"When you're out on the West Coast, it's very obvious. Our games start later. A lot of the media and the people that are bracketologists, they don't even watch our games. They just get the internet. They're in bed by 10 p.m. East Coast time and our game's just starting or maybe it hasn't started yet" – USC men's basketball coach Andy Enfield, on what he perceives as East Coast bias in the media (L.A. DAILY NEWS, 3/10).
"The feedback I've gotten on Twitter is, 'Don't get hurt out there.' Our fans are rooting for the Giants. They want to make sure I'm going to be healthy for the Giants, and they don't care as much about the WBC" – Giants SS Brandon Crawford, on how the ambivalence of some U.S. players toward playing in the WBC reflects the mixed signals they receive from fans (ESPN.com, 3/10).
"What I say doesn't make much difference. These guys (NASCAR and track officials) have to decide it. If we don't like it, we don't have to show up. But I'll tell you one thing -- they start hurting our commercial value with these schedules, then you'll see me put my hand up" – Team Owner Roger Penske, on his concerns about shortening Cup weekends (AUTOWEEK.com, 3/11).
