But I am delighted to be a Dodger, I grew up a Dodger fan and now my dreams have really come true.

Milton Bradley

I've taken my boys to the house I grew up in. Taken them to the site of Ebbets Field, where the Dodgers used to play. They go to all the Dodger games, and they play Little League ball. I have infused them with New York spirit.

Larry King

My family grew up Pittsburgh Steelers fans, and it's crazy I even got drafted there.

Le'Veon Bell

I grew up watching the Lakers and the Dodgers and the Rams, all local men's professional teams, and never really had any women that I grew up watching.

Julie Foudy

I grew up a Detroit Tigers fan, and now to be an owner of the Dodgers is amazing.

Magic Johnson

I remember one time I'm batting against the Dodgers in Milwaukee. They lead, 2 - 1, it's the bottom of the ninth, bases loaded, two out and the pitcher has a full count on me. I look over to the Dodger dugout and they're all in street clothes.

Bob Uecker

I'm sure everyone knows that my heart is and always will be with the players, the fans and the entire Dodger family. I've cared about the Dodgers for nearly my entire life, and nothing can change my allegiance to this franchise.

Steve Garvey

I didn't get drafted to sit out. I got drafted to play.

Trea Turner

I bleed Dodger blue and when I die, I'm going to the big Dodger in the sky.

Tommy Lasorda

I've got Aussie country pride for sure. I just like where I grew up. I think you've got lots in common with the people who grew up the same as you.

Travis Fimmel

When I got drafted I was sitting at home with my Mom watching the draft live on the internet when my name popped up on the screen. We both jumped up in joy and I immediately called my Dad who was out of town for work. Everyone was thrilled and then about 10 minutes late Matt Anderson (the Marlins scout who drafted me) called to give me the news as well and to start negotiating a contract.

Graham Taylor

I got drafted by the Titans in the sixth round. So I got drafted, but not by much. There's nothing guaranteed for a sixth-round draft pick.

Jason McCourty

I remember players talking to Willie Brown in my presence. Receivers asking, 'Is this who you drafted? I can't believe this is who you drafted.' I was hearing it from my defensive backs: 'Man, you got a long way to go.'

Nnamdi Asomugha

I grew up in Hollywood during WWII, and my mother was afraid that my father was going to be drafted because she didn't think we were going to be able to live on army pay. She didn't want to have to get a job, so she decided to put me to work, and that's how I got started in the movies.

Karolyn Grimes

I grew up wearing black arm-bands when the hunger strikers died. I went on those marches. I grew up basically a Provo, though I never obviously got into any activities. I was writing 'IRA, Brits out' on walls all over where I grew up, but that was a false sense of Irishness.
