Training of female athletes is so new that the limits of female possibility are still unknown.
Katherine Dunn
Universities exist to transmit knowledge and understanding of ideas and values to students not to provide entertainment for spectators or employment for athletes.
Milton Friedman
We do not use managers, we are the representatives of our athletes, and that is why I am deeply involved in athletics, I follow our athletes careers from start to finish, 100% all the way.
Alberto Juantorena
We feel very honored to have been offered the responsibility to host this great event, Berlin is a wonderful city that is developing at a tremendous rate, and this decision means that we can now prepare to welcome the world's best athletes to a fascinating place.
Otto Schily
We have got to go out there and deliver, go on the streets and find athletes, improve facilities around the country and find coaches. We have got to go out there and search for a star.
Linford Christie
We might not make what athletes in other sports make, but we have greater longevity and we do have certain freedoms to do things they can't do. Like stay home one week and play the next week.
