I think there's something wrong with me - I like to win in everything I do, regardless of what it is. You want to race down the street, I want to beat you. If we're playing checkers, I want to win. You beat me, it's going to bother me. I just enjoy competition.

What kind of influence did my parents have on my life? Well, they had the most influence. These are the people who are closest to me. My parents are very positive people. They've been supportive. They're always there.

Yankee Stadium is my favorite stadium; I'm not going to lie to you. There's a certain feel you get in Yankee Stadium.

My parents always felt if I worked hard enough I could make any dream come true.

You can't be sensitive, because you're going to get criticized. I don't care who you are, you're going to get criticized.

You know what I want to do? Wake up one weekend and not have to go anywhere and do nothing.

If you're going to play at all, you're out to win. Baseball, board games, playing Jeopardy, I hate to lose.
