I had the perfect job for a gamer. From February to October, I'd get up at 7 in the morning with nothing to do but play games until I had to be at the park around 1 or 2 o'clock. When I got back after the game, I played until 3 or 4 in the morning. Curt Schilling

I mean, I was just one of the ones who got exposed, and because of the position I was in, where I was in my life, it went mainstream.
