“I have no problem with my hips – I can still do the things that I used to do. I can run, I’m just not the fastest person on the field anymore.”

Back when I was training, probably the only nutritious thing on the market was Gatorade-that’s all that we knew. But now in this day and age, people are more prone to go out to try new things to enhance their performance on the field-to enhance their physical appearance.

[A]ll the categories of creatures act individually as special-case and may be linearly analyzed; retrospectively, it is discoverable that inadvertently they are all interaffecting one another synergetically as a spherical, interprecessionally regenerative, tensegrity spherical integrity.

I have been a fan all my life, but now I have been out of football for over 10 years, and out of baseball for a little over six years and I don’t go to games.

My workout was running down fly balls, stealing a base, or running for my life on the football field.

I wanted to stay close enough so mom could see me play – where I could go home if I needed to.

I would say my greatest achievement in life right now – my greatest achievement period is – and I’m still trying to achieve it – is to be a wonderful father to my kids.

Football is easy if you’re crazy as hell.

I could throw the discus for great distance s without the proper spin and throw technique.

So you have to be more mentally focused in baseball.

The older kids decided to pick me on me starting when I was about 6 and it didn’t take me long to take a stand for myself.

So, I got a lot of recruitment letters from track.

Set your goals high, and don’t stop till you get there.

I struck out with two men on base. I was so angry, so frustrated, I turned and without even thinking about it, snapped my bat over my thigh.

The only thing I would change is during the summer – when I was working my summer job, if I was smart, I would have taken flying lessons at Auburn.

I was always the fastest and strongest kid in my school so events like the 100 meter and discus throwing attracted me.

I was a pitcher, shortstop and outfielder, and the Yankees tried to sign me out of high school as a first-round draft pick in 1981. I turned them down to go to college.

Insomnia’s different,” I said. It was hard to explain this to people. “You know the light that comes on when you open the refrigerator door? Just imagine it stays on all the time, even after you close the door. That’s what it’s like in my head. The light stays on.

That’s the advantage of insomnia. People who go to be early always complain that the night is too short, but for those of us who stay up all night, it can feel as long as a lifetime. You get a lot done

In its early stages, insomnia is almost an oasis in which those who have to think or suffer darkly take refuge.

Insomnia is a glamorous term for thoughts you forgot to have in the day.

It’s funny how insomnia has a way of hauling faded memories up from the cellar of the mind.

Today I fell asleep reading a book. The book is called INSOMNIA. I win.

Insomnia is revenge for the thoughts we have refused to have in the day.

Insomnia. Restless soul. Long dark nights. Haunted heavy heart feels. Foggy.
