“People often forget that the athletes they see on TV – loved by many, hated by some – are real parents, real friends, real brothers, real children, real human beings. That being said, when I participate in tournaments across the country with a team of celebrities, I gave myself the time, the energy, the knowledge of these guys who came to our show for 11 years and it’s not what people want to see or hear.
“People want to see me arguing with another young man and see what ‘hurts my feelings.’ But the reality is that I have a positive impact on the lives of boys. Don’t make any mistakes about it, I allow the boys to find their “way out” using their football talents to take them to the next level and, in many cases, to get out of the hood. “
