My mom just wants to make sure that my heart is always in whatever I do and I'm in things for the right reasons.
I don't mind talking about the game. I don't mind talking about what we go through as players, because I want people to get a deeper look inside instead of looking at stats all the time or looking at numbers or just watching the game.

Until I know this sure uncertainty, I'll entertain the offered fallacy.
