It's a great, great experience to finally get the reception that you know you rightfully deserve.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A really great reception makes me feel like I have a great big warm heating pad all over me. People en masse have always been wonderful to me. I truly have a great love for an audience, and I used to want to prove it to them by giving them blood.
I wish that every player could feel what I've felt in visiting ballparks. The receptions I've received, it's blown me away. It's absolutely remarkable.
I think I owe thanks to the people who have listened to me over the years, who tuned in on the radio. They have given me a warmth and loyalty that I've never been able to repay. The way they have reached out to me has certainly been the highlight of my life.
That's an amazing moment, the first time you hear yourself on radio. It's still thrilling.
I'm very grateful for the experience at NBC.
It was a lovely opportunity for the first time in my whole career to stand up and thank people who are really responsible for me getting to realize my dreams.
Court TV will always hold a special place in my heart, and I will always look back at my time there with great gratitude and affection.
It feels great, definitely feels great to have your number called and be a part of the offense.
All the appreciation I have been receiving has been very encouraging. It pushes me to do better.
I'm a big believer that the reception is not the endeavor. And what I enjoy about almost all my work is the endeavor, the doing of something.
