If I worried about appearances, I wouldn't be at Cubs games.

I really want to see the Cubs in the World Series. I really do.

I just appreciated so much the contract they gave me, and I wanted to give something back to the Cubs' organization.

You never know when you're going to throw a no-hitter or if you're ever going to get the chance to do it. It's one of those deals where the ninth inning comes around; it's either going to be your night or just a complete game.

We've got to decide, how much replay do we want? Because if you start doing it from the first inning to the ninth inning, you may have to time the game with a calendar.

When you're in the middle of a pennant race, you can't go up there thinking about home runs.

When is it too late to say it's still early for the Cubs? Try now. Their magic number is 1998, at least until it becomes 1999, but in lieu of a present, they offer you a future.

I'm a Cub fan, and I sit up here and I know when we have a good team, I know when we're struggling, and it affects me just like any other fan, and I just happen to show it on the radio. I can't help it.

One of the beautiful things about baseball is that every once in a while you come into a situation where you want to, and where you have to, reach down and prove something.

If you have a bad day in baseball, and start thinking about it, you will have 10 more.
