I've always been like that since I was a kid. I felt bad not going to school ? I had to be really, really, really sick.

I think I was real raw at the time. I had played college, but in college I had three or four position coaches. I don't know that I necessarily had specific training at the linebacker position that would help me.

If anything would happen to me, he wouldn't allow me to cry about it. He just said, 'You're all right. Walk it off.' So, when you have that embedded in you, that builds you to be the person that you are.
