Since my induction into the Sports Hall of Fame I have wanted to have my No. 3 Chevy on exhibit for sports fans to see. I hope others will enjoy the car as much as I have.
It's funny I'm in some ways hopelessly masculine but I don't fish I don't hunt I'm not that into sports. I can't fix a car. I think it's my point of view and the way I see the world.
It's not just the kid who's spent every penny from his job to upgrade his car to tell the world he cares about sports cars it's also the person driving around in a fuel-conscious hybrid electric car because it's more a message to the world than an effective means of saving fuel to be quite honest.
All I want to know is that I can keep this house for the rest of my days and I want to make good music... and have the odd sports car in the garage obviously!
A geek isn't the skinny kid with a pocket protector and acne. There can be computer geeks video game geeks car geeks military geeks and sports geeks. Being a geek just means that you're passionate about something.
The word 'geek' today does not mean what it used to mean. A geek isn't the skinny kid with a pocket protector and acne. There can be computer geeks video game geeks car geeks military geeks and sports geeks. Being a geek just means that you're passionate about something.
I couldn't find the sports car of my dreams so I built it myself.
I'm sort of like a lame single guy in a red sports car.
There's three things men always talk about - women sports and cars.
When they take surveys of women in business of the Fortune 500 the successful women 80% of them say they were in sports as a young woman.
I'm a mad lover of sport. You cannot say a bad word to me about sports. So I know business is involved and I know it can be cynical and of course I watch it but for me it's pure.
The best kids are going to become the best. But the best thing about it is that you're going to learn lessons in playing those sports about winning and losing and teamwork and teammates and arguments and everything else that are going to affect you positively for the rest of your life.
I think that from the time you start playing sports as a child you see that your responsibility to your team is to play the best that you can play as an individual... and yet not take anything away from being part of a team.
Being nerdy just means being passionate about something including everyone - the coolest people on Earth are passionate and therefore nerdy about something whatever it is whether it's sports or gaming or technology or fashion or beauty or food or whatever.
A supermodel needed to be able to be on 'Sports Illustrated ' to be able to walk runways to be able to do beauty ads to be on covers. And the girls now can no longer be on covers and be in the ads because your actresses have taken over all the jobs. I don't know what happened but we want our jobs back.
I think exercise tests us in so many ways our skills our hearts our ability to bounce back after setbacks. This is the inner beauty of sports and competition and it can serve us all well as adult athletes.
If architecture is as is sometimes said music set in concrete then football and basketball may be said to be creativity embodied in team sports.
I was very fortunate to play sports. All the anger in me went out. I had to do what I had to do. If you stay angry all the time then you really don't have a good life.
Despite the amazing diversity we're blessed with in this country schools are still in large part segregated because of economic disparity. Sports are one of the few areas where kids are really given the opportunity to interact with those of different races and religions.
As a kid who wasn't into sports at school I felt almost alienated at times whereas in the theatre community there was this amazing sense of camaraderie. Early on we would go to rehearsals with my dad and I was like the mascot for the backstage crew. That was a big part of my childhood so I dreamed of one day doing a play in London.
I got amazing training both with Theatre Sports... back in Edmonton Alberta - I can't give those people enough credit - and the daytime drama I did. Incredible training both of them.
The things that people do now in sports you can't even believe. These are complete total athletes. To see what human beings can do in the highest level is amazing.
We've just got to be careful - with all sports let alone cricket - I think there's so much emphasis on doing the right thing all the time but I think the public want to be entertained when they come to watch sport.
This celebration here tells me that this work is not hopeless. I thank you for this teaching with all my heart and lift my glass to human solidarity to the ultimate victory of knowledge peace good-will and understanding.
