I'll never worry about not being successful. I'll just take it one day at a time, one season at a time. And play as hard as I can.

Back before I injured my hip, I thought going to the gym was for wimps.
Bo Jackson
Image
I have no problem with my hips - I can still do the things that I used to do. I can run, I'm just not the fastest person on the field anymore.

I've always played with kids that were five, six, seven years older than me.
