I think I could have become an outstanding professional baseball player, but I don't think I could have reached the heights that I have in football - being one of the very top players in the game, being a world champion.

I've figured out that life in general is a team effort; it's a team game.

Football is an honest game. It's true to life. It's a game about sharing. Football is a team game. So is life.

When you win, nothing hurts.

You learn how to be a gracious winner and an outstanding loser.

To win, you have to lose, and then get pissed off.

Pressure just makes you go a little more. I kind of like pressure.
