The most important thing you learn as a sports photographer is anticipation - not where the action is taking place, but where it's going to take place. Not where the subject is now, but where they're going to be.

I've been on enough sports teams in my life to have experienced the magic of what can happen when a group of people care for and love each other.

Sports don't define us it is not what we live for.

People here don't identify themselves by their sports team.

I think that people who have played sports have an ability to relate to people because when you're playing you have to work on teams and with opposing players.

I was certain I was going to do something in sports.

I'm a huge fan of Chicago sports and Chicago food, and I love going home and my family is still there. I guess it's pretty easy to have a normal life in Chicago.

Talk radio has almost ruined the sports fan.

I have a pretty expanded view of what art is. I include pop music and even some sports.

Anyone could be in the orchestra, or sports team, or arts club at my school. It was precisely the kind of inclusivity that now meets with a sort of scorn and derision as a prizes-for-all culture that generates only mediocrity. There's something so insulting about the idea that including lots of people means mediocrity.
