I want to stay with the Orioles. I'd like to play here for the rest of my career. I don't want to go through this again in four years.
In some ways, Australian fans are more dedicated and more enthusiastic than some of our most loyal fans in the U.S.
I like the South because of the people. They are loyal. Once they love a team, they're fans forever.
I can't root for the Lakers. I grew up in northern California, so I spent many of my young adult years rooting against the Lakers.
I love the Twins, ... I bleed the Twins. That's all I know. If I go anywhere else, I'd be a foreigner.
A franchise player, to me, is a guy like Kirby Puckett, Cal Ripken, a guy who's been in one organization through their entire career.
Im winning races, Im still challenging for the world championships, the team is fantastic and I have a great relationship with everybody here - so why would I want to even consider changing?
As a citizen of the great city of Chicago, I find it impossible to root against the White Sox. The White Sox organization has been much more consistent, in my lifetime at least, at putting a winning ballclub on the field.
I haven't missed a game in two-and-a-half years. I go to the park as sick as a dog and, when I see my uniform hanging there, I get well right now. Then I see some of you guys (media) and I get sick again.
The contract stuff just happens to be a coincidence to me. I always play every game as if my back is against the wall. That's always something that has been good to me since high school. A lot of people believe the grass is greener on the other side, but I'm not one of those people. It wouldn't be my choice to leave, but the Seahawks know that.
Sometimes, when you have an opportunity in your mind but you lose it because you have a contract with the club and you are an important player for that club, and you miss out on what could be your dream, sometimes it is not easy for a player.
Dans mon coeur, je vais toujours être un Canadiens./Ill always be a Hab at heart.
