I'm surprised the New England Patriots didn't take the decision out of his hands. As soon as this thing happened, they should have put him on IR.
They won't drop the passes they dropped last week.
Not if you have a dome, and you get a pact with God not to bring down the snow. It's been nice. I've got all kind of minks and cashmeres in the closet - I shouldn't say that. I don't want anyone to break in my hotel room.
If you drop that ball out there, everybody knows: 'Man, Michael blew the game,' ... Jackie Smith. Tight end. Dropped the ball. That's the only thing I know of him, because he had it right here in his hands. Now, you make the play... The Catch. Everybody remembers it.
Hey, we have obligations. We all work for a living now.
I certainly understand people having their doubts. I'm going to try to do everything I can within reason to clear my name up.
I'm going to do everything I can to clear my name. I've talked to my attorneys about the legalities of everything and when we get home tomorrow, we're talking. Dan, I'm totally clean. I don't do anything.
Through the times I've gone through the last couple of weeks - and I'm still trying to help a friend - I got attacked pretty hard through the media, and it hurt and it was devastating, but I really found out who was with me and who was there for me.
I can't write my life story without Emmitt and Troy. They can't write their life stories without me. We're tied together forever. This is a day to remember for the rest of our lives.
I didn't always know, but I always wanted to. I always wanted to be the very best receiver the Cowboys ever had. That was my goal coming in as a rookie and my goal throughout my career: being the best they ever had, going up in the Ring of Honor.
I'm taking T.O., every day... He gives me the whole football field.
Most train to be part of the game. The greatest train to be the game: I am the game. Third-and-9, two-minutes left, that's what I train for. I train for moments everyone runs from. I run for them.
I understand people have doubts, but I'm totally clean.
I am not a player anymore.
