Who was your favorite non-football athlete to watch growing up?
Michael Jordan or Magic Johnson.
How about current athlete?
A-Rod, Derek Jeter, Alexander Ovechkin, Sidney Crosby, Roger Federer, Tiger Woods … guys that dominate their sport week in and week out. It's hard to get to that point and stay there. It's mind-boggling.
Who is the one person you'd like to trade places with for a day?

Quarterback. Everyone wants to be the quarterback.

Billie Jean (by Michael Jackson). I'd do the whole act. I'd probably get on TV because it'd be so terrible.

Pleasing Jesus.
