But I was so wrapped up in sports growing up as a kid that I think I was going to grow to be a pro ball player. But I found out real quick that was not going to happen.
I never really hated any particular sport but out of all the sports I used to prefer the team games to running and sprinting and those types of things.
I've always kind of had an interest in the drums but nothing else. The drums are the only thing I feel I would be good at because I'm a very physical person. I've always played sports and stuff. Drums would give me something to do.
I've always been really active. I grew up playing sports so I'm always shooting hoops or throwing the football with my friends. I'm super-active in that sense.
I think having a vision can make someone an influential man. I'm not talking about acting or anything like that I'm talking about people I admire whether it's a writer or a musician or a sports figure or a politician whatever.
I know my strengths. Painfully aware of the weaknesses. There's many. I love sports. So working towards a common goal that's exciting to me.
The last few years I became a lot more into sports. Growing up the sports I liked were independent sports like skateboarding. I was really into skateboarding and not necessarily team televised sports.
Louie and Seabiscuit were both Californians and both on the sports pages in the 1930s. I was fascinated. When I learned about his World War II experiences I thought 'If this guy is still alive I want to meet him.'
When you're a child no matter if you're doing show business or sports or school or anything you just want to make the adults happy.
I think it is that parents just don't kick their kids out the door as much as they used to. I think the demise of sandlot sports has had a lot to do with it.
