When you look at where team sports are going, the National Football League is turning into organized warfare.
I'm working seven days a week in the fall. I couldn't possibly keep that up. This is only for the fall. In the last couple of years I've tended to do most of my serious writing in the winter, when there's nothing going on with football.
Football's in my blood - and eventually I want to be the one making decisions.
It is the greatest game that I've ever been around. It'll continue to get better and be the greatest.
He was in the right place at the right time, but he might have been elsewhere on a different afternoon.
The truth is, what Americans enjoy about football is much of what makes the sport dangerous. However, I believe there must be a way to find the art of success and vitality in football, without the driving the level of impact that causes serious risk of head trauma, paralysis and other life-changing injuries.
I don't feel like I'm getting older. I think it's the way I've looked after myself. I take my football seriously. I love scoring goals and I get a good feeling from it, so I'll do whatever it takes to be fit and feel good in games.
The best feeling is watching a real football game, because the games they show in the movies aren't real.
Football is brutality. Football is career-ending, life-threatening injury just by stepping on the field.
The greatest thing for me football-wise is that it's a test of will.
We don't want to tell our dreams. We want to show them
Quite honestly I never had a desire to be an actor. I tell people, I did not choose acting; acting chose me. I never grew up wanting to be an actor. I wanted to play football. In about 9th grade an English teacher told me I had a talent to act. He said I should audition for a performing arts high school so I did on a whim. I got accepted.
According to Ferguson, grey things are invisible. Apparantly its just total luck that planes manage to find aircraft carriers in the middle of the ocean.
Right now, I am a football player and I will sacrifice whatever is necessary to be the best.
Up until the age of 16, I was very focused on sport - I played a lot of football. Then I tore my ACL and had to stop playing.
When I was young, it wasn't about the money, it wasn't about the fame and fortune, it was about playing football.
My dad was a football player - a soccer player - for Manchester United, and I loved playing football, but I also happened to be the guy in class who was pretty good at sight reading. My teacher gave me scripts, and I was very comfortable.
Generalities don't count and won't help you in football.
I always approached the sport from a more cerebral, analytical point of view, a management perspective. I was taking all business classes there at Georgetown, I really enjoyed that. I always sort of looked at football from that perspective.
In life as in football, fall forward when you fall.
