along bad emotional fighting fights-and-fighting people teammates
I'm not a fighting guy. I get along with my teammates and everybody, but when you're on the field, things happen. Then people see you as a bad guy, a very emotional guy. I'm very calm, but when you're on the field, little things can go south.

I?m not a fighting guy. I get along with my teammates and everybody. When you?re on the field, things happen. People say ?you?re a bad guy, a very emotional guy.?

Every time I look at the tape -- at how skinny and how little I was -- it brings back those memories, ... I played with some great guys that year in Cleveland. It's kind of tough to put it away.

Of course I would like to stay here. It's not fun, I can tell you that, playing one year here and one year there. I just hope they can bring me back, but if they don't I guess I'll have to go someplace else.
