I play because I know I can play the game, so it's their decision whether or not they want to keep me or they wanna trade me. Whatever decision they make, I will understand it.

I can't change something that I've been all my life. But I can work to express myself and talk more.

I don't want to be hiding from people. It would be difficult to be recognized everywhere, so that I couldn't do things ordinary people do.

I'm a family man. I just love being around my family.

I think I can play in the big leagues 10 or 15 years. But more important to me is winning-win, make the playoffs.

I was always thinking, 'One day I want to be like Bernie Williams.'

I learned that I have to work hard every day, that I can't get down if I get in a slump.
