It Is Better To Give A Lick

I Taught Myself How To Pole Vault In One Day. The Next Day I Entered A Meet To Pole Vault And Won It All For The State Of Alabama.

I Am A Firm Believer In If You Can't Get It The Old Fashioned Way, You Don't Need It.

Don't Run Too Fast Through Life. You Only Have One.

My Confidence And Drive To Go Play Came When I Realized How Gifted I Was At Such A Young Age And How Much Bigger My Build Was Than The Kids My Age.

I Struck Out With Two Men On Base. I Was So Angry, So Frustrated, I Turned And Without Even Thinking About It, Snapped My Bat Over My Thigh. The Bat Split Right In Half. Afterward, Reporters Asked Me If It Was The First Time I'd Ever Broken A Bat Over My Thigh. "i Broke An Aluminum Bat Over My Knee In College," I Said. (i Was Just Kidding).
