    I loved every minute on the field and still like watching the game, but the NFL is a terrible organization and if I had kids I don’t think I’d want them subject to all the concussions I got over the years.

      Yeah. I loved playing football, but knowing what I do now I have a very different perspective on the game. I was very good, and probably could have gotten a full-ride scholarship prettu easily if I hadn’t quit for stupid reasons, but now I think my juvenile self may have accidentally made a great call.
