We run into some pretty tough arguments sometimes, but the idea is that at the end of the day, my wife and I realize that we'll always be holding each other's hand. This is a lifelong relationship, and after 12 years she hasn't gotten rid of me yet

If you're not really having a good time, it's not worth it.

I really love to ride my motorcycle. When I want to just get away and be by myself and clear my head, that's what I do.

I grew up in Chicago, so I've always been a Bears fan. Dad used to take me to Bears games and Cubs games. My brother used to ride me over to Lake Forest College on his Honda Supersport and we'd watch the Bears practice. I remember those guys out there as monsters - they were the biggest things I've ever seen!

One way I differ from my character, Coach Taylor, is that I never would have taken this faraway job without my wife's consent.

I was never upset that I did not get an Emmy. That I did get an Emmy nomination, I couldn't be happier and prouder.

Everything moves a little quicker in Los Angeles.
