Football is a sport of emotions, and we have to capture that in our films.

Life is great, football is better.

But I can tell you this: Nothing will happen up there that can duplicate my life down here. That life cannot be better than the one I've lived down here, the football life. It's been perfect.

To me, football is very personal. Even as a kid, I looked at football in dramaturgical terms. It wasn't the score that interested me, it was the struggle.

I was kicked out of school one year for streaking.

I blew the college boards, and to ease the snub from Harvard made a tour of Europe.

Football is such a great game, but football players are so dull.
