When I first came in the league, I thought Jack Clark and Steve Garvey were big. Then all of sudden it seemed like everyone was that big.
We've changed a lot of things to help certain groups of people. We widened the lane from 6 feet to 12 feet to 16 feet to make it so the big guys aren't as dominant. Well, why didn't we just say, 'You've got to learn to play against them in the post?'
I was always quite technical as a player, but when you are the size I am, if you are crap in the air, it is going to look bad.
I'm a lot bigger than a lot of these DBs.
Absolutely, there's still a place for smaller guards. This is the time for it, really. You can't hand check, you can get your space wherever you want, plus you can create your own opportunities.
I've seen some players with very big feet ... and some with very small feet.
This league is getting big. We have way more 300-pound guys than ever before. That's not to say all the people in athletics who have died are 300-pound guys. There are so many different reasons.
You can't get big in hockey. You need to be pliable... they've even taken fighting out of the game, so there's no more of those big huge guys who just fight.
Guys are just too fast and too big in the NFL.
I'm about the size of a cornerback, maybe a free safety.
It's just using my size. On the defensive end, it's using my length to disturb the smaller guys. On the offensive end, if there's a post-up advantage, I can take it.
For as long as I remember, big men have dominated the NBA.
I know people say you have to be big and strong to play in the Premier League, but you cannot just judge a player by their size. You have to look at their other qualities, too.
I like to play against strikers and think that, from my size alone, I'm more of a central defender.
The problem with trading dominant players of that size is you never get in return what you've bargained away.
My game hasn't changed too much. I'm doing the same things as I did in college, except I'm outside more. It's tough to go inside in the pros because the players are bigger.
People said I'm too big to play football.
My size works against me as well, as some players I would just touch and they would fall over to get a free kick.
