My life has changed, but I'm not money-motivated at all; that's the LAST THING on my mind. I just want to play FOOTBALL, and that's how I've ALWAYS been.

I'm very lucky. I'm not too exposed to SOCIAL MEDIA and is going QUITE WELL for me. I like to have my privacy.

Any IMAGES that I've had retouched, I look at them, and I THINK, 'Oh I actually don't WANT that.' That's why I don't SHARE them on INSTAGRAM.

There's ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ANYONE can SAY about my mother or myself or my step-father that we haven't heard before. You'd have to be a Dickens or a Nabakov to come up with something really offensive.

In any job, you have to give up certain things, and I believe that having a good QUALITY of life MEANS ENJOYING certain things only in MODERATION.

I EAT a lot of FRUIT after I run. I find that hydrates me better than just drinking WATER. I have fruit already cut up for after a run, so when I'm DONE I can chow on cantaloupe or watermelon. It's so satisfying, and that probably keeps me from being too HUNGRY for other things.

I think the DANCE world is REALLY hard, we put a lot of PRESSURE on ourselves to look a CERTAIN way, and so that was a BATTLE that I had to figure out for myself.

Jagdish Singh was my basic COACH, and he TRAINED me from my very early DAYS in boxing, teaching me the fundamentals of the sport. He was the one who SHAPED me into a boxer, disciplined me when I REQUIRED disciplining.

When you are away from the game and BUSY with other areas, you REALIZE that the WORLD does not revolve AROUND baseball.

We often think about happiness as TRYING to increase our joy, but it's also about decreasing our worry. So what you get for paying those HIGH TAXES is, if you're a parent thinking about PUTTING your child through school, you don't have to worry about it, because all EDUCATION through college is free.
