The World Motivation
Toward the end of my career, people started talking Hall of Fame, but still, you don't ever think you're going to end up there.

I played defense, so I don't like when guys celebrate with dances and stuff.
Yeah during the bye week I watch games. I usually do something with my family. We'll go away for a couple of days or something, but I definitely watch football on that Sunday afternoon.
Jay Cutler is a first-round pick, had a great arm, etc. It's just - he's offense, I'm defense. We didn't get a chance to interact as much as we should have, maybe.
My whole career, I was pretty much bald. So, people just got to know me as being a bald guy.
The last time I heard real screaming in the theatre was when I went to see a movie I did years ago, called 'Wait Until Dark.' Now, my mother was the least emotional person on the planet, but when I got killed in the movie, she stood up and screamed, 'That's my son!' At Radio City Music Hall in New York!
I feel like every Hall of Famer who has been here and has a plaque had so many of those moments that they had to overcome to achieve something and appreciate their career.
Is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame that important to me? No. Is it something I've aspired towards? No.
I don't dance like I used to, but I'm moving and I'll be doing my form of dance at Town Hall... I hit my limitations but I learn to work with what I've got.
What happens also is that a lot of those people and reporters who vote for Hall of Famers, some of the people who were around when Ray Guy was around, are deceased. And some of the reporters don't remember Ray Guy. He should have been in the Hall of Fame 15 years ago.
