A Quote by Joe Thomas
Even though you wouldn't want to line a D-lineman and running back up across from each other to block, when you get help initially from the guard, and then the defensive tackle gets picked up by the running back, it's not as bad as a lot of people would think versus if you're just putting that matchup on paper.

We tried so hard. We were always trying to help each other. But not because we were helpless. He needed to get things for me, just as I needed to get things for him. It gave us purpose. Sometimes I would ask him for something that I did not even want, just to let him get it for me. We spent our days trying to help each other help each other. I would get his slippers. He would make my tea. I would turn up the heat so he could turn up the air conditioner so I could turn up the heat.
I meet a lot of characters in the
islands, people who're running -- who're
happier on a fishing boat than they
are back home.When I first got
down there,I don't know if I was

would make me feel better.But
since I've been spending time in
the Caribbean, I've come to realize
that I've got nothing to run from.

Getting 1,000 yards in the NFL is an amazing accomplishment, and being the first rookie ever for the Giants to do that is even a bigger one.

I want to be an athlete. I'm not just a running back. I play the running back position.
