If we identify another nation as the source of the bombing, we should retaliate,

There are, to our surprise, thousands of people still in the city that we're trying to identify and locate. We're trying to convince them there's nothing for them here — no food, no jobs, nothing to let them live the way they're used to.

That was very distasteful to me, to retaliate so to speak like that (against the Vikings). I do believe the commissioner should look into these kind of clauses. We work so hard on trying to gain labor peace and a new collective bargaining agreement and then we as clubs allow agents to get cute and circumvent it. On the playing field there are rules and there are unwritten rules about how the game should be played in the spirit and the fairness of it all. It doesn't make sense to me that we had to lose such a fine football player this way. I was surprised by the ruling.

That was very distasteful, our having to jump into something like that and retaliate, so to speak. I was very surprised that the special master came back with the ruling he did. It doesn't make any sense to me. But he did. And we lost a very fine football player.

If you keep on retaliating what you receive, you'll be stuck in a infinite abyss of revenge and vendetta.

as a forum to retaliate at all the wrong injustices that had been done towards me and towards a lot of my teammates -- and I just went a little too far.
