The Raiders could have just kicked me out after the third year. But they stuck with me. I appreciate it.

I like kicking indoors, definitely.

I love seafood, shrimp.

I never think about how many field goals I kick, I just want to win.

In kicking, you've got to be smooth and let your leg work for you.

Kicking is the same as golf... you need a smooth swing.

In golf, you swing smooth and let the club do the work for you.

Soccer, I enjoy a lot. But I think my career is going to be in football.

I know that I've been making long field goals, and we're going to try long field goals.

I'll play as long as I can.

I don't think of it at all, the pressure or whatever. You've got to take it game by game.

I've lived two lives.

I don't do a lot of interviews, I'm not comfortable doing it.

Every stadium I went to, even if it was an away game, if I saw you wearing my jersey in the parking lot, I was taking your picture.

Growing up in Poland, my dad was a soccer player and people would wear his jersey and I always dreamed that fans would wear my jersey. It was touching.

I appreciate what the Raiders did for me and hopefully they appreciate what I did for them.

The Raider Nation has always supported me and I love it.

All the crazy stuff we do, it gets on TV, you've got to take responsibility for it.

I met a great woman, Lori, my wife. She settled me down a lot.

I don't need alcohol to have fun.

With 80,000 people going crazy in a stadium, I knew I would like to play football.

Whether they're booing you or screaming for you, I just love it.

I have always believed I have the potential to kick as long as I want to kick.

I stuck with the Raiders and they stuck with me.

Before I retire, I would like to be known as the best kicker ever in the NFL.

You have to grow up. You can't be 18 years old forever.

If you would spend a week with me, you would find out I'm a lovely person.

I'm just a bad dancer.

I don't want to be 50-year-old and say, why did I not do this, why did I not do that?

As you go on in your career, you need to work out more, not less.

You've got your family. You've got your kids. You grow up a lot faster.

I have to come in, get in good shape and kick the ball.

I get motivated no matter what. That's my job.

I have fun, just kick footballs and the kids always go run around, kick with me. You're playing with your kids but you're actually getting some work done, too.

Every guy comes in the league, they struggle through something. But I felt like I was always a really good kicker.

Don't judge me because of what happened to me in the past. Look at the stats; look at what's happened and the kicks I've made.

I'd like to see how far I could kick under game conditions. But I'd rather us score seven points.

There's a lot of guys with strong legs out there.

When I golf, I swing hard. I've got to slow down.

I feel as if I have grown up as an Oakland Raider. Through this great journey I met and married my wife, and we have been blessed with three beautiful little girls.

Words cannot express my gratitude to Mark Davis and the Raider Nation.

I always knew that one day my time with the Oakland Raiders would come to an end, but I have to say, that never would have been too soon.

I was thrilled to know that I was chosen to be a Raider.

I always want to lead the league in touchbacks.

When you're 24 or 25, you can kick three times a week.

In this league, you get injuries.

The more you do, the more you work out, you can be strong.

I'm just trying to do my job. If we score 40 or 50 points, I gotta still make those field goals, you know?

I was given a chance to achieve the great American dream.

If you kick it hard, you're going to hook it. You've got to stay smooth. It's all technique.
