I hope they appreciate me, because we just brought a championship home. One for the Thumb! |
I look at it like it'll last forever. But I know it has to come to an end. If this is it, then I want to enjoy it. |
I played this game to win a championship. I?m a champion and I think the last stop is here, in Detroit. |
I really did not want to put pressure in his mind to do anything out of the ordinary. |
I really don't have it figured out yet. I want to do some television work but it depends on what opportunities are there, football related. Right now everything is an option. |
I really think it is great that my mother and my father are able to capture a moment for themselves. Thirteen years following me around this great country of ours, they deserve it. |
I still think I can get it done. I still think I can play this game. |
I think he understands he doesn't have to win the game. I think last year he'd be the first one to tell you he was of the thought I have to win the football game. He just needs to make the plays he's supposed to make, and we'll win the football game as a result of that. |
I think I'd be pretty good. I'd be challenging some of the better guys on the tour, like Walter Ray Williams. |
I think it's been my work ethic. I've just been a hard worker, a guy that's always trying to be positive and put a positive swing on things sometimes even in the darkest moments. And I think people can relate to that being a blue-collar guy. My game is a blue-collar game. Three yards and a cloud of dust and get up and do it again. That's the way in the Midwest, especially Detroit, which is a very, very blue-collar town. I think people relate to that, as well as Pittsburgh. |
I think the biggest thing was understanding what we are going into. I think not playing in a dome for so many years, it really rattled us. We understood it was going to be loud and you can't do anything about it but play through it. |
I think the biggest thrill I've had is seeing guys and girls and kids and grandmothers and grandfathers wearing my 36 jersey. That's an honor for me because you can pick anybody's jersey to wear. |
I think we've learned from the mistakes of the past, and we haven't been overconfident, taking anybody for granted. I think that's because of the position we were in, working our way up from the bottom. Everybody is supposed to beat us. It's us against the world. |
I think, right now, Ben already is the face of this team. I don't think I'm the face of this team; I'm a co-star right now. I'm riding on the bus this time. |
I thought it all added up when Super Bowl 36 was at our doorstep. It was the AFC championship and it was in New Orleans, Super Bowl 36. It didn't happen. |
