We play a violent sport.
We don't just want to win the Super Bowl, we want to make a dynasty. I want to be a player who makes that a reality.
To be the highest-paid running back ever is quite an honor.
The key thing with any football player is, what can he do when he gets on the field.
One thing I've been doing since I was a little kid and that's score touchdowns so if somebody needs somebody to get in the red zone and do some work, I could probably still do that pretty well.
My two favorite movies are 'Coming to America' and 'Boomerang'.
My favorite sports movies, I like 'Remember the Titans' and 'Hoosiers' Jimmy Chitwood, from the corner.
Medicine's good for some people. Not for me.
If I could have anybody I haven't had, I'd want to interview somebody like Jay-Z or Puff Daddy, pick their minds a little bit.
I'm healthy and excited to play. And I think this year can be a big year for me if I get the opportunity. I can still play the game. I think I can help a team get to the Super Bowl.
I told Clinton I want him to rush for 2,000 yards. And I want our team to go to the Super Bowl and win it. I've been there and not won it. It's really simple for me. You get stats, fame and fortune, but if you don't end up with the ring you're never satisfied.
I think when you're winning, your uniforms are cool.
I think there will be more smiles when the smoke clears.
I think that it won't be long before a team calls that says, 'Just go do what you do'.
I think people will say, 'You know what? That Shaun Alexander, he did all right when he was here.
I grew up loving Walter Payton. My dad used to always show us film of him.
I am a better running back every time I step on the field. I try to get better each game, each summer, each season.
I always play every game like my back is against the wall, that this could be it.
For me, you've got to play football first. We're not trying to be accountants. The money takes care of itself. That's kind of how I think anyway.
Everyone knows me and my wife's story. We didn't have sex until we got married.
Do I think I can take 20 carries now? Well, I think finally last week and this is week was probably the first time I could probably say, yeah, I could take 20 carries and go do some damage.
After the smoke clears, I think people will say, 'You know what? That Shaun Alexander, he did all right when he was here. I think there will be more smiles when the smoke clears.
If I could have one superpower, I'd want to have the power of mind over matter. I'd want to be able to move things and people with my mind.
I am ready. I'm in great shape. My workouts have been great. I'm ready to get back and help a team get to the Super Bowl.
Time heals all wounds, unless you pick at them.
