I hate to blow my own horn, but I gave a lot of people fits.
I love going out and doing new things.
I always wanted to be a pilot.
I was the type of guy that used to get up in the morning and go out and just outrun everybody on the field without stretching or warming up or anything.
I wanted to stay close enough so mom could see me play - where I could go home if I needed to.
If I miss anything about the sport, it's the camaraderie of old teammates.
I was always active - I went from baseball to football. I didn't have time to work out.
I have no problem with my hips - I can still do the things that I used to do. I can run, I'm just not the fastest person on the field anymore.
So, baseball is probably more physical of the two mentally.
Back before I injured my hip, I thought going to the gym was for wimps.
It is better to give a lick than receive one.
Football is easy if you're crazy as hell.
I am my own person. What I'm doing, I'm happy with it. I'm doing what I want to.
My workout was running down fly balls, stealing a base, or running for my life on the football field.
I am a firm believer in if you can't get it the old fashioned way, you don't need it.
It is better to give a lick than receive one. If anybody got in my way, I tried to run right through them.
The only people I know getting in high places by running their mouth are politicians.
I'll never worry about not being successful. I'll just take it one day at a time, one season at a time. And play as hard as I can.
