I am not the first player to have sworn on TV and I won't be the last.
I haven't collected memorabilia. I am not a person who lives in the past.
I like the term 'misunderstood.' But I am a bit of a bad boy.
I'm happier about my friends than I am about my work. I still have a long way to go with work. My friends, that's the one thing I'm sure about.
