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.

Part of my growing up was always trying to make my parents proud and always trying to keep them happy. I think part of what held them together was my involvement in sports.

I don't know if it's how I speak or what it is about me that presents that sort of label, but I don't know how many times I have to be out in public with a girlfriend to stop that from being said.

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.

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