dream great homeland lives opportunity people touch
I have never been to Africa. It's always been a dream of mine. It's a great opportunity. I get to touch lives of people from my homeland and my blood.
baseball bigger great none picture quick stuff time
We don't need any champagne. None of that stuff like they do in baseball. . . . Just a quick acknowledgement. We have a bigger picture . . . (winning the division) hasn't been done in a long time in Denver. It's great for the fans, but we want to get that ring.
great
It's great to see him. It's great to see him alive.
finally good great seeing talking
It's great to see him alive. He could pretty much not be with us right now. I've been talking to him and seeing him every day, so it's good to finally see him up here.
game good great lead stick team
That's a great team, but you can't let any team get a big lead in their own building, ... This was a good measuring stick for us. We can take this game and see where we are.
arena ball best came familiar fans gave good great grown love loyal married ovation playing
I love playing in the Garden. This is the best arena in the world to play in. They have such loyal fans out there, and they gave me a great ovation when I came in. It's always good to see a lot of familiar faces. The ball boys, when I was here, were little kids. Now, they're grown up and married with children.
care definitely distance great hope ourselves streak teams
I hope so. We need wins. I don't care how they come. We have to find a way to get on a wining streak to distance ourselves from teams in our division. It was definitely a great win.
great guess individual worry
I don't worry about individual accolades. But, I guess when I look back on my career, it would be a great feat.
baseball bigger none quick stuff
We don't want any champagne. None of that stuff like they do in baseball. Just a quick acknowledgment. We have a bigger picture. We want to get a ring.
break crowd next places since toughest until wait won year
Ever since I've been here, this is one of the toughest places to play. The crowd is always on you. It's frustrating. We won (here) in preseason, but that doesn't count. Now we'll have to wait until next year to break the streak.
money plenty
I've made plenty of money in my time. I'm not worried.
ahead doctors short though
(Doctors) told me I'm way ahead of schedule. They didn't want to tell me (a timetable). It wasn't a short one, though (from the surgery).
ball games seven win
We've got seven games and seven winnable ballgames. I think we can go out there and win every ball game.
doctor further injury neither persuade playing quickly risk time trying
I was trying to persuade the doctor that I could keep playing with it. He was like, 'No.' I would risk further injury to myself and neither one of us would have wanted that. It's a frustrating time (to miss). I'm just going to try to get back as quickly as I can.
