We don't have quite as much money, quite as big of a weight room, quite as great athletes. But we're getting there.

Say what you will about pro athletes holding out for more money. Most shouldn't do it, but you've got to admit I had more of a right to than anyone. I was only making $380,000 a year. That's chump change. I could make that playing basketball in Turkey, or in the Major Indoor Lacrosse League. The Chargers know they were wrong. That's why they gave me a new contract.
