The Need To Be Cared For Is

Showing Weakness Will Encourage Your Opponents. It Inspires Them. It Encourages Them To Hit Harder. To Come Faster. But When You Don't Show Any Fear, Or When You Don't Show Any Hurt, You Have The Opportunity To Discourage Your Opponent. You Discourage Your Enemies. The Bottom Line Is, If You Think Properly, You Don't Even Have To Think About All Of That. All You Have To Think About Is That Guy Across From Me Is Human, And So Am I. And He'll Never Out-work Me. He'll Never Out-think Me. And If You Can't Out-work Me, And You Can't Out-think Me, You'll Never Beat Me.

I Could Run 200 Yards At A Stretch, I Could Duck Between Players, I Felt Free To Make Plays That Suited Me Best. It Wasn't Like Football Then And Basketball Today, Where Coaches Tell You What Foot To Put Down.

I Was Just A Big Guy Running Down With A Big, Deep Pocket And Little Short Stick Putting It Against My Chest.

I'm Not A Person That Really Deal In Color. I Recognize The Inequities That Certain Cultures Have To Go Through. I Understand The History Of Slavery And All Those Things. But I'm Not A Victim. I Can Vote, I Can Participant. I Can Invest My Money. I Can Invest My Time. And That's What I'm Doing. I'm Not Working For Anybody. I'm Not Making Any Money Doing What I'm Doing. I'm Doing It Because Someone Did It For Me.

Even Though The Money Is Great And The Fame Is Great, You Still Have A Lot Of Disenfranchised Young Men That Are Participating In The Nfl That Are Not Very Happy. A Lot Of Them Are Very Bitter. A Lot Them Are Very Angry. So Many Of Them Have Had No Fathers And No Home Life, And Basically, No Education.
