Mickey Rivers quotes:

What was the name of that dog on "Rin Tin Tin"?

Me and George and Billy are two of a kind.

I don't get upset over things I can control, because if I can control them there's no sense in getting upset. And I don't get upset over things I can't control, because if I can't control them there's no sense in getting upset.

It was so cold today that I saw a dog chasing a cat, and the dog was walking.

These guys are so old they're eligible for meals on wheels.

Pitching is 80% of the game and the other half is hitting and fielding.

Your first name's white, your second is Hispanic, and your third belongs to a black. No wonder you don't know who you are.

My goals are to hit .300, score 100 runs, and stay injury-prone.

Out of what... a thousand?

I felt alone out there, like I was on a desert island. I felt like Gilligan.

The first thing you do when you get out to center field is put up your finger and check the wind chill factor.

Ain't no sense worrying about the things you got control over 'cause if you got control over 'em, ain't no sense worrying. Ain't no sense worrying about the things you got no control over 'cause if you got no control over 'em, ain't no sense worrying.

Don't worry about things that you have no control over, because you have no control over them. Don't worry about things that you have control over, because you have control over them.

He's so ugly. When you walked by him, your pants wrinkle. He made fly balls curve foul.

We'll do all right if we can capitalize on our mistakes.

I like playing on this team. We actually been doin' real good. Got a different mix here. Most important thing is you gotta keep pickin' up in paces. That's why we're playing contentious play. We got top names, guys can still hit in the majors, guys been out of the game hittin' the ball, shockin' it. Don't have no old, old guys. Not sayin' they don't get a good job done. Fact is, they've been vice versa. So that's incentive right there. It's been a plus.

You'd better stop readin' and writin' and start hittin' !

Ain't no sense worryin' about the things you got control over, 'cause if you got control over 'em, ain't no sense worryin'. And ain't no sense worryin' about the things you don't got control over, 'cause if you don't got control over 'em, ain't no sense worryin'.
