I think the biggest problem is parents are so concerned with being friends with their kids. You're not their friend. You're their parent.
I didnt wear the pink panties because I didnt want America going crazy with excitement.
One thing about being famous is the people around you, you pay all their bills so they very rarely disagree with you because they want you to pick up the check.
Every team in the Western Conference has flaws.
The most underrated player in NBA history is Dominique Wilkins. Right behind him is Gary Payton. He never has gotten the respect he deserves. If he doesn't spend the rest of his days in Seattle, I hope he goes someplace where he has a chance to win a title.
If all babies are so cute, how the hell do we have so many ugly people in the world?
White folks are not going to come to see a bunch of guys with tattoos, with cornrows. I'm sorry, but anyone who thinks different, they're stupid.
Somebody hits me, I'm going to hit him back. Even if it does look like he hasn't eaten in a while.
I don't get into the gun stuff. Some guys have guns who go hunting. Where do we stop (the gun control) at? I'm not a hunter, but we can't say people can't have guns.
Well, all I can say is that people know I'm not saying anything out of malice.
I'm not a role model.
Anytime a fan touches you, you have the right to beat the hell out of him
Most sportswriters don't know their ass from a hole in the ground.
I don't listen to the refs. I don't listen to anyone who makes less money than I do.
