  • 03 February 2011 Nice to have the tables turned. Instead of me interviewing Jets CB Darrelle Revis, Revis is interviewing me. #No comment.
  • 11 August 2010 It now has gotten to the point where the bus has become a rock star. Players are stopping by on their own to see it. Today, Jaguars wide receivers Mike Sims-Walker, Mike Thomas and Kasim Osgood came by together after they wrapped up their meetings. They toured the bus, talked about the upcoming season and then posed for this picture.
  • 15 August 2010 Me and the men of Atlanta.
  • 09 August 2010 Sometimes it's all right to ride shotgun.
  • 06 February 2011 Rodgers and Jennings...
  • 31 July 2010 The first two players to board the bus and sit down for interviews were Bengals wide receivers Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco. They were as entertaining as anyone could hope. And their comments will air throughout the day on ESPN and, very likely, the Sunday Night Conversation.
  • 09 August 2010 Last month, Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker shot an ESPN commercial in California. Today he shot an interview on the bus in Foxboro, Mass. As nice as Welker is, it makes it even better that he's one of the few stars in the league that doesn't dwarf me.
  • 06 February 2011 Getting ready for gametime...
  • 14 August 2010 As good as Panthers running backs DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart are on the field, they were just as impressive on the bus. As they do on the field, they brought out the best in each other in what was the most entertaining visit we've had this entire bus journey.
  • 03 August 2010 One of the league's classiest and most productive players was today's interview subject. Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward always is good, on and off the field. Hard to believe he had 95 more catches last season at the age of 32 and now needs only 105 more for 1,000 in his career.
  • 09 August 2010 For years, the Eagles have talked about how poised and polished quarterback Kevin Kolb is. After spending time with him on the tour bus Sunday, it's hard to argue. Kolb seems mature beyond his years, very polite, very professional and plays the part well. If he can do it on the field as well, he will be a huge star.
