Baseball is a public trust. Players turn over, owners turn over and certain commissioners turn over. But baseball goes on.
I'm content. I want to have better success in the tournaments than I've had, but I know I'm playing well, so I'm happy with that.
I think as a player there's a sense of urgency every single year that this is the year we're going to have success and do the things we're excited about.
We'll see some simplistic players for a while, who'll then get into more complicated things and evolve with their instruments. This is a cycle that happens over and over again in music.
It's like that scene from The Player when they talk about merging Star Wars and Kramer vs. Kramer, or whatever. You could do that with music and it would just be awful.
I get to play with all these different players who don't necessarily approach music always the same way that I might. So I learn a lot.
I know my football. And I adore football players. The crashing noise of a tackle, the huddle grunting, and the roar of the crowd are music to my ears.
There is also something called the Legislature. There is something called the press. There is something called people. These are all different players on the stage.
When I play, I feel like I'm in a theatre, why should I look ugly then, because I'm a tennis-player?
I think generally the Japanese players have more intensity in practice but generally I do the same things.
Obviously, a power player in a criminal organization doesn't have to persuade anyone. He can just do what he wants.
I know there are a lot of people who believe in me as a player and a person, and I don't want to let them down.
You know, I think I'm the worst player to talk to about statistics.
People have to understand how important it is for the players to let off steam, switch off and relax.
I loved coming up with players in scoring position and I had to drive them in.
The ability of players to jump teams when their contracts are up has hurt fan loyalty.
Early in my career, my 3-, 5- and 9-irons performed differently than my other irons. But I adapted and made them work.
I'm very proud of our NHL players. I think they all handle themselves extremely well and they all work really hard.
There are lots of women tennis players, for instance, but because not many of them seem to have much personality, they're interchangeable. You don't have a feeling about them.
With just about every player in Australia, his whole goal and ambition is to play for Australia. That's why they're playing first class cricket. It's just a different attitude.
I think Serena Williams is the best tennis player of this generation, if not the best ever. It is amazing for her to be playing as well as she is at the age of 31.
