“That's the fun part of it all. You get creative when you're in Little League. You're creative when you're in middle school. You're creative in high school and college. And then when you get to the league, this position, the more mobile quarterbacks, we have a tendency to want to become traditional and nervous and panicky in how we want to call plays and put guys in position to make plays.” WantLittlesPlaySchoolGuyFunCreativityCreativeMiddlePositionCollegeHigh SchoolTraditionalTendenciesNervousLeagueMobileQuarterbackMiddle SchoolLittle League Author:Kordell Stewart
“I was never on a mission to be an NFL quarterback. I wanted to be a good high school player, and I worked hard at that. That made me good enough to play in college and then I wanted to be a good college quarterback. During college I played well enough to make it into the NFL. I never took it for granted and really wanted to play hard at each level and I have always had a lot of fun doing what I wanted to do.” WellsMadeHardEnoughPlayWantedSchoolFunLevelsPlayerCollegeHigh SchoolMissionsGrantedNflGood EnoughQuarterbackPlay HardGood CollegeGood High School Author:Peyton Manning
“As much as I'd like to think I'm an expert in quarterbacks I'm probably not. But, I think college quarterbacks are put in positions where they have to do a lot of the things that are done at the professional level. The collegiate quarterback probably does on average a little more running than a pro quarterback. But outside of that, I think they're faced with some of the same difficult decisions and choices.” ThinkingLittlesDoeDoneRunningChoicesDifficultDecisionLevelsPositionCollegeAverageExpertsNflQuarterbackDifficult Decisions Author:Ted Thompson
“When I started playing music at East Tennessee State University I would sit on a stool with a tip jar in front of me and play four hours a night at a college bar called Quarterback's Barbecue. I wasn't thinking about doing it for a living. I was just making enough money to go to Taco Bell every day. People were eating chips, drinking beer and not listening to me. I'd had three or four years of people ignoring me, and I'd kind of gotten used to it.” PeopleThinkingYearsKindStatesEnoughPlayUsedNightThreeHoursFourFrontsCollegeListeningEatingDrinkingUniversityEastBarsBeerFour YearsBellsChipsJarsPlaying MusicQuarterbackTennesseeBarbecueDrinking BeerStoolsTacosTaco BellIgnore MeEast Tennessee Author:Kenny Chesney
