Gene Upshaw Game Quotations

Whatever happens in this game will not matter after Week 17. If the site was switched late in the season, I'd have a problem with it. But this is early in the season.

Whatever happens in this game won't matter after Week 17. If the site was switched in Week 16 or Week 17, I'd have a problem with it. But this is so early in the season, it won't be important.

What we're trying to do is encourage people to participate. You can not win unless you get in the game. You've got to get into the game and you've got to put your name out there. What Herman was saying is everyone that's asked should play the game.

Things like this are about the integrity of the game and our sport and we have to make sure it is dealt with sufficiently.

The players have worked very hard to make this game the best in the world. The players are committed to ensuring that the game of football remains on the field and not in the courtroom.
