Joe Thomas says he cried after playing a perfect game in a 30 point loss to Tom Brady and realized he had spent 10 years fooling himself into believing the Browns were a Super Bowl team before each season “The way I entered every season was like, if I need to get the most out of myself, I’ve got to convince myself this is a Super Bowl roster. That’s the mentality I have to have when I’m training, when I’m practicing, when I’m going through film study. And so you trick yourself every year, but after a while, you’re not that dumb anymore” “Going into year 10, we had traded away the first overall pick. We were trading guys away, saving capital for the future. The writing was on the wall that we were in a pretty significant rebuild. I kind of knew at that time, even though I was still trying to trick myself, in the back of your head you know you’re not going to be any good” “Then, about midway through that 10th season, we were playing the Patriots. Tom Brady comes to town, and I fucking hated Tom Brady, as everybody did in the league. I hated the Patriots. I just wanted to smash him so bad. We lost like 30 to 0. And I remember sitting in the car after the game, and I was just crying. I had ice on both elbows and knees. I was in pain, my wife was driving and I was just looking out the window. It was that moment when I realized I’d been kind of fooling myself for a while, and we were not going to win no matter what I did” “She finally said, ‘Are you okay? Did you have a bad game?’ Then the tears really came because I said, ‘I played a perfect game, and we lost by 30.’ It really sunk in at that moment that you don’t control the situation anymore. That feeling of loss of control is really hard. No matter what situation you’re in in life, it just feels like everything I’m working for, I have no control over the outcome. That’s a bad feeling” “I ended up meeting with the team psychologist and talking to somebody about it because it had been almost 10 years built up to that moment when you come to the realization that I’m kind of fooling myself. We’re not that team and we really don’t have a chance. And I don’t impact this game the way I’d hoped”

Shaquille O’Neal says the solution to making the WNBA more exciting is to lower the rim so players can dunk “In men’s beach volleyball and women’s beach volleyball, the net is lowered just a little bit” “The only thing missing from the WNBA to the NBA game is the dunk. I’m not saying lower it to 9 feet or 8 feet… so they can dunk” “I think if they did that, it would make the game more exciting. They got the handles, they got the shooters, they got the showmanship, they just don’t have the dunk. Just imagine if you lower the rim just a little bit”

Marshawn Lynch says he embraced Seattle right away as bars welcomed him with free food and drinks, compared to Buffalo bars where he saw Confederate flags “It was probably when I first got out there. I get traded and they like, ‘Hey, you got to go.’ I'm thinking it's just like hella white people. I didn't really know that they really had movement and action” “But when I first got there I go to the bar and, you know, ‘Hey, you the guy we just traded for. Don't worry about it. This on us.’ I'm like, ‘Damn, this different,’ because where I come from in New York, when I get there, they still got Confederate flags in some of the bars that I was going to” “Seattle, once I got traded there, it was like it was love off the rip”

Kevin Love says LeBron James refuses to use roaming data in Toronto and waits until he can connect to Wi-Fi “I’ve seen it a million times in Toronto. They talk about wealth and all that. It’s the things you don’t see. For him, if we’re in Toronto, that drive from the airport and going through customs to then getting to our hotel, there’s no data used at all” “He’s waiting for the Wi-Fi all the time. Then that drive from the hotel to the arena, Air Canada, also waits to get to the arena Wi-Fi” “What’s the finance great saying. ‘A small leak can sink a great ship.’ I can appreciate it. It’s not like I’m mad at him. But c’mon bro. It’s just roaming”

Lil Wayne says he became a father at 14 because his mom was lonely after his father died “I was 14. My mom asked for my kid. My dad had just got murdered that year, the same year I blew up” I was a local rapper forever. A tour, back then, would be me going on weekend shows and coming back home for the week and going to school. We got the Universal deal, and I was like, ‘We have a tour coming up.’ When I went on that tour, we was on the road for like six months” “When I came home, she was like, ‘Is this what you're about to be doing? Is this what I should be expecting? You were gone for too long. I'm lonely. My husband's gone’” “She was like, ‘Listen, let's have a sit down. Me, you, and Toya.’ And so we had the sit down”

Jaylen Brown says he used the NBA Players Association instead of hiring an agent for the NBA Draft because they're paid to help players “When I entered the draft, I didn't have an agent. I'm probably the highest picked selected ever that didn't enter with an agent. When I was evaluating, I went through the whole process and sat with a bunch of people, and what they was offering I ain't really need. It was kind of already slotted, so I leaned on the union a lot more” “A lot of the agents came and was like, ‘Yeah, we'll move you to L.A. We'll get you a trainer, put some money in your pocket,’ and I was like, ‘For what? Do I gotta give the money back?’ They was like, ‘Nah, but standard agent fee is 4%.’ I'm starting to do the math, and a house, car, and all that, whatever he was offering, is a lot less than what 4% would have been” “Long story short, the math wasn't mathing for me. I ended up being the third pick. I think because I came in like that, a lot of people, I think it was the agents, they tried to slander my name a little bit, put it in the media that he's too this, he's too that. Ended up backfiring. It all worked out in the end” “With the union, we pay dues. All the players in the NBA pay dues. We all pay like $10,000 out of our salary that goes to hiring lawyers, hiring staff, CEO, everything that you need to lead a company that works for us. So all of that is our resources that we all pay for, that we agree to. Once I learned that, I just started using it” “I'm talking about you can get private investigations done. They give referrals for financial advisors. All type of stuff. Foundation wise, health insurance, whatever you need. They have a liaison that's paid to make sure that you get it done. So I put it on their desk like, ‘I need you to get this done.’ And they do because that's their job”

Ludacris says Justin Timberlake told him to “shut the fuck up” backstage after he celebrated winning the Grammy for Best Rap Album for Release Therapy “Every time I went to the Grammys, I’m in the category with Eminem and Ja Rule, and these motherfuckers were killing this shit. Jay-Z, DMX, huge artists. But when it comes to these motherfuckers, I’m losing every fucking award” “I come around and finally, I make this album, Release Therapy. I’m making this fucking album, and I’m going to win Best Rap Album for this shit. I’m specifically going in, writing this shit, making it the way it needs to be. And when they called my fucking name, that did it for me. It was over a decade of loss, and then finally getting that recognition” “Because I was so passionate after I got that award, I went backstage. At this time they had all the artists separated by curtains. So motherfuckers weren’t in specific rooms. I get back and I’m like, ‘Yeah, fuck yeah, I made it. I did it. I won. I literally set out to make this album to get a Grammy, and I got it’” “All of a sudden, I hear this voice from the other room, on the other side of the curtain. The motherfucker is like, ‘Shut the fuck up, man. Some of us didn’t win any goddamn Grammys today.’ I’m like, ‘Who the fuck is that?’ I pull the curtain back. This dude Justin Timberlake is on the other side. That dude said, ‘Shut the fuck up. Some of us didn’t win any goddamn Grammys this year.’ That motherfucker Justin is gangster, bro”

They still just bringing the meal to you” “I would say tipping culture is definitely out of control. But I’m a bad tipper, I ain’t going to lie”

We were supposed to throw the ball for 500 yards or some shit like that. Russ didn't have the game that he wanted. After the game, I did pretty good, 2 tugs, 150 rushing, another 50 receiving” “I reached out to our player personnel dude and was like, ‘Hey man, let me get Russ' number.

Rob Gronkowski says he lived off $50,000 as an NFL rookie because he understood the NFL meant "Not For Long" "My agent gave me a $50,000 advance for what's going to come in the marketing world for myself.

And then from there on out, I really didn't need any other money" "I was getting free meals at the facility. I just kind of needed gas money. You go out, the drinks are free or you pay for one, you get 10 free when you're when you're on the Patriots up in the Boston area" "So I wasn't really spending much money at all, especially when it got to the season. I mean, you're inside that building and everything's handed to you on a daily basis from breakfast all the way to dinner" "I just lived off my marketing dollars. I was living a low-level life.

Not having any lavish purchases, the first couple years in the league and just banking away what I was making because I truly understood that the NFL stands for not for long"

JJ Redick says Michael Jordan and California are the reason NBA players and other athletes pay the jock tax “I believe Michael Jordan was essentially the reason that athletes get taxed the same way that entertainers get taxed.

They were like, ‘Ah, this is messed up. This guy should be paying us taxes while he's here. He's working. He's making a lot of money.’ So all these states instituted this tax” “When people sign NBA contracts and it's like, ‘Oh, this guy's worth this amount of money,’ it's like, no. Cut it in half before the guy spends a dollar.
