I come from a background of hanging out with friends and shooting videos with them, with funny stuff coming out of the group. I guess we got the same charge jocks get out of sports.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I grew up playing hockey and some football, and I always think about the first time you walk into the locker room on a new team. The cliques are looking at you funny, and you make one friend, but then they're trying to stab you in the back.
I hung out with the jocks. It doesn't mean I necessarily was one. I was just kind of there.
The jocks that used to stuff me into a locker when I was a punk rocker are my best buddies now.
A majority of my YouTube friends I've made because I made a trip down to California and literally tweeted them saying, 'Hey! Come over - let's shoot something!' And then two strangers will just meet up, talk, and shoot something.
I've always been around dudes and sports.
But sports carried me away from being in a gang, or being associated with drugs. Sports was my way out.
I'm a jock and I'm an athlete, and that's what I love to do.
I wasn't a jock in school, and by the 10th grade, when I was in boarding school I was carrying water buckets for the girls' hockey team. I was the kid with long hair and glasses and acne trying to learn how to play guitar and piano in the music center. I was not an athlete past the age of 13 or 14 when they start throwing the ball really fast.
I'm not getting involved in sports anymore, except on film. I'm not agile unless a camera's going.
I'm an athletic junkie - I play in all the celebrity all-star games, and I've become buddies with a bunch of athletes.
