    Sports Quotes
  • "I love to gamble, man — all different kinds of ways, ... As far as wagering on sports, I've got some friends, we make some friendly bets and sit around. As we [say], we're buying a ticket to the game because we're watching every single play. And then you win, and you get to walk around for days and say, 'I knew it.' And if you lose, you get to walk around and say, 'Yeah, but you cheated.' But basically it's friendly wagers, and I go to Vegas here and there."
