I guess the rules aren't for everyone.

Through the years I've been getting better and better and better, and it's what you learn though the seasons.

Nobody is going to dictate our freedom.

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.

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.

I guess the rules aren't for everyone.

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