With The Money I'm Making, I Should

People Say I Don't Have Great Tools. They Say That I Can't Throw Like Ellis Valentine Or Run Like Tim Raines Or Hit With Power Like Mike Schmidt. Who Can? I Make Up For It In Other Ways, By Putting Out A Little Bit More. That's My Theory, To Go Through Life Hustling. In The Big Leagues, Hustle Usually Means Being In The Right Place At The Right Time. It Means Backing Up A Base. It Means Backing Up Your Teammate. It Means Taking That Headfirst Slide. It Means Doing Everything You Can Do To Win A Baseball Game.

I'd Be Willing To Bet You, If I Was A Betting Man, That I Have Never Bet On Baseball.

If I Had Been Busted For Drugs Instead Of Gambling, I'd Still Be Managing The Reds And Baseball Would Be Paying For My Rehab.

I'm No Different From Anybody Else With Two Arms, Two Legs, And Forty-two Hundred Hits.

I Think That The Most Important Thing To Me Is Fans. Without The Viewers, Without The Fans, We Have Nothing. So I Think The Fans Are Awfully Important.
