White Sox's Ramirez unfazed by pressure - USATODAY.com
"My team in Cuba was always in the playoffs," said Ramirez, who played seven seasons with Pinar Del Rio in the Cuban League. "I've played in the Olympics, I've played international games. I've been in tougher situations, I feel.
"I think psychologically and mentally, I'm prepared for these situations."

"I have a wife and three children at home. That's pressure.
I stood up to Castro and left my homeland for America and the freedom to play ball and live where I want, to do what I want. I have friends and family that have been tortured by the Cuban government. You think a lousy bases-loaded, 1-out, 6th inning situation in the regular season fazes me? I eat those situations for breakfast and poop them out before lunch.
If you do, you Americans are weaker mentally and psychologically than I ever thought. Like Nick Blackburn. Tonight I will own him and make him my pinata."

"PS: And winningugly,
thnk you for always having faith in me, even when I was first signed. Thank you for believing I would be a starter before any other yahoos on the SouthSideSox site did. Thank you for buying my t-shirts and distributing them gratis to increase my fan base. And thank you for telling me I am a normal sized human being. I will not let you down. God Bless American, and God bless you, winningugly."

Good. Now don't use it as a jack rag, for once.

i would have loved one of those t-shirts, but you didn't buy any in men's sizes
and i’ll be damned if i’m gonna support that soon-to-be defunct sox machine. that site is more painful than scuff-dick.
You're on thin fucking ice my pedigree chums, and I shall be under it when it breaks. Now, fuck off.
