Charles Barkley, Clyde Drexler and I used to argue for hours about who the best athletes are. I thought football players were better overall.

My legacy isn't about what I did playing football, but how I use the opportunities that came from playing football.

I love basketball players for what they do for their size - so graceful.

Sportsmanship is making sure you have respect for the guy you're playing across from.

Basketball players want contact to get a foul called. Slaps on the wrist and bumps on the shoulder are big time to them, and they don't like that. In football, you get that all the time. The whole mental makeup is different.

In football, it's the ultimate team sport. You have to have good people around you as a quarterback for things to happen.

It was about being wanted, it was about winning, and it was about my passion for the game. I just loved it. I absolutely loved to compete and to step out onto that football field with my teammates.
