I was with Michael last year before they did the vote, and I know how much it meant to him last year. I know how devastated he was when he was not elected.
I'd be surprised if one quarterback in the league could compute his own rating. Peyton Manning is as cerebral as it gets, and I don't think he'd have a first clue.
I happen to think those things are going to happen for Indianapolis.
It was made even more special going in beside Michael and Emmitt, ... I remember looking at the names, but no, I never in my wildest dreams ... I don't know what Michael and Emmitt thought. Knowing them, they thought they were going in.
It initially sounded strange to say the top 25 would be successful. Now after seeing the teams that have been in this for so long struggle, it's not hard to accept at all.
I do think you have to have a great receiver and a great running back, ... But really every position is critical.
I know Tony is feeling some pressure this week because Roger and I live here and our sponsor is based here. But I'd hate for Tony to put undue pressure on himself and try to do too much.
I played it to win championships and win as many games as I could. I feel like I did it as well as anybody that's played the game. I'm happy that we won three world championships.
I've never been a fan of this 'manage the game' stuff. It doesn't make sense to pay guys to make plays, then tell them to go out and not make mistakes. If that's truly your goal, why would you ever have your quarterback drop back and throw a pass?
I don't agree with this call. I don't agree with this call and only because there's still time on the clock. And with Washington with two timeouts, they still have time to move the football down for a field goal. ... Boy, this is risky.
I seriously doubt I would be standing here today.
They're probably talking about the new 96 car by Texas Instruments.
This is really unbelievable what Carolina has done to this Chicago defense. They have made the defense look very average here tonight.
I'd met Sterling during a trip to Nashville. I invited him to the Super Bowl and he invited me to Daytona. I was in the pits when Sterling won his first race here that day it was the most exciting thing I've ever seen. I've been hooked ever since.
