wasn't the guy who got tired in the Super Bowl.
I tune into it every now and then, but I don't really care for it. The only two guys I like on there are Dan Marino and Bob Costas . So when you come next year, I probably won't do the interview.
All I can tell everybody is, I'm the same guy, just on a different team.
As you get to know me, you kind of figure me out, that I'm not as probably as bad of a guy that I've been reported to be. I'm not that jerk.
Everybody is not going to be squeaky clean. All the guys they are giving these marketing endorsement deals are the ones going out there getting in trouble. That is what is really puzzling to me. They will take a chance on the so-called "good image guy" and they are the ones that go out there and screw it all up. You have not seen my face go across the screen for any off the field problems, period.
Like I have said all along, I have the best doctor of all, and that is God. You can't argue with a guy like that.
I may be a public figure, but really, I'm just like a guy who could be in your family and have some difficult things happen to him.
Say I had been with a guy like Tom Brady, Peyton Manning or Drew Brees all of my career. Are you kidding me?
Jerry (Rice) played until he was 42. At 39, I ran a 4.43 40-yard dash. You look at the number of dropped balls and the way guys are playing now and you can't honestly say I can't do better.
Jerry, I know what's expected of me. I won't let you down.
Just because I don't talk to everybody, that's up to me,
I'm here in camp and that's all I can say.
There are things players go through on an everyday basis in the business of football. You don't see it all with the glitz and glamour of game day.
Some people are too prideful to go out and reach out to people to help them in that situation because it's just such a dark time.
