There's lots of people my age (and younger) that have grown up in chaotic environments and I just happen to be one of the first ones to make it to pro sports. It's more a societal thing than an athletics thing.

Never be afraid to do what's right. If no one ever says anything, nothing ever changes.

If you're not willing to speak out for the rights of other people, then who do you expect to speak out for you when it's your turn?

Football is an absolutely idiotic pastime by any rational standards. You're running into other people as hard as you can, you get frequent muscle strains and ligament tears, and the protective padding really doesn't do all that much to absorb the blunt trauma.

People, please remember that I choose my words very carefully. Assumptions are your enemy.

I would like people to pay attention to the idea of rational empathy, and that as a society, we are walking down a path that's well-trodden throughout history.

As a business you should probably be examining, hey, is this the type of message we want to send?
