Famous Inspirational Football Quotes

Here are some of the memorable football quotes:

1. “Football isn't a contact sport, it's a collision sport. Dancing is a contact sport.” --Duffy Daugherty

Perhaps Mr. Daugherty is trying to eliminate the notion that football is an unmanly “contact” sports.

If you can’t do all those things you said you can’t do, you’re never a good football team.

Women aren’t interested in things their men spend time on besides their women.

I bet Mr. Plank would beg to differ.


11. “Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that.” --Bill Shankly
