Some people are too prideful to go out and reach out to people to help them in that situation because it's just such a dark time.
I think some people are kind of ticked off because I haven't really said much. They don't pay me to go in there and talk to everybody and be friendly to everybody. They paid me to play and they paid me to perform. That's what I've been going in there and doing.
A lot of people expect to see the same type of character that they see on the field off the field, and that throws them for a loop.
A lot of people have to deal with the feeling that their worlds are caving in.
A lot of people think I'm stuck up. Pretty much that I'm arrogant. I only do that when I'm on the field.
It doesnt matter what people say about me, I weather the storm.
But if you look at the big scheme of things, I have never failed, regardless of anything I have had to go through: from Dallas, to the sharpie, to me getting involved with a debate with my coach, a lot of people look to see my fail.
I have done a lot of things off the field but I feel like in my heart I dont really have to publicize what I do for people because it is from my heart.
It doesn't matter what people say about me, whether they're in Philly, or whether they're in San Francisco... all across the world.
I wrote the book not to prove people wrong but just to get the insight on who I am as a person.
The only people that really matter are the people that are in my inner circle.
I'm human; that's what people don't realize.
People have doubted me and criticized me my whole life, and that's why I'm the way I am.
Just because I don't talk to everybody, that's up to me,
