en I'm man enough to admit that I screwed up, but I wish y'all would have a more realistic perspective on this thing. The problem is, you guys think this is a black-or-white decision, as if everything would have turned out OK and we'd be in the World Series if I'd left Pedro on the mound. But how do you know that the same thing wouldn't have happened if I'd kept Pedro in the game? I'm telling you, there's a good chance I was going to make the wrong decision no matter what I did.

en What surprised me was when he went out to the mound with a watch on and was, like, surprised when we asked him to take it off. I thought maybe he got a World Series ring and a World Series watch, so that's why he seemed to be angry about that. There was a little glare coming off of it.

Then I realized it might not have been a World Series watch.

en That's why I love playing here. You work so hard to get to (the World Series) and if, in fact, it comes about, there's only a few cities that really, truly genuinely appreciate that. There's only a few teams that I want to win a World Series with. Boston was one, and Chicago is another.

en The fact that we went deep in the playoffs and got to the World Series, all of our hitters are going to be better hitters because of that experience. Jason Lane's a better hitter. I was watching the World Series video over the weekend. Jason's at-bats in the World Series were pretty impressive. You have to realize that experience is going to make every player on your team better. They're experienced World Series players.

en I've lived with God every day for a long time. When I got busted in 1987 I turned myself in because I knew I'd messed up. What I did was so shocking to me. I hurt people, stole from them. For about three weeks I just lost myself, my morality, values. I didn't care about anything or anybody in the world. I knew it couldn't go on. For several years after that I read books to try to find out what happened to me, and I finally decided I got bitter, I was addicted to heroin. I was in a bad marriage where drugs were involved and I got to a point where I didn't care about myself because I had such a horrible life.

en I don't care if I hit .200 or .250. All I care about now is winning another World Series. It's not about me, it's about my team.
