Weather's not an issue when you have that kind of field.

It's a bit strange when someone you've kind of looked up to is really not very nice in person.

The biggest thing is to have a swagger when you take the field. When you're not going well, you have to change something -- the biggest thing is the way you carry yourself. You have to walk like you belong with the best, go up to the plate like you know you belong with the best. That's swagger.

When you come off something really disappointing, you want to come back and kind of regroup and get involved in something positive right away.

When everybody's coming off the field and one guy's coming on the field, it's kind of weird. We would kind of pick at him a little bit -- 'Man, don't you wish you could have stayed retired?' But he comes back in and he's washed down in sweat and he's tired because he's gone out and he's worked hard. As one of his peers, I certainly can appreciate that.

The most frustrating part is when they tell you a field is unusable when you think it's not.
