As an athlete, when you are on that field and the fans get really engaged and you can feel their energy and passion and true love of the game, it is absolutely a spiritual experience.

Some of the best motivation in life is trying to impress a girl.

To me, if you're trying to impress a girl, get a date, they're gonna like that more because you're a confident guy. That's what it comes down to.

The only thing I really like doing during the week is getting ready to play the game.

I think any man who lets a woman pick what he should wear... I mean, you gotta draw the line somewhere as a man. I see these guys, 'My wife told me to wear this!' And I just shake my head.

On the field, you come into sync with your teammates and coaches and together you achieve something that you could never do on your own.

Sometimes, getting up in the morning and brishing your teath is the hardest part of the day - it all just hurts.
