Three thousand, it's just a number. It's just a game

We're (Juan Gonzalez) like brothers. I'm sure he was very happy to see me get it done, and it's not very long from his day, so hopefully I'll see that and we'll be on the same team.

Let me start by telling you this: I have never used steroids. Period. I don't know how to say it any more clearly than that. Never.

I don't think anybody ever saw anybody taking anything.

But as far as I'm concerned, I can still play defense.

But I think mainly, you know, just up in the East Coast, it's where it all originated. You know, Philadelphia. It goes back to the beginning. So, you know, fans have a lot of history, and they love their teams up here.

I don't know what else I can say. I have never taken steroids. For people who think I took steroids intentionally, I'm never going to convince them. But I hope the voters judge my career fairly and don't look at one mistake.
