I'm not a troublemaker. People say, 'You got into a lot of incidents.' Yeah, but it was on the basketball floor.
I enjoy watching competitive people. You watch 'em come and you watch 'em go, and how they try to be the best. How they handle when they're not. How they handle when they are. How they get along together on the court.
People are too hung up on winning. I can get off on a really good helmet throw.
I'm the type of player that doesn't like to play on full stomach.
Football doesn't build character, it reveals character.
I played defense, so I don't like when guys celebrate with dances and stuff.
I hope young athletes can imitate my good side only, not the bad side.
Football is such a traditionalist sport. Whatever happened in the past is usually going to continue. But the bullying has no place in any sport. That's the bottom line.
Top-flight football players are a strange bunch.
Men like a ref decision because they just want to get back to the game.
I always try to keep a pretty conservative demeanor on the court.
I might have a different understanding of the term 'football star.' If I shoot a few balls after training, it's perfectly normal that I collect them afterwards.
