I'll paraphrase a little, but essentially what he said in it's entirety was that football had given him a purpose and meaning in his life (let's not forget, this is a career and a significant part of their legacy as a person, not just a 'game of footy' for these guys) and that he made the conscious decision to play on accepting that their was some risk that he may do permanent damage to his brain in doing so, but he was prepared to accept that risk because of what playing football meant to him as a person and in the overall scheme of his life.
