It seems that most of the people who actually know him on a personal level, and the 1000's of kids he helps in his hometown of Oakland (on a one on one level, not as just a guy with a foundation that he funnels money into), have a different opinion of him then you do.

He may not have an Eisenreich or Grienke type anxiety disorder, but he's obviously not very comfortable talking about himself or having microphones put in front of his face.
Dave, I agree that he is a charitable guy, but he is not the least bit uncomfortable about mics in front of his face. He's in a battle with the NFL over them making him talk with the media, and he's not giving in. After watching the crotch-grab demonstration with Conan and Gronk, I'm also convinced that he isn't worried too much about doing something that will embarrass himself or that will be taken out of context.
