The reason I became a better player was because I came to Philly.
If you're from Philly and you're listening to this, please know that the rest of the world looks at Philly and they're jealous of your food. I promise. And if you're not from Philly, and you've never been here and you're thinking about coming somewhere to the East Coast, come to Philly and eat the food because the food. Is. Amazing.
Philly, I feel like, is where I became a man and matured my game and became better. I went through the good and the bad with my teammates and it taught me a lot. With the fans and all, it was a great experience.
I am pretty antisocial and have difficulty communicating with other human beings. I know that if I were in Philly I'd still mostly be hanging out in my apartment reading books and playing with synthesizers. That said, I grew up in Philly, went to college in Philly, lived in Philly afterwards for a while - almost every formative experience in my life has happened in Philly. Whether I like it or not, Philly is all over everything I do for the rest of my life.
Howard University - HoChi - they make the best Philly cheesesteak I've ever had - way better than Philly.
My biggest moments have been in Philly - I met Jay-Z and Beyonce in Philly, I did the Powerhouse in Philly.
Fear can be conquered. I became a better person and a better football player when I learned that lesson.
I came to Philly not only because of the quality of the team and the organization, but also the fans, the passion - it's really palpable in that city.
There's no reason why a player is done at 33, 34. They train better, they eat better, they drink better. This isn't the old days when everybody sat around and drank beer.
People leave United and tend to drift out of the game. I actually think I became a better player and a better person. I proved a lot of doubters wrong.
I like to try to learn from my past and be a better person because of it. Better player, better teammate. Better everything.
That was very appreciative because all the players vote for that. That's the highest award anyone can get in the NFL. Every team in the NFL votes for the most valuable player. I was injured. I had appendicitis the first part of the season, but I came back after ten days. Nobody came back that early. No player wants to sit on the bench. No player wants to be inactive. Everybody wants to play.I came back in ten days. I had the uniform on and played. I played those next games until I got kicked in the head.
I get my swag from Philly. I get my hustle from Philly. I get my work ethic from Philly.
I'm an Atlanta guy. I think Philly knows that. But I've adopted Philly as my second home, and they've embraced me.
I'm not from Philly - I'm from South Jersey, but we still consider that the Philly area.
I wanted to be a soccer player, and I became the best of the best, the number one, better than Maradona, better than Pele, and even better than Messi - but only at night, nighttime, during my dreams. When I wake up, I realized that I have wooden legs and that I'm doomed to be a writer.
The reason I became a Christian is the same reason I became a conservative: I paid attention.
