The highest standards of conduct must be met by everyone in the NFL because it is a privilege to represent the NFL, not a right.

I take my responsibilities very seriously.

The owners don't win by having a lockout. Shutting down your business is not good for anybody and it's certainly not good for the players, it's certainly not good for the fans. And that's most important to us.

It is a privilege for me to serve the NFL. It is the only place I have ever wanted to work.

The same mistakes can never be repeated.

I think when someone is injured in your family, you want to speak to the individual and you want to hear their voice and you want to make sure they are OK.

I'm very fortunate, and I know that.
