I often warn people: "Somewhere along the way, someone is going to tell you, 'There is no "I" in team.' What you should tell them is, 'Maybe not. But there is an "I" in independence, individuality and integrity. - George Carlin There is no "i" in team but there is in win. - Michael Jordan

Michael Jordan and Magic and myself all learned how to play the game in college programs that emphasized the team. - Kareem Abduljabbar I've always been one of the youngest guys on the team. But now I'm one of the older guys, one of the more experienced guys, and I have to be more of a leader. The guys are looking up to me, asking me questions and looking at me to step up. - Freddy Adu It means a lot to you, to be out there. The highs are pretty high, and the lows are pretty low. You know, it's easy to feel like you let the team down. I mean, at the end of the day we still got to figure out a way to get through the tie. - Andre Agassi The morning of the game, I'd woken up in my rez house so my dad could drive me the twenty-two miles to Reardan, so I could get on the team bus for the ride back to the reservation. Crazy. - Sherman Alexie You've got to be extremely careful, because you could be with a great team, and you could be the product of a great team. There...

I feel like Josh, Michelle and Adam were all team players, who wanted to be a part of an ensemble. - Adam Arkin In the German football team players from different clubs need to get on with each other both on and off the pitch. In the grand coalition Christian Democrats and Social Democrats sit in the same boat and need to pull in the same direction. - Angela Merkel Football's about the young players, bringing youth team players through to the first team and hopefully getting the best out of them so they can go on to play for their country. - Wayne Rooney

Running on different types of racetracks is challenging - not only for the drivers, but even more for the team members who have to make adjustments to the cars before each race. - Michael Andretti The secret to success is good leadership, and good leadership is all about making the lives of your team members or workers better. - Tony Dungy To collaborative team members, completing one another is more important than competing with one another. - John C Maxwell

Running on different types of racetracks is challenging - not only for the drivers, but even more for the team members who have to make adjustments to the cars before each race. - Michael Andretti The secret to success is good leadership, and good leadership is all about making the lives of your team members or workers better. - Tony Dungy During the mission, Walter Jones, a team member was given a package containing bone fragments by a Lao. The source said they were from a crash site. He presented photographs showing himself in company with others digging around obvious aircraft debris. - Bo Gritz Trust is knowing that when a team member does push you, they're doing it because they care about the team. - Patrick Lencioni To collaborative team members, completing one another is more important than competing with one another. - John C Maxwell No matter whether you are new or an old team member, you need time to adjust to one another. - Yao Ming

-So...uh, you're a Team Edward kind of guy? -No. I'm a Team James or Team Tyler's Van, but apparently neither of them won by the look of it. She's still alive - Jennifer L Armentrout So... uh, you're a Team Edward kind of guy?" He snorted. "No. I'm Team James or Team Tyler's Van, but apparently neither of them won by the look of it. She's still alive. - Jennifer L Armentrout Alex- "So... uh, you're a Team Edward kind of guy?" Seth - "No. I'm Team James or Team Tyler's Van, but apparently neither of them won by the look of it. She's still alive. - Jennifer L Armentrout

Pittsburgh was a great team. Coach Noll, Joe Greene, Jack Lambert, L.C. Greenwood and all those guys did a great job. That's the team that kept us from winning two Super Bowls. It was a great rivalry. - Earl Campbell I'd give my life to be the national team coach. - Diego Maradona

Paul patted Mrs. O'Leary's snout. The living room shook BOOM, BOOM, BOOMwhich either meant a SWAT team was breaking down the door or Mrs. O'Leary was wagging her tail. I couldn't help but smile. - Rick Riordan Coitus interruptus by SWAT team. At last a form of birth control that was one hundred percent reliable. - Laura Lippman Yeah, right, like Catherine Deneuve has her own hot-guy SWAT team trolling the neighborhood for celebrity stalkers with swords - Kate (Die For Me) - Amy Plum This was the first time since I'd started working there that I hadn't received a look of all-out disgust or, at the very least, a snarky comment, and all it had taken was a SWAT team of New York fashion editors, a collection of Parisian hair and makeup stylists, and a hefty selection of the world's finest and most expensive clothing. - Lauren Weisberger

I was the captain of the latent paranoid softball team. We used to play all the neurotics on sunday morning. Nailbiters against the bedwetters, and if you've never seen neurotics play softball, it's really funny. I used to steal second base, and feel guilty and go back. - Woody Allen First of all, let me say thank you sir for the opportunity to scrub your jockstrap with my personal toothbrush. Of all the players on the Congressional softball team, you are by far the sweatiest. - Jarod Kintz I don't want to hear about the endless struggles to keep sex exciting, or the work it takes to plan a date night. I want to hear that you guys watch every episode of The Bachelorette together in secret shame, or that one got the other hooked on Breaking Bad and if either watches it without the other, they're dead meat. I want to see you guys high-five each other like teammates on a recreational softball team you both do for fun. - Mindy Kaling Stalking the girls' softball tea...

How could you have a soccer team if all were goalkeepers? How would it be an orchestra if all were French horns? - Desmond Tutu I want kids. I want a soccer team, and I want a husband. - Lady Gaga In my mind, I said the best things to Elton. I wrote countless excellent notes that I never sent. I came up with clever and highly detailed imaginary situations in which we were thrown together and it somehow made him realize that life without me was a hollow shell. But he didn't look like a hollow shell. He looked like he was back on the soccer team, all calf muscles and lean body. - Maureen Johnson By analogy, if we were to develop a soccer team, then we would not invite basketball and volleyball players to the try outs. We would invite soccer players to apply. - Jeanmarie Le Pen She couldn't disappoint the whole village. There were no wallscreens here, no newsfeeds or satellites bands, and touring soccer teams were no doubt few and far between. (...), that made stories a valua...

When I started finishing games and coming off the field shaking hands, it was a beautiful thing. I mean, you start seeing that you're an important part of the team. - Dennis Eckersley And the reason for that I think is that in Australia our films don't get the exposure, so the process is foremost. But anyway, I love being part of the team and hate being stuck in a corner somewhere. - Jacqueline Mckenzie I love being part of the team. - Jacqueline Mckenzie Other times you can get showy for three minutes, and that's OK with certain films. But that isn't right with an Ang Lee movie, you have to fit right in. You have to understand Ang, respect him and be part of the team and not be in charge of it - he is in charge of it. - Dennis Muren It was a joy to be a part of the team that created Round The Horne. I was involved with the show at a time of my life when I was very happy., and that happiness overflowed into the scripts. - Barry Took For me, being a starter doesn...

I can come off as pretty arrogant, but it's because I know I'm right. I'm very, very good at writing protocols. I've accomplished more working on my own than I ever did as part of a team. - Bram Cohen I think that from the time you start playing sports as a child you see that your responsibility to your team is to play the best that you can play as an individual... and yet, not take anything away from being part of a team. - Wayne Gretzky Being part of a team helped me so much. I know the fact that there was a man in the room with me all those years made the medicine go down. I had made the companies money. I didn't have to start, like a lot of women, from ground zero. My path was not the same as a woman starting out by herself. - Nancy Meyers Consequently, I won just about everything I set out to win, everything bar the World Cup, of course. But even now, I don't regret that, because I was part of a team which twice reached the semi-finals. - Michel Patini...

You can't do anything to help your team win when you don't play. - Freddy Adu I told Clinton I want him to rush for 2,000 yards. And I want our team to go to the Super Bowl and win it. I've been there and not won it. It's really simple for me. You get stats, fame and fortune, but if you don't end up with the ring you're never satisfied. - Shaun Alexander We can change our wives," he said. "We can change our jobs, our nationalities and even our religions, but we can never change our team. - Elizabeth Gilbert It's always hard - if you're not the best player on your team, how can you be the best player in college? - Marcus Allen If you're in the best team in the world, you or your teammate have to win. - Fernando Alonso If you respect the art and you have some talent about you, I'm on your team. - Anthony Anderson There was a pause, and then Damien said, "I nominate Erik Night." Shaunee rolled her eyes. Erin said, "Oka...

I often warn people: "Somewhere along the way, someone is going to tell you, 'There is no "I" in team.' What you should tell them is, 'Maybe not. But there is an "I" in independence, individuality and integrity. - George Carlin There is no "i" in team but there is in win. - Michael Jordan

The shouts of triumph become infectious, and I lift my voice to join in, running toward my teammates. Christina holds the flag up high, and everyone clusters around her, grabbing her arm to lift the flag even higher. I can't reach her, so I stand off to the side, grinning. A hand touches my shoulder. "Well done," Four says quietly. - Veronica Roth I spent a lot of time with my teams, especially in the East Coast teams, talking about dealing with the elements a lot of time, and a lot of instruction about field position and those kind of things. I like that variable. - Bill Parcells I'm really trying hard not to do anything that has been done before. So knowing everything I can about the legacy of magic challenges my team and I to invent new illusions. - David Copperfield When I wrestled in College, my team was very good. - William Baldwin I wake up every morning and I feel like I'm juggling glass balls. I live in Los Angeles, my business is run out of London, ...

Some people asked me if it was going to be a downer to come back and play on a college team after playing on a world championship team, and I don't think they understand what it is like to play here. - Lorrie Fair To be a part of a championship team, I'm excited... This is the closest I've ever been to a championship. I'm looking forward to the challenge of helping this team repeat. - Michael Finley I'm not trying to get back on a team, but I have tried to stay in shape just in case a team needs a point guard. A championship team. I wouldn't go to any other team. - Tim Hardaway The heartbeat of a football team is the quarterback position and I think everyone who has any intelligence about the game understands you must have consistency at that position to be a championship team. - Ron Jaworski I've been a very lucky guy. I played on championship teams. I played for Canada. I've won some awards and I'm very proud of those accomplishments. But I do...

It wasn't until late high school and early college that I gained enough size and skill to make me welcome on intramural basketball teams. - Paul D Boyer In sixth grade, my basketball team made it to the league championships. In double overtime, with three seconds left, I rebounded the ball and passed it - to the wrong team! They scored at the buzzer and we lost the game. To this day, I still have nightmares! - Zac Efron The basketball team was trailing by three points. I trail by four pointsnorth, south, east, and west. I also trail by covered wagon. - Jarod Kintz A basketball team is like the five fingers on your hand. If you can get them all together, you have a fist. That's how I want you to play. - Mike Krzyzewski I was homecoming queen. I was star of my basketball team. - Marla Maples I coach my daughter's softball and basketball team. We go to all the school functions. We go out to eat at night and take the kids to the movies. We try to be as normal as we can. -...

We stay as a team. I might be England captain, but that doesn't mean I get treated differently. - David Beckham Sometimes that happens. I know how it feels to lose eight or nine to nothing. It can be frustrating but it was good for us. This was a team that was hot the last nine games. It seemed like any puck we touched went our way. - Peter Bondra Shooting a television show can be very difficult and at times can really wear on you. If you keep reminding yourself that it is a job and you show up together as a team and as a whole, you can prevail. - David Boreanaz The best part of being married is, everything we face in life, we face as a team. I don't do a thing - professionally or personally - without discussing it with my wife. - Michael Chiklis I've been shooting the ball and running a little bit. It's just going out here now and forgetting that I've been out and try to get back in and make sure I know what's going on out there on the floor and that we...

A team will always appreciate a great individual if he's willing to sacrifice for the group. - Kareem Abduljabbar One man can be a crucial ingredient on a team, but one man cannot make a team. - Kareem Abdul Jabbar I think that a president needs to have a variety of views presented. But also, there has to be a team effort, because otherwise, I think it creates a dissonance and difficulty. - Madeleine Albright I think that it won't be long before a team calls that says, 'Just go do what you do'. - Shaun Alexander I am ready. I'm in great shape. My workouts have been great. I'm ready to get back and help a team get to the Super Bowl. - Shaun Alexander I'm healthy and excited to play. And I think this year can be a big year for me if I get the opportunity. I can still play the game. I think I can help a team get to the Super Bowl. - Shaun Alexander The 'transition' involves the transfer of power from one president to another. In recent times, the...
