You know, but I found some things out about him, and even with John, I found some bad things or good things aobut him. It is we've unknown, we've, for years. Where my father and my mom spent a lot time with Mike and found out a lot of good things about her, but what about me that you guys don't know?
首先我要谈谈我的父母。我的生涯集锦随处可见，还有什么关于我的事是你们不知道的？当我今天看到其他获奖者发言的时候，当他们讲述自己故事的时候，我发现关于杰瑞·索隆的很多事是我所不知道的。我们总是打电话，但是我从来不知道他小学一年级到八年级的故事。即便是大卫·罗宾逊，我认识他已经很久了，但是从他的演讲中我也知道了很多，同样关于约翰的事，好的坏的都有。我也知道了关于吉普森的事，我父母以前也经常谈论到他，但是有什么关于我的事是你们都不知道的？
I got two brothers, James and Larry, five four, five five in height. They gave me all I could ever ask for, as brothers, in terms of comepetition. My brother Larry is an ideal situation with small things coming with small packages. This do fall me every single day.

我有两个兄弟，詹姆斯和拉里，身高五尺四寸和五尺五寸，他们给予了我所能要的一切。作为兄弟，我们从小就互相竞争。我的哥哥拉里总是和我争一些小东西，而我每次都争不过他。我母亲这时候都会叫我们进屋，因为我们争斗得太激烈了。我大哥总是不在家，因为他当兵，一当就是31年。
