I'm a huge gamer, everything from PC to Xbox to PS2.
I've always been attracted to things that are taboo. I've never been afraid to go to that dark place.
The moment I started treating my social anxiety disorder, I started feeling better.
Human beings aren't supposed to be controlled and told what to do.
I don't feel like my speed or my power or my desire to play this game has diminished at all.
I had a lot of friends in high school and in college, and we had a good time.
I think sometimes when it comes to sports, and especially relationships between players and coaches, that people lose track, lose a sense of reality.
I am an honest, God-fearing man who is intensely dedicated to being the best person I can be on and off the football field.
I had this notion that everyone was staring at me and judging everything about me, from my appearance to the way I talk and everything.
If you replace the word God in the Bible with the word Truth, it reads exactly right.
A team takes on the personality of the head coach.
Sometimes success will get in the way of maturity - at least temporarily.
I don't think people change. I think they definitely mature. But I think the essence of what I am today is the same as when I was five years old. It's just maturity. I've become a healthier, fuller expression of that essence.
In therapy, I see myself in the mirror differently.
