In eighth grade, I was actually better in football. I played running back, wide receiver, and safety - just like Allen Iverson.
I was a ball guy. I played basketball, baseball, football. I excelled in football the most. I played running back, wide receiver, safety, kick returner, punt returner.
If I was going to play offense, I'd love to play running back. In high school I played quarterback and wide receiver, but I wouldn't mind running over some folks.
In ninth grade, I played wide receiver.
I played wide receiver in high school; then I went to college at Ball State and played safety.
It was fun, having speed and being able to jump. Especially playing football. I played wide receiver and defensive back.
You can't be Allen Iverson on a football team. And even Iverson got run out of Philadelphia when he was still a spectacular talent because the Sixers got tired of the headache and his bad attitude.
My seventh-grade year, I played football. I was, like, 15 pounds overweight, so I had to lose a ton of weight. They put me at left tackle; they put me on the defensive line. I absolutely hated football. I didn't want to play again. Eighth grade year, I didn't play.
A wide receiver like me wouldn't have won. The quarterback - or even the running back - always wins.
There's nothing that sells good about Allen Iverson if it's something positive about Allen Iverson.
Recording with Meek Mill for me was like when Allen Iverson played with Michael Jordan for the first time.
A negative Allen Iverson story is the greatest Allen Iverson story, for some reason.
For me it's just amazing that I grew up watching Tim Duncan and KG and Kobe and Paul Pierce, Allen Iverson and all those guys and now it's like, 'Man, I can't believe they actually got old.' It's like they actually walked away. It's crazy to think about, but the game has to keep moving.
It's a little crazy. Last year, I was in seventh grade, and we were the babies at the school - 'cause my middle school's eighth grade and seventh grade - and now I'm eighth grade, and all these new students have come in, and they're all like, 'Oh my gosh! Darci Lynne!'
I played football in eighth grade, and even though I had a passion for it, it turned out I'm no good at playing it.
If I wasn't boxing I'd be a wide receiver or a running back for the Giants.
I think for me, or for anyone who plays the quarterback position, it's almost an unspoken word when you think about leadership. Some guys can be a leader and be a running back or a lineman, or wide receiver, strong safety, or linebacker. But when you speak of quarterbacks, it's automatically a default that you're supposed to be a leader.
