A lot of athletes want to have a break, but they don't do it.
I think in general, people look at all Olympic athletes, look at all superstar athletes, and they say, "Okay, this guy doesn't have any insecurities." They're almost like these icons who - I don't know how to say it, but like they can't make mistakes. But the reality is, and I'll tell you this firsthand, a lot of great athletes have a lot of insecurities, and they have a really hard time dealing with a lot of so-called losing or however you want to classify it.
I know a lot of athletes, they want to play until their 45 or 50 or whatever, some athletes claim, but count me out on that.
There is only a relationship between music and sports because all athletes want to be rappers and all rappers want to be athletes.
There are a lot of young great athletes out there; they're much better athletes than what we were. They're bigger, faster, stronger, unfortunately, there're fewer places to go.
Everybody used to say that baseball players can't dress and athletes can't dress. You know, a lot of athletes now are trying to prove everybody wrong, though there are some athletes that try too hard and try to do over-the-top things. But me, I try to be simple and just make whatever I'm wearing look good.
Anything you can do to help someone, I just think it's so important because there's a lot of kids that look up athletes of all size and shapes in a lot of different fields, not necessarily in the basketball field. They get involved emotionally with those people because there's something about certain athletes that people rally around.
One of my favorite topics to read about my whole life has just been famous athletes, and a lot of those have been combat athletes.
It's not enough to just test athletes. The athletes themselves need to fight for their right to compete against clean athletes.
The thing that concerns me the most is when I hear that people are making a lot of money a lot of ways except for the athletes, whether it's on the bowl games, the TV contracts, the conferences, the schools, the coaches, however you want to say it.
A lot of athletes are stuck on themselves and don't want to socialize and that kind of thing. When I see that, I hate it.
I think there are a lot of people who say they want to be professional athletes, say they want to make millions of dollars, but don't necessarily like doing the hard work that goes into it.
Athletes aren't allowed to have an opinion. It's tough. Athletes are evolving right in front of our eyes. You see athletes who are politicians, etc., and still, we're told to shut up and dribble.
I want to be the defensive player to break the MVP barrier. I want to break barriers. I want to do things when people tell me I can't.
I love the communication aspect with my athletes. I like the one on one time with my athletes but really its about making them better athletes and finding out what makes them tick.
I think pro-athletes should be forced to use steroids. I think we as fans deserve the greatest athletes science can create! Lets go! Anything that will make you run faster, jump higher! I have High-Definition TV! I want my athletes like my video games! Lets go! I could care less if you die at 40. You hate life after sports anyways. I'm doing you a favor.
There is a stigma around athletes, and I think the more that us as humans can do to break those, the better.
