But when he's on the field he plays his ass off.

Bill and I have a rule. If a guy needs the sizzle, he's not for us.

I've seen every range of emotion. From being physically threatened when I was in Cleveland, to grown men crying in my office, to people completely understanding it and thanking me, and thanking us for the opportunity. It's the full spectrum.

Bill's program is very demanding, very time-consuming, very energy-consuming. If a player has a lot of distractions in his personal life that manifest in their professional life, he is going to have difficulty succeeding in Bill's program.
