I mean, it's understandable that it's the first time he can't go out there. He can't do anything about it. But he's definitely a big influence in my life.
There's so many distractions. The hardest time is going to sleep and the couple of hours before you play - waiting and waiting.
The time in between games is the hardest time for me because there's so many distractions. It's just really hard to go to sleep because you're so excited and all you're thinking about is playing in the game.

His girlfriend is like 30 years old. He goes to clubs. The last time I was out with him, I couldn't keep up.
I'm like, 'Dude, chill out. Just drink a couple beers, watch the game. Just let me play.' He stresses me out.

Art is interesting because there can be so many different perspectives in a piece of art. The way I see it may be completely different than the way somebody else sees it. It's interesting to hear what somebody sees in a piece of art compared to somebody else. It could be completely different, and that's interesting to me.
They were talking lots of trash. They were just talking crazy to me, like, 'You're so ugly.' Man, that was cold. I mean, it hurts when you have so many beautiful girls out there just telling you how ugly you are and stuff.
We're going shine all day, all night. Please don't be mad at us if we don't do a little homework the next couple of weeks.
