OUTTAKES

DP: Ever thought about doing what Albert Haynesworth did?
SJ: Never. But I have teared up from being so frustrated.
DP: You've been on the verge of crying?
SJ: Yeah. I'm a crybaby. You train all week for a game. If things don't go your way, it's frustrating.
DP: Have you ever gone back to the huddle with tears in your eyes?
SJ: No. I can't say I've cried in the huddle.

DP: What's the best conversation you've had in the huddle?
SJ: Orlando Pace and I played the JumboTron game, where they shuffle a football under three helmets. We both were wrong, too.

DP: You're from Vegas. Which is the best casino?
SJ: The Palms. The Maloofs have created a fun atmosphere.
DP: Does what happens in Vegas stay in Vegas?
SJ: No. What happens in Vegas is all over TV now. I have a hard time when I date.

DP: Who has better hair, you or Troy Polamalu?
SJ: Troy has the curly locks. They look a lot softer than mine.
DP: When is the last time you got a haircut?
SJ: Six years ago. My parents didn't like the long hair at first. Now they're against me cutting it.

DP: Have you been inside the Gateway Arch?
SJ: My rookie year. But I'm afraid of heights. I was scared to death. I couldn't enjoy the view.
DP: Did you go up with your eyes closed?
SJ: No. It was another teary moment, though. I wouldn't be good on Fear Factor.

DP: Can you run faster backward than Marc Bulger can run forward?
SJ: I think so. He has this Prince kind of glide, and he spends too much time in the air.

DP: Who's the best running back in the league?
SJ: Me.
DP: What makes you better than LaDainian Tomlinson, Shaun Alexander and Larry Johnson?
SJ: I can do everything those guys do, but I'm twice as big. People say I'm the only running back who could be a linebacker.

DP: Favorite OutKast song?
SJ: "Ms. Jackson." My mom got teased so much when it came out, but we've grown to love it.

DP: Last movie you saw?
SJ: I just got through the The Godfather trilogy.
DP: Who is the Godfather of the NFL?
SJ: Morten Andersen.
DP: You're just taking the oldest guy! All right. Who's Michael?
SJ: Reggie Bush.
DP: And Sonny at the tollbooth?
SJ: Albert Haynesworth.
