Quote

I was a keen sportsman, and became school captain in soccer and cricket.

I was a football fan before I became a rugby fan.

I started playing football young, and my career was on the pitch.

I'm a runner from sports. I've been a runner, but I wasn't a cross-country runner or anything like that. I played a lot of soccer growing up.

I played in three countries. I played in two World Series. But I never found anything to match the joy and the laughter those years with the Eagles brought me. The city and county loved us.

I've been playing American football since I was six years old. I was a captain of my high school team, playing strong safety.

I've learned to say, 'I'm a friend of Big Bird. He even taught me how to sound like him.'

In my youth I thought I was going to be a professional rugby player.

I was affectionately known as Bird Legs during high school.
