Let's face it. Whether the stereotype is fair or not, most football players aren't highly regarded for their intelligence (not to say there aren't some smart guys playing the game). And as a result, the large amount of time they spend in front of a microphone answering questions can lead to some very amusing moments.In honor of these blunderers, About Football has put together a collection of the more comical quips to escape the lips of college and pro football players, as well as coaches and announcers alike over the years.
Hey, at least he holds back in practice!
Glenn Hoddle - When a player gets to 30, so does his body.
Bryan Robson - It wasn't going to be our day on the night.
If that had gone in, it would have been a goal.
Alan Green - It was the game that put the Everton ship back on the road.
Kevin Keegan - Argentina won’t be at Euro 2000 because they’re from South America.
Vinnie Jones - Winning doesn't really matter as long as you win.
Stuart Pearce - I can see the carrot at the end of the tunnel.
Jonathan Woodgate - Leeds is a great club and it's been my home for years, even though I live in Middlesbrough.
