“As a former NFL player, I am one American who will have nothing to do with any NFL Team that cannot find the corporate courage to stand for the millions of courageous past great Americans whose sacrifice gave meaning to our flag and national anthem and to the millions upon millions who still dream to come to its free shores.”

“We need to step up because our past generations did their jobs; we now need to do ours.”

“In the decades since my youth, I've witnessed the explosion of fatherless families and an exponential increase in illiteracy and crime.”

“Let us celebrate the transformative power of sports and its unique ability to instill intuition, conviction, and courage into women and girls across our nation.”

“To see what is right and not to do it is want of courage, or of principle.”

“I actually learned that you should never give up, and if you love something, take courage and absolutely go after it.”
