If you sit back & spend too much time feeling good about what you did in the past, you're going to come up short next time

I'm not going to be able to talk about the people who are involved specifically in any ongoing judicial process. We do the same thing with all our players. We take a look, as I said, at their personal family life, we look at the history of what they've done in high school and college.

Tom's [Brady] personal preferences on his footballs are something he can take about in much better detail and information than I could possibly provide.

I cannot comment on any player who has ongoing criminal charges and legal situations.

I feel like I've had a strong relationship with Robert [Kraft] and his family since I was here in 1996 and I think it's gotten stronger every year that I've been here with the Patriots. The more things we do together, talk about together, work together on, the closer we become and the more we rely on each other. I feel like our relationship is very close and continues to grow closer every year as we grow older together.

I'm not really worried about the other 31 teams.
