The experience is a plus, but what we're really impressed with is his character and personality. We think he'll be a great mentor to our kids and to our young coaching staff.

It's always the same thing that drives me -- a type of character or personality that I've never done before, or that allows me to try out some new acting technique. So I'm always experimenting and looking for that interesting hook.

He is a special person. He has a great personality and character beyond reproach. They broke the mode when they made his personality.

[Bell says that the Drake character is a much more exaggerated version of his real personality.] I was never that much of a rebel in school, ... I never really went to the lengths that he goes to to be that deviant.

That was kind of a turning point for him. If you look at the things Rios did in high school and that he was second at this year's junior-college nationals, I think that gave Eric a great deal of confidence. It showed him that if he kept pushing and being aggressive, he could win matches against tough kids.

Why am I as I am? To understand that of any person, his whole life, from
Birth must be reviewed. All of our experiences fuse into our personality. Everything that ever happened to us is an ingredient.
