More quotes by Jennie Finch
College was the greatest four years of my life.
Jennie Finch
When I was growing up, softball had stereotypes along with other female sports. But society is definitely changing since the WNBA and WUSA. Muscles on female athletes are OK now. Young girls can look up to beautiful, athletic, fit women.
Jennie Finch
Softball has given me so much in life. It's taught me the kind of person I want to be, and given me a sweet sisterhood. It even led me to my husband.
Jennie Finch
The attention I get has been great. It has opened so many doors for me. It's nice that people are accepting beautiful women as athletes. It's encouraging to girls that muscles don't mean you can't be beautiful.

This whole career has been way more than I ever even imagined or dreamed.

Jennie Finch
A macho attitude is totally to my advantage. Guys try to hit it 400 feet out of the park, but in softball you have to use a short, quick swing. Big, huge swings equal big, huge strikeouts.
Jennie Finch
I do my job on the mound and then do what I can at the plate, always working on helping the team anyway I can.

To keep children healty, it's important to keep them active. Of course you can control what goes into their mouths, but it's also about putting the active back into family activity. Go outside with them, live in the moment and encourage them. That'll help you find fulfillment in your life as well.
Jennie Finch
Got any pitches? I got five pitches-rise-ball, curveball, screwball, drop-ball and changeup.
Jennie Finch
I don't want to be just a face. I want to go out there and prove something on the field.
Jennie Finch
You're not going to get off the couch and be at some amazing fast pace or burn crazy amounts of calories, but you have to start somewhere Eventually, you'll get there.
Jennie Finch
Looking back, I've learned the most from the bad coaches, really, how not to act, how not to coach, how not to treat people. So I always say no matter what situations you're faced with, how bad it is, you can always walk away and learn. You can always rise above it.
Jennie Finch
I try to squeeze in a workout whenever I can, even if it's doing squats with my 7-month-old in the kitchen or jumping on the trampoline with my 5-year-old.
Jennie Finch
I mean, I love winning, but losing is a much more intense feeling.
Jennie Finch
My family vacations were softball tournaments.
Jennie Finch
Have unconditional love to your children no matter what happens. Give them time even in the midst of this busy life - be one on one with them.
