John Elway

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.

Being thrown into the fire and getting the thing turned around in a hurry made it more difficult. Things have been done the hard way. I think you learn better when things are done the hard way.

I was so lucky to walk away with two Super Bowls and know that the last year was positive.

I'm happy with the Arena Football League right now. I'm happy in Denver.

It's all about putting the best team together - not just in the front office but the players on the field.

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.

You learn a lot more from the lows because it makes you pay attention to what you're doing.

I don't have any pangs to where I want to be with the Broncos.

I'm watching the Weather Channel more than I've ever watched it. I'm scared to death it's going to rain.

I've experienced the highest of highs and lowest of lows. I think to really appreciate anything you have to be at both ends of the spectrum.

To be able to get a football team thats 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.

I had a great time doing Vegas. It's just that it takes a lot of time.

As football players you have all the experience on the field. You don't have the experience off the field.

There have been openings, but I have not interviewed for any jobs, nor do I want to right now.

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 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.

I can't compare quarterbacks as apples and oranges in my mind because everybody's in a different system.

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.

There are a lot of people who might not get another chance to win a Super Bowl, not just me.

I'm getting the basics with the AFL, but the NFL is a different animal.

I always believe there's a reason why you go through everything.

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.

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.

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'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.

I would have loved to have played for Joe Gibbs. Look at his record of winning three Super Bowls.

I don't know if I like being the sentimental favorite.
