boys nfl goes-on
Go on and do it then, boy.
bullying people use
But people find it easy to take shots on Twitter, and to use racial slurs and bullying language far worse than what you'll see from me. It's sad and somewhat unbelievable to me that the world is still this way, but it is. I can handle it.
kissing giving people
I don't care about people kissing my ass or telling me how great I am. I don't really give a damn. I read the bad stuff a whole lot more than I read the good stuff. I read that because there are always going to be critics who are going to say how good you aren't.
sometimes
Sometimes you have to be somebody you're not.
call family field football judge man thug worse
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.

I would love for a regular student to have a student-athlete's schedule during the season for just one quarter or one semester and show me how you balance that. Show me how you would schedule your classes when you can't schedule classes from 2-to-6 o'clock on any given day.
bunch gets stuck ups
You don't want to always put a bunch of sugar in you. Because your sugar gets high, it gets stuck in your blood, it gets stuck in your system. It makes you tired. You have the ups and downs.
cooler people
I've always been a square, a nerd. Kind of odd, kind of awkward. I still am to this day. People just think I'm a lot cooler 'cause I play football.
alive racism
There's a lot of racism still alive and still active.
passionate
Giving a true speech, a true, passionate speech, is old-school football.
primarily school stanford
Luckily, I was blessed to go to Stanford and a school that was primarily focused on academics, so it was a blessing.
diploma school
My school almost lost its accreditation. If that had happened, my diploma wouldn't have been worth anything.
people
People don't talk much about my punt returns.
