I used to imagine what it would be like to do what Jim Brown was doing. I used to imagine what it would be like to be like a Tony Dorsett. I used to imagine what it would be like to be like a Walter Payton. I was imagining Emmitt Smith doing exactly what they were doing.

History has never seen Emmitt Smith. I don't care what has come before me. That's why they call it history you create new history.

But if you take advantage of health care, balance your body back out, put it back where its supposed to be, you function better, and you recover faster.
