Origin of Checkers
“I think there's something wrong with me - I like to win in everything I do, regardless of what it is. You want to race down the street, I want to beat you. If we're playing checkers, I want to win. You beat me, it's going to bother me. I just enjoy competition.” “We're not going to let our campaign be dictated by fact checkers.” “LOVE is like Playing Checkers. You have to know which Man to MOVE.” “Eternity is a child playing, playing checkers; the kingdom belongs to a child.” “When you see a good move, look for a better one” “Challenge me. Treat me like a game of checkers and play me. That's all I'm asking, just play me. Treat me like Sega and play me.” “I was on the train the other day, and I heard somebody say, I'm really good at checkers. That's the same thing as saying, I'm not good at very many things.” “The National League game is chess; The American League is checkers” “The farmer doesn't care for the pitchers' battle that resolves itself into a checkers game. The farmer loves the dramatic, and slugging is more dramatic than even the cleverest pitching.”1. Derek Jeter
