Street football features all the basics of football: you get a lot of touches on the ball, it is fast, teaches you to think quickly and to be creative.
In hindsight, that time out of football gives you the hunger to want to get back to basics and play football.
As a kid, I played my share of football in the street or in a vacant lot. When we were playing in the street, it was more touch football, so we didn't hit each other into cars.
Football teaches you hard work. It takes a lot of unspectacular preparation to have spectacular results in both business and football.
You can score goals at youth level but men's football teaches you things. It teaches you real football and you realise that this game is sink or swim.
Football is actually pretty limited and there are only really four phases: When you have the ball yourself, when the opponent has the ball and when you win the ball or lose the ball. That is football, really, there isn't more to it.
If you want to play dominant football, you need to get the ball, think fast, and play quick combinations in small spaces.
We didn't have football boots, and we used a broken tennis ball instead of a football. I didn't use a proper ball until I was 11.
The street is where we all learn. I played organized football growing up as well, but when that was over, I went right to the street. I remember twisting my ankles, breaking my thumb, I hurt everything when I was little playing street ball.
Football can change really quickly; you really are king for a day. Once you get caught up with things and think you've arrived... you've never arrived in football.
I play a lot of football, watch a lot of football, and think about football.
Dennis is something special. We are talking a lot about exciting football, and Dennis Bergkamp, I think, started with attractive football a long time ago. He was one of these players. A lot of the things he did as a football player you can compare to art.
Rebounding helps a lot with your ball skills, because you're able to go get the ball at a high point, which is what they want you to do in football.
I think you have to have a high football IQ. Obviously, you have to have the physical ability to run fast and get open. But you also have to have a high football IQ.
I think first and foremost, you've got to be able to run the football to be successful in college football. Some teams have thrown the ball 60 times a game and had success doing that. But I think you've got to be able to run the football to have success.
There are a lot of guys who football is all they have. And I love football to death, it got me here, it's what I've been doing since I was nine years old, but football ends at a point in time and you've got to be prepared for life after football.
There are several differences between a football game and a revolution. For one thing, a football game usually lasts longer and the participants wear uniforms. Also, there are usually more casualties in a football game. The object of the game is to move a ball past the other team's goal line. This counts as six points. No points are given for lacerations, contusions, or abrasions, but then no points are deducted, either. Kicking is very important in football. In fact, some of the more enthusiastic players even kick the ball, occasionally.
