Everyone knows someone who is struggling with a mental health issue, whether it's depression, trauma or substance abuse. It affects everyone, so we all have a stake in making sure good treatment is available.
The one thing you have to address with Randy Moss is not a conditioning thing. It's not an age thing. It needs to be addressed. I believe it's the elephant in the room. It's that thing called quit. And Randy, not like any other superstar I've met, he has more quit in him than any of those other players.
Don't get me wrong, I would love to be voted into the Hall of Fame. But if I don't get in, that's not the end of the world. I am surrounded by my loved ones, and being with them, going through this journey with them, makes me extremely happy.
Joe Montana had bad games in the playoffs against the Giants and Chicago Bears; that doesn't stop us from considering him as possibly the best.
You have to understand, it takes a lot of qualities to play linebacker - quickness, tackling ability and sheer force - so you just can't take someone from another position and think they could all of a sudden handle that role.

Ronnie Lott - he got a really good shot on me once and I learned that unless I wanted to shorten my career, I needed to steer clear of his path.
I don't think Joey Harrington is good enough to be a starting quarterback in the NFL.
It's not as if I dislike Michigan. I have a lot of respect for the university - not only the athletic department but how they educate young people. The only reason I dislike them is because they are the No. 1 rival for OSU.
Advocating for quality addiction treatment has become a passion, and it's the most rewarding thing that someone like me can do. People were there to help me when I needed it, so I've made it my goal to pay it forward.
Michael Strahan should get the amount of money that anybody else in the league is getting. I don't care if it is a quarterback, wide receiver, defensive lineman, linebacker. He should make the kind of money Brett Favre, Marshall Faulk make, because he's that type of player.
Bill Romanowski was one of the most feared players to play, not only because of his intensity, but because he played through the whistle and after the whistle.
Larry Fitzgerald, I've spent so much time with him, he's one of my favorites and one of the best.
