San Fransisco 49ers' tight end Vernon Davis might be struggling this season, but he has plenty of other interests to keep himself balanced. From his surprisingly impressive talents as an artist, to his unique outlook on what he'd be doing if he weren't playing football, Davis is a true renaissance man. In this video we catch up with the Bay Area footballer. Watch the interview after the jump.

When you hear of a male model, the last thing that comes to mind is an NFL player. But Texans safety Will Demps is just that, and he is no Zoolander. Demps, who is half Korean and half African-American, is an inspiration to millions, as he has worked hard all his life just to prove he can make it. Demps starred for his high school football team, but no major college would give him a scholarship, so he ended up walking on at San Diego State. Then he went undrafted by the NFL, but eventually wound up becoming a starter. In this video we find out what's it like to be Will Demps, a person who has millions of fans, including some celebrities.

LeBron James is one of the greatest basketball players of all time. He puts fear into anyone who steps on the court with him, but in this video he may have met his match ... in the form of a factory worker from Ohio (now living in California). We caught up with LeBron in Venice Beach, Calif., where he played a game of horse with a lucky fan, who was the winner of The Cub Cadet trick shot challenge. Check out the amazing array of trick shots this underdog baller uses to beat LeBron, and then hear what LeBron has to say about falling to a non-NBA player.
