First off, see my sig...

Some others:

"They shouldn't throw at me. I'm the father of five or six kids."
-Tito Fuentes, after getting hit by a pitch.

"Hector Torrez, how can you communicate with Enzo Hernandez when he speaks Spanish and you speak Mexican ?" -San Diego Padres announcer Jerry Coleman

"All of his saves have come during relief appearances." -Mets announcer Ralph kiner

Anything that Tyson says is pretty stupid. It's funny as hell though.

There are hundreds of great Tyson quotes. Here's a few good ones:

"I really dig Hannibal. Hannibal had real guts. He rode elephants into Cartilage."

"I guess I'm gonna fade into Bolivian."

"I like the British bikes. I like British people. They're real mellow."

"I can sell out Madison Square Garden masturbating."

"I have some pain I'm gonna have for the rest of my life. So every now and then I kick your f**king ass."

"I just want to conquer people and their souls."

Found a few more good ones courtesy of Bill Simmons, ESPN.com:

"This is how I relax and maintain my composure. Every now and then, you want to kill somebody." -- Buffalo Bills running back OJ Simps-, er, Willis McGahee on Halo 2.

"I have never seen a fight like that in a game since I was in high school."
Quentin Richardson on the Pacers-Pistons melee.

"I'm a big fan of the Nobel Peace Prize."
-- Ron Artest

"It's bad for me because I've never been in jail that long."
-- Rafael Furcal on his 21-day jail sentence

"I wasn't a particularly good pro football player. But I was a great college player, and that's something."
-- Ryan Leaf

"The knee feels fine, I've been training Confuciously."
--Mike Tyson

Freak

"Imagine having to take the (No.) 7 train to (Shea Stadium) looking like you're (in) Beirut next to some kid with purple hair, next to some queer with AIDS, right next to some dude who got out of jail for the fourth time, right next to some 20-year-old mom with four kids. It's depressing... The biggest thing I don't like about New York are the foreigners," Rocker said. "I'm not a very big fan of foreigners. You can walk an entire block in Times Square and not hear anybody speaking English. Asians and Koreans and Vietnamese and Indians and Russians and Spanish people and everything up there. How the hell did they get in this country?"

Oh John.
