When asked for the secret to his success, Steve replied, "God gave me a strong right arm and a weak left brain."
…Steve credited his mother, saying, "Mom worked two jobs so that my brothers and I could spend our afternoons on the playground, rather than behind the counter at Arby's. Without Mom, I'd be making minimum wage pushing a broom somewhere cold, instead of being paid to play a game I love on a warm, sunny ballfield." (or, "…under a cozy, air-conditioned dome.")
When SION asked Steve for the reason for his recent turnaround he responded, with tongue firmly in cheek, "I owe it all to my AA sponsor, and to the nice man who mugged me so I couldn't afford to buy cigarettes."
