Got a minute?

Edwin Jackson.

Your perfect meal?

The Thanksgiving thing - macaroni and cheese, collard greens, cornbread and a big honey-baked ham.

First car?

A GMC Yukon - after I got to pro ball.

Your go-to karaoke song?

Tupac - Hail Mary. It's easy to remember.

What's your biggest fear - bugs, snakes, rats?

Getting bitten by an infected mosquito.

Least favorite household chore?

Mopping the floor and waiting for it to dry. You always have to go back in and get something.

Dream date?

I want to say Halle Berry, but everyone says Halle Berry. So how about Alicia Keys.
