I'm 32 now. It's not like 26, 27 and have room for error. |
I'm no doctor, but it hurts. I'm going to take care of it now, while it is early. I'm not exactly blazing with the stick right now. |
It didn't feel good at all, ... Luckily there's no tear but I still have everything right here (points to back of left hamstring). It hasn't gotten any better and it's a little bit colder out here now, a little bit harder to prepare. |
It's a double-edged sword. It's good attention for him and for the team. On the other hand, it takes up a lot of your time. |
It's bad. I'm no doctor but it hurts. The severity I'm not quite sure but it hurts. I couldn't really hear with the crowd but I thought I felt a pop. |
It's not getting any better, and as cold as it was tonight, it just wouldn't get loose. |
It's unfortunate, because he's a Tigers legend, ... and the same people that revere his jersey growing up are talking mad trash. It was ridiculous. We do badly as a team. People who were yelling bad things to Tram weren't yelling bad things to him during the '84 World Series, were they? |
Look at the '99 Reds. I wasn't exactly God's gift to hair bleach. You have to go through an ugly stage before you get to the cute stage. Right now, he's dead smack in the ugly stage. |
Some people have got to assume more accountability, |
Some people might think this or that. I'm his friend. I'm going to support whatever he does. I want him to be happy, if that means not coming out. If he lost his passion for the game, he's not going to hold somebody else up. |
Take care of it now, it's early. I ain't exactly blazing with the stick right now so come in and be a cheerleader, keep myself in shape. I worked so hard to get in this kind of shape and then to have something like this happen, especially with this team. |
That was the thing that got me. |
That's just love coming out. He's just happy to be on the baseball field. He's been out long enough. For him to take this gig -- he didn't have to -- that shows his love for the game. When the love of the game calls you, you're going to find a way to get back into it. |
The reason Pokey got out of the game, it was quite noble. But because it wasn't put out there, he's made to look like he just turned his back on the game, which definitely wasn't the case. |
There are obvious reasons why I didn't say anything, |
