Initially, I know that I handled it worse than she did and I think partly because I’ve always been… every bit of adversity I’ve faced up until the last year and a half is adversity...

I can’t believe I survived, not only my life, but I am still playing football ’cause half of those eight or nine years I don’t even remember.

I’m thankful for all the things that this job has given me and my family. But probably the thing that I am most proud of throughout my career is that, not only myself, but my...

As you get older, you look at things differently.

You’re only as good as your last pass.

I consider adversity being good sometimes, you know.

You know I used to listen to music a lot more.

The party now is having my kids laugh and my wife laugh and my teammates. I want them to see me have fun and put it in a different way.

My intention… isn’t to create controversy.

It’s been six years since I have had a drink and I have two girls, and my priorities are a lot different now and I just can’t believe I was that guy. And I would...

That’s kind of how I approach life and football; why dwell on something that’s hasn’t happened.

It’s not so much about killing an animal, it’s being at peace and you don’t have to worry about all the other things that go on. That’s a couple of hours a week that you...

I like my teammates.

I don’t really care what’s going on I just care about getting my job done the best that I can possibly do and deal with the other things in my life that take a lot...

Injuries obviously change the way you approach the game.

In the NFL a lot of times everyone gets caught up in the business side of things. For them it’s all about money and it really leaves a sour taste in your mouth.

I’m pretty boring really.

Every game I’ve ever played, regardless if it was pre-season or Super Bowl, meant the same to me, and I laid it all on the line.

There was a time when all I cared about was the next game, the next party, the next tee time.

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...

I think the 16 years that I spent in Green Bay speaks for itself.

So much of a professional athlete’s success depends upon not necessarily the play itself but how he deals with… always saying how you deal with good, is just as important as how you deal with...

I know it’s not a one man team win or lose.

Sometimes you get caught up in what’s going on around you. The reality is that you are just a regular person. At some point, the career will be over, the bright lights turn off. That...

It’s been a wonderful career, I couldn’t ask for anything more.

If you grew up in a household with a football coach who looks like a drill sergeant, you would think you would be tough.

I accomplished so many things, so early in my career.

God, he deals you blows that at sometimes you think you can’t handle and in the last year there have been things that we thought we couldn’t handle but we’ve dealt with it up until...

I, most talented players don’t always succeed. Some don’t even make the team. It’s more what’s inside.

You have to play with the mentality that you are about to lose your job, and that they’re going to talk about ‘The Other Guy’ first. You have to think, ‘I want my name mentioned...

Wisconsin’s a special place.

I don’t worry anymore about where’s the big hangout Tuesday night, Friday. Couldn’t tell you and no one comes to me for advice anymore in those areas anymore, so real boring I would say.

The way I played the game, the way I live my life, is very emotional.

I’ve seen a lot of people jump on and off my bandwagon.

I don’t need to have a retirement, retire your jersey, all that stuff to solidify my career.

As a coach, they would love to sit there and say, ‘It’s going to be five steps, you’re going to hitch up into a perfect pocket, you’re going to look at number one – no;...

I consider myself more of a loner now and I think when you get older, especially in this game, and just talking with other players who have come and gone, I see what they were...

It’s a difficult job to do, but that is why we do it. Only so many people can do it. But it, it enables you to… for a brief period of time to kind of...

Every day is not perfect.

Maybe I’m old-school, but I always thought you honor a contract.

I grew up a Saints fan, an hour from the Superdome.

I may be a successful football player, but I feel like such a failure.

I love doing what I do.

Just, you never know what the next day is going to bring. That goes for football, goes for off the field, and I gave up a long time ago trying to predict the future and...

I think my stubbornness, hardheadedness and stupidity is what has allowed me to play for 20 years.

Well I would say that we’re regular people first of all and we’re normal and it’s obvious by some of the things that have happened just because our name is famous we’re not immune to...

In my situation, unlike some players who retire because they have no choice – either teams don’t want them or injuries have caused them to retire, and they just can’t do it – for me,...

In this case, I realize that, unlike when I was 22 years old, I realize now that football will not go on forever, it is a small part of your life.

I know I’m not doing myself any favors by continuing to play.

Nothing, for the most part, surprises me anymore.
