The greatest challenge I think is adjusting to not playing baseball. The reason for that is I had to come out of baseball and come into the business world, not being a college graduate, not being educated to come into the business world the way I should have.
Willie Mays

I was a baseball player, I taught baseball, and all of a sudden I was in the business world. Now I used the baseball world to talk about their product. Not too much, just enough to keep going. Just be yourself and you'll never have a problem. That's what I did.
Willie Mays

Willie Mays

George Steinbrenner

George Steinbrenner

I always get very calm with baseball.
Paul Simon

I wanted to definitely be a musician or a good preacher or a heck of a baseball player. I couldn't play ball too good - I hurt my finger, and I stopped that. I couldn't preach, and well, all I had left was getting into the music thing.
Muddy Waters

I want to play music when I want, write a song if I want or watch a baseball game if I want.
John Lee Hooker

The only real game - I think - in the world is baseball.
George Herman

Baseball wasn't easy for me.
Ryne Sandberg

I would change policy, bring back natural grass and nickel beer. Baseball is the belly-button of our society. Straighten out baseball, and you straighten out the rest of the world.
Bill Lee

That was real baseball. We weren't playing for money. They gave us Mickey Mouse watches that ran backwards.
Bill Lee

Baseball is what we were, and football is what we have become.
Mary McGrory

Kids don't learn the fundamentals of baseball at the games anymore.
Bill Lee
