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.
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.
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.
It's a difficult job to do, but that is why we do it. Only so many people can do it. But it, it enables you to... for a brief period of time to kind of get away. You have to go back and deal with, but it's a good escape.
I'm thankful for all the things that this job has given me and my family. But probably the thing that I am most proud of throughout my career is that, not only myself, but my family and the people around me have just been regular people, which we are.
I think every player should think that he's a difference maker.
The town, the team, it's a family. That has helped. For some people who have had to deal with some of the problems I have had to deal with don't have football as an out.
With each game I play, each season I play, everyone would agree with me, I'm running out of chances.
I grew up a Saints fan, an hour from the Superdome.
It's fun leading this offense. I don't think we've hit our peak.
The party now is having my kids laugh and my wife laugh and my teammates. I want them to see me have fun and put it in a different way.
