I have read the Bible many times. But after fasting, and being baptized Orthodox, it's like reading a whole new Bible. You see the depth behind the words so much more clearly.

As a territory, American Samoa has no representation in the U.S. Senate, and we Samoans lost a respected and powerful ally with the passing of Hawaii Sen. Daniel Inouye.

Material things aren't important to me.

My wife is Greek. I was a non-denomination Christian before we got married.

I became a millionaire overnight by signing a piece of paper. I made more money in that one second than my entire family did in their lifetime.

Some days I'm just flipping through the iPod trying to get pumped, some days I don't want to listen to anything and just focus. From game to game from day to day, whatever people do to motivate themselves, they do. I do all kinds of things.

I have developed a Samoan mentality. You have to be a gentleman everywhere but on the field.
