I've been pretty fortunate.
I'm proud of everything I've done.
You know I used to listen to music a lot more.
My intention... isn't to create controversy.
I didn't know what to expect coming into this year. There were a lot of question marks, and I think that's obvious now. Can we overcome it? Time will tell.
I consider myself more of a loner now and I think when you get older, especially in this game, and just talking with other players who have come and gone, I see what they were saying when I was a young guy in the locker room.
I don't need to have a retirement, retire your jersey, all that stuff to solidify my career.
There are those people who are in your corner no matter what, you can't do any wrong, even when you do wrong. And then there are those people that no matter what you do they are going to dislike you and that's not going to change.
Obviously talent gets you to a certain point, but it's what you do with it, how you handle.
You know, I've had my ups and downs.
Even in past years, when I wasn't in the Super Bowl, I wished I was.
Well I would say that we're regular people first of all and we're normal and it's obvious by some of the things that have happened just because our name is famous we're not immune to tragedy.
My job is to throw passes and be a leader.
My wife, she still gives me a hard time, and says I hunt too much or I like to play golf too much. And she's probably right, but it sure beats some of the things I used to do.
