Quotes taken from the authors in 1970

I don't know if it's how I speak or what it is about me that presents that sort of label, but I don't know how many times I have to be out in public with a girlfriend to stop that from being said.

When I graduated from college I didn't want to play in the AFL.

When you think about your heritage, you think about toughness and hard work.

There are times when I'm watching an NFL quarterback struggling to get through the game, and I get bitter to some extent.

If I had it my way, I never would have left San Francisco, but things change and that's the nature of this business. We have to move on. We hopefully get opportunities down the road that we take advantage of.

It's hard for anyone in the 24-hour news cycles that we all live in now to follow something that the first round is played in March and the final finishes in December. I understand the challenges there.

I've been lucky enough to primarily work for myself over the years.

I knew I was the second-best tennis player in the state of Florida and No. 8 in the United States of America when I was 12 years old and I couldn't tell you what I was in baseball, but I liked my chances in tennis of getting a scholarship to college.

Every player that plays for any organization, having great fans on your side every night is a great thing.

There's an inner feeling you get when you get in a situation to do well in a game. It's hard to explain.

I don't really like filling my brain with a lot of stuff.

Charisma's good every night. Something special is always about to happen. You've got to believe it.

It's tough to strike out. Believe me. I hate striking out. It's no fun. It's embarrassing. But there really isn't anything I can do. It's just a part of my game.
