We're in a leadership position in sports. People look up to the National Football League.
I don't expect to try to get people to like everything I do. I want them to respect what I do.
You have to continue to learn. That's how you develop. So the people who show that curiosity, that ambition, that willingness to do what it takes to improve and to get better, they're the people who are going to be successful in the long term.
No one is above the game or the rules that govern it. Respect for the game and the people who participate in it will not be compromised.
The draft is one of my favorite events because it is about football. People are focused on how their teams improve. It's a celebration of football. And most importantly, it represents a very important time in the lives of these men who are entering the NFL, and their families.
Too much of our society looks for people to fail.
