I am basically turning football players into sprinters for a while. When we first talked about it, I didn't know how my expertise could be used.
I love college football and I love pro football. This is how fair-weathered I am. I used to be a Giants fan, but my son who's turning 12 has really gotten into football, and he likes the Jets, so I totally jumped ships so we can root for the same team.
A lot of sprinters aren't football players. I'm a football player. That's the difference between me and a sprinter. My knowledge of the game. I'm totally different than any other track guy.
Some media used to talk about video games only to say how violent or addictive they could be. With 'Heavy Rain,' they talked about the story of the game and the emotions they felt while playing.
We are making a little portion of their brains be sprinters; they are 100 percent football players, but for these purposes, they must learn the proper way to run.
Those who know Neymar know his great quality and how special he is. And I insist again, we have to take care of players like that; they illuminate football. It's players like him that make football have any sense.
Nobody I ever broke bread with - and I see players all the time - talked about using their head running the football. I've seen Barry Sanders and Eric Dickerson and Marcus Allen and Franco Harris, and we've all been together - we were all together at the Super Bowl - and no one talked about using their head.
Nobody I ever broke bread with, and I see players all the time, talked about using their head running the football.
The interesting thing was we never talked about pottery. Bernard [Leach] talked about social issues; he talked about the world political situation, he talked about the economy, he talked about all kinds of things.
Players lose you games, not tactics. There's so much crap talked about tactics by people who barely know how to win at dominoes.
Perception is a big thing in football and people need to be more careful about how they choose to perceive young players in the first instance.
I am a footballer. I know how to play football ,and I know how to manage projects in the area of football. This is what I want to limit myself to.
I always say that, I never talked about the NBA, I never talked about anything because I was just playing basketball for fun. I didn't think about being a professional and I didn't even know you could be signed.
It is clear that if people know me through football, they would think I am one of the most hated players in football, that is clear.
I am more mature now and know how to deal with certain situations in football. It's not all about highs; there are also lows, but I can deal with it. Football is a hard business.
You find sprinters testing other sprinters' mental capability. But these are my good friends on the track. I don't think we need to do that.
People sometimes focus on the red button hot topic issues and I'm, like, you know, who cares about priestly celibacy? I'm thinking about how am I forgiving my enemies? How am I turning the other cheek? How am I loving my neighbor as myself? To me that's 10,000 times more difficult than to say should priests be married or not be married? I'm, like, I think we're wasting all out energies on the wrong thing. Let's work on the most difficult stuff.
