Injuries are nothing to be ashamed about.

If I worried about appearances, I wouldn't be at Cubs games.

In our lives in a lot of ways it's all about fake. You've got people wanting things for fake reasons.

Your basic person wants to talk about material culture, internet culture. I think about God, cats, nature.

My pat line about the Cubs and payroll is that the amount of merchandise the Cubs would sell off a world series championship would more than cover for a big payroll.

I did 13-something years of talking to wrestlers and promoters about why they did certain things and why they booked matches a certain way and what they were thinking and whether they were satisfied with the draw. And I got a lot of insight in the business.
