A Quote by Brian Urlacher

I wondered if teams were going to find a place for me, but the Bears said linebacker right away. I tried outside linebacker first and I was terrible. Then inside seemed to fit me.

I've tried to bring the mentality of the outside linebacker to the inside and the rough, tough style of an inside linebacker to the outside. The middle linebacker always has been known as kind of a big plugger. Outside guys are known to be able to run. I just try to make big plays wherever I am.

Junior Seau

It really doesn't matter to me whether it's defensive end or linebacker. I just want to play the game of football. I've been working on linebacker drills since I got out to Fischer Sports in Phoenix.

Gaines Adams

I prefer safety. That's what I've played my whole life, but if the team needs me to play linebacker, then I'll do it.

Eric Reid

Coach Clune has been a great person to me, he taught me a lot, linebacker-wise.

Bobby Wagner

If I'm out wide, and they put a linebacker on me, I think that's a mismatch every time, regardless of who is on me.

Zach Ertz

As far as my athletic ability, I can pretty much do it all. You can put me at linebacker and I'll do a good job.

Peyton Hillis

I'm used to going out amongst giants and being the smallest linebacker.

Rohan Marley

I was then at the height of my two-facedness: that is, outside I seemed one way, inside I was another; outside false, inside true.

I’ve tried that. I’ve tried aspirin, too. Rusty thinks I should smoke marijuana, and I did for a while, but it only makes me giggle. What I’ve found does the most good is just to get into a taxi and go to Tiffany’s. It calms me down right away, the quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there, not with those kind men in their nice suits, and that lovely smell of silver and alligator wallets. If I could find a real-life place that made me feel like Tiffany’s, then I’d buy some furniture and give the cat a name.

Truman Capote

It seemed to me that NASA, especially Goddard, was the place where I could carry out the dreams that I had, which were to push forward an experiment that would measure the big bang radiation better than anyone had ever tried before. Therefore, it seemed like the perfect place to go.

John C. Mather

It would be fun if I were 40 pounds heavier and a little bit faster to get in and play some linebacker.

Adam Vinatieri

Frankly, kicking was just an extra thing that I did. I guess most people remember that I was also a quarterback. But how many people remember that I was a linebacker and a cornerback when I broke into pro ball with the Chicago Bears? I was around when you had to go both ways.

George Blanda

High school was hard for me. I tried really hard to fit in and said the things I thought people wanted to hear. But I was unsure of myself. I was self-conscious, and I didn't really know my place or where I fit in.

Meaghan Rath

Puma was a great fit for me. Obviously, they were looking for someone that was going to fit their brand, and I was looking to wear stuff that was going to fit me and not where I was going to go out and just blend in with everyone else. So it's been a great fit.

Rickie Fowler

First of all, I was a good Christian kid. My mom and dad taught me never to fight. So I never fought. The other kids picked that up right away. They said, 'Oh, he's not going to try to do anything.' They'd push me, shove me, hit me. I'd just stand there and take it.
