Have I said dumb things? Absolutely, who hasn't? But I have never backed away from being called out on something I did or said wrong.

My father left me with a saying that I've carried my entire life and tried to pass on to our kids: 'Tough times don't last, tough people do,'

I'm not sure I can think of any scenario more enjoyable than making 55,000 people from New York shut up.

In baseball, I was always in control of everything until I let the ball go.
