But there were a lot of misplaced priorities. I didn't hear any new ideas about the economy beyond tax cuts.
No. I haven't heard anything. There's so much positive talk going around ... I've heard about zero talk.
People now are beginning to cheer for me. I've never heard that before. .. Maybe things are turning a bit.
Ozzie and I have always been friendly, which is why it was a bit surprising. It's really not that big of a deal. ... I haven't spoken to Ozzie. I already heard what he had to say; he apologized and we've moved on. The apology is already accepted.
I already heard what he had to say, he apologized. The apology has been accepted. We've move on from there. Ozzie and I have always been friendly. It's not really that big of a deal.
I had a great year, something I'm very proud of. I left my guts on the field, I left my heart out there, so I'm not going to hang my head. I'm just going to go out and learn from it and become a better Yankee.

It would be a great privilege, ... I think this is the year that anything's possible, because I don't think there's one runaway guy.
It was tough ... on me to be honest with you. I can remember in December sitting in my house, and my mom and my wife having a debate for two hours about it.
It was tough on me. I understand that most people will just ridicule and make fun of it, but unless you understand my background, where I come from and the passion that my family and my heritage holds, I don't expect anyone to understand that.
