Some players you pat their butts, some players you kick their butts, some players you leave alone.

I'd be willing to bet you, if I was a betting man, that I have never bet on baseball.

My father taught me that the only way you can make good at anything is to practice, and then practice some more.

I bet on the game of baseball and I bet on my team, even the mistakes I made, I have to take a different look at someone betting against their own team... that's throwing the game.

If I had been busted for drugs instead of gambling, I'd still be managing the Reds and baseball would be paying for my rehab.

I'm just like everybody else. I have two arms, two legs and four-thousand hits.

If you have someone equal in ability to me I will beat him every time because I will try harder.
