Many forms sizes and colors I think there are heroes in sports in life... It would be cliche to say my dad my granddad. I think I'm a fan of people who were brave my aunt my grandmother those are my heroes.
My dad was a sports writer when I was younger and then he became just a general columnist. But I grew up with him literally getting into brawls with football coaches.
My dad told us up front 'Guys if you want to play sports go ahead but it's your decision.'
I wanted to perform well for my mom and dad because in high school I didn't have a job. My brothers they worked at Pizza Hut or places like that but sports that was my way of giving back.
My sister is totally my dad's daughter because she loves sports.
I sort of always had an inkling towards some kind of an art form. I grew up in a very small town and I just figure-skated. My dad played hockey and I was surrounded by sports but it wasn't quite doing it for me. I wasn't totally fulfilled and I did a lot of skating.
One afternoon when I was 9 my dad told me I'd be skipping school the next day. Then we drove 12 hours from Melbourne to Sydney for the Centenary Test a once-in-a-lifetime commemorative cricket match. It was great fun - especially for a kid who was a massive sports fan.
Don't force your kids into sports. I never was. To this day my dad has never asked me to go play golf. I ask him. It's the child's desire to play that matters not the parent's desire to have the child play. Fun. Keep it fun.
I've told Billy if I ever caught him cheating I wouldn't kill him because I love his children and they need a dad. But I would beat him up. I know where all of his sports injuries are.
The presidents of colleges have to have some courage to step forward. You can't limit alcohol in college sports you have to get rid of it.
In the inhalation and exhalation there is an energy and a lively divine spirit since He through his spirit supports the breath of life giving courage to the people who are in the earth and spirit to those who walk on it.
My band is so dedicated everybody works very hard. The No. 1 priority is the show and it's pretty cool because we all pull together and it's fun. It's like being on a sports team or something.
What drives me now is the fact that I feel like I still have so many tricks that I want to learn and so many things that I can still do. And so many cool things outside of sports that I have been doing.
When I grew up we had gym at school two or three dance classes after school ice skating lessons and all sorts of sports at our finger tips. We weren't glued to computers because they didn't exist so being active was all we knew.
News reports don't change the world. Only facts change it and those have already happened when we get the news.
Since my induction into the Sports Hall of Fame I have wanted to have my No. 3 Chevy on exhibit for sports fans to see. I hope others will enjoy the car as much as I have.
It's funny I'm in some ways hopelessly masculine but I don't fish I don't hunt I'm not that into sports. I can't fix a car. I think it's my point of view and the way I see the world.
