Barry Sanders Nfl Quotations

As a kid, I played my share of football in the street or in a vacant lot.

I want to thank all of the fans and media who made playing in the NFL such a wonderful experience. I have had the pleasure of meeting many of them.

It's hard to win in the NFL. You have to maintain a very delicate balance putting together the right team to be able to win and have any amount of success.

I sat behind Thurman Thomas for my first couple of years, then my first year starting I won the Heisman. After I won the Heisman, that's when things changed as far as going to the NFL.

A lot of times I did lose yards on a run, but it wasn't for lack of trying.
