“When you hire a staff, there's probably half of the group that you hav...” — Sean Payton Quote

When you hire a staff, there's probably half of the group that you have experience with and the other half you don't. The key is getting staff guys, team guys, that aren't independent operators, and I think that really goes for any side of the ball or special teams.

I think players in our league can come from all different shapes and sizes when it comes to school size. They come from the East Coast, the West Coast.

A lot of people don't want to hire disabled actors. They think you're going to take twice as long over a shot, or they don't want have to put up a ramp for disabled access. They think, 'Why would I do that when I can just hire an able-bodied actor to play the disabled character?'

You want to do your job well so that people in the future say, 'OK, he's not bad, let's hire him.'
