I was always geared towards either wanting to finish number one or be number one as far as the best player that I could be, or be the best player at my position in the league.

I'm proud of the fact that besides being known as a successful former football player, I've also worked hard to establish myself as a successful businessman, network broadcaster, sports & entertainment executive and philanthropist.
