Jerry Rice Best Quotations

I think what you saw out there on the football field was an individual who really just loved the game. I was just like a little kid. I enjoyed the hard work and the dedication and the preparation I had to make to try to be one of the best receivers to ever play the game. The first 10 years, my wife and I, we never took a vacation.

I felt I came in and gave it my best shot and I still wanted to play. It didn't happen. I am still going to hold my head high and stay positive.

There is still a lot of football in me and I enjoy watching the players go out there and be the best players they can possibly be.

I'm just going to take it and try to make the best of it. I've got to show them I can handle what they're going to throw at me.

The Enemy of the best is the good. If you're always settling with what's good, you'll never be the best.

Over the years, probably since I left San Francisco (in 2000), this is one of my best camps. I know exactly what to do on the football field out there. I know what is expected of me every practice, going full bore and setting an example for the younger guys. I'm having a lot of fun.
