" We're here with Yankees outfielder Johnny Damon. Johnny you're 35 years old. How much different to your body feel now than when you return when he time. Well shoot ten years is a lot of time when I was -- if I felt like I hit play every game. Impressions any walls. Go out on night. No more I'm around and watched I watched everything I -- now. I tend to be working out a bit more now. I'm I'm not as fast I feel like I'm close and still. I do feel a lot stronger so hopefully that translates into. A lot more home runs -- in player of pitchers. Johnny in the -- the Yankee years he talked about how after the 2006 season you contemplated retirement yet what happens well. You know I think he lied and was going through my head at the time. You know I was coming off a season where I was. Very bingo and had broken bone in my food which me working out during the offseason real tough. On the death that Corey lad go home kind of put something in the back of my head saying you know what there's a lot. In my life that I have not done and you know baseball takes me away from so much of economic spinning -- birthdays -- my. With my parents with my brother. Being around the kids more in the you know so that crept in my minds and men that I don't want to be that same situation that. Possibly -- was and where he did they get to see the world Hillary did they get to. Enjoy their everything in life so that's that's way I was kind of thinking about all of them. For my own personal. Reasons and you know I took some time off for spring training a year and came back. And fresh. And and then sure enough first game of the season I. Pop pop a cap and then -- think you meant. This stinks didn't old. Johnny. You've been remarkably healthy throughout your career for the most part. And yet you have one frightening incident 2003. Final game of the division series and collision -- Damian Jackson as a member of the Red Sox. What do you remember well I don't remember. That game or a lot of stuff. Leading up to it. I don't remember the series against the Yankees that year home -- I do remember. Aaron Boone's home run because it's. It's always be played yeah. So out there's a lot of things I don't remember there's some stuff down starting to get back. And it's taken a long time I mean people with head injuries just. I mean it takes time and I was very forget full. In the days -- times and now but. You know that that was a very frightening thing is whoever has the head injuries that makes -- take your time. Johnny thanks a lot I think you."
