It's critical that the manager has the respect of players so he can make the moves that he feels is appropriate without having somebody go to the papers. They respect you. So you respect them back.

In order to gain the respect of your players in the locker room you can't just perform on Saturday. You have to do it consistently during practices meetings and in the weight room.

I have found that the players who have played in that game really do have respect for their adversaries.

I don't think I look up to any players. Obviously you respect everyone.

EA SPORTS has a strong partnership with adidas and through this relationship they approached adidas about using some of their top players from around the world.

The players wanted more money higher salary caps and they didn't have that family relationship we felt with the players. Mentally the players were more businesslike.

It is one of my pet hates when I see players who have agents who do everything for them. They don't know how to set up their own bank accounts they don't know what they are spending their money on and they can't make their own decisions.

I have 23 top players and they are all ready to put on the jersey and work on the pitch and that makes you happy and then you have peace of mind.

Radiohead and Our Lady Peace are doing the seven layers of guitar and I kind of jumped on that before anyone else did.

Women by their nature are not exceptional chess players: they are not great fighters.

It's always uncomfortable for me when I take off my shirt. No one else is taking their shift off. Why is everyone else in these movies bundled up in layers of clothing and I'm taking my clothes off all the time?

I don't blame the players today for the money. I blame the owners. They started it. They wanna give it to 'em? More power to 'em.

Baseball players are smarter than football players. How often do you see a baseball team penalized for too many men on the field?

All the world's a stage and all the men and women merely players: they have their exits and their entrances and one man in his time plays many parts his acts being seven ages.

I'm always learning from experiences because each one is different and there are different players involved in the project at the time with their own way of doing things.

I started practicing yoga. I started learning some hands-on healing stuff. And I found really good chiropractors really good massage therapists and what I found is I've been able to actually peel off layers of trauma on my body and actually move better now than I did.

The biggest difference is in the leadership. It was better for us. We had more coaches and mentors to help us. A lot of the younger players today suffer from a lack of direction.
