You want to be wanted, and you want people to rely on you.
apart business david fixing manchester realize united
I think there's a lot of things that need fixing at Manchester United apart from David Moyes, but in this business, you also realize the head coach is always going to be the first to go, unfortunately.
developed exactly form literally people symptom talked worst
When I was 11, I developed a new symptom - the worst one yet: I had to touch people before I talked to them. When I say 'had to,' that's exactly what I mean: if I didn't touch them first, I literally couldn't form the words.
feels great
When you're not needed somewhere, it never feels great.
anyone ball becomes bothered competition cup involved matter versus
When there's a cup involved it becomes that much more important. For us, we're not bothered what anyone says. Put a ball out there, put 11 versus 11, and we want to win. It doesn't matter what the competition is.
carve ok
There is no privacy in our culture anymore, so I have to try and carve that out for myself, but I'm OK with it.
anyone ask autographs eating meal sign taught
I don't sign autographs when I'm out for a meal or out with my kids. I think that's rude and disrespectful. I would never ask anyone for an autograph while they were eating dinner; that's what I was taught by my parents.
I enjoy being a role model for kids.
expecting faster finals last performance previous seconds state terrific time
He was terrific at state last year. His time in the finals was about 3 seconds faster than his previous best. I'm really expecting a lot this year; he set me up for that with his performance last year.
afternoon love
I'm a gym rat; I love my hour-long afternoon sessions with my trainer.
grew idol jordan michael sports
I grew up a Michael Jordan fan; that was my first idol. But my true sports idol was Deion Sanders: he was the person I always wanted to be. I wanted to play two sports professionally, which would never happen, but to me, that was every kid's dream.
grew
I grew up in a generation when there was no soccer on TV.
dust kids time
I don't get a lot of time with my children. My time is precious, and time with my two kids is like gold dust to me. I can't get that time back.
glorified
I don't feel the need to be seen, to be glorified in any way.
