    Forgive me if this has ever been posted but everyone has to read these quotes. For those who were too young to remember, Mickey Rivers was an outfielder for the Texas Rangers. Here is a sample of some of the stuff you will find at his website www.mickeyrivers.com

    "I was brought up in Florida, so there isn't much difference between playing there and playing here. The climax are about the same."

    -Mickey Rivers on playing in Texas


    "I don't get upset over things I can't control, because if I can't control them there's no use getting upset. And I don't get upset over the things I can control, because if I can control them there's no use in getting upset."

    -Mickey Rivers


    "The wind was blowin' about 100 degrees"

    -Mickey Rivers' response to the wind in the outfield at Chicago's Comiskey Park

    :D :eek:

    Seems like he did crack before there was crack, a man before his time.
