There Was A Time When

But When You Lose A Family Member Or Something Tragic Happens, That Stays With You Forever. You Never Get Over It. Knowing That You Have To Deal With That For The Rest Of Your Life... Football Is Important, But Not As Important As You Once Thought It Was.

Maybe I'm Old-school, But I Always Thought You Honor A Contract.

The Way I Played The Game, The Way I Live My Life, Is Very Emotional.

In My Situation, Unlike Some Players Who Retire Because They Have No Choice - Either Teams Don't Want Them Or Injuries Have Caused Them To Retire, And They Just Can't Do It - For Me, I Really Had Never Thought I Would Give Out Mentally Before I Gave Out Physically, But I Think That Was The Case.

If You Grew Up In A Household With A Football Coach Who Looks Like A Drill Sergeant, You Would Think You Would Be Tough.
