Due to the NFL lockout, I'm excited to be able to follow my childhood dream of playing for a Major League Soccer team.

Stopping me? That's impossible. There's not anything that can really stop me.

I've brought excitement back to the game. I make the game fun.

Tennessee is a very country-type state. Maybe I can practice on some type of country-western dance where they'll know what I'm doing.

My biggest asset is my combination of size and speed.

In high school, when you're a top player, there are ways of getting eligible, ways of getting out of going to class. It made going to the next level, which is college, that much harder.

Everyone has to remember, I've always said that soccer is my number-one sport.

Just because something is legible doesn't mean it communicates...

I was not pleased that Hamas has refused to announce its desire to destroy Israel.

Ghouls weren't smart, but like the Energizer Bunny they kept going and going.

It is such an abundance of idiocy that you lose courage. That you lose hope. I don't want to lose hope. I get through every day. I'm pretty good. I work. I sleep. I sing. I walk.

As always after drinking too much, I felt like my own ghost trying to take it's first solo walk outside the body.

Photographs put time into such a perspective. They humble us and our selfish memories.
