Football Player

My favorite team was always the Chicago Bears and my favorite NFL player was, without question, Walter Payton. His competitiveness and desire were unmatched.

Youth sports helped shape me in a lot of different ways.

The thing that I love about working at 'GMA' the most is the storytelling - there are so many different genres on that show and themes you can cover, so it's been a lot of fun.

Football has always been my biggest passion. It's my wheelhouse. Regardless of where my career goes in television or media, I never want to lose football.

I think success breeds success.

I played club football with a traveling team since I was 8 years old. I also played basketball and baseball, so I was competing on the athletic fields the entire year.

The only job I'd consider leaving ESPN for would be to call NFL games.

When I get into the car and drive to work, I actually look forward to it.

Ultimately, college football is a huge passion of mine. In my opinion, I really feel ESPN owns college football. The only way I think I could have left ESPN was for an opportunity to call NFL games. That was the opportunity I had at Fox.
