I try not to cancel people. But at some point, we got to stand up and say, hey, right is right, wrong is wrong.
I was getting so down on social media because of the political climate and everything on Twitter was so toxic that I wanted off of it.
My home state of Kentucky has been especially hard hit. In 2015, more than 1,300 Kentuckians died after drug overdoses, many with opioids in their system. That's about four per day.
I realized I'd built up walls and carried grudges for years. I had a lot of animosity, dating back to when I was growing up, toward people who told me that what I was doing datingwise was wrong.
I'm not going to just refrain from giving information I hear just because it might upset some people.
I swim to stay healthy and try to stay as busy as I can.
I'm not a journalist, never pretend to be.
I've been recognized for much of my life but I learned that when I was fatter I am less recognizable so I got fat but then it almost killed me.
Anything that can keep me distracted and from my own brain, it's good.
I never slept very well when I was playing. Looking back, I was always suffering with depression and mental illness-type stuff I didn't understand.
I treat Twitter like I'm talking to my friends.
A social media influencer. I'm not even sure what that means.
I assume people know how to hit the unfollow.
There are many that I will not post. I'm not trying to show a blatant death. I'm trying to show something funny that, every now and then, pushes the envelope a little bit.
I love the University of Kentucky. I bleed blue.
And I hate to bring this up because I'm a 47-year-old man, but I think I was always wanting my dad's approval. We knew he loved us, but he was a different generation.
Well, I tapped into maybe arguably the worst rule in basketball. I wish they would just take it out or amend it greatly. It's a terrible rule, block or charge. I shouldn't be able to stand there and it's a foul. Come on!
So I'm not naturally happy all the time, all upbeat. People that know me will tell you that.
I just think that everybody likes good things. Everybody likes dogs, everybody likes to feel good and believe the best in people.
I had a good career, but I still feel like I should have done more. It wasn't through a lack of trying. I just couldn't stay healthy.
