Fishing is a delusion entirely surrounded by liars in old clothes.
Where was the catch? 'Cause I knew one was coming.
I love it when receivers catch the balls with their hands.
I feel like I just grabbed a big juicy worm with a right sharp hook in the middle of it.
Try to catch a trout and experience the glorious feeling of letting it go and seeing it swimming away.
They throw the ball, I hit it. They hit the ball, I catch it.
That's what they pay me to do is catch the football, so I'm going to do my job.
Julio Jones doesn't drop wide-open touchdown passes.
Still fisheth he that catcheth one.
He can run, but he can't hide.
I was taken by a morsell, saies the fish. [I was taken by a morsel, says the fish.]
Dad played with me a great deal, as dads should do, and our chief sport was baseball. He bought me a hardball when I was three years old, and he used to sit in a rocker on the front porch while I sat on the grass in the yard, and we'd play catch by the hour.

At the end of the day, nobody drops a catch on purpose, and even the fielder gets frustrated. As a bowler, when a few catches are dropped, yeah, that is frustrating. But I think, ultimately, it's part of the game.
It would have been a lot of fun as a receiver to play.
The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.
I think baseball - the baseball genre - is this mitt, to use a double pun there, to catch a whole bunch of themes.
I like the way Michael Crabtree plays the game. He's strong, he goes up for the ball, he has that mentality to just make plays.
