If I can't face my accusers, that's a joke. We did that in medieval times.

I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in winning my seven Tours since 1999.

Winning is about heart, not just legs. It's got to be in the right place.

Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.

I was always raised as a student first and an athlete second. I think that's the main purpose in college. Some athletes lose that perspective.

The nicknames - people say they couldn't understand it, but look, I have really enjoyed my time away from 3AW, and I have discovered one thing - that I am more than just a yelling fanatical football follower who makes up nicknames.

I've always prided myself on being a football player.

Football players should always remember there's a whole lot more to life.
