I know it's not a one man team win or lose.
I'd write over and over, 'I will not throw into coverage.'
I think my stubbornness, hardheadedness and stupidity is what has allowed me to play for 20 years.
I've always been a Packer, always will be a Packer.
Most talented players don't always succeed. Some don't even make the team. It's more what's inside.
Until power is hooked back up, until there are places where you can go get gas and you can go get something to eat, I'm better off being here.
I, most talented players don't always succeed. Some don't even make the team. It's more what's inside.
But when you lose a family member or something tragic happens, that stays with you forever. You never get over it. Knowing that you have to deal with that for the rest of your life... Football is important, but not as important as you once thought it was.
In the NFL a lot of times everyone gets caught up in the business side of things. For them it's all about money and it really leaves a sour taste in your mouth.
You can lose a game but, I see guys every week including myself, you lose a game, it's a tough loss, you're down, two weeks later you forgot about it. You know it's amazing how down you were, but all of the sudden you're like it never happened.
I don't worry anymore about where's the big hangout Tuesday night, Friday. Couldn't tell you and no one comes to me for advice anymore in those areas anymore, so real boring I would say.
Sometimes you get caught up in what's going on around you. The reality is that you are just a regular person. At some point, the career will be over, the bright lights turn off. That can come back to haunt you if you're not just a regular guy.
It's been six years since I have had a drink and I have two girls, and my priorities are a lot different now and I just can't believe I was that guy. And I would not go back, I would not trade the way I am now for anything.
Yip cabbage on three!
