| I will miss it all. I never lost hope in my coach nor my team, but rather I felt the league lost faith in me. In fact, Anthony knows how many times I have honored him for his defensive brilliance. I never questioned his rash decisions. Despite the politics, I have a lot of respect for this league and the people that make this league so competitive. The CFL means so much to me. I have had many sleepless Saturday nights just from the excitement of playing the following morning. I wouldn't show up to every practice and play my heart out every down if that wasn't the case. People often say that they breathe and bleed football, well I am one of those people. Honestly, the true reason for my retirement is that I just don't have fun anymore. True, I am not a great athlete, and sure I have been injured most of my career. But, I feel my consistency on the field should be awarded once in a while. I am healthier than ever, and I don't believe I was presented a fair chance. Moreover, I am at the point right now when I don't want to spend 4 hours of my Sunday morning waiting to play 20 to 25 minutes. Sunday morning is really the only time I have for my family. It is about principle - not about winning and losing.
