A biography for John Elwayhasn’t been written yet.
“I was so lucky to walk away with two Super Bowls and know that the last year was positive.”
“I'm watching the Weather Channel more than I've ever watched it. I'm scared to death it's going to rain.”
“A guy as great as Brett Favre has been for the length of time he's been, you would hope that he would be able to leave the game with a positive flavor in his mouth.”
“I would have loved to have played for Joe Gibbs. Look at his record of winning three Super Bowls.”
“Even when I retired, there was part of me that didn't want to retire. But once you decide it's time to move on then you have to stick with it.”
“There have been openings, but I have not interviewed for any jobs, nor do I want to right now.”
“To be able to get a football team that's capable of competing for world championships, you always got to get a little bit lucky, but you got to have all phases to win it all.”
“You learn a lot more from the lows because it makes you pay attention to what you're doing.”
“We get done with the game, and it's an absolute downpour 30 minutes later. That's when I thought God was telling me that's enough-time for you to go do something else.”
“It's all about putting the best team together - not just in the front office but the players on the field.”
“There are a lot of people who might not get another chance to win a Super Bowl, not just me.”
“The Arena League is the best thing that could have happened to me because I get to run the whole process. I'm seeing not only the football side but the business side.”
“I look at my career and it's still hard for me to believe the way things turned out and how things happened. I've been so blessed.”
“I would hope this experience would help me if that NFL opportunity were to arise. But I also know that it's a totally different league. There's a lot more to it.”
“I had a great time doing Vegas. It's just that it takes a lot of time.”
“I've always joked about Joe Montana not appreciating his Super Bowls nearly as much as I do because he never lost one. We lost three before we got one.”
“How ironic, to be my last game that I ever played would be against Dan in a Super Bowl. The thing I always was afraid of was playing in a Super Bowl when it was raining. I can't throw a wet ball.”
“It's really been a better situation for me being with the Crush than it would if I were with the Broncos because this has given me a lot more broad range.”
“When I retired, I really wanted to spend time with my family and kids. Coaching would have prevented that due to the commitment of the job and travel that goes with it, too.”
“I was a baseball player and a football player at Stanford, so I didn't play a lot of golf in college. I really started playing a lot after I turned pro and I had some time in the off-season.”
