I Was Kicked Out Of School One

I Blew The College Boards, And To Ease The Snub From Harvard Made A Tour Of Europe.

Life Is Great, Football Is Better.

My Father Always Used To Say ‘treat Everyone As A Gentleman; Not Because They Are, But Because You Are.’

My Dad Hated His Job. He Sold Overcoats, But He Wanted To Make Movies. He Had A Failed Career Working With The Ritz Brothers - They Were Like The Marx Brothers, Only A Tier Below. I Always Had A Picture In My Mind Of Him In A Straw Hat.

I Have Loved Football As An Almost Mythic Game Since I Was In The Fourth Grade. To Me, The Game Wasn't Even Grounded In Reality. The Uniform Turned You Into A Warrior. Being On A Team, The Mythology Of Physical Combat, The Struggle Against The Elements, The Narrative Of The Game.
