I almost fought back a lot of tears, honestly. It was great, a wonderful feeling. The last time I'd been in this building with a crowd was when I played.

I always wanted to be in those moments where you could have an opportunity to win a game with a play or a shot, or have a part in it, ... I've been very fortunate to have a lot of those moments.

Right now I can't play. I'm not really healthy. It's not really to the point where it's healed. It's been a long time that I've been playing injured and I've been doing a lot of damage to my knees for a long time.
everybody laughing people retirement
What I will say is the retirement thing is something I've been laughing at, you should be laughing at, everybody should be laughing at, ... It is kind of frustrating. As much as I've communicated to everyone that I'm not going to retire, it's like people still don't know. I'm not going to retire. I'm still going to play.
integrity real father
The more consistent a father can be or a mentor can be in the person's life and teach them principles of real solid manhood, character, integrity and leadership, the more consistent you can be in the person's life and teach them those things at a younger age, and then the better off they'll be.

brown chance chances coach given hour miles past per plan possibly reason reflect training tried ultimate willing
Training is different than going 100 miles per hour with a coach Brown team, ... That's the ultimate test. I tried it. The reason I didn't give it another chance was because I said, 'I've given it so many chances and tried everything I possibly could.' I had to really reflect and get past what you want, your desire, what you're willing to go through and say, 'What is really the right plan for me right now?'
