Imagine being so immortal on the football field and now that stops. Stops. And then you live in the past constantly. You can't help it. How could you not help it? Tell me that, especially in the 50s and stuff, when people wasn't elevated on, after we done with this, if we haven't saved up, we're screwed.

I don't care, black, white, Chinese, unless somebody's such a big fan, they have rich guys, I loved them when I played, and they gave you a job. That's what happened to a lot of those guys. They became salesmen for the big corporations because guys loved them when they were playing. But then the glory was over, though, you know?

No, I had everything, and next thing you know, I'm $60 million in debt. Now you owe everything. Could you imagine, dude? You owe everything now. How'd you get out of that? Hmm. This is interesting. Listen, right? For some reason, they thought I was trying to get a deal to get out of this bankruptcy. They thought I was going to still fight. I had no intention to fight.

They said, nah, you're going to fight. You're going to get out of this deal, and then you're going to fight for a whole bunch of money. You're a fucking sucker. So they kept thinking I was going to fight. They wouldn't give me deals. And so I just kept paying a little bit at a time, make some money, I kept paying them.

And then, next thing you know, I would owe them money for so long, they would say, hey, you owe this for so long, so we're going to decline you owing us this. Because you're not paying us. You owe this for so long, so now you don't owe us $5 million. We're going to take $7 or $5 million off. And so that's how I was getting down. And so they said, all right, we're going to take this off, too.

Wow, bro. But you haven't paid in seven months. If you don't pay this in seven months, you're going to take $20 million off or something like that. Just never pay them. Yeah, you never pay. How could they do that? They're supposed to take everything. I was living in Manchester. They're supposed to took all that. How did that happen? Interesting. I was thinking, how am I keeping all this?

I didn't have the slightest idea. I got involved with this woman who's now my wife, right? And she just kept saying, everything's going to be all right. We're going to write a show. We're going to produce television shows and movies, and this is going to be over. I'm looking at her, and I'm still strung out on drugs. And I'm looking at her, and I said, that's just illusion, though.

You could hear everything.
