I've never seen an athlete dominate any sport -- in baseball, in basketball, in football -- like he dominated this series. |
In acquiring Alex Rodriguez, we are bringing to New York one of the premier players in the history of the game, |
It is unbelievable to me that the highest-paid team in baseball would start the season in such a deep funk. |
It makes me feel very good. It really does. He's a good man. I like him. I understand him. I understand what he's after. I'm very happy to have him. |
It was a good road trip. |
It was indeed the right thing to do. |
It's a lot of time, but he's a good player. He'll be all right. |
It's an incredible achievement, particularly when I remember that when I bought the Yankees, we had trouble drawing 1 million to the stadium. We have the greatest fans in the world. |
Joe and I had a great meeting yesterday. We both look forward to bringing a championship back to New York and our great fans. |
Joe is a good man. I wish him luck and hope he does well. |
Jonathan, I couldn't be more proud of you. |
Jonathan, I couldn't be more proud of you. I agree with you when you said, 'The New York Yankees are important to me, but my school is more important.' You're absolutely right and it takes quite a man to give up his personal dream for a higher purpose. |
Mel Stottlemyre will always be a Yankee. . . . While it is no secret I can be a very difficult boss, Mel has always conducted himself as a professional and a gentleman. I wish he and Jean much success and happiness in the future. |
Not good. I'm not going to say any more. |
not pleased with the manager. I don't know why he left him in. |
