I hope baseball doesn't get to the point where everyone's saying, 'He takes it [steroids]. He takes it. He takes it!' because not all of us do. I've been big my whole life, and I'll always be big. That's all natural.

Cincinnati needs to take notes from Houston. Houston fans are among the top five fans in the game.

In baseball, it's tough to get up for every single game, every single moment. In football, you have 90,000 fans screaming and the band's playing. I do miss that adrenaline rush.

I'm a small-town guy, and moving to a huge city might be an adjustment.

I'm a realist. And realists don't fool themselves.

Cincinnati is perfect for me. I've met a lot of good people there who like to fish.
