“I may be a successful football player, but I feel like such a failure.”
Tip: press → for another quote, C to copy, S to share.
You can lose a game but, I see guys every week including myself, you lose a game, it's a tough loss, you're down, two weeks later you forgot about it. You know it's amazing how down you were, but all of the sudden you're like it never happened.
But when you lose a family member or something tragic happens, that stays with you forever. You never get over it. Knowing that you have to deal with that for the rest of your life... Football is important, but not as important as you once thought it was.
In spite of reports about playing with various teams, I'm enjoying retirement with my family and have no plans to play football.
If I can change than anyone can change. I promise you that.
