I definitely had a gang influence with friends and family growing up in South Central, and people might think that Beverly Hills definitely shielded me from some problems. But in actuality, it only opened up a whole new can of worms.

Just growing up on 'Friday Night Lights,' other dramas, that kind of shaped my childhood. The fact that I can have one talking about my life - it's insane.

I don't want this to be, 'Hey, you're the guy who had that one show. What are you doing now?' I want it to be a career.

I pride myself on that, even though I'm kind of under the radar, when I step on the field, I try to do an admirable job.

We've got to have a radical rethink of the way the sport is funded to help the young players develop.

Motor sport is very expensive. It's unfortunate, because you see so much talent that never makes it to the top due to the lack of financial support.

I made Edgar Davids vice-captain. Nothing to do with colour, just because he was playing excellently and because he lives like an athlete.

What drew me towards team sport were the camaraderie and friendship. The chance to celebrate victory and success with a group of other people is something I have enjoyed doing.
