Growing up as a kid, the back of my house faced a little community airport about four or five miles from my house.

If my mother put on a helmet and shoulder pads and a uniform that wasn't the same as the one I was wearing, I'd run over her if she was in my way. And I love my mother.

You practice Monday through Friday in college, or Monday through Saturday in the pro's - and then you just go out and knock somebody's head off.

The way strength and conditioning has helped me now is that I make it a point to go to the gym everyday if I can.

It occurred to me in my junior year of high school. I got my first letter from a big college. I still have that letter to this day - a letter from Indiana.

I hate to blow my own horn, but I gave a lot of people fits.

I took a lot of things for granted - especially how I treated my body.
