I Could Ask The Phillies To Keep

If You're Associated With The Philadelphia Media Or Town, You Look For Negatives. I Don't Know If There's Something About Their Upbringing Or They Have Too Many Hoagies, Or Too Much Cream Cheese.

I'm 61 Now, And I'm Comfortable In My Lifestyle... I Don't Yearn For The Limelight On A Regular Basis. I Get A Kick Out Of It Every So Often. I Go To Philly And Go To A Game, And They Make A Big Deal About Me. That's Fun For A Couple Of Days, And I Can Go Back To My Own Private Life.

I Could Ask The Phillies To Keep Me On To Add To My Statistics, But My Love For The Game Won't Let Me Do That.

But Remember This: In The Final Analysis, You Can Believe In Your Dream, You Can Be Taught, Supported, Motivated, And Loved By Others, But Ultimately, Your Success Depends On You. You Must Take Responsibility For Your Body, Your Mind, And For Your Character.

They Read Their Sports Pages, Know Their Statistics And Either Root Like Hell Or Boo Our Butts Off. I Love It. Give Me Vocal Fans, Pro Or Con, Over The Tourist Types Who Show Up In Houston Or Montreal And Just Sit There.
