“I’ve been thinking and I see the current situation and all that’s been happening and my time in the game and all the hits I’ve been giving you. I can see that people aren’t happy, I don’t even mean the fans, and I mean people I was supposedly close with and such people. It’s not pleasant here anymore.”
