Pam,

 

It's never too early to start the bedlam fuel right? 

 

You pointed out some great football quotes, but I think you should add
the following to the list! :-)

 

"If you have a child someday, you'll understand how it feels but you
obviously don't have a child. I do. If your child goes down the street
and somebody makes fun of him because he drops a pass in pickup game or
says he's fat and he comes home crying to his mom, you'll
understand"-Mike Gundy

 

Or

 

"That's the reason I don't read the newspaper, because it's
garbage!"-Mike Gundy

 

But my personal favorite is: 

 

"Come after me, I'm a man, I'm 40!"-Mike Gundy (He's 40)

 

Merry Christmas everyone!
