"Sometimes I get a little concerned [about] the boys" because of his changing schedule. "Then, someone will say, 'Oh, the boys love to travel. Get out there. Take them with you.'"

"I want to be a great father, whatever that entails, and that is a lot of up and down. I can show them the way, I can teach them things and all that, but I want to make sure that they feel like their life is their own, like mine was for me. That's what my parents gave me."
