My mother's the most special person in my life ... I consider her my MVP: Most Valuable Parent.

Leadership is a role you have to earn in order to be effective.

I kept thinking my father would come back, But he never did.

I love the challenge of the game. I love the work. My goal right now is to have a season next year that will make people forget about this one. I'll use things like this for motivation. I'm pumped. I'm hungry.

I want to be the best, and the best work. You have to earn what you get, and you have to work to keep it.

Back then it was a different culture. It was very loose. I was young. I was stupid.

I don't expect people to feel sorry for me. My teammates get more upset about the criticism and booing than I do.
