As a player, it says everything about you if you made the Hall of Fame. But, then again, boy... there's something about winning a Super Bowl.

I didn't respond well to a firm hand and insults.

No one will ever win four [Super Bowls] in six years again. It won't happen. You can chisel that sucker in stone.

You find out in life that people really like you funny. So what do you give 'em? Humor. And then if you show them the other side, they don't like you as much. I find, too, that I can hide behind the idiot's mask being funny, and you never see the sorrow or the pain.

People ask me all the time would I like to still be playing? No. I'm glad I played when I played.

Bottom line is, if you turn the ball over to a team that isn't as good, you then have brought them up to your level.

Everybody handles things differently.
