"It's a blessing," Hargrove said. "I don't think I've played this well, this consistent. Usually by this time of year, <span style="font-weight: bold;">I'm in jail or been arrested or failed a drug test or something.</span> If you look back, that's how it is. I get about a month in (to the season) and go AWOL. "<span style="font-weight: bold;">It's November, I haven't been arrested, I haven't failed a drug test.</span> Seriously, I have to call a spade a spade. That's my reality. I'm in a very new place right now."
