With the mindset that I give everything I've got for the man that's next to me, not me, cause I know what I got while I'm by myself, but when I step on the field, when I step on the turf, what am I willing to sacrifice?
Let me explain my job very simply: My job is to line up five, seven, 10 yards in front of a man and run into him at full speed.
I don't know a man on this Earth who can outwork me.
I fight for the man next to me. It don't matter about me, what matters about me is sacrificing for you; for the ultimate goal which is us.
Man believes in the possible, but God believes in the impossible.
There's one secret to hitting hard, and that is to completely dedicate your body. That's the difference between a man going forward and a man going backward, no matter how big he is.
Effort is between you, and you, and nobody elseI'm pissed off for greatness. Cause if you ain't pissed off for greatness, that just means you're okay with being mediocre, and ain't no man in here okay with just basic.
What's the difference between you and the man sitting beside you? It's one percent. In my business, only one percent makes it. If everyone had the same dream, only 1 will make it from this crowd. Who will be that one?
I was leaving ... Cobalt nightclub, ... And on my way to my limousine ... a fight broke out way up past my limousine. We saw it, I grabbed my people, we hopped in my truck, we left. While we're driving off, we heard gun shots. We left the scene, and that is basically it.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out. It's a very easy method with us. We run the football very well, we play hard-nosed defense,
To be on the cover of Madden NFL 2005 is the ultimate honor, ... With the focus on defense in the game this year, I knew it was my chance.
We had a certain formula when we won the Super Bowl, we had a certain formula when we went back to the playoffs, and if we're trying to go back to the Promised Land, there is a certain formula we're sticking to, hands down.
We can't have a play like they had on the touchdown when we play the Colts. Rex and the coaches will fix that.
Because a football game is just sixty minutes, but I'm training six, seven hours in every day. So, going for sixty minutes becomes easy. More importantly, I think that your muscles mature and can move in all different directions.
