atmosphere fans gave people run stadium surprised yankee
I was surprised by the atmosphere in the stadium in Chicago. The fans were loud. Yankee Stadium can be loud. Those people gave them a run for their money.
above almost beyond friendly funny people
It's funny, ... it's almost like Theo is such a friendly guy, so much like on of his peers, I think he went above and beyond so people (thought) he wasn't 'one of the guys.'
people mind singing
I don't mind getting up in front of people and playing - singing by myself, as raw as it comes, with nobody else helping me out, which shows that you have a little bit of talent.
guitar people singing
With music, I'm comfortable singing to people but I'm not that comfortable playing the guitar.
team winning people
People don't own teams to lose money. If you ask any owner whether they would rather make $20 million and come in last place or lose $20 million and win a World Series, there's only one guy who honestly would take that championship: George Steinbrenner. Nobody else.
change decisions discussion hurt involved obviously people relationship rested
I don't think a lot of decisions rested on just Theo's shoulders. I think a lot of people were involved in having a roundtable discussion and having different ideas, so I don't think it will change all that much. Obviously it's going to hurt some because of the relationship he had with the players.

age brought closer door easy enjoyed felt friendly front gap gm honesty level people table
I enjoyed having him around. I think he brought a lot of honesty to the table as a GM and also, he's kind of closer to our age group, so it was easy to communicate with him. The door was always open. People always say that, but it's hard, a lot of times, when you have a big gap in age. A lot of times people aren't as friendly in front offices, it can be more like a principal-student thing. With Theo, you always felt like you were on the same level as him.
definitely expecting hope means noticed people quality satisfy
I definitely noticed it. It just means that people are expecting big things from me. I hope I can come here and satisfy that need for us to have some quality pitching.
against games good knew last looks race season sure three tight time yankees
I'm sure everyone looks at the standings at one time or another. We knew the Yankees would be there from Day 1. We knew it would be a tight race and it will probably come down to the last three games of the season against these guys. They're two good teams.
felt fine pleased
I'm not pleased with the results, but I felt fine physically.
good home runs sleep
I'm not disappointed at all. It's the first outing, man. If I were to give up 100 runs I'd go home and get a good night's sleep and come back tomorrow.
base forgot funny looked might nobody pitch swung third
I immediately looked at Dale Sveum and forgot that he was my third base coach. He might have tipped him off or he might have just been aggressive. I don't know, but I thought it was funny nobody swung at that pitch all year.
kindness swing
I'm pretty much over it now. I'm kind of getting into the swing of things.
