K-ADAM VINATIERI (on if he has thought about his emotions going back to New England)
"It will be a lot of fun…Oviously, I have a lot of friends over there, so before the game I'll probably see and talk to a few of them, but once the game starts, it should be business as usual."
K-ADAM VINATIERI (on New England fans being passionate and if he has thought about the reception he will get)
"They are passionate. There's a lot of Red Sox fans and Patriot fans and all of that out there. They love their sports. They're loud and crazy, which makes it fun. A few of them may give me a thumbs up before I'm even out there, but I expect once the game starts, it's business as usual and most of the time that means yelling at the opposing team as much as you can. So, I guess it is what it is."
K-ADAM VINATIERI (on if he thinks of the scenario of kicking a game-winning field goal at New England like he did last week at Denver)
"You always have to be prepared for whatever your role is. You never know if it's going to come down to a field goal at the end or if you're on the sidelines cheering your team on,if it's the offense or defense. So, I guess we'll prepare the best we can for whatever situation we have, and if it happens that way, we move forward. And if it doesn't, I'll be cheering."
K-ADAM VINATIERI (on how different it is with the Colts compared to the Patriots and for him on an everyday basis)
"There's a lot of similarities between the two locker rooms because you have two teams that have a lot of really good players that have good leadership, that go out and practice and watch film and play well. So, that's why both teams have been very successful in past years. It should be a fun game. It's one of 16 regular season games, but it's going to be meaningful for both teams, both teams playing well. It will separate the two a little bit come later in the year."
K-ADAM VINATIERI (on if it's a game he circled on his calendar)
"Obviously, it will be a fun game and a special game for me, but ultimately this game is no more or less important than some of the other AFC games that we'll be playing. I mean, they're all important."
K-ADAM VINATIERI (on his relationship with his holder and long snapper-- Hunter Smith and Justin Snow with Colts)
"I've been very fortunate and very spoiled the past going on 11 years now that I've had great guys to work with. Lonie Paxton
