My agent says that I'm a "repeat business guy." If you hire me to come do a movie, I'll be on time, know all my material, be ready to go, have a good attitude. I'm here to work, so I get hired over and over again by the same producers. If you just be a team player on set you can work so much more often.

There are so many things about playing football that seem to me uniquely American. Anybody can succeed, anybody can play, but youve got to work hard to do it.

The taboo for straight actors playing gay is gone... My mother was squirming a bit in the theater because she comes from a different generation.

When they write about real stuff like my custody battle, that's no fun. Some things have leaked out about accusations that have gone back and forth and that's just mean. It's a tactic.

I just live and let live and live my life pretty much according to the Golden Rule. And it turns out well for me.

I love sports. Anytime I can combine sports with a film I'm a happy guy. It's such a natural fit, because sports always seems to be a metaphor for life. Always, always, always.

The thing that drives me more than anything else is being a father.
