This is our f---g city. And nobody is going to dictate our freedom.

I just come do what I've got to do, play my game. And I don't worry if anybody likes it.

If I can't hit at a high level, I won't play, and I know there comes a point where my body won't be able to do that.

Trust me, I play the game for the fans, my family and myself.

I'm just another player that comes in and comes out. Everybody's time is up at some point, I don't think that's my problem. I'm just going to keep on trying like I normally do.

Sometimes you just don't feel the same everyday, it doesn't matter what you do, but when you have people looking forward to seeing you perform for them, that puts you in the mood, and that's natural in Boston. That's why it's such a special place to play.

Nobody is going to dictate our freedom.
