Deion Sanders Talks Hitting Rock Bottom, Says Threesomes & Foursomes Left Him Unsatisfied

“Rock bottom for me was just being in the midst of a game when everybody’s screaming when they don’t know your middle name. Rock bottom for me was having hundreds of suits and not covering the pain. Rock bottom for me was having hundreds of pairs of shoes but couldn’t take a step in the right direction. Rock bottom for me was having 10 cars and wasn’t going nowhere. Rock bottom for me was having a 14,000-square-foot house but never feeling at home. Rock bottom for me was laying between two and three women at a time, but you get up unsatisfied. Rock bottom for me … yes, I was bleeding. Laying right beside the person who said they love you, but she didn’t even know you was in pain. That was rock bottom for me.”

“I was crying out to people. But they couldn’t hear you because they saw Prime. They saw my character. The character I created, not the character of a man. They saw the character I created — that was Prime. They never once saw Deion. Never at all. They never wanted to see it. Because the character was so profound. As an actor, you start to think that Jim Carrey is The Mask or whatever it was. You start thinking Schwarzenegger is the Terminator. You start thinking Eddie Murphy really is Raw. No, he’s acting, man. And I was a victim to my … I’m not going to say my accredited acting. I was a victim to that.”
