Sure, sometimes guys pass you up in salary, and maybe it's a lesser player, but it's all based on what a team has as far as value in that person.

As you get older, you look at things differently.
Nothing, for the most part, surprises me anymore.
If I can change than anyone can change. I promise you that.
Every game I've ever played, regardless if it was pre-season or Super Bowl, meant the same to me, and I laid it all on the line.
