If You're A Manager You Can't Get

Now Here I Am Almost 52 Years Old, It's Really Easy. I'm Way More At Peace. But When You're A Competitor, And You're As Intent On Becoming The Best In The World As I Was, It Comes With Consequences.

I Was Kind Of A Volatile Personality, Very Intense. Because Of That, I Drew Some Criticism And People Would Say Things About Me, And My Parents Had Tried To Defend Me. I Would Just Tell Them Don't Worry About It. Our Day Will Come.

Schools Used To Fund-raise For Luxuries, Like A Trip To The Water Slides. Now, We Fund-raise For Things We Have To Have.

There Was A Perception Of Me, And I Earned It Because I Was Really Intense, Really Gruff. I Treated Certain People Poorly At Times. It Was Because Of Who I Was. It Was Almost My Strength. I Came In All Business. I Tried To Find Ways To Fit In With That Demeanor, But It's Not Easy.

I Got To Experience A World Championship With Some Great Teammates.
