    Oh Ichiro, you are a quote machiiiiiine.

    Quoted: "Yesterday when I played, inside my head I said 'I want to go home quickly,' and I swung and I was able to get a hit because I wanted to go home," Ichiro said through a translator. "Today I thought, 'I want to hurry up and get something to eat,' and I swung and got a hit today."

      even though he speaks perfect english, he still gives interviews almost exclusively in japanese.

      sports quotes are deep metaphysical truths about the epistemological structure of the human ontology.

      or not.

      Ha. I hate sports quotes. As a journalist, I never understood why reporters even bothered quoting athletes. They can hardly speak in the first place without their two little ganglia twittering to a halt. When they do speak, it's always the same pre-packaged crap.
