Quotable:

“Let’s just say the list is infinite involving sports personalities seeking to convince us that up is down, green is red and ice is hot. Thus a revelation: Maybe, just maybe they actually believe their lies. After all, they were highly proficient in their area of athletics, or they still are. That means they’ve spent the bulk of their lifetimes training not only their bodies but their minds to perform at an incredible level for long stretches. They’ve willed themselves to prominence.

So, when they mess up in a dramatic and public way, they start by knowing the truth, but then they flip enough switches in their minds over time to become so efficient at perpetuating the myth that they could pass a lie detector test.” – Terence Moore
