I'm just going about my business. Am I going to bend over backwards to assure everybody that I'm a good guy? No, I'm not going to do it.

I don't take a day off. I don't slack. All I know is hard-nose football. There ain't no breaks or vacations for me.

Walter Payton is still the best back ever to play the game.

I would prefer to be in a place where I'm appreciated.

I take all the negatives and try to turn it into a positive.

I just want to be in a winning situation. That's the whole thing. It's nothing financial.

My thing has always been, sit down with me for an hour and base your judgments off that. That's all I ask. Don't go by what you read in the paper or hear in the streets.
