I throw better than anybody in college and I can throw with anybody in the pros. There, that's what I think.

The will to prepare, the guts to risk, and the desire to be the best. These are trademarks of champions.

It's real nice and exciting for me to break the records, but it's more exciting for me to be on a winning team.

Leadership comes by the example you set through your work. It begins from the way you are perceived as a worker and the respect that comes with it.

As a team, you need to come from behind every once in awhile just to do it. Good for the attitude. It makes it exciting. And when everybody knows you have to throw it... that makes it fun too.

The scoreboard can't make you a loser. If you walk off the field with your head up, you don't lose. You don't hang your head for nobody. People in the stands think you're the greatest or the worst - their opinion doesn't make a difference. The only opinion that makes any difference is your own opinion of yourself.

I don't need to be motivated by anybody. Never have.
