Jim Kiick Quotations

We both mellowed out and realized we were part of it. Without the two of us, who knows? We feel we were a big part of winning the Super Bowl and going 17-0.

He was the first one to hug me.

I think it is better for Indianapolis. They have a lot of pressure taken off of them. Now they can concentrate on going to the Super Bowl and winning.

I wish I could speak to him more often. He more or less has gone in his own direction. He has gotten away from football. He enjoys hunting and fishing. He has a new life, and that's what he enjoys.

We don't root for them to lose. We're not bitter old men, like some people make us out to be, but we're proud of our accomplishment. You can't beat perfection -- you can only equal it. If the Colts do it, then we'll make room for another chair on the mountain.

It's frustrating. It takes ego to get to the NFL. And your ego gets bruised a little bit when someone is taking your spot.

You can't get down. When you're not playing, root for the other guy. And when you get your opportunity, give 100 percent.
