You name me a Super Bowl that had a pacifistic defense, and I'll give you my paycheck. I'm serious. There aren't any.
I've had quite a few plays where I've just dominated the guy across from me.
A lot of these defensive linemen, they're real whirling dervishes - they do all these fancy moves.
I really wanted to be the biggest, baddest guy - not to mess with anybody, just so nobody would mess with me.
Look at the old Packers - those guys were mean. Reggie White would say, 'Here comes Jesus,' and then he'd club you into next week.
I've always just tried to be a guy who will lead by example, and I feel like if something has to be said, I will say it.
As a parent, you just want to really make sure your kids understand what you are trying to say as much as their maturity level will allow them to.
You're not going to change me. I love being me.
Nobody wants to stay in Green Bay and run laps in the snow and go boxing in the gym. Everybody has what works for them, and I feel as though this works for me - it keeps me hungry, it keeps me with that edge. Other guys get a hard day's work in, but they're on the beach afterward.
When we're on the football field, it's me vs. him. Maybe it's me vs. two of them. Maybe it's me vs. three of them. It's a fight. And you have to take that fighter's mentality out there.
In 'Dragon Ball,' the characters have a challenge. They know they have to push their bodies to the limit in their training so they can make sure to defeat their opponent, much like professional football players.
You can't run a team with one leader. You need multiple leaders.
I got into the weights because I didn't want anybody messing with me. I wanted people to say, 'Oh, he's so big, I don't want to mess with him.' And second of all, I wanted to be great at football. I wanted to be the baddest dude around because I knew what it was like to not be.
I'm not going to get any taller, so I might as well get as strong and lean as I possibly can be.
I used to get hollered at for benching too much.
I always feel as though I've made a significant improvement after every training session. It's never S-O-S, same old stuff. It's always something new.
Be yourself and work as hard as you can. Don't let anybody influence you to not be yourself.
I can honestly tell you, I can look at the things I did in high school, and I can see how they positively affect me today.
When I was in high school, I wasn't thinking about getting a scholarship. I was thinking about trying to go and dominate. Same thing in college. I just have to focus on playing the best football I can.
Embrace the fact that you are different... Don't think you're alone. Embrace it. Love it.
