Any game is important to me. At Boston College, when I went out for the spring games, I wanted to win. Maybe it is more important than other preseason games. It's just that everyone is expecting a lot from me in my first week of professional football. I want to confirm my expectations.

My daughter just graduated college and she's a dance major. She's done a couple of dance videos already and won Miss Massachusetts a couple of weeks ago. She's going out for Miss United States the second week of July, out in Las Vegas. She will probably wind up going to New York and trying the Broadway thing.

But I'll tell you this: When I lose my athleticism, it's time to go.

It's nice to have a situation where you can make it fun.

My favorite song to play is 'Smokin'' by Boston. I actually had a chance to play that with the band Boston live.

The Flutie Bowl is a great event that brings together people who really care about the autism community. We always have a great time bowling and playing music.

Football is my profession now. I'm getting married in August... It's a new experience for me as someone just getting out of college. I still have the same attitude about football I always had. I play hard. I enjoy practice. I'd rather be throwing in passing drills than sitting around and watching TV.
