Every time I feel mad or something, I run somewhere. It gets my frustrations away. I run and run and run.

I remember quotes in the paper, 'Here comes the man that New York loves to hate.' Man? None of you have probably ever eaten steak with me or rice and beans with me to understand what the man is about. You might say the player, the competitor, but the man? You guys have abused my name. You guys have said so many things, have written so many things.

I do miss competing, being out there - the atmosphere, I do miss it.

If you want to follow some good steps, it would Proverbs, all over.

Georgie Porgie, he might buy the whole league, but he doesn't have enough money to buy fear to put in my heart.
