I've been proud to be a lifelong Chicago Cub and still be with the Cubs. That's always been important to me and I think it's always been special.
I think sometimes Hall of Famers might get labeled as guys who aren't suited for a coaching job or to be back at the Major League level.
I never forgot the four years I spent with the Phillies, my September call-ups and my big league Spring Trainings. I never forgot that.
The reason I am here, they tell me, is that I played the game a certain way, that I played the game the way it was supposed to be played.
I don't expect any red carpet to the big leagues. If the opportunity comes, then it comes. But I don't think I'm owed anything.
The Democrats need to remind people of where were, in terms of our progress, as markers against where we are, and where we've fallen, and how we've declined under Bush.
I wouldn't throw all spitballs. I'd go maybe two or three innings without throwing a spitter, but I always had them looking for it.
I never did like Cleveland. Don't know why. Didn't like the town. Now, the people are all right, but I just didn't like the town.

At the minor-league and major-league level, you know how important your coaching staff is, but in a big market it becomes absolutely huge.
We've gotten through a lot of tough times, and we're going to keep working to make them better. I wish the record was better.
A majority of Americans oppose partial-birth abortion, and Judge Hamilton's decision flies in the face of Congress passing and President Bush signing legislation banning such horrible acts of violence.
I don't just think regular season. I think playoffs. World Series. That's how I think.
The first thing you do when you get out to center field is put up your finger and check the wind chill factor.
I do feel very honored to get all this attention. Basically, what I need to do is to go out there and perform. That's what I'm intending to do.
As I get older every year, I'm eating better. As a kid, who can turn down chips and candy? But I'm getting better.
I grew up a Phillies fan. Me and my buddies tailgated a couple of times when they won the World Series. I like just being in that atmosphere.
Obama's plan for "change": Let's do everything Bush did, only with more suck! Because it just didn't suck badly enough the first time!
A salute from this corner to President Bush for saying he was willing to investigate raising or eliminating the cap on salaries subject to the Social Security tax.
The modern presidency, as expressed in the policies of the administration of George W. Bush, provides the strongest piece of evidence that we are governed by a fundamentally different Constitution from that of the framers.
Liberty? Independence? Are they to remain only words? Gentlemen, let us make them fighting words!
