I think Mulder is the worst FBI agent in the world. He spends millions of dollars investigating these paranormal phenomena and never comes up with any evidence. He's the Kenneth Starr of the FBI.
David Duchovny
We all know people for that length of time and people change. They mature. There is a certain expectation that a fictional character does not change. But you can't go back and play him the same way.
David Duchovny
When I was a kid I ate sports books up, like Winners Never Quit by Phil Pepe. That was like my bible.

I reread Ball Four by Jim Bouton, the father of all sports books. Aside from that, and books like Out of Their League by Dave Meggyesy, sports books generally pull their punches.
