Tom Glavine Good Quotations

I've been booed off the field, and I've been carried off the field by people cheering me. So I've seen both ends of it, and I can tell you the bad side of it gets a lot more attention than the good side does, but the good side is pretty darned good when it's on your side.

With me and him it's more about him trying to get me to change my game plan. He made me understand how good some of the other things were that I could do, get me to believe in that stuff.

In the years I've been here, sure. We haven't had a team that's been this good. ... We've certainly gone out so far and shown that we're a good team.

I've had really good ones and a really bad one. I've been on both ends of it.

I'm not going to say it's good for the game. I'm not going to say there are no economic problems,

Not because of my personal relationship with them, but because they're a good team. Anytime you get a complete game against anybody it's nice, particularly against a first-place club that's had success against you.

I just like doing it. If I can do something to help him, then it's good for us.

Good pitching, some power, good relief, good defense. And no mistakes.

It was pretty good for day one. I did much better in my pitching than I did in my vertical jump and my long jump.

(It) kind of locks me in, makes me feel good about my target and where I'm trying to go and where I'm trying to step with my pitches. It just kind of gives you a little sense of tunnel vision.

It's just a number. In many respects, I feel as good as I have in a long time. I had as good a winter workout-wise and throwing-wise as I've had in a long time, so I'm excited about it.
