To my fans: Thank you very much for all your support! I am very disappointed and saddened that you couldn’t hear the rest of my speech…

I was deeply moved by the outpouring of support you showed me after my HOF speech was cut short.

My mother taught me to stand up for what I believed in. I put a lot of care and love into my speech…

…I wanted it to inspire and motivate people when they are hurting.

Since my mother taught me to always try and take the high road, I will. If my speech helped just 1 mother & 1 son out there, thank you GOD!
