The part I always hated, ... was when a guy doesn't actually tackle you. He just props you up, so other guys can come in and get free shots. That's what really takes it out of you.

When people say 'love to hate', they actually mean 'love to be appalled by' - if they truly hated them, they'd never repeat a catch phrase.

I really like when I tackle someone. When I tackle someone I feel good about it,

It makes me feel resilient when you tackle different things.

Part of why Tony is so hard to tackle is that he's a big guy and you don't know what to expect. Sometimes he'll make a move and go by you or sometimes he'll try to run you over. As a defender, he keeps you guessing. I guess I have to accept being run over sometimes.

It's so complicated, it's simple. You must tackle the guy. You've got to get the posse around him and get as many people to the ball as you can. That's the secret.
