I'm outgoing. I like being social. But when I think I should be quiet, I am. And I don't think quiet is the right word. Respectful is more accurate. I want to be respectful of people and their space.?

I'm not big into the caveman look like some guys are. But I think it's pretty awesome that guys are more attuned to themselves and making beards a part of their style.

Sad to hear news about Michael Weiner, deepest condolences to his loved ones. His sacrifices as head of players union will not be forgotten.

Sometimes you're timing is good, but they're pitching you really well and you have to adjust. The only way you can do it is if you're in there every day.

I'm not an extravagant guy ... I don't like going over the top on anything. I have what I need and I try to keep it that way.

You're always trying to seize any opportunity or hold on to one if you already have it. It was just a matter of going out there and producing for the team.
