I thought I was having a heart attack or something. They gave me a shot of adrenaline and something else for the asthma so I could do the game the next night. They thought I was crazy to do it. They wanted me to go in the hospital for three days. But I was able to get through it. |
I was really nervous - but not until after it was over. I felt like I had been ready to do that my whole life. |
Nationally, no one ever says anything about my 1,400 games. If you are in New York, everything is magnified. If you are in L.A., the team wins championships every year. Then you get the national pub. But I'm not really interested in that. As long as the people I work for here in Atlanta like what I do, and the fans are happy with me, that makes me happy. |
