I pride myself on respecting my colleagues.
You can criticize me. You can crucify me. You can love me. You can hate me. Just don't make the mistake of calling me inauthentic, because you'd be a damn liar.
You have haters from all walks of life. I could care less who wants me to fail. They inspire me.
Corporate America doesn't give a damn about you. It does not care about your feelings. It wants productivity, and whoever doesn't produce is going to be pushed out, and the way is going to be paved for somebody else to step into your shoes who can do the job.
I can't stand lying. I can't stand liars.
I'm allergic to losing.
I worked as an intern. I worked at a high school. I worked at a college newspaper while I was taking 18 credits while on the basketball team.
I prefer turkey to other potential sandwich meats. Turkey is delicious, and the turkey and cheese sandwich is my personal favorite. It doesn't upset my stomach, and I like to have it once or twice week.

I'm associated with Walt Disney, but dammit, everybody knows that I'm a bottom feeder.
When the presidential debates are on, I'll watch that like it's the Super Bowl. I actually thoroughly enjoy that. I always have.
A season is not made in a week or two any more than a stellar game epitomizes greatness.
If something touches on the world of sports, ESPN has never told me that I cannot discuss a sports-related matter.
I am a native of Hollis, Queens, N.Y.
It's my job as a reporter to not be about the business of making friends or enemies but just be in the tireless pursuit of truth.
Once upon a time, it was hard to decipher what was more difficult to stomach: the foolish, detrimental behavior of a professional athlete or the apologists disguised as their inner circle, eager to excuse the inexcusable. And then there came Allen Iverson, who didn't make it difficult at all.
If you are in the world of business, that means you are in the business of making money.
There is nothing worse than being mediocre at a whole bunch of different things.
When you understand that everything - and I do mean everything - in this nation that we live in, if not this world, is connected to the almighty dollar, it doesn't mean you worship it.
If I'm hated, so what? If I'm loved, so what?
