I did enjoy football, but the injury factor for me, you know, I had so many issues. I don’t know how long my career would’ve been.  (Football Injuries Quotes) In England, it’s a rare thing to see a player smoking but, all in all, I prefer that to an alcoholic.

It weakens the body, which becomes more susceptible to injury  (Football Injuries Quotes) The truth is, what Americans enjoy about football is much of what makes the sport dangerous. However, I believe there must be a way to find the art of success and vitality in football, without the driving the level of impact that causes serious risk of head trauma, paralysis and other life-changing injuries  (Football Injuries Quotes) I went to Dartmouth College, graduated, and had the opportunity to play two professional sports - I played for the New England Patriots in the NFL and professional lacrosse for the Boston Blazers. I had an injury, so I had to stop so I could heal. But when I was playing football, I wasn’t making a lot of money; I wasn’t a superstar  (Football Injuries Quotes) After I hurt the knee, football wasn’t nearly as much fun. I was limited. But you make do with what you have. I adjusted some. I was lucky to play as long as I did, with the different kinds of injuries I got. I played with two severed hamstring muscles in my leg late in my career. I could barely run, other than to drop back to pass  (Football Injuries Quotes) As a football player, you just deal with injuries. It’s all part of the football game. I’ve dealt with injuries as much as everybody else. People have dealt with worse injuries than I’ve dealt with. It’s all part of the game, all part of getting that tackle  (Football Injuries Quotes) I played pretty darn competitive-level hockey. Then the good old knee injury. Obviously, it’s a blessing in disguise, but growing up Canadian, that’s our religion, that’s our football.  (Football Injuries Quotes) Look at football, where you still have injuries no matter how much they improve the helmets and other equipment.  (Football Injuries Quotes) To recognize that head injuries were as essential a part of football as they are of boxing would be to erase the fine distinction on which the game’s respectability rested.  (Football Injuries Quotes) If you play football, there’s going to be a 100 percent injury rate. Something is going to be bothering you. So I just try to focus on the things that I can do to help my team.  (Football Injuries Quotes) I’m glad that I just played baseball, because I’m sure I had a much longer baseball career than I would’ve had a football career. I did miss football, but I didn’t miss some of the injuries from football.  (Football Injuries Quotes) I’ve done a lot of work in the gym preparing myself for what is certain to be pretty strenuous pre-season training - something I’ve not previously experienced. And I knocked local football on the head this winter, simply to ensure I didn’t pick up any injuries.  (Football Injuries Quotes)
