— Charlie Pierce
I'm not into extreme sports or something. I just live a quiet life.

I was a ballplayer, but only for a limited time. I grew up playing in Wisconsin. It's a very sports-centric part of the country that I grew up in and I played a lot of sports, but baseball first and foremost. I played through high school. I was a middle-infielder.

I was an eccentric teenager in suburban New Jersey, in a town mostly interested in sports, popularity, and clothes.

— Caterina Fake
I think sports are meant to unite people.
— Caster Semenya

— Casey Wasserman
I'm really getting into acting and TV. 'Sports Illustrated' is a big, iconic brand I'd like to work for, too. But TV and acting is really funny and a bit more exciting than shooting all the time.

— Charlie Rose
I judge the jobs I've had in this business by the places they took me, and by that standard, there simply has been nothing to match 'The National Sports Daily.'

— Charles Bock
I think sports has done a disservice for a lot of black kids thinking they can only be successful through athletics and entertainment. I want them to know they can be doctors, lawyers, teachers, fireman, police officers, etc.

I was always very different from the other kids. I have an I.Q. of 156. I didn't play sports. I thought big. I thought I could achieve great things. I don't want to sound megalomaniac, but my whole life is about doing something for the world, from as far back as I can remember.
— Chade-Meng Tan
In fact, there's a lot to legitimately hate about pro sports and the way they are conducted.

— Cecily Strong
We were sent outside to our backyard to play sports together all the time - no boy and girl differentiation, just two teams playing.
I first got online in the late '80s when I was an eccentric teenager in suburban New Jersey, in a town mostly interested in sports, popularity, and clothes. I was a reader, into Jorge Luis Borges, and I found, connected to, and delighted in a group of Borges scholars from Aarhus, Denmark, that I met online.
I also watched a lot of football and sports. I haven't had much time to watch too much TV lately.
— Casper Van Dien

In high school, the drama program shifted to musicals, and that's not a skill set I possess, so I let sports be my outlet, and I agreed to play football in college. I was invited to play at the University of Missouri, and I played there for a year, but when all of the talented people are plucked and put in one place, it's scary; it's tough.
— Charlie Weber
I've always made weird sounds with my mouth. I've always been fascinated by the sound design, what you can do with your mouth. I was the kid dancing around in third grade on the basketball court. While everyone would be playing sports, I would be jumping around.
— Charlie Puth
If you offer athletes stipends, then you're into pay-for-play, and that's the ballgame. People should realize that, and they should realize that amateurism never has been a sustainable model for a sports-entertainment industry. It wasn't in tennis. It wasn't in the Olympics. And it's not in big-time college sports.
There are two theories on hitting the knuckleball. Unfortunately, neither of them works.

— Chad le Clos
Rugby and wrestling are sports for real athletes.
I was lucky enough to watch my son hit a grand slam at sports camp, and that was great. Yes, I may miss some things, but honestly, I think I get to see more than a dad who works a daily 9 to 5.
— CC Sabathia
I like all the adventure sports but I like to do them in a safe way.
— Catherine Bell
To me, I can be famous in sports. But to me, I cannot say it means a lot to be famous. Being famous is something I don't like.
This is one of the last unique things to do in the business of sports, to return the National Football League to the city of Los Angeles. I happen to love the city of Los Angeles; I happen to love the NFL - and to somehow be a part of that, a helper in that process, is something I've always been interested in.
