“Outside of the Yankees, who could take on such a gamble? You don't know if he'll ever be Sammy Sosa again. He just hasn't looked like the same player, especially this year.”
Sammy Sosa
“I am not the reincarnation of Sammy Davis Jr.”
Nancy Cartwright
“Sammy and I have been really close since 1986, when he was 16 years old. He didn't make the Rookie League team so I took him to extended spring. This kid ... if there was ever a young kid that age who had the fire and attitude and confidence, it was Sammy. He always worked hard and he always believed he was going to be a big-league player. That's why he was able to do the things he did in baseball. He's a good man, and I hate to see him retire.”
Rudy Jaramillo
“`That's rather a sudden pull up, ain't it, Sammy?' inquired Mr Weller. `Not a bit on it,' said Sam; `she'll vish there wos more, and that's the great art o' letter writin'.'”
Charles Dickens
“He looks like Sammy Davis Jr. -- but he's a skeleton,”
Danny Elfman
“I know Sammy, so I was playing with him a little bit. But when you see that situation like that (one-on-one coverage by a backup cornerback), that just tells you that obviously they must really think that I can't play football. You're making a big mistake in that coverage.”
Keyshawn Johnson
“What Sammy Sosa has done for the Dominican Republic, that's what I think I can do for Haiti.”
Wyclef Jean
