I know what it takes to get to the Super Bowl, what Giants pride and that defense is really about.

Politics and sports are the same thing in some ways. I like sports; I don’t like the sports aspect of politics. The conventions are basically the playoffs, and the election’s the Super Bowl. To me, it doesn’t feel important.
