artists athletes both considered crowds dressed high hung line rode total weird
I kind of rode this weird line between athlete and artist. It was a little different because most of the athletes were total jocks, and most of the artists dressed in black and were kind of considered a little on the fringe. But I hung out with both crowds in my high school.
everybody funny guy happen laughs naturally needs office touch
Comedy needs to happen naturally and be in touch with the character. When you see that guy in your office that everybody laughs at, he doesn't think he's funny. He's just being him, and that's the joke.
guy identified
I really identified with this guy. This guy is my father, to be honest.
ended films
I could've ended up in action films forever. But the comedy thing has been my forte.

In seven years in the NFL, I played on six different teams.
money
I only have one rule: I don't do anything for money; that's my rule.
believe guy high knew mom number school
A guy I knew in high school got my number from my mom, called me up and was like, 'I can't believe I'm talking to you.' I was like, 'It's me - it's Terry; I went to high school with you! What do you mean?'
football art skills
Art was always my thing. I had an art scholarship before I had a football scholarship. I'm a left-handed, right-brained, painting-drawing guy. That was always my skill.
team cutting player
When I was in the NFL, whenever I got cut from a team I would do paintings of the players, they would pay me $4,000 to $5,000 to do their painting of their family, and that's how I survived until another team picked me up.
men compassion magic
I want to be a man who mixes strengths and compassion. That's my magic elixir, so to speak.
strong compassion
It's great to be strong but strength is nothing without having compassion.
cheesy easy
It ain't easy being cheesy!
games trying publicity
Hollywood is a bit of a publicity game where it's constantly trying to portray things and put up this image and I was not interested in that.
