I'm calling on the Supreme Leader of North Korea, or as I call him, 'Kim,' to do me a solid and cut Kenneth Bae loose.

I hate the fact that he's doing that, but the fact is that, you know what, that's a human being, though. He let his guard down one day to me, a friend.

Is sending the Harlem Globetrotters and Dennis Rodman to the DPRK strange? In a word, yes.

I'm nothing more than a sports slave.

Death has always had a prominent place in my mind. There are times when I think somebody might kill me.

When a high-profile personality lives like I do, everybody thinks that person is fated to die young.

There is so much hypocrisy in sports.
