Louie and Seabiscuit were both Californians and both on the sports pages in the 1930s. I was fascinated. When I learned about his World War II experiences, I thought, 'If this guy is still alive, I want to meet him.'
I look at athletes in all sports and try to picture what kind of football player they'd be, what position they'd play and so on.
Many sports, not just football, have kind of the macho meathead mentality where innovation is almost frowned upon.
But sports carried me away from being in a gang, or being associated with drugs. Sports was my way out.
When did I know I had talent? I think it started when I first started playing sports, organized sports.
I did everything when I started. In Miami I did news, I did weather, I did sports, I did disk-jockeying. And I did a sports talk show every week - every Saturday night.

When I got into the sport I was so fat that my manager said he should send me to boot camp to lose the weight!
I hate sport. I like girlie things.
I know, in India, specially in Bollywood and the sports fraternity, there is a lot of negative media attention on prominent public figures.
Funding for sports (and the arts) are often the first things facing the chop in difficult times.
The most important thing you learn as a sports photographer is anticipation - not where the action is taking place, but where it's going to take place. Not where the subject is now, but where they're going to be.
I ran track, and basically played every sport.
Well, my favorite sport as a kid was clearly baseball.
