I was a pitcher, shortstop and outfielder, and the Yankees tried to sign me out of high school as a first-round draft pick in 1981. I turned them down to go to college.

I'm the type of person, I cross the bridges once I get to 'em. I don't try to plan my life three, four months in advance, because you don't know if tomorrow's promised to you.

I was the type of guy that used to get up in the morning and go out and just out run everybody on the field without stretching or warming up or anything.

So, I got a lot of recruitment letters from track.

I think everyone would love to see Jeff Gordon lose or get run into the wall, but I think he uses that - similar to me.

The only thing I would change is during the summer - when I was working my summer job, if I was smart, I would have taken flying lessons at Auburn.

Football is easy if you're crazy as hell.
