Superbowl
Herb Adderly, Green Bay Packers cornerback (Super Bowl II):
"(When asked if he would rather play the game in Los Angeles or Miami)
"I'll play anywhere for $15,000."
Joe Namath, New York Jets quarterback (Super Bowl III):
"We're going to win on Sunday. I guarantee it."
A reporter to Doug Williams, Washington Redskins quarterback (Super Bowl XXII):
"How long have you been a black quarterback?"
Eli Manning, New York Giants quarterback on Joe Namath:
"Joe Namath was a great, confident man. That was then, this is now. I am not going to guarantee anything."
Duane Thomas, Dallas Cowboys quarterback (Super Bowl VI):
"If it's the ultimate game, how come they're playing it again next year?"
Ernie Holmes, Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle, on Super Bowl X in Miami:
"I'll be glad to leave here. I feel like eating palm trees. I don't like this place. It's for people with arthritis. They come here to play golf and to die."
Julie Brown to Emmitt Smith, Dallas Cowboys running back (Super Bowl XXVIII):
"What are you going to wear in the game Sunday?"1
Bill Peterson, football coach:
"Men, I want you just thinking of one word all season. One word and one word only: Super Bowl."
Tom Coughlin, New York Giants head coach:
"We have taken precautions. The medical people have done the best they can to distribute some medicine, if you will, in advance of the plane trip out there. Hopefully the guys are rested enough that this will not be an issue."
Safety Rodney Harrison, on Randy Moss' play:
"It's not about catches and stats...It's all about wining. Coach Belichick, whether you're a free agent, a draft pick or a guy that's been here for five [or] eight years, he tells you [to] check your ego at the door, and that's what Randy's been doing."
Amani Toomer, New York Giants wide receiver:
"My first Super Bowl I was real giddy...I'll be honest with you, I was just happy to be around. Now just to get off the plane and see all of the cameras, I'm just focused on the game and what we have to do in order to beat the Patriots."
Thomas "Hollywood" Henderson, Dallas Cowboys linebacker (Super Bowl XIII):
"Terry Bradshaw couldn't spell 'cat' if you spotted him the 'C' and the 'A.'"
Matt Millen, Oakland Raiders linebacker (after learning the Washington Redskins' OG Russ Grimm said he'd 'run over his own mother to win the Super Bowl') (Super Bowl XVIII):
"I'd run over Russ Grimm's mother to win the Super Bowl, too."
"(When asked if he would rather play the game in Los Angeles or Miami)
"I'll play anywhere for $15,000."
