The Best Quotes from Ted Lasso

The Best Quotes from Ted Lasso

Ted Lasso is the Apple TV+ series that follows football (the American kind) coach, the titular Lasso, as he makes the switch to coaching football (the British kind) in England.

Just as the kind-hearted coach — played by Jason Sudeikis, who won back-to-back Emmys for his performance — managed to make his way into the hearts of his boss, his players and his community, the ever-optimistic dad has stolen our hearts, too.

At the center of Lasso's coaching skills are his Ted Lasso-isms that range from profound to hilarious and everywhere in between. Here are some of our favorites, as the show kicks off its third, seemingly final, season on March 15.
