If we had a full complement and the airport had a full complement, we could do a better job to make sure more containers are inspected.
If they don't pick (the option) up, I don't know how many opportunities there are going to be for me to play. I'm going to approach it like this season will be one of the last ones I have. Hopefully, they'll allow me to come back. But if they don't, I have to be ready for Plan B.
I don't know what to say. It cost us the game, so I've got to deal with it.
He did the best he could do with what he believed in, and hopefully he'll come here, get a good ovation, have a good weekend, and it will be good for Cardinals baseball all the way around.
I honestly think people are tired of reading about me.
When I retire and I'm back at home with me kids, they're not going to care that I smiled too much on the field. They're not going to care what kind of team player I was.
Having the attitude of just playing the game isn't my strength. I have to be productive. That's my responsibility.
God, it's nice to be treated like a man.
I like to have a good time. I'm playing a great game, so why should I stop smiling when I get on the field?
If it doesn't seem like I'm working hard sometimes, that's someone else's problem.
I get paid a lot of money to play a game with the greatest players in the world. What could be better than that?
I could hear Larry out there, and he was saying, 'Oh, God!' and he didn't want to call it. You really couldn't blame him.
I don't like my kids to say it, but I've used it myself, unfortunately.
I don't like the way I look on TV. I don't like the way my stance looks on tape. Sometimes, I watch my hit tape when I need some reassurance that I'm still a decent player. But I won't go watch a bad at-bat.
