FROM BUZZMASTER'S DESK
Enjoy the weekend SportsNation! We had a good week of chats to reflect on while we watch some football. We had "Twilight's" Taylor Lautner and new millionaire and 2009 WSOP winner Joe Cada as well as legendary MMA fighter Dan Henderson. And, to top everything off, we had Andre Agassi to finish the week.
OVERHEARD
“Andre, when did you tell Steffi about your drug use and some of the other things you admitted in the book? Did she know prior to you writing the book? How did she react?
” -- David (Chicago)
“Yes, I told her in the fall of 1999, in the process of falling in love with her. Her reaction was a great sadness to how someone must feel to make those decisions. She understood in the process of this book and my desire to tell the story and use it as a tool for others to better their lives. She knows its an atonement of sorts.
” -- Andre Agassi, retired tennis star
