Quotes of 1974

Quotes taken from the authors in 1974

I was blessed with a strong arm and a weak mind.

Mr. Rickey, I'll put more people in the park than anybody since Babe Ruth

The good Lord was good to me. He gave me a strong body, a good right arm, and a weak mind.

Practice, work hard, and give it everything you have.

I can't tell you why there's a delay, but stick your head out of the window and you'll know why.

As a kid, there are some things you looked forward to. You looked forward to Charlie Brown during Halloween and you looked forward to Monday Night Football.

The career isn't guaranteed for as long as you might want to play.

I expected to get drafted. I knew that I wouldn't get drafted on that first day due to the fact that not a lot of people had the opportunity to see me play much.

It's always great when a defense is able to create turnovers and score. That's something we missed last year. We'd get some turnovers, but we never scored points.

I played Baby New Year. When everybody started hollering and throwing confetti, I thought it was for me.

Frederick Kelly

I appreciate my time in the gym.

I'm looking forward to being a mom and a wife and a business owner.

I'd like my children to learn that anything is possible if you put your mind to it, and that when you make a decision to do something like pursuing the Olympics, like I have, it needs to be a family affair.

When I'm in the gym, I'm in the gym, and that is my focus. But when I'm not in the gym, I'm enjoying being a mom and taking care of those responsibilities .. They really do provide me with the balance that I need to be a more complete athlete.

I've been a pretty selfish mom and a very unselfish athlete for about three years now and it's time to put my family first. It's probably time to move on.

I have people that I'm close to that give me things to read throughout the season, and in particular in the playoffs and the postseason.

I don't know how many people feel strongly about what I do.

I'm not chasing money, so I'm not looking at just trying to stretch out a deal artificially just to have a certain number.

I don't feel like basketball is the only way to make a living.

My parents didn't have the opportunities that my wife and I have now, from a quality of life standpoint.
