A little bit surprising, but the rules are the rules. Kansas City Royals live by them and the rest of the league lives by them, definitely not a series you’re going to take lightly going into the break. You kind of see who they have, you game plan accordingly, and hopefully build off this two-game series( sweep) against the Phillies.

There are young people having babies every day that cannot possibly take care of them, and, as people who believe that every life is beautiful, we need to make them aware of another choice - to give that beautiful life up for adoption.

You can tell if someone is about social intercourse or just about browbeating somebody with their opinion. It's no fun arguing with a closed-minded person.

I'm from New York, I'm 53, I have my moments when I'm a nice guy, and more frequently I have my moments where I'm a middle-aged aggravated person. For years I was always the nice guy, so in life I had to pretend to be the nice guy.

Not many skeletons left in my closet because I invite them to dance all over the front room!

People have come to me for my opinion since 'October Baby.' But, hey, look, I'm an actor who is very fortunate to be in a movie that's making wonderful noise, and hopefully helping parents and children to be a little closer. Leave me alone. I'm not talking about politics. I'm just trying to have a conversation with my own kids.

I believe you should be a gentleman, and that's old-fashioned.

I know that if I concentrate on making other people shine, I will shine. It is really about the other person, never about you.

John Schneider

It infuriates me that when people forget what it's like not to be a Christian, and they get into other people's face about their life or their beliefs. It's amazing to me that people feel their relationship is so solid with God that they have enough time on their hands to question mine or to fix mine.

I'm not a Christian for your benefit. I'm a Christian for my benefit, and how I walk my walk is my business, and how you walk your walk is your business.

If it's tough believing what you believe, then maybe it's time to move. But if you are someone who militantly enforces your opinion about anything, then you need to get out of town.

I'm a good dad and a fair husband and I work quite a bit. That takes up a fair amount of time.

It's been a while since I've been to church, but you don't get unborn again.

When a script like 'Hardflip' comes along, with a real depiction of the rewards of a father-son relationship but also the difficulties of building one, you have my attention.

John Schneider

you building attention relationship

In 'Hardflip,' you have a relationship where the father and son haven't seen each other in 18 years, but they find they're very alike: pigheaded, stubborn, passionate. It's a wonderful story of how you can't get away from how similar you and your children are.

You can make a really good film for under a million dollars, like 'October Baby,' or under a half million, like 'Hardflip.'

A financial shift happened with 'Facing the Giants' and 'Fireproof,' where movies that were faith-based films were profitable. And people in Hollywood - like people in downtown U.S.A. - are out to make money.

'Gut' was my nickname. And I was picked on terribly by many, many kids.

I weighed 245 pounds when I was 16 years old. I had a 44-inch waist. And that was two years before 'Dukes of Hazzard' started.

It seems like people are more likely to tell you you've gotten too thin than to tell you you've gotten too fat.
