That was a great, I've never heard anybody say anything negative about that place.
Well, I mean, the baseball stadium itself.
It was wild.
No, no.
Um, like, like did well against, or just didn't like, so I want to get him out.
Yeah.
Yeah. I'm trying to think of names right now and I'm kind of blanking, but There were some players that just didn't play the game the correct way or the way I liked. So you want to get those players out so bad. So bad. And I can't think of the names right now.
Probably CeCe Sabathia. I mean, I had so many good ones. Bob Wickman was a good one.
I mean, we just get along good. You know what I mean? And go out, everything off the field, hang out together, have the same likes or whatever, and it just got along with him good. Just got along. Yeah. One of my best friends still today is Ryan Dracey. He was a teammate of mine in Cleveland, and we still talk every day.
Oh, yes. Yes. But from Boston, I didn't love Boston when I played for them because I was hurt and I didn't play a lot there the first three months. So I didn't get to know my teammates very well there. So I didn't mind that trade.
Indians. Got traded to the Red Sox. The Red Sox. Then traded to the White Sox. Okay. And then signed as a free agent with the Royals and a free agent with the Brewers. So that was your choice.
To go there. Yes.
My wife at the time was born and raised in Kansas City. Okay. Her whole family lived there. So we got a house there and that was a great year.
I loved it. Did you? I loved it because we knew everybody there. Yeah, okay. You know what I mean? And outside in like Blue Springs and Lee Summit, it's really nice there. Especially because I had young kids at the time.
Right. It's, that's a tough, it's a tough question because usually like I want everyone to know that I'm normal and we all, we want people to think that we're normal, but there are fans out there that just kind of just wear you down and just want a picture with you nonstop or whatever it is.
But it was really cool in Kansas city because we had so much help around us and we had little kids and I just, I w I was always told I was always that family man first. So I didn't have a problem with it at all there. Okay, cool.
Oh, big time struggling. Struggling. Okay. Struggling. $800 a month. $800 a month. Right.
Well, I, growing up, we were, I was poor. Like my dad, my mom and dad got divorced. So my dad was on his own for a while. Right. So I was just with my mom and I had two other brothers and she was a waitress and she was just bringing home tips for us. And we went from apartment to apartment. And then my dad came back in a picture, like my senior year in high school or whatever.
So it was really just my mom raising us.
offer tips so we had no money um so i just i'd always stuck with sports and that's what helped me through my childhood but then once i got to the big league i started making this money it was like oh my gosh like it's i remember taking a picture of my first check and i'm like what is this this is two-week check yeah it's just freaking out but i had a problem like we all do like once you get into money like you want to buy stuff shit that you never thought you could get you know i mean but i did how long how long of that period of just buy dumb shit did you go through
