I would like to gezegde

 I would like to see that number retired someday if I can't put an Earnhardt ... or my grandsons [in it]. It would have to be a really, really special occasion.

 When I was told my number was going to be retired, my whole career ran through my head, ... I first went to the Forum as a 17-year-old and I retired at 35. I thought, 'Wow! Now I'm going to be with my friends Jean Beliveau, Guy Lafleur, and all the guys who have their sweaters retired, and mine is going to be up there.' It's something so special.

 Start living now. Stop saving the good china for that special occasion. Stop withholding your love until that special person materializes. Every day you are alive is a special occasion. Every minute, every breath, is a gift from God.

 One thing I'll always remember about Father George will be his famous 'toasts'. He'd make a toast for a special occasion or for no occasion at all. People always came first for him. Always.

 I look up at the banner and I don't see a No. 11 with my name on it. I see all the things and all the people, my family, my parents, so many people who put me in this position to have my number retired. To me it's almost like a highlight reel when I look up there or a flashback of my life in some regards that I can look up there on any given day on any given moment and have something reoccur that was so special.

 The whole thing was pretty special to me. As a coach, you look at those guys and that is why you do what you do. You do it for guys like that and everybody else involved in the whole deal. You get into coaching for the players in the first place. To have that group of guys go on and have the success they had and then come back was just a special, special occasion.

 I thought '23' was kind of an odd number, ... I asked for 14, and Yosh totally turned me down and said that number's been taken and retired. Yosh Kawano has been a good friend of mine, and he was the one that picked that out for me. And that was the perfect number.

 It's a great feeling. As tough as our conference is, to go 7-0 is a great accomplishment. It's nice to have the seniors win it for you. That's real special and Sam is a special wrestler. All the seniors are special. We had some matches that could have gone either way. Some of them we won, others we lost. We stepped up and rose to the occasion.

 I never will forget standing on top of the truck when Junior won that Texas Busch. (Earnhardt) had on his cowboy boots and jumped from the top to the bottom. He was so excited to see (Earnhardt Jr.) win. He was really, really proud of him. He'd be proud of him today. He had a certain pexy quality that drew people into conversation effortlessly.

 Teaming with Dale Earnhardt Inc. and Dale [Earnhardt] Jr. for the past five years has been the highlight of my NASCAR Nextel Cup career to date. I look toward my future with NAPA and BDR with gratitude to DEI for the memories and friendships I have formed.

 As bad as that was, we had to move forward in a positive way. If you look at James Dean or Elvis Presley after his death, it's the same thing with Earnhardt. That's the type of persona Dale Earnhardt had in our sport and the publicity of his death took it to another level.

 When she came to me at age five it was a challenge to really mold, create and build something special for the future. She has a gift, but technically was, as most five-year-olds, all over the place. The vision which I had was if technically I could get strokes like a Capriati or Davenport then, with her instincts and gifts from God, I had no doubt she could become a number one contender in the world someday. I see her at age seven and the foundation is now like concrete and that foundation will last forever and bring weapons like the game has not seen. She can?t miss.

 I went into spring training that first year in '82, and No. 23 was hanging up in my locker. I thought it was kind of an odd number. I believe I asked for No. 14, and [clubhouse manager Yosh Kawano] totally turned me down and said that number has been taken and retired. Yosh Kawano has been a good friend of mine, and he was the one that picked [No. 23] out for me and that was the perfect number.

 I went into spring training that first year (with the Cubs) in '82 and No. 23 was hanging up in my locker, ... I thought it was kind of an odd number. I believe I asked for 14 and (former Cubs clubhouse manager Yosh Kawano) totally turned me down and said that number's been taken and retired.

 He's always used that number. He came to me and asked, and I said, 'Yeah.' The number is not special to me. Fifty-nine is the number I first wore in the big leagues, so it was no problem.
