Football players and managers spend a lot of time during a season in front of a microphone, answering questions from journalists.
Generally these interviews go between a sports reporter and football celebrities well, but sometimes also blunders or remarkable or funny statements are made:
Most football players are temperamental. That’s 90 percent temper and 10% mental.
Doug Plank – NFL Football Coach
You have to play this game like somebody just hit your mother with a two-by-four
Dan Birdwell – Former NFL PLayer
I want to rush for 1,000 or 1,500 yards, whichever comes first
George Rogers – Former NFL Player … who is not great at maths…
I resigned as the Broncos coach because of illness and fatigue. The fans were sick and tired of me
John Ralston – Former NFL Player and Coach
You have to be mean to be a football player. Some of the best players don’t know how to be mean, and that’s why they can’t get their team to the next level. I’m supermean on the field. If my mom was out there, I’d run over her
Michael Bennett – NFL Player … who loves his mom…
Family members get to see you play. … Ex-girlfriends that wished they wouldn’t have dumped you, they’re questioning themselves right now. So, it’s fun
Steve Smith – Former NFL Player
I just forgot to shave, I guess. … I kept my beard for about two-and-a-half, three months. It was more of a superstition thing. We didn’t lose ever since I had it, so I wasn’t going to go in there and shave it for the Super Bowl
Julian Edelman – NFL Player .. who did not want to risk to lose the Super Bowl
Doing exactly the same exact thing we always do: not having sex on Wednesdays, watching Homeland, just chilling
Michael Bennett again .. explaining how he prepares for NFL games
