Andre Dawson Quotations

One of the better guys I've ever played with... quiet, laid-back, but very communicative. Jack had his own style. There's a lot of improvement that needs to be done. I just think there is some direction needed there.

I didn't really panic. I could see the side. I worked my way and reached for the side and one of my friends grabbed my arms and assisted me out of the pool. Why was it near tragic? I swallowed a lot of water in the process. I can remember having pounding, like migraine headaches for a couple of months. All I can remember when I got out of the water was my body went limp. I had no energy and my head was pounding.

He was very low-key. He didn't say a whole lot, but he had that intensity about him. He wanted that ball in a save situation.

He's always been such a private individual. From what I'm hearing, I can't really comment on anything other than I hope he recovers fully from whatever his health issue is.

I won't be different than anyone on the 25-man roster. When Spring Training starts, the mustache goes.

The place was always cold, and I got the feeling that the fans would have enjoyed baseball more if it had been played with a hockey puck.

I want all the kids to do what I do, to look up to me. I want all the kids to copulate me.

I've always thought of myself as an Expo. I probably had better seasons with the Cubs. The fan base and the bleacher bums at Wrigley Field were so enthusiastic compared to later years with the Expos.

This year, there's a window for a few players. But you read articles where they say that this might be the year where no one will get in. It's just hard to say.

They might not get in as early as they thought they would. I think that the numbers are tainted. You just don't hit 70 home runs and have guys hit it in back-to-back seasons. It opens your eyes that there's something wrong here.

Donation for the Blind. A Fee for Falling into their Own Trap.

I don't really see the logic behind it. I just hope that a lot of these guys don't pull up with injuries. There's a difference between getting ready for a season and getting ready for a season that's going to last three weeks.

The inevitable did happen and they moved, but I think baseball will always live on here. You really hate to see the city lose its franchise because it's going to be very tough to get it again. But to see the banner hanging and know that the fans will always remember, not the names, necessarily, but the support that was here and how it was successful for a long time.
