Getting hit motivates me. It makes me punish the guy more. A fighter takes a punch, hits back with three punches.
Some of the old refs have favoritism toward some of the fighters that are currently fighting. There should be a changing of the guard with the refs, the same way there are with fighters.
Nobody stands out right now. Everybody has similar styles. None of these fighters have reinvented the wheel and created a new style.
When I got out of baseball, I got all the way out. I might watch a World Series game or something.
When I played, I received racial abuse but I was just one of a few black players and we weren't backed up by the authorities.
Being a football manager is no fun at all. You have to put up with all the hassle. It is not surprising that so many turn grey or have heart attacks.
I know what it's like to win things. You need a certain type of player with a determination to win. You see it in the eyes.
To me the most important thing was stirring things up and scoring some runs so we could win a ballgame.
Rickey got a big ranch. Rickey got a big bull. Rickey got horses. Rickey got chickens and everything. And Rickey got a 20-gallon hat.
People recognize me - but if you've been in the public eye as long as I have and people don't recognize you, I feel bad about myself.
I enjoy talking pitching and talking baseball. And I don't have all the answers. I don't claim to, but I'm more than happy to share my beliefs.
There's just a misconception that comes with being a dual-threat quarterback. You run first, throw second. I've proven I throw first and then run if I have to.
I don't picture myself as a normal person when I play football, and I don't think anyone else pictures me that way as well.
I'm human and I've played my butt off for ten years. I'm not a loafer, I'm not a jerk, I'm a baseball player.
In the building I live in on Park Avenue there are ten people who could buy the Yankees, but none of them could hit the ball out of Yankee Stadium.
To go to the next level, you have to be special, and I look for those special qualities in those players, those qualities that I think will translate to the NFL.
The city of Wildwood has been fantastic in helping us and supporting this event. This is a small way of the Soul saying thanks to our fans.
The challenge coaches face is replacing players they were counting on to be major pieces of a puzzle. In a lot of cases, there is just no way to make the necessary adjustments.
A little more movement of the defensive side of the ball, some rules that will be unnoticed, but a big rule will be allowing the jack linebacker to move out of the box sideline to sideline.
As much as I like to be thoughtful and think things through in my decision making - I don't like knee jerk decisions - but I'm not afraid to make decisions.
If I'm the weak link or whatever, I guess that means I've got something to prove. I've always had something to prove.
