Once I decided football was the way for me, there was no looking back. Nothing was going to distract me.

I'm probably better than I ever was in my career, as far as the mental aspect of the game.

I have two secret weapons -- my legs, my arms and my brain.

Everybody who knows me knows how I get down.

If it's meant to be for you, it's going to happen.

I mean, I was just one of the ones who got exposed, and because of the position I was in, where I was in my life, it went mainstream. A lot of people got out of it after my situation, not because I went to prison but because it was sad for them to see me go through something that was so pointless, that could have been avoided.

It's always something that's going to be a part of me. It's the reason why I work so hard each and every day. It's the reason I come to work dedicated to become the best that I can be. Nothing's going to come easy in life, and I've learned a lot of lessons, some the hard way, and I think just the things that I've been through have helped mold me into the person I am and what (is in) my future and that's continuing to do things the right way.
