Jock Quotations

I've always gone for the more sensitive, bookish guy, totally. The jock boys, the sporty guys, I don't know... they just didn't do it for me.

What I loved about 'Summer' was that they were these four bright kids with a wonderful future. In a way, she was the one with the brains, and then you have the beauty queen and the jock and the introvert.

When you watch the first 'American Pie' movie, you're like... 'I know that jock who's kind of sweet and has a girlfriend, and I know that weird off-beat kid.'

The type of mixing that was out then was blending from one record to the next or waiting for the record to go off and wait for the jock to put the needle back on.

I was a jock in college and high school, but I didn't hang out with the jocks. I was sort of a nerd who didn't look like a nerd. I never really fit into any social set.

My first job on the radio was writing jokes for a Baltimore DJ called Johnny Walker, who was sort of a '70s era shock jock who all the teenage boys listened to in my school.

I'd like to see him just off the pace. But if he breaks running, I wouldn't want the jock to take hold of him.

I always wanted to be a filmmaker, but I started acting when I was 9 years old. I looked a certain part that I wasn't, really. I played, you know, a high school jock with a lot of attitude or a spoiled rich kid, and I was neither of those things. I was from a very working-class family in Van Nuys.

For some strange reason we got on together. Maybe it was because I liked talking about football all the time. We'd sit down on the settee, have a cup of tea and chat about the game. He seemed to enjoy my company and vice-versa. You know, I've met football legends and legends of the entertainment business and they've sometimes been quite disappointing in terms of personality. But Big Jock walked in the room and you knew straight away you were in the presence of somebody special.

I salute the winner, and Johnny rode a tremendous race. My jock rode a great race, too. I want to take care of this horse as well as I possibly can, because he gave his guts for us. They had to run to beat this horse today. I've got a real treasure in Bellamy Road.

I was this jock playing football and baseball for 20 years and had virtually no aesthetic development.

That was big. (Assistant coach Nate) Bernosky said on the bench when Jock hit it that that was a big answer. It didn't seem like we got our legs back after that.

We always watch the game. Well, we will cook and have some people over. My son-in-law is a big jock and he loves football; they'll probably be over. We'll just watch the game and have fun.

You have to be careful (in accusing people of taking bribes), because sometimes what people perceive to be payola really isn't. The disc jock might just like what this artiste or label does, or get lots of request from the public.

Consider the source. Losing is frustrating if you've never put a jock strap on in your life. But for people that compete and know how to win and know what this game is all about, it's not hard. It can be if you don't have character, if you don't have a winning attitude. But if you're a winner, let's live to fight another battle.

I liked Patrick's quote, (that) he would have stopped me. I wanted to know where he was in Game 3. He was probably getting his jock out of the rafters of the United Center.

In the locker room, they would tell me, 'Go get me a jock strap in the back room' or something, ... So I would go over to the Cowboys complex. Bill Bates would say, 'Shawn, go get me a Gatorade.'

I picked up jock straps, I did laundry . . . I did it all.

You couldn't dress at the same time as the guy next to you. No one wanted to see Bill Cartwright's bare butt in their face when they were trying to put on a jock strap.
