I was discussing the happenings of the NBA with a friend today and we got on the topic of Karl Malone – the greatest power forward to ever play the game. We started bringing up our favorite Karl Malone quotes and I realized that the list was endless, nonsensical, and absolutely hilarious.
I decided that I needed to share these with everyone. Here are some of my favorites, however, if I have left one out, please let me know and I will post it immediately. Enjoy the sayings of Karl Malone.
“I ain’t gonna to be no escape-goat.”
“Everybody know that Utah is in Salt Lake City.”
“Karl Malone gotta do what Karl Malone gotta do.”
“I just realized that not only early in my career but, if I was going to play longer, guys foul you when they get tired.”
“What have Larry Johnson do that Karl Malone have not do?”
When asked if he was interested in running for governor of Utah: “It do interest me, matter of fact, it really do.”
Malone is classic! Believe me, there are plenty more out there as well. Jimmy Kimmel thought Karl Malone was so hilarious, that he had a reoccurring bit on his television show where he dressed up as Karl Malone – black face and all. Here are two of my favorites:

Karl I only wish 2 things mate..1) to hava upper body like yours Man!! what alotta cut and definition and lastly 2) in my old age of only 45 yrs of age to dominate like you did but alas I’m only a misely Forward of only 183 cm in stature. Karl you give the term “POWER FORWARD”.. real meaning. Mate totally enjoy your “retirement” as you’ve earnt it. Stay Safe. Crog from Australia..a lifetime Fan..
“I was in ankle-deep water for 18 years, never took a dangerous step, content as hell.”
“This was a great team win. We scored just 12 points in the fourth and coach wasn’t too happy with that.”
Jimmy Kimmel impersonating Karl Malone on ‘Crank Yankers’ reminding viewers on behalf of the Utah Jazz to not be afraid of ghosts. They may be spookie but they don’t bite:

I love Karl Malone. He made me watch ball games on Tv when I had quit many years ago. That is a man! 6′ 9″ of all man. I loved watching him go after that crazed player that dyed his hair all the time. I was sick when he retired. I didn’t realize how long he had played. God Bless you Karl.
