..."THE VISION OF A CHAMPION IS BENT OVER, DRENCHED IN SWEAT, AT THE POINT OF EXHAUSTION, WHEN NOBODY ELSE IS LOOKING."...

...Baseball is like church, many attend but few understand...

.."It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone...

.."The best kind of person in the world. The cockiest, dirtiest most irresponsible group of athletes in the universe. Will booze at least 3 times a week and pretend we are still dedicated. Not afraid to live the dream life. Ladies love us. Guys want to be us. We are the soul of the universe, We are baseball players."
