Potential means you haven't done anything yet.

I'm trying to keep my own house from burning down. I can't worry about someone else's house.

I love the game. I think it's a great game because you find out a lot about yourself. You test your mettle every week. There's no grey area, there's instant gratification and there are no quarterly reports. We're not just doing a little bit better. You know every Sunday what happened.

Nowadays, if you are afraid of confrontation, you are not going to do very well.

All you have to do is play better than the other guy and things go well. If you don't play better than the other players then somebody takes your place. Now a lot of guys, in this day and time with the transient nature of the sport, as soon as the competition gets too good, they want out.

The thing I really look for in this business is there are guys who are into football and there are guys who are in the profession for other reasons.
