I never forgot the four years I spent with the Phillies, my September call-ups and my big league Spring Trainings. I never forgot that.
My dad played rugby, so I used to watch a lot of rugby union and rugby league.
It's hard to view myself sometimes as even in the same league as other musicians, mainly because there's so much music before me. I feel overinformed by different styles and different possibilities.
Ted Cruz just in a different league. He understands conservatism because he is.
I saw, he was in a different league on a different planet. Everybody says we need substance in these debates, you've got it. You've got it from [Ted] Cruz.
Wouldn't it be great if our national news media had standards as high as the National Football League's?
Most political journalists come to Washington because they're snappy writers, big thinkers, or news breakers. Me? My ticket to the big leagues had little to do with talent. It was mostly about the governor I was covering, Bill Clinton.
Major League Baseball is the best league in the world, full of capable hitters up and down every single lineup.
Watching National League pitchers trying to hit or even bunt is depressing.
It's not just the NFL. Every other league has a draft. It has been fundamental to the success of professional sports.
The lovers of beauty must unite in a league, and carry out some great propagandist work through the country. They must demand the extermination of the bulldog and the dismantling of the cheap villa, both of which are responsible for a deal of our contentment amid ugliness.
Colleagues will malign you if you're a moderately successful journalist.
I know it will take a little time to adapt to a different team and a different league.
I hope that the biggest change in the game is that people are saying that Major League Baseball owns the next generation. That is what I aspire to, everything we're trying to do is about that, and I hope I have enough time and enough help to get that done.
I pay editors. I never ask friends or colleagues to work for free.
Leo fell in love with every girl he saw-as long as she was completely out of his league.
Live theatre is great. I loved doing the League live because you get that element of spontaneity, but then when I'm doing live I start to crave the precision of filming. It's a different discipline; it's like a scalpel and you're very precise suddenly. It's scary as well because you think this is it, this is my one go at making it if I can the best it can be, because this is how it's going to be remembered and rendered and left on this film indelibly. And people are going to look back on this and that's that.
Could she *be* anymore out of my league?
Only be admonished by what you already see, not to strike leagues of friendship with cheap persons, where no friendship can be. Our impatience betrays us into rash and foolish alliances which no God attends.
I definitely have some colleagues that I respect, and we get together from time to time. But I actually have just like genuine friends.
I've always said, "You make a lot of money in Major League Baseball, and it's all guaranteed, so what do you have to lose by going all out?" .
I'd like to help out in any way I can, especially with the younger guys in the minor leagues. But as far as setting something up, we haven't really talked about it.
If I could even do that [playing] in a softball league, I would never miss anything about baseball.
A lot of people probably say I'm stupid, and they're probably right, because there are people who take days off who are still in the league, and I'm not.
I hope this serves as a light for others who come into the league as undrafted players.
