You feel like you’re a kid again, poking around in your parents’ closet, only this time there’s no chance of getting in trouble, so you don’t have to be so sure that everything gets put back exactly where it was before you did your poking around.

“It's a long season, you've got to be in for the physical grind. But if you can keep your mind in line I think it gives you that much more room for success.”

“The more positions I can play, it gives the manager a nice headache, and it can be helpful for him.”

“Where I live if someone gives you a hug it's from the heart.”
