goes player somebody talk talked
I'll say this and I don't want to talk about it anymore. It's interesting to me that for somebody who's been so tight-lipped about everything that goes on in that organization, that I'm the only player that he's ever talked about when it comes to a negotiation.
denied leave needs player says talked tough
I've never denied it was tough to leave Atlanta. It's interesting to me, for someone who's been so tightlipped, that I'm the only player he's even talked about. To me, that says there is something that needs to be explained.
huge kids next owe talk wife
I've been asked, 'What are you going to do next year?' I don't know. I know that when the season's over, I'll talk to my wife and I'll talk to my kids and see where they're at. I owe it to them to make them a huge part of the decision.

I think most players are of the mind-set, if you leave our system alone, it's going to work, and it has worked,

It's just a number. In many respects, I feel as good as I have in a long time. I had as good a winter workout-wise and throwing-wise as I've had in a long time, so I'm excited about it.
concerned less time
There was a time where I thought it was old, and now I don't think it's so old. Like I've said all along, it's more about how I feel and I feel great, and because of that I'm less concerned about it.

It's unfortunate. But it's also a very newsworthy item out there.

It hard to tell. In one game it's hard to make an assessment, but he still has that same presence, still has that same effect on the game.
guys point time variation
I think a lot of guys at some point and time show some variation of that pitch.
age carried hate himself infectious life passion prime seeing seemingly
He carried himself with a lot of passion, and he had an infectious personality, so he's going to be missed. You hate seeing something like that, obviously, at such a young age and seemingly in the prime of his life .
involved program wants whatever
I'm over that. Whatever happens, happens. I think we have a program that's more than efficient. If someone wants to get involved in our business, so be it.
