-Said he understands why they call Dallas America's Team.

-mentioned how he enjoys going against solid corners like Newman and Glenn in practice, and helping the younger guys get ready.

-when asked if he had any goals for the season in regards to catches and touchdowns, he replied "alot".

TO certainly is a charming guy. He had the media eating out of his hand. On a side note, they showed a practice highlight of TO and Vanderjact talking. One can only wonder what that conversation was about.
