Cricket is not a rational sport in India, and we go overboard.
I just consider Boston and New England incredible sports fans. If they give me trouble, think I'm rooting for other side, it's mainly because they're living and dying with every pitch and every play and think I'm rooting for the other side. I'd much rather that than apathy.
You can't play enough golf or do any of those other things that fill that kind of excitement that coaching gave me in the big games.
I'm a sports fanatic. It's hard for me to commit to the weekly, episodic nature of television, so for me, anytime that I can put a game on, that's what I do.
In the beginning there was not even talking. In movies, there was no need for that. Because it was more evident if there was no talking. Only in sports does there remain this fervor, which can even become violent. There's this desire to see something big.
A lot of people say they eat, drink, and sleep sports, but does anyone really do it, ingesting nothing but Dodger Dogs and Soda Shaqs and Greg Norman Zinfandels 24/7?
There's no other place that exemplifies a fanatic as much as Chicago. I feel like sports fans have bred out of Chicago.
Turkish people are very emotional, very passionate about football, really want to see their team do well.
To look like you are a real sports fan, when there is a game on TV just yell, Oh, come on! every now and then at the TV.
