00:00I mean, but sooner or later, there has to be like a commitment to a team, I think, from a
00:04player.
00:04And I think for you, you played your entire career with the New York Yankees.
00:08Could you ever imagine pitching for another team?
00:11No, I never did. I never imagined that. I didn't want to imagine that either.
00:15You know, yes, I got offers, you know, I mean, but for me, everything wasn't about money.
00:20It was about loyalty. It was about something that my family and I was better for us
00:28and for the New York Yankees, obviously, and for the fans.
00:32You know, I mean, I don't want to imagine that after 10 years wearing the pinstripes
00:39and then all of a sudden I'm going to Boston.
00:42You know, I mean, I better move from New York.
00:46Well, Johnny Damon did that, by the way.
00:47Johnny Damon is Johnny Damon, you know.
00:52He's not Mo Rivera.
00:53Exactly.
00:56I mean, I think, guys, I think loyalty is, we lose that part of the game.
01:03Who is, what team gave you the biggest offer that you had to think about?
01:08Come on, tell us.
01:10It was the Boston Rex.
01:12Of course, of course.
01:14Good for you, Mo. You stayed here. That's what I'm talking about.
