"I had to take my helmet off because I know that the guys like to pound helmets and my head can't take too much more
beating," Damon said.
"I'm actually surprised it's not as bad as I thought it was," he added. "Last injury was still lingering. I'm still getting
treatment on my knee, but got it hit again, I feel much better, so for future reference, if I hurt my knee, I'll just hurt
it again and maybe it'll feel better."
"I live on a street (in Orlando) where there's a 25 mph sign and the cops get you if you go anything over," Damon said.
"I'd wait on the side of the street at night and when cars started coming, I'd race them to my house, so I know I can go at
least 25 (mph). I think I scared the cars and they'd speed up a little more because they'd see a caveman running after
them."
"I'm gaining weight the right way: I'm drinking beer," Damon said.
"I don't think we want to compare ourselves to the Yankees, so we'll do everything opposite of them,"
Damon quipped.
"It was almost like he was using a scuffed ball. He was that good. He pitched well enough to pitch a perfect game, almost.
That was definitely the best game we've seen all year."
"We know that we had some heartache last year. We felt like we had the best team out there. We were just a bunch of cowboys
out there last year, just enjoying every minute. Now we know we have something to prove. We don't want to be remembered as
a team that [keeps] making it to the playoffs, but we keeping having tough losses. We want to be known as a team that rewrites
the history books."
