I don't need a captain's band to lead a team to victory.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm not a great band member; I'm more of a band leader.
I've always maintained - a captain is only as good as his team. It is not about my leadership, it is not about me.
It's not that I don't get on bandwagons; I just climb aboard only after most of the band has packed up and left for the next gig.
I don't know if I expected to be a captain of an All-Star team. It's pretty cool.
At the end of the day, though, the band members have to be strong. It's down to the individuals in the unit. Listen to me, I'm talking like I'm in the army and this is my squadron.
Yes, I always say that we're a National League band. What I mean is, if you play an instrument, you have to sing. So I always call our drummer up. Even the drummer has to take a turn on the microphone.
No band is special, no player royalty.
In the bad old days, captains were not good leaders. They didn't build teams; they were arrogant and autocratic.
I think people want success, you know, and I'm the captain.
As a captain, I think it's important that the players really know who you are and what you stand for, what your beliefs are, and to be consistent in those if things are going good or things are going bad.
