I think if you show a player an avenue to make a difference, he's going to bring that same intensity he brings on the field in his community.
When I talk about the early years in Oakland, I don't want to take anything away from who that player was, because that player was still a heck of a player, that player was just young. I played off the field the same way that I played on the field.
Ganguly is a very good leader. His return to the field brings a spring in the steps of the Indians. He is a great player.
To those who would call me a thug or worse because I show passion on a football field - don't judge a person's character by what they do between the lines. Judge a man by what he does off the field, what he does for his community, what he does for his family.
Shot me twice. I want my name, or I'm going to start charging you a fee every time I field something for you. And it's going to be expensive. I'm Park Place. Bud-dy." His red, goat-slitted eyes squinted at me from over his smoked glasses. "You're more like Oriental Avenue right now, dove. What are you on?
I brought killer intensity to my workouts… It’s not enough to just show up and do the workout. You have to bring something to it… What was your intention? If you are not believing with all fervour and relentlessness in what it is you want to do, no one is going to do that for you.
I think my experience is going to make a difference, but I also think that my speed and power are going to make a bigger difference.
I will suggest that the great aim of our education is to bring out of the child who comes into our hands every faculty that he brings with him, and then to try to win that child to turn all his abilities, his powers, his capacities, to the helping and serving of the community which is a part.
The mentor thing is overblown to me. I'm going to coach the player. I'm not going to have another player coach the player. They can be friends but when it comes to what I want him to do on the football field, that's my call, not another player's call.
I think there will be times where I need to be more serious, and I'll show that. I'll show an intensity that I think a lot of people can't really show or portray.
A lot of people, when a guy scores a lot of goals, think, 'He's a great player', because a goal is very important, but a great player is a player who can do everything on the field. He can do assists, encourage his colleagues, give them confidence to go forward. It is someone who, when a team does not do well, becomes one of the leaders.
If you have the money and you find the one player who can make you win and make the difference, no matter how expensive he is, you should do it. But there are not many players in the world who will make a real difference.
Music can bring about different vibes on the field, off the field, urban life, going to church, leaving church. Everything the world may bring, there's a song for it to put you in the right frame of mind.
Even if the person doesn't know what the internet can do, we can bring it to them and show how it can make a difference in their lives.
A player cannot rely only on his name to make a difference but also has to work hard and make things happen on the pitch.
It's hard to propose a $100 laptop for a world community of kids and then not say in the same breath that you're going to depend on the community to make software for it.
All an agent is going to do is buy things for a player, damage his eligibility, and make the player dependent on them.
