initiate mean moved situation
What did I do to be a villain? ... Well, I mean you can't look at it that way. I didn't initiate it. It's a situation where I showed restraint, and I moved on from there.
certain expect hopefully overcome situation sure
You got to do the right thing, you've got to live a certain way and do the right things that's required. If you're not doing it, you can't expect to be working for somebody. So they did what they had to do, and his situation I'm sure got to him and hopefully he can overcome it.

Imagine if you came to work and you wanted to be positive, and somebody made a positive situation negative. I don't want to be negative. I've been fighting for 17 years, always negative. Why can't I have something positive done?
baseball fans guarantee guy hands hit message people send situation strong takes throw whatever
The only thing I wanted to see is that whatever takes place ... is to try to send a strong message that fans can't throw things or hit people or put their hands on anybody. If you're out on the street, I guarantee that same guy doesn't put his hands on me. So why should we be penalized for a situation like that because we're on a baseball field?

I'm sure everybody in a family has a person in their family that has a problem ? drug related or whatever. He happens to be the one. It's just one of those things where when he hurts, I hurt.

came depression disturbed drove hurt imagine looking looks lost reason saw womb
That hurt me - that's what drove me into depression where I didn't care. Once I saw my grandmother and him, I lost all of what I had in me. I said, 'He's the reason she looks like that.' I'm still not out of it. I get real disturbed at night. Imagine this person you came out of the womb looking up to. It's just tough, man.

I'm not playing, am I? That tells you how I feel.

I'm getting on top of the plate like I did last year. I'm just trying to compensate and make adjustments. Running, I'm pretty much about half speed. That's about all I got.
