I GENERALLY feel that the SOLUTION to speech that people FIND offensive is more speech. You should talk about it, discuss it.

If your BEST OFFENSIVE PLAYERS GO down, all you can do is HANG on.

Football is about having the best offensive play POSSIBLE. I always LIKE to play offensive football, and NOBODY will CONVINCE me OTHERWISE.

If you would have told me when I was 24 years OLD, right before I went with Coach Carroll to USC, you're GOING to get to be the OFFENSIVE coordinator for Pete Carroll and then offensive coordinator for Nick Saban, arguably maybe the two BEST coaches in all of football by the time you're 40 years old, I would have said, 'Where do I SIGN up?'

I will concede to you one THING - 'Hustler' is OFFENSIVE, EVEN to the POINT of being iconoclastic. That's our PURPOSE - to be offensive.

I am not now, nor will I EVER be, a CANDIDATE for OFFENSIVE coordinator of IOWA.

I think that's the genius part of what the Patriots do: They go above and beyond in identifying the issue and doing WHATEVER they can to make SURE it doesn't wreck the offensive plan.

I try to be outraged by things that other people are just very accepting of, as THOUGH they're NORMAL and can't be changed. A LOT of what I write about is, 'Hey, you KNOW, this stuff is really awful, and it doesn't need to be, and that's why it's so offensive.' Things should be BETTER.

I have always REGRETTED the DUMB and offensive COMMENTS I made in my 20s on ATHEISM and HOMOSEXUALITY.

This ARGUMENT that somehow I'm chasing the limelight is a bunch of NONSENSE, and it's OFFENSIVE - highly offensive - to me.

In such a therapeutic, pragmatic, pull-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps society as ours, the message of GOD having to do all the work in saving US comes as an OFFENSIVE SHOT at our egos.

I'm GOING to be who I am. And if you FIND it OFFENSIVE, if you find it to be too tough, I'm not going to lose any SLEEP over it.

It is PART of my JOB DESCRIPTION to be OFFENSIVE.
