Nfl Quotes

“When I was in London in 2008, I spent a couple hours hanging out at a pub with a couple of blokes who were drinking away the afternoon in preparation for going to that evening's Arsenal game/riot. Take away their Cockney accents, and these working-class guys might as well have been a couple of Bubbas gearing up for the Alabama-Auburn game. They were, in a phrase, British rednecks. And this is who soccer fans are, everywhere in the world except among the college-educated American elite. In Rio or Rome, the soccer fan is a Regular José or a Regular Giuseppe. [...] By contrast, if an American is that kind of Regular Joe, he doesn't watch soccer. He watches the NFL or bass fishing tournaments or Ultimate Fighting. In an American context, avid soccer fandom is almost exclusively located among two groups of people (a) foreigners—God bless 'em—and (b) pretentious yuppie snobs. Which is to say, conservatives don't hate soccer because we hate brown people. We hate soccer because we hate liberals.”
― Robert Stacy McCain

“When it's too hard for them it's just right for us!”
― Marv Levy

“I was lucky that I was born bigger and faster than the average Joe, and play a game that people are stupid enough to pay millions of dollars to watch.”
― Winfred Tubbs

“The largest culture shock was being Black in this atmosphere. We had white coaches, and they wanted the Black players to be the embodiment of who they were. They would tell us to wear our pants or shoes a certain way; this is what it meant to “be a man.” They thought our path to manhood was to be found in skinny jeans and a tucked-in shirt. (Although now Migos, getting “Bad and Boujee,” has all kinds of young players dressing like that by choice. Go figure.) But they never understood or tried to understand us. They projected their morals and thought processes onto young Black men without figuring out who we were. This struck me as a recipe for our continually being misunderstood, misguided, and misjudged, ingredients for disaster and rebellion, or at the very least for stress and self-destruction and the creation of the very PTSD that afflicts players when it’s all over.”

“People ask me, "Jarod, why haven't you won an NFL Championship by now?" My answer is the same. I reply, "I may not be Mozart, or I might be, who's to say, but if you put me in an elevator, I'm going to make music that fills the space completely, like duck quacks in a can.”

“Never mind the horse's blind, just load the wagon.”
― John Madden

“hate comes at you when you make any stand. It’s the price of trying to be heard. If that’s the case, and we accept it, then it’s a waste of emotion to react to the negativity. The hate, the rage that people throw at you only has power if you let it affect you.”

“People always ask me, "Jarod, why haven't you won an NFL Championship by now?" My answer is the same. I reply, "I may not be Mozart, or I might be, who's to say, but if you put me in an elevator, I'm going to make music that fills the space completely, like duck quacks in a can.”

“It gives the whole game away that college football is so popular in the SEC, where the legacy of Jim Crow and segregation is so powerful, and now they worship Black football players who make no money and are out there providing entertainment. The university people and the networks intentionally create this fake feel—they use the football field to miseducate people with a fictional portrayal of life off the field. The fiction is that because all these white student fans are cheering majority-Black teams, the dynamic is somehow postracial. It creates an illusion for both the fan and the player—the student and the student-athlete—so they don’t have to face how messed-up this country is. You’re not Black on the field. You’re a representative of your school. There’s no New Jim Crow when you’re on the field. There’s no Donald Trump. There’s no Trayvon Martin.”
― Michael Bennett, Things That Make White People Uncomfortable

“We have a civil rights photo collection in our house, a big, beautiful coffee table book with images so vivid they cause jaws to drop. When my daughters and their friends pick it up to look at the young Black boys and girls in the middle of a dangerous struggle, I remind them that our eyes are trained to look at the Black faces and their determination as they walk to school. But I tell them also to look at the white faces in the background: the young, jeering faces shouting slurs and throwing things. “All of those folks are now around your granddad’s age,” I tell my daughters. They’re still with us, and those people now walk around, every day, living with what they did, and either trying to rectify it in their brains, through penance, or voting for Donald Trump and passing that hatred down to their children’s children. That is this country. Them. We cannot afford to pretend they don’t live among us.”

“America is hypocritical with its democracy. How Robert Kraft gets charged with solicitation with a prostitute and some believe he should get a pass based on who he is? How a Florida madam that was that had Robert Kraft in her spa is so close to Republican politicians and including the "president"? How Jerry Jones commits sexual harassment and is a racist can easily take care of his problems with money? How can Conservative and a few Liberal D.A's and AG's refuse to charge cops for killing unarmed black men but quick to charge a black person for unpaid parking tickets? That answer is America is hypocritical with its democracy.”
― Jerome Montgomery II

“If you don’t ask why, you’ll never be attacked or criticized. No one is going to go after you or your family. But if you don’t ask why, nothing, not a damn thing, is ever going to change. I think that’s the difference between philanthropy and activism. Philanthropy is this kind of life-saving work. Activism is when you ask why this work needs to be done in the first place.”
― Michael Bennett, Things That Make White People Uncomfortable

“If I can't forgive birth mother, how can I be out in the world arguing for love, justice, and community? How can I hold her hostage away from my heart for something she did when she was so young? My instincts are to stay angry, but my heart says that anger is the road to ruin.”
― Michael Bennett, Things That Make White People Uncomfortable

“Notably Tebow, while honoring his creator, never interrupted any flag ceremony or disrespected anyone at all, and yet in the eyes of many Americans he was blackballed by the NFL---solely because of his moral and religious stance. When this occurred, there was no concern expressed by liberals that somehow Tebow's rights were extinguished, or that it was unfair that he no longer plays football.”

“I think the worst thing anyone can do is spend time worrying about something they missed out on," Schottenheimer said about not winning a championship in the NFL. "Disappointment? Sure. But I never let it consume me.

"It's been a great journey.”
― Marty Schottenheimer

“¿QUE ES UN TEASER EN LA NFL?

Una apuesta teaser es un grupo de apuestas directas (dos o más) combinadas en una apuesta, donde cada línea individual se ha desplazado a su favor por el número de puntos del teaser.
Hay tres teasers principales de la NFL: teasers de 6, 6.5 y 7 puntos.
En un teaser de 6 puntos de la NFL, la línea se desplazaría 6 puntos a favor del juego de los apostadores. Por ejemplo, si quisieras tomar Ravens -8, se convertiría en Ravens -2 dentro de una apuesta teaser. El diferencial se desplazó 6 puntos (de 8 puntos a 2 puntos). Otro ejemplo sería si quisieras jugar contra los Chiefs -2.5. En un teaser de 6 puntos, la línea -2.5 se cambiaría a Chiefs +3.5.

Se aplica la misma regla para los teasers de la NFL de 6.5 y 7 puntos, excepto, por supuesto, que la línea se desplaza en 6.5 o 7 puntos en lugar de los 6 puntos que se muestran en el ejemplo anterior. Las apuestas teaser de la NFL deben incluir dos o más apuestas "parlayed"

¿TEASER Y PARLAY DE LA NFL?

Una de las formas de evitar la frustración de perder una apuesta contra el spread por uno o dos puntos es con las selecciones teaser de la NFL. Por ejemplo, en un teaser de 2 equipos, obtendrás 6 puntos para ambos juegos (el margen de -7 se convierte en -1). La advertencia es que ambos equipos deben cubrir su boleto para calificar como ganador y las probabilidades son similares a las de una apuesta de un solo partido. Por el contrario, en un parlay todavía se apuesta a dos equipos, pero con el margen original y con mejores porcentajes de pago (normalmente 3: 1). Los teasers y parlays se pueden jugar con 2, 3, 4, 5 equipos o más.”
