00:00 I've been asked many times why did I choose football, what drew me to the game, and I
00:15 never have an answer that gets it right.
00:19 The best way I can explain it is what draws you to your favorite song, your favorite book.
00:25 It's what it makes you feel.
00:28 The seriousness of it, the intensity of it.
00:32 Stepping on the field was the most alive and free I had ever felt.
00:37 There was a visceral feeling with football unlike any other sport.
00:41 The hairs on my arms would stand up.
00:45 I could hit somebody, run around like a crazed lunatic, and then get told good job.
00:53 I love football.
00:54 Whether it was in my backyard with my brother, on the playground with my friends, or shooting
01:03 up on Friday nights at Cleveland Heights High School.
01:06 I loved everything about it.
