- Favorite Sports Quotes/Cliches:
- "Ching, wonderful touch, Creavalle...Warren Creavalle, Ching getting into the box, squares it, to the back post, the volley! Are you kidding? It's Oscar Boniek Garcia! He slams the dagger in New England, it is now 2-0! Five star entertainment here at BBVA Compass!"
"And a missed header gives Chamakh a chance to seal it once and for all for Arsenal here...And. He. Has!"
"Burke is the batter and Ensberg is on deck... and the pitch, swinging... lining it to left... It's GONE! It's gone! It's gone! Chris Burke. Holy Toledo, what a way to finish! Chris Burke just purchased a ticket to St. Louis!"
"Brad Davis... D-Ro, for the corner...he got it! There's his big one! And there's the dance! De Rosario has made it 2-1 Houston! Dwayne De Rosario with another huge moment in his career! And Houston has the hammer in the MLS Cup 2007!"
"Line drive, right-center field, that's number 3000! And he drives in a run, and he's going for second! Tavaras with the throw... he's out, but that's 3000 hits for Craig Biggio! It ties the ballgame. He arrived 20 years ago from Smithtown, New York, with Texas-sized dreams, and now, as he's mobbed by his teammates, those dreams have become reality, and they'll be recognized someday in another town in New York, Cooperstown."
"We had nonbelievers all along the way, and I have one thing to say to those nonbelievers: Don't ever underestimate the heart of a champion!"
"Davis winds up, he shoots....oh, I say! Brad Davis has done it for Houston! How fitting! You can't let Brad Davis turn here. Gets turned, no pressure, and look at that thing dip. Perfect technique."
"Howard gratefully claims it. Distribution brilliant, Landon Donovan. Are things on here for the USA? Can they do it? Cross, and Dempsey is denied again, AND DONOVAN HAS SCORED! Oh, can you believe this? Goal! Goal, USA! Certainly through, oh it's incredible! You could not write a script like this!"
