I was serious about retiring the first time, but the first week I was home my wife had SO many chores to do I went back.

Just, you never know what the next day is going to bring. That goes for football, goes for off the field, and I gave up a long time ago trying to predict the future and trying to deal with things I couldn't deal with.

Even in past years, when I wasn't in the Super Bowl, I wished I was.

With each game I play, each season I play, everyone would agree with me, I'm running out of chances.

Sometimes you get caught up in what's going on around you. The reality is that you are just a regular person. At some point, the career will be over, the bright lights turn off. That can come back to haunt you if you're not just a regular guy.

I think people have all faced decisions at times where you never know.

Because after my first year I had a lot of success, took everybody by storm, came back the next year thought it was easy and didn't have near the season I had the previous year. It was kind of a wake-up call. And so, life goes on.
