Jim Murray Quotations

The only bad thing about Spokane is that there's nothing to do after 10 in the morning

We're asking you to do everything the city can to keep it here.

I'd like to borrow his body for just 48 hours. There are three guys I'd like to beat up and four women I'd like to make love to.

I don't know what it is, but I can't look at Hulk Hogan and believe that he's the end result of millions and millions of years of evolution.

I find most people hate to be informed. People need to be amused, shocked... or angered.

Joe represented a lot of what was good and decent about the sport. You don't see that today. He was a craftsman. It really is too bad. You don't see those ethics anymore. Without Joe DiMaggio, perhaps they are dead forever.

People have been getting ripped off for ages on these charges. The industry hasn't seen fit to lower them, so the government had to step in.

Like unhitching a horse from a plow and winning the Derby.

Willie Mays' glove is where triples go to die

When Mike Tyson gets mad, you don't need a referee, you need a priest.

Fencing has a special niche or groove -- it's all in the mind and the arm.

There's no arctic air that's been around here for the past month or so. It really allowed us to warm up down around Sioux City.

The U.S. effort to force GM foods upon unwilling consumers is offensive and misguided.

The judge has upheld our constitutional right to free speech, meaning that Allstate and Sterling can communicate and market the benefits of an insurer-owned auto repair facility with our customers and claimants in the State of Texas.

Imposing higher prices on consumers by way of anti-dumping duties is inherently inefficient, even in a good cause.

I never saw any of man's baser acts of inhumanity to man. I never saw screaming 'witches' burned at the stake, Christians tossed to starving lions, maidens pushed over the edge of active volcanoes. I never even saw a man going to the electric chair. But until I do, watching Ben Hogan walk up to a five-foot putt is my idea of cruel and inhuman punishment, only a Hitler would enjoy. You feel like saying 'Go home to your wife and kiddies and don't look upon this terrible thing!'
