There's not many guys that can pitch at the top of the rotation floating around the league.
If I'm in the rotation, I'm in the rotation. If I'm not, I still will support the guys like I am in the rotation. But when I do get my turn, I definitely will make the best of it.
Baseball players tend to have something like 20 good years in them and then around their mid-thirties they aren't in the same shape as the young guys in the league and kind of aren't worth as much. Then they retire before 40. And they are left floating adrift in the middle of the ocean.
Normally a summer league is a dry run for training camp, gives the guys an idea what training camp looks like, and then summer league, you're not really playing against NBA rotation type players, so not a good example of the talent level you'll be facing, but the fall practices give you a good head start.
It's no secret that I think that MLS is a top five, top six league in the world but they're not the top league.
We can never be content with being top of the group in the Champions League and going to the top of the league and being around it; we can never be content with that. We know what we can do and our goal is always to be No 1 and push for titles.
The Champions League is the one thing missing from my career. When I look at the history of the competition and the people that have taken part, the top, top players have all won it. For many, it is why they have been regarded as top players.
You look at all the elite players around the League, the guys that are responsible defensively, the guys that can score at will, they kind of do it all.
Any strengthening of the squad, in a League and Champions League which demands so much, is a good thing because you need many top quality players.
I was a defensive lineman coming out of high school who was considered amongst the top maybe the top six guys, top five guys, and wanted to prove to my team that I was going to be a top guy going into college.
I was a defensive lineman coming out of high school who was considered amongst the top... maybe the top six guys, top five guys, and wanted to prove to my team that I was going to be a top guy going into college.
Man City are a top team, but there are a lot of top teams in this division because the Premier League is the best league in Europe.
I've been inspired by many great players in this league, and it's great to re-inspire younger generations and guys coming into this league.
I've learned over the years that it doesn't matter where you pitch in the rotation. For me, preparation is everything.
Playing shooting guard is different. On defense you have to chase guys around more. On the point I'm just guarding guys on top.
Why shouldn't we pitch to Babe Ruth? We pitch to better hitters in the National League.
It's hard to pick out a single team, because there are so many big games here in the Premier League, obviously there are the top teams like Liverpool, City, Chelsea, I think those big games, the 'big six' are always good. We always look forward to them, we all want to be on the pitch and to win them.
