I'm healthy now. I'm able to just go out and learn the playbook, learn the terminology and just go out there and play football.

There's obviously a lot of new terminology I've got to learn. Now I'm eager to go out and prove myself to show them they weren't wrong.

Human language can only work in broad categories. We create words for things, even though words have a danger of confining things. People will always be bigger than the words we use to describe them, and words will always have the tendency to give us narrow views. But this danger shouldn’t keep us from using words. I am a man; I am American; I am single; I am 5’10”; I am hungry; I am tired: I am happy: I am sad; I am studious; I am foolish; I am fallen; I am sinful; I am hopeful; I am inquisitive; and I am gay. I’m not just any one of these things, but I am all of these things. You could ask me to not categorize myself in terms of my sexual identity because I am not just my sexuality; but if you’re going to do that, you might as well not ask me to categorize myself at all.

I wanted a NBA basketball gym at my house and that's what I worked hard for and I was able to achieve that.

If he stays healthy, we'll be able to get him back on track.

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
