I Feel Pretty Good. My Body Actually

Yes, Hard Is Good. When I Was In High School, I Spent A Lot Of Time On My Knees Playing With Balls. I Guess It Was Only Natural That I Became A Catcher.

When You're 25, You Can Eat Hamburgers And Pizza And Drink Beer And Stay Out All Night And Come Out The Next Day And Drink A Couple Cups Of Coffee And Just Play. If I Did That Today, My Heart Would Stop And I'd Need A Stretcher And An Iv.

I Found It Hugely Insulting That People Believed I'd Go So Far Out Of My Way - Living With Playmates, Vacationing With Actresses, Showing Up At Nightclubs - To Act Out A Lifestyle That Would Amount To A Charade. If I Was Gay, I'd Be Gay All The Way.

Nobody Wanted Me. Scouts Told Me To Go To School, To Forget Baseball. Coaches Said, 'you're Never Going To Make It.' I Appreciated Their Honesty, Because I Think When Someone Tells You Something You May Not Like, You Have To Use That As Fuel For Motivation.

I Long For The Days When Athletes Were Revered. I Want To See The Romance Return To Sports, To See People Enjoy The Game Purely For The Game And The Players.
