As much as I'd like to think I'm a really good designer, I'm average.
I care what people think, but that doesn't change what I say. I am who I am.
I think I've earned a certain level of respect, based on my accomplishments and my consistency.
I'd like to think I did well. I'd like to think that, if I had a must-win game, the guys I played with would want me to have the ball. But no, I don't think I deserve to be in the Hall of Fame.
I've always wanted to be the best in the world as a baseball player, so when I started to think about opening a business, it was with that mindset.
I'm not sure I can think of any scenario more enjoyable than making 55,000 people from New York shut up.
War is by no means something glamorous, and I don't think that should ever be forgotten.
He's been doing that every inning he's thrown this year. He's maturing physically and mentally -- every pitch, every at-bat. He's thinking and he's not thinking too much. He's thinking just enough and he's making adjustments. He's making them on the fly. When you can do them with that stuff, he's going to get better fast and he's done that.

We won a lot more games than we lost when I was down there, and that was the goal, ... I went down there to try and help seal a leak and patch a hole. I'd like to think I did that for the most part. I mean, I certainly didn't pitch as well as I would have liked, but we played well and won games while I was down there.
I used all my pitches like I did as a starter and we located well. I had good command and I pitched.
Everything is normal. And I guess I'm making normal seem really damn exciting right now, but after last year, normal is a really cool thing for me.
said GM Theo Epstein . ''We feel the time in Arizona was time well spent. We intend to continue to be patient with Curt and make sure he's 100 percent ready before we send him out in game situations.
Both of these teams went through a lot this year. To be where we are says as much about the people as it does about the talent.
