Similar to the other guessing threads, this one challenges you to name the sports figure who said the quoted line. It could be an athlete, coach, commentator, etc. Could be current, or historic.
Whoever guess correctly within a day gets to post the next quote.
To make the quote itself stand out from general discussion, please use bold text for it.
I'll begin....
"Nice guys finish last."
