Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given, rather than exploring the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is NOTHING.

"I workout all summer. I give everything I have during practices and games, and when I think there's nothing left for me to give, I dig deeper and give more. I hate to lose. The competitor in me absolutely despises the idea that I'm not the best or I'm not the most passionate. So I work. I get better. I change my game to give myself and the people on the field around me and in the dugout the best possible chance of being successful. I give what I have for my team. I've also seen the best, I've competed against some of the greatest competition and I've been successful. I make the greatest players- the greatest competitors- work. I've made them think about what they have to do and I'm a threat because of it."
