I don't know -- this is throughout most your career. -- during your post game interviews you're very lucky extremely low key everybody's asking me. Is he happy about that but I mean that's just the way you are in you work you you're telling me right now you it was a great accomplishment your. Jerry I am very pleased. It's one of those things --

Com I usually I usually contain my my emotions and I don't know why there's you know I I just so I don't know why I can't. See myself expressing myself I can see other people doing this it's not me I don't feel comfortable doing but on the inside yeah I'm I'm thrilled I'm happy but. You know to the world they want to say you know sell me something you know we want to know that you actually have fun doing this but no I had a lot of fun doing.

would which leads me to something you've been asked about in -- going to get asked again right here and a I that. And you can tell me whether or hurts or bothers you whatever it's a perception on the field off the field from him let's do -- on the field first. There's been perceptions throughout the years that you're not going a 100%. All the time you heard it you've heard for years you've been able to sit back on it. I mean what would you say it.

It's screw you know as I guess they got a little slow you know I day. And I talked about a few times yeah I efforts thus -- was it's is your opinion first ball and out. People's opinions they are what they are there's no there's no factual about it that's that's their opinion and everybody's entitled to their own what I say is. Look at put to the books you guys who don't care and don't want to play they don't -- we run out there 150 games. They finally get out the lineup I've seen it passing guys finally zero lineup. So from that standpoint I say hey look in my play I've been out there all these games. Guys don't care they don't play they don't come play every day my body language I can't change that from anybody. It's it's not going to change but. You know I haven't had any teammates tell me you know I'm not give NAFTA on a daily basis you have had when I was young I haven't Tony -- kick me in about every now and then.

About your idea and shut the play I mean there's no -- your stand on that lineup no no way now. I'm not come out a lineup until. My we're talking about it -- so good -- being an unsafe for me to be out there and -- it was what do whirlwind when the fans saw me come out of game three. It was unsafe for -- to be out there I wasn't I couldn't I couldn't defend myself I don't think you know from a business standpoint I couldn't see the ball well enough. -- and now just answer the second part of the original question kind words like standoffish Alou. All that stuff for the media tries to approach it any you what's funny. Sometimes a good on the clubhouse and they're just not even trying to approach -- they just what you did I think may well there's one guy who who pulled one guy of course takes two guys praise to god mister Davis total of all the people that well.

The thing have always maintained all along is that you know what he's been the time he -- relationship you don't spend the time United get the relationship and you know I person you know I personally feel if we're gonna work we took on a daily basis. It takes time to get to know somebody and if you decide to come out in the end you need a quick -- gone. You know I -- primary in due time but. You know page two he come over and talked before half hour and man I write an article. Please and he he establishes a relationship and our first many I don't know anything about him and so when he saw consuming.
