I started out wanting to coach football.

I worked for the recreation and parks department for a year.

And about in the late '80s, I got kind of burned out a little bit.

I thought I'd gone to heaven, because I grew up watching Roy and Gene Autry

Even when I was young, playing college football, and I injured my knee, I bounced right back.

I'm from Middlesboro, Ky., a little town on the Tennessee and Virginia border.

Clint Eastwood's a good friend, too - he and I used to play in softball games together.
