I said 'We've got to go before something bad happens,'

We probably learned the ins and outs of (the 46 defense) in two days, but it took about 10 years to really put it into action,

I think that was when dad first realized how serious my twin brother and myself were of learning the business, ... I think he realized then that we knew a lot more about football than he had thought.

A lot was going to be expected of him. If he's ready to go, it takes time. He'll just be getting mental reps instead of the physical reps.

If you're going to have an injury, [the first day is] the day to get it. Then it gives you time to heal. It's really unfortunate, but that's what happens in this game. Hopefully everything will work out where he's back with us shortly, and we'll just move on.

The sound of animals howling for their owners and the sight of drowning pets will haunt me the rest of my life.
