Thread: Possibly the stupidest quote I have ever read...

Maybe the stupidest quote I have ever read.

_"They don't want to just sit there, line up and play football. They want to try to catch you off guard. They don't want to play smashmouth football, they want to trick you. They want to catch you substituting, know what I mean? They don't want to just call a play, get up there and run a play. They want to make you think. They want it to be a thinking game instead of a football game." (Steelers linebacker Joey Porter, on the Colts)

Coach Dungy: "I'm bored with just plain old 'football.' Let's play a game of 'thinking' instead!"

Peyton: "That's a great idea! Let's change the names of the positions, too! I'm tired of being a quarterback! I want to be a Transformer!"

Freeney: "And I want to be a battle tank!"

Coach Dungy: "Why not? We're playing a completely different game! But I'm bored with it already! Let's play 'Hungry Hungry Hippos!'"

Colts: "Yay!"

Another words, what Porter was trying to get across was... shouldn't there be some kind of rule where the mentally incompetent cannot be taken advantage of?

I guess it doesn't work that way.

I wonder how many "ya know's" were cut from his quote.

Ever notice how pro sports figures say "ya know" every fifth word?

Too true 6, I've noticed it too you know, problem is once you start listening out for it, you begin to realise everyone seems to say it, you know all the time.

Another word pro football players seem to say at the end of every sentence (usually after a good play) is baby.

Ya know you are right.
I'll just be having a casual converstation ya know.
And before ya know what happenes I am saying ya know.
Ya know what I mean?
:lol:

I think the quote from Al Gore when he claimed to have created the internet is more stupid than this one.

THEY DO!!!

Now I will 2 sayings that I notice all the time.

We would play the "ya know" game in college while watching Sports Center.
Slam a drink everytime you hear "Ya know"
We would get plastered in 45 minutes.

Oh the good ole days of college.........................

I was just thinking.............
Old folks homes should be like college.
They would really be the "Golden Years"

:wink:

Well that ranks up there.

Politicians always say stuff like that.

Kerry and his "I voted for the war, before I was against the war" quote is a good one too.

Man there are a million of political quotes like that.

You know they publish books with just political mis-speaks in them.

They are a riot.
