"I AM at my usual position."

The trauma of losing.

'Another football scholarship offer?'

'I don't understand why you always put me in goal?!'

'Yes, Jenny, I know I'm always reminding the team to be good sports, but you really don't have to thank the ref after every call.'

"I will always cheer you on, but I will never 'Woo-hoo!' you."

"Winning isn't everything, Josh. Not being the reason your team loses is everything."

"Gracie, I'm proud of you. Your team lost, but you tried your best and that's all that counts."

"There will be a winning team and a losing team. Are you OK with that?"

"I've never been into the other team's end... what's it like?"

"Can we fast forward through the 7th inning stretch?"

'...And remember' It's not whether your dads win or lose the fight in the stands. It's how you play the game.'

'Young players have a tendency to forget fundamentals over the winter.'

'I'm the new kid on the team. Where's my signing bonus?'

"This has been quite a season for Zobrowsky—a hundred an twenty-nine receptions, sixteen touchdowns, a B-plus in English, a B in philosophy, an A in political science, and a B-minus in French!"

'I don't mind being sent off Sir - but not during the warm-up!'

"Would you knowingly cheat to be better at something just to make millions of dollars? Well would you? Son? ... Son?"

'I'm all the athletic support my son will ever need!'
