If I was doing something for the money, I'd be quite miserable.

I look very foolish. To a lot of people I look foolish in what I'm doing and I understand that. The only thing that matters is how I feel and if I let how they feel affect me it'll change how I feel.

I'm closer to being happy. I'm doing things that make me happy. In football I loved to practice and I loved to play, but I hated to be in meetings, hated to talk to the media, hated to have cameras in my face, hated to sign autographs. I hated to do all those things.

There is no need to smear my name or to defame my character for the sake of news.

If you identify yourself as a great football player, anytime anyone challenges that, you're going to have some kind of problem.

I'm a huge gamer, everything from PC to Xbox to PS2.

I definitely have come out of my shell a lot more. When you question who you are, you can't be proud of who you are. Now that I'm trying to peel off those layers and really understand who I am, I don't have anything to be shy about.
