I've separated my shoulder and my collarbone; I've messed up my knee a million times. I've broken my foot in several places.

I don't like comparisons with football. Baseball is an entirely different game. You can watch a tight, well-played football game,but it isn't exciting if half the stadium is empty.

Baseball has an aesthetic, intellectual appeal found in no other team sport.
