Sometimes I think sportsmanship is a little bit forgotten in place of the individual attention.

A lot of people think I had such a rosy career, but I wanted to identify that one of the things that helps you have a long career is learning how to deal with adversity, how to get past it. Once I learned how to get through that, others things didn't seem so hard.

I don't love the idea of the responsibility falling on the manager. That just adds to their in-game responsibility.

Early in my career, I decided I never wanted to get out of shape.

I always thought being a gamer and someone who had a sense of responsibility to the game and to my teammates was the honorable thing.

As long as I can compete, I won't quit.

Stubbornness usually is considered a negative; but I think that trait has been a positive for me.
