baseball motivational-sports two
With the money I'm making, I should be playing two positions.
basketball baseball football
I never gave up as a player, and I won't give up as someone who wants to go to the Hall of Fame, because it's the ultimate goal for a baseball player or a football player or a basketball player.
missing-you sports games
The greatest competitor was Bob Gibson. He worked so fast out there and he always had the hood up. He always wanted to close his own deal. He never talked to you because he was battling so hard. I sure as hell don't miss batting against him, but I miss him in the game.
baseball play chill
It doesn't take much to get me up for baseball. Once the National Anthem plays, I get chills. I even know the words to it now.
baseball eric arms
He (Eric Davis) gets power from his bat speed.....it's like he has cork in his arms.
winning hands gambling
Unfortunately, gambling and winning don't often go hand-in-hand.
baseball games individual
Baseball is an individual game, but it should never be a personal game.
vegas months
I came to Vegas because I work 20 days a month here; I couldn't live anywhere else.
team winning thinking
I don't like to be compared to Joe Jackson. because Joe Jackson, I think, took money to throw World Series games. Well, I know I bet on my own team to win. There's pretty much a big difference there, but both of us were wrong.
daughter husband son
I've got a 15-year old son and a 10-year old daughter, and if they were going to do one of the following things: be an alcoholic; be a drug offender; beat their wife or husband; or gamble. I hope they would gamble.
baseball suspended betting
I admitted I bet on baseball, but I wasn't suspended from baseball for betting on baseball.
sports should-have shut-up
I should have shut up when I went up there and talked to Carlton Fisk.
horse watches bigs
If you're not active - and I'm not active - and you don't watch what you eat, you can get big as a horse.
baseball gambling drug
If I had been busted for drugs instead of gambling, I'd still be managing the Reds and baseball would be paying for my rehab.
