I've been fortunate and blessed to further my career in the Arena Football League, and I've had a good time doing it.

When I graduated from college I didn't want to play in the AFL.

If I had it my way, I never would have left San Francisco, but things change and that's the nature of this business. We have to move on. We hopefully get opportunities down the road that we take advantage of.

When you think about your heritage, you think about toughness and hard work.

There are times when I'm watching an NFL quarterback struggling to get through the game, and I get bitter to some extent.

I think I'm very conscientious of how precious life is and how quickly life can be taken away from you, especially at times when it can be least expected.
