I hope every team in the league keeps thinking like Irvin. They are going to get the same thing the Chargers, Redskins and 49ers did. Terry is legit, and I know I am legit.

I'm sad to see it happen. My regards go out to the family. I will try at some point to get in contact with some of his family.
I'm not the type of person to point fingers at anybody, and I don't want anybody saying anything to me. There are situations where balls are bounced to your feet you don't say anything.
They'll continue to show it on television, ... They'll show it on ESPN 40 times. They'll say I'm a cancer. The crowd loved it. The fans love it. The producers in the truck love it because it's big news. But to us, it's a joke.

I know Sammy, so I was playing with him a little bit. But when you see that situation like that (one-on-one coverage by a backup cornerback), that just tells you that obviously they must really think that I can't play football. You're making a big mistake in that coverage.
I know talent when I see it. I know frauds when I see em. I know players that can play and cant play.
I never really called people out. It was more along the lines of teasing a person. It started for me in fifth grade on the basketball court.
I was the first athlete, from a training standpoint, with Adidas to have their own signature shoe.
