When I played, Old-Timers Day was my favorite day of the whole season, because I got to share a locker with one of the great Yankees... It was an out-of-body experience.

These messages that we are sending our kids and the kind of lives people lead today so superficial it seems, just a lot of phony stuff. What does it mean when you really stop and think about it's kind of stupid.

I played for nine different teams throughout my 22-year major league career and I loved every moment of every team.

Every life lesson is on that baseball field.

Hitters never showed me up, as hard as I threw. And I was pretty mean out on the mound.

Baseball as I have said before to many... many parents it's not about wins and losses. It's about the life lessons that are learned on that baseball field. The perseverance, the hard work that it takes, dealing with failure.

I had set the standard for my style of relief pitching so high that when I came back to the rest of the pack, everybody said I was done.
