Best advice you've received?: I don't know. I'm not very good at remembering things like that. Anything you want to impart on your children that maybe you haven't told them yet?: I want to tell them some things to keep themselves safe. I need to tell them about rape, and how to make sure they don't get in a situation where someone can accuse them of something they didn't do, but that's when they get a little older. Maybe 12 or 13. I also need to tell them how to act around the police, and how to not get shot. Proudest moment as a father?: Every day my boys show how smart, well mannered, and emotionally healthy they are, and that's what I'm most proud of. When their mother and they were moving, I overheard one of their neighbors in their apartment building talking about how they would be sorry to see them go because they never hear the boys screaming, or arguing, or causing a ruckus, the only time they hear the boys is them laughing all the time, and it was a joy for the neighbor.
Break a law and retire a millionaire with 20 mil, but would have to change your identity, or do it the hard way?: I don't believe in shortcuts like breaking the law in order to get money. The path of working hard to a payoff is important in building character and pride. What would be the worst way for you to die?: Slowly I guess. I always tell people I don't want to live forever, I just don't want to be in a hospital dying slowly. I would want to go at home in my sleep.
If you could pick one person to portray your life in film, who would it be?: Ryan Gosling-- it's locked in. It's gonna be Ryan Gosling. I'm telling you, Kou, Gosling has got to be the one because he's the only one that can handle my intensity.This is about ripping open the fabric of historical fact and making a film about it starring Ryan Gosling as Barnstable. Spoiler Might be an It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia reference.
If you could win one race in the world, what would it be and why?: I'd win the race war. Maybe I misunderstood the question
What's your ideal game watching set up? Alone, big group, small group?: Small group or with my kids preferably. I use to go to the Skybar at Staple Center during games sometimes. It was nice being in a bar with a ton of Lakers fans, but I still prefer just having my kids there. I use to get really mad every time they lost, and I didn't want to be around anyone for the rest of the day. Thankfully, I've gotten past that or I might have committed suicide over these past few seasons.
DC or Marvel? Favorite characters from that side?: Marvel for comics, DC for cartoons. My favorite Characters from DC are Green Lantern, and The Flash, but I don't think I have a favorite from Marvel I just historically like Marvel comic stories better.
What Marvel storyline would you like to see the movies tackle after phase 3 (Infinity Guantlet)?: I loved the Age of Apocalypse alternate timeline story they did. I want to see that done right. Meaning written and directed by the team that does the Avengers.

If a friend needed to secretly get you to throw up on tape, what would he secretly feed you to make this happen?
Are you good at basketball? Position? Style of play?: Not good anymore. Scratch that, I was never very good lol. I was a very good defender, and rebounder, decent handles, but that was all I could do consistently. Could never shoot, but I wasn't too bad with hustle plays near the basket. I had this weird hook shot that I could consistently make from near the 3pt line on the left side of the basket. It was so unorthodox, no one would guard it, and it went in way more than people would believe unless they played me a lot. But I was too scared it wouldn't go in during a full court game, so I never shot it in a real game, just half court, or 1 on 1. You're the coach: pick your starting 5 from LB members and explain why they are on your team and who will take the winning shot. Also, explain how you would tell Sirron he got cut.: Naw, don't want to play favorites, and I don't think I could decide anyway.
- you get 'em by mail everyday but do you clip coupons?: Never, although I should take the time I guess. - you have a week vacay...Maui or the Bahamas?: Never been to either place, but maybe the Bahamas just because I think it might be a little less touristy than Maui. I don't like the tourist scene in other countries. You don't see the real country when you do the tourist thing. - if your honey likes them, would you don tight leather pants?: Absolutely. I don't have much shame, and don't get embarrassed easy. - see close friend in the bathroom does his biz in a rush doesn't wash his hands...he's at your dinner table with finger foods. What do you do?: If this is a close friend, I curse him out and tell him to get his nasty a** into the bathroom to wash his hands. - how do you rate your dance floor skills?: Poor before drink #3, pretty good after drink #3, or that's what people tell me. I harly ever drink, and only socially, but when I do, I get looser, dance and sing more lol Bonus Q?... - five famous people at your dinner table? Who and why?: Eh, I don't know that I'd care to have famous people to dinner. I don't know who
