| Oakland Raiders QB Terrelle Pryor, whose late arrival to the NFL via the supplemental draft following by a league-imposed five-game suspension, became a forgotten man in 2011. As a result, it nearly made him decide to forget about football. 'There was a point - and I know it seems crazy - but there was a point I was asking myself if I really loved this game anymore,' Pryor said. 'That's where I was at (emotionally). Throughout the whole season I wasn't playing, I wasn't getting no love toward me. I just felt some type of way. I started questioning myself, even though I shouldn't have. I was like, 'Do I even love this game? Do I want to play this game? Is this what I want to do?'' |

I gave my mother this so my sister wouldn't be cold, so my mother wouldn't be cold.' They didn't have any sympathy for me.' |
