I've done a lot of growing up and realized a lot of things.

You can take my cars or my house, just don't mess with my clothes.

Baseball has a funny way to tap you on the shoulder when you least expect it and tells you it's the end.

Anyone can forget about talent, but if you're a good person, your name will be remembered a long time.

We have a responsibility not just as atheletes, but as members of society to treat people well. To do things the right way.

I don't expect people to feel sorry for me. My teammates get more upset about the criticism and booing than I do.

I've never felt overmatched on the baseball field. I've always been a very strong, dominant position. And I felt that if I did my work as I've done since I was, you know, a rookie back in Seattle, I didn't have a problem competing at any level. So, no.
