I Decided Very Early That I Was

I'd Like To Be Remembered As Someone Who Showed Up For The Job. I Consider Myself A Worker.

Why The Fairy Tale Of Willie Mays Making A Brilliant World Series Catch, And Then Dashing Off To Play Stickball In The Street With His Teenage Pals. That’s Baseball. So Is The Husky Voice Of A Doomed Lou Gehrig Saying, ‘i Consider Myself The Luckiest Man On The Face Of This Earth.’

In Baseball, Democracy Shines Its Clearest. The Only Race That Matters Is The Race To The Bag. The Creed Is The Rule Book. And Color, Merely Something To Distinguish One Team's Uniform From Another's.

That Other Saying, I'm A Part Of All That I Have Met, I Think That Would Have To Begin With My Wonderful Parents Back In Atlanta When I Was A Youngster Five Years Old I Was Tongue Tied.

I Love What I Do. If I Had My Time Over Again, I'd Probably Do It For Nothing.
