I didn't even want to watch. I put a towel over my head. The Patriots, that's why they are the champions.
I didn't sleep much. I had nerves. It didn't hit me until the second quarter, 'I'm playing in the Super Bowl.' I left some plays out there I usually could make in my sleep. But I have no complaints.
Charlie's been here a long time. He's looked good at practice. I know he's licking his chops for this opportunity. That's all he asks for, an opportunity to go out there and play.
He threw a hell of a ball to me, and I think that sealed the game for us. It got our crowd back into it.
I'm proud of my mom and proud of our Korean heritage. It's something I should have done a long time ago ... and it's going to be very emotional. And I hope they accept me for who I am.
Hearing it from Jerome, I really didn't worry about the dropped pass.
I am very happy to be here, to come back to where it all started.
I am at a loss for words. There has been a lot of great MVP's who won the Super Bowl. I am speechless right now. This is truly a dream come true.
I dropped the first touchdown - I was too worried about my feet staying in bounds. I took my eyes off the ball.
It's really important for me. The vets aren't going to play much next week, so this is really my test before the season starts.
It's a book waiting to be written. We're in that position to put him in the Super Bowl. A lot of guys just want to go out and play not only for themselves, but for a guy like Jerome Bettis.
It's a book waiting to be written. If this will be his last year, what better way than to finish his career off where it all started, in Detroit. . . . A lot of our guys just want to go out and not only play for themselves, but for a guy like Jerome Bettis.
It's a dream come true. I just want to thank the Korean community for the support for my mom and me.
It's a fairy tale come true for him.
