“There was a point at which I thought I'd never get the most valuable player, especially the years I played at Minnesota. We never won a pennant there, we were far away from the big media centers of Los Angeles and New York, and I wasn't a flashy power hitter but a guy who hit to spots, who bunted and stole bases.” YearsBigsGuyPlayerMediaNew YorkBasesValuableSpotsLos AngelesFar AwayMinnesotaFlashy Author:Rod Carew
“Computer and video games represent one of the most important new media developments of this generation. Unlike many other forms of entertainment they offer players the opportunity to explore, be creative, learn through interaction and express themselves to others. It is vitally important that we protect and nurture this new art form so that it can reach its full potential. Like most new forms of artistic expression that have come before (music, novels, movies), the primary critics of video games are the people that do not play them.” PeopleArtImportantPlayFormOpportunityGamesNovelCreativePlayerGenerationsMediaExpressionDevelopmentOffersProtectComputerCriticsEntertainmentVideoArtisticPrimariesInteractionNurtureBe CreativeNurturingThis GenerationFull PotentialArtistic ExpressionNew Media Author:Will Wright
“For a while, you could decide when you loan the player out whether he plays against you or not, and I always decided that he could play against us.

“The biggest journalistic game-changer of our time has been the rise of social media and the overgrowth of faux news sources - league- and team-sponsored blogs, player tweets, fanboy sites, rumor mills - churning bits of information and speculation into a clattering fog storm.

“Polls are now even more meaningless than ever... there was the case of Ronnie O'Brien, the young footballer who incredibly found himself at Juventus, and even more incredibly found himself in the running to win an internet poll of the great club's greatest ever player. The curse ironically struck O'Brien a second time when he was at one point leading Time magazine's list of the Greatest People Of The 20th Century. The error in the polling was soon rectified and O'Brien, happily, is leading a highly successful career playing pro-football with FC Dallas in the American soccer league.” PeopleRunningYoungFoundWinningCareersCasesSuccessfulPlayerFansCenturyMediaFootballInternetErrorsClubsListsMagazinesSoccerLeagueCurseMeaningless20th CenturyPollsFootballerDallasPro FootballPollingSuccessful CareerTime MagazineJuventus Author:Ian O'Doherty
“There are only four U.S. tournaments that the very best players in the world play every year - Palm Springs, Miami, Cincinnati, and the U.S. Open. So how would golf or NFL or NHL fare if there were only four times a year that their very best were visible? Tennis went international, and for us to expect it to be popular media-wise is very naïve. And that translates into children and families being interested.” IfsWorldYearsChildrenPlayWiseFourPlayerMediaSpringGolfInternationalNflTennisVisibleTranslatePalmsTournamentsNhlMiamiBest PlayersPalm Springs Author:Jim Courier
