Nobody is thinking they're going to come out here and put a team here and become a multimillionaire. I don't know anybody that comes into the NFL like that

There are a lot of people with money, but not with the passion to really go spend it.

Other sports culminate at different times of the year, but the NFL is in the fourth quarter - that's where the money is.

I take a good feeling away from what football brings.

We've all got to get on the same page.

Is [football] for everybody? Of course not. But it is a meaningful contribution beyond, I think, other alternatives.

I promise you that during my life, I was more concerned about not letting people down, about doing my part, than I was ever into what it did for me. That is one of the great things about sports, and frankly, football really does instill that.
