I'm human and I've played my butt off for ten years. I'm not a loafer, I'm not a jerk, I'm a baseball player.
The will to win is worthless if you don't get paid for it.
The only reason I don't like playing in the World Series is I can't watch myself play.
I represent both the underdog and the overdog in our society.
Being a superstar... can make life very difficult, difficult to grow. So I like to visit with my friends, listen to some fine music, drink some good wine, perhaps take a ride in the country in a fine car, or... just walk along the beach.
I couldn't accept the racial epithets in reference to players like Elliott Maddox or Billy Sample.
