Warren Moon Racial Quotations

I think all the guys that have played in the game before me as African- Americans have to share in this a little bit.

But it is significant because it is the first and I think whenever there is a first it is significant.

I think this will be significant also. It shows we have arrived at the pinnacle of our sport.

I don't want to make this a racial thing, but it's significant. I am very, very deeply honored to be involved with the rest of these guys in this great fraternity.
