• "An intellectual snob, Cosell wanted to separate himself from everything he believed was wrong about sports, like the noodle-spined sportscasters who wouldn't disturb the status quo; the athletes-turned-commentators whom he sneeringly referred to as the "jockocracy"; and the sportswriters whose dislike for him was returned with equal bitterness."
• "Instead of watching the half time show as if we were actually at the game, there is a panel of what Howard Cosell called the jockocracy telling us what we just saw and giving us scores of other games - which we already know because they constantly appear at the bottom of the screen or are announced by "J.B." or some such alleged expert during breaks in the action."
