boo care guy hit home people tyson watch
People want to see everything, ... They want to see him. They want to boo him. They want to watch him hit a home run. He's kind of like a Tyson fight. They don't care about the guy much, but they always want to see him fight. But it's not that people don't care about Bonds.
bodies care expecting guys happen healthy hopefully learn next older problems react skeptical team year
We really didn't have the team I was expecting to have, ... I'm kind of skeptical about what's going to happen next year. This year we had problems getting healthy people. Next year is not going to be any easier. We're still getting older and older. It's not like we're getting younger. Hopefully guys learn from how their bodies react and try to take care of themselves.

Everybody behind Barry is going to be a little busy. I'm glad Mo is healthy, and he's going to have a lot of fun driving those guys home.

It's always emotional. For guys who have been in the playoffs and the World Series, they know how important and awesome it is to celebrate and be in the playoffs. That's what everybody is shooting for from spring training. We had the opportunity. We just found ourselves in a big hole.
almost carry guy huge lose percent runs scoring win
It's like we have to win almost 80 or 90 percent of the games. Can we do it with him? That's the question. They say one guy can't carry a team. In these games, when we're not scoring too many runs and we lose by one or two, he can be a huge difference.

There's always one guy to jump up first.

apology chance guy heard john knew second since type wish
I haven't heard anything like that since John Rocker. I think an apology is not going to be enough for that type of comment. I've said things I've regretted, too, and I wish I could take them back. I would give a guy a second chance if I knew him better, but I don't know him.

He's the kind of guy who can come back after a two- or three-month period and do what he's used to doing.
