You never know who will win and I think that is the great thing about this league (as a player) because it gives you a lot of hope that this could be your year.
I want to be the top scorer of the league, take Everton back to the Champions League, and reach the Brazilian national team.
Athletics is a luxury.
When you go through a tournament of seven games, there are peaks and valleys. You kind of ride the players that are hot.
When I don't enjoy it anymore, I'll stop. But I think as long as people want me to be where the action is, I'll be there. I just love to play tennis.
The Tour de France is a wicked sport in the way that it's not just man against man or woman against woman; it's not flesh against flesh. It's flesh against machine.
I had been on the junior Olympic team in high school for trampoline; I could do twenty-six back flips in a row.
Perhaps... I mean there are people who defend that it as an art. I don't. I like it but it's not an art form as far as I'm concerned, and yet it's a similar thing, once you can't land those jumps, you're disqualified - that precludes it from ever becoming a serious art form.
Me personally, I can take getting beat, if it's about basketball. But when it gets to the point where you're being personal, and being disrespectful as a man to another man, that's when I have a problem.
If you are not 100 per cent, Virender Sehwag or Chris Cairns will destroy you.
It's best to keep a strategic fight and try to win because the level of the sport is so high.
I've been involved in sport right through my life.
I was always hugely into sport before I started boxing. I played rugby, football, cricket, athletics, swimming.
I was a gymnast for 13 years, so I was heavy into sports.
When I'm playing in a close game, I'm out on the floor only trying to help the team win.
In tournament cricket, with a new opponent each game, I think you actually need to play to your own strengths more.
You should play all the slams you physically can.
I kind of had to figure stuff out on my own and get myself snowboarding competitively again. I went through all types of different legs to try to learn which were going to work for me. Luckily, I was able to figure it out.
You've got to be fit to box. In football, if you need a breather, your team-mate can take over. There's no one in the ring to help out.
I'm not a troublemaker. People say, 'You got into a lot of incidents.' Yeah, but it was on the basketball floor.
One thing I get from competitive sports is that I am fiercely ambitious.
Everybody in the Olympics is paid. Lindsay Vonn is going to make a million dollars whether she skis or not.
I have never once dribbled the whole field and scored a goal by myself.
I missed being considered an athlete and having that competitive drive, and missed having something to work for every day. I'd taken two and a half years away from the sport and was out of shape. I wanted to get back to where I was in 2008.
You talk about demand, and these are big-name NBA players fighting for spots to be in the BIG3. So you gotta bring your game to make a squad, and that's what Ice Cube's envisioned when he started the BIG3.
