My father is my idol, so I always did everything like him. He used to work two jobs and still come home happy every night.

I never think that there's something I can't do, whether it's beating my opponent one on one or practicing another hour because something about my game is just not right.

The looks, the stares, the giggles . . . I wanted to show everybody that I could do better and also that I could read.

I wouldn't do the 'Magic Hour' again, but I would do TV again. The 'Magic Hour' is not me. Anything I would do, I would have to be me. That is how it would work.

WE all have to play as a team to make the world a better place

I only know how to play two ways: reckless and abandon.

Any guy who can maintain a positive attitude without much playing time certainly earns my respect.
