If you got anything to you at all as an athlete and a competitor, you don't care what the circumstances are. You still got competition.

No matter how much you've won, no matter how many games, no matter how many championships, no matter how many Super Bowls, you're not winning now, so you stink.

There is winning and there is misery.

I don't have to make examples out of players to establish my own place. I don't feel like I have to.
