It’s part of our culture, like turkey at Thanksgiving and lights at Christmas, and like those holidays — beyond their meaning — a factor in our economy. Even people who don’t like football tune in to watch the commercials. You can’t say that about many things. ~ Bob Schieffer – “More Than Just a Game,” 2010 February 7th (Super Bowl XLIV)

I was just sitting in my living room the other day watching those two games and you’re there. You’re right there. You’re in the game and the sound is great. It’s phenomenal. It’s the essence of live television. It’s unscripted and beautifully choreographed. The technology is terrific. If you’re in this business, there’s no better day than this. ~ Al Michaels – NBC Sports press conference, Super Bowl XLIII (2009)
The Super Bowl. No one misses this game, Jack; not the big one; not if you’re an American. You are riveted every minute to this game. People are betting a million bucks a minute you are.

It’s time for the pro football playoffs. I love to watch football on TV, and I will tell you exactly why: I have no idea…. Whatever the attraction is, a lot of women seem to be immune to it. I have seen women walk right past a TV set with a football game on and — this always amazes me — not stop to watch, even if the TV is showing replays of what guys call a “good hit,” which is a tackle that causes at least one major internal organ to actually fly out of a player’s body. The average guy cannot ignore something of this importance. ~ Dave Barry – “Fools For Football,” 1994 January 16th, The Baltimore Sun

If it’s the ultimate, how come they’re playing it again next year? ~ Duane Thomas – (Super Bowl V), quoted in Newsweek, 1971
I have no statistics to prove it, but I’m sure the American workplace will be adversely affected on Monday, the day after XXIV. The game will be the focus of conversation, and distractions happy and sad will be the order of the day, not to mention millions of hangovers. I wouldn’t buy a toaster or a parachute manufactured the day after Super Bowl XXIV. You cannot engender such torrid anticipation for an event so great that it requires Roman numerals as a suffix, then expect there to be no social repercussions at its end. ~ Robert Klein – “America’s Pastime: Selling the Big Game,” 1990 January 28th, The New York Times
I always wanted to win the Super Bowl so I could take it and hold it and see what lies beyond it. I think it may be the sun. ~ Pete Gent – quoted by Ray Blount, Jr. in About Three Bricks Shy… And the Load Filled Up, 1989
However, there are several differences between a football game and a revolution. For one thing, a football game usually lasts longer and the participants wear uniforms. Also, there are usually more casualties in a football game. The object of the game is to move a ball past the other team’s goal line. This counts as six points. No points are given for lacerations, contusions, or abrasions, but then no points are deducted, either. Kicking is very important in football. In fact, some of the more enthusiastic players even kick the football occasionally. ~ Alfred Hitchcock
Football players, like prostitutes, are in the business of ruining their bodies for the pleasure of strangers. ~ Merle Kessler

Baseball players are smarter than football players. How often do you see a baseball team penalized for too many men on the field? ~ Jim Bouton
At the base of it was the urge, if you wanted to play football, to knock someone down, that was what the sport was all about, the will to win closely linked with contact. ~ George Plimpton – Paper Lion: Confessions of a Last-String Quarterback, 1965
[Y]ou’re down to two teams. Football is probably America’s number one sport, and everyone’s looking forward to the game. It’s almost like a world holiday… ~ Terrance Knighton – 2014 January 30th (Super Bowl XLVIII)
