For any athlete, you never can tell what's going to happen four years, five years down the road,
The sport was recently legalized in California, so I'm talking to some people about possibly fighting closer to home soon. We'll have to see what happens though. People in Hawaii are very excited about martial arts, and I think the sports is just starting to take off.
I think of the present digital/IT evolution happening in the global industry as the most exciting period I have ever witnessed. And somehow new ways of distribution will come into play but let's start with reopening the Chauvel for the independent filmmakers of Sydney and Australia. In the wealthiest city in Australia, can't we raise $250,000 or so to keep our film culture alive?
Story seems to say that everything happens for a reason and I want to say, No, it doesn’t.
I would have thought that I would have become one of those parents - just because it's my nature to be such a perfectionist - that anything falling short, I would have seen as a failure. But something has happened to me over the past few years - it's not Zen, believe me, I'm not at all Zen - but I'm so appreciative of even the chaos.
It goes to show that anything can happen in this sport. You just have to be ready for anything.
Then some guys just walk away and feel great. They lose 50 or 60 pounds. Hopefully I can join that group and not the other group.
It's something special. It's not just media hype. You can sense it with coaches and players. Then you get out into the community, and you realize what a huge game this is for both cities.
It went OK. I can't complain. I was out there, I was in pads and I finished practice.
It's different kinds of strengthening things. Some things that are more specific to strengthen the things around your back, things you don't think about. I'm just going to see how I feel after today's practice.
I'm most proud of the fact I carried myself on and off the field consistently for what the NFL stands for.
Just looking at society as a whole, there are a lot of different things that we are not doing as a group to make sure we are close. Everything is in transit. People are moving from place to place. You can have a neighbor you live next to for five years and never speak to, and nobody has a problem with that.
Dont forget, I was the soft, pudgy kid in school that everyone made fun of.
I think I was one of those kids that I might not fight you if you stepped on my shoes or stole my lunch money or that kind of stuff. But if you picked on a girl or something like that, that would cause me to rear up a little bit.
