As a kid growing up, I was never like, 'I want to go to the Olympics,' so having to pass on 2012 because I was too young didn't bother me at all.

Growing up, it was kind of a struggle being small, since everyone would make fun of you - except for when it came to hide and seek: that's the only advantage I ever had!

I never thought about competing in the Olympic Games when I was growing up.

There are goals that I have, and then I dream of it, and then I make it a reality. If I could crawl out of my skin and see it, it would be really amazing.

When you're around a sport awhile and sort of get to know everybody, you start to appreciate people more instead of just seeing a number and a sponsor and a competitor.

I know I used to play basketball every day, whether it was for fun with my older brother or if it was organized basketball on teams.

Even the biggest bands - and I hate to break the magic - but even the band that sold out 90,000 tickets in your football stadium, they might come back two years later and do an arena. It still feels huge, but there's a difference - there's a big difference. And there's a big difference playing a 30,000-seat stadium and a 90,000.

I know a few different women who really enjoy fantasy football, but if it doesn't work out for them in a given season, it's not like they're going to go into a three-month funk. Whereas I know a lot of guys, myself included, who, if they have a bad season or if they lose a couple tough games, are just crushed.
