When he reflects back upon his life, I hope he doesn't wish that he had more time to break down film, but more time to spend with his children.

It’s a indictment of pro football that the only successes (and many of the failures) are family-abandoning, tape-eating maniacs.
Kinda tempers the enjoyment of the sport, like CTE.
