"This was harder than anything I've ever been through."...

Jimmy Johnson has returned to the States after his run on "Survivor: Nicaragua" and shares some of the details with one of his former players on the Michael Irvin radio show in Miami:

"This was harder than anything I've ever been through. I've been through three a day practices as a player and coach but at least we had a good night's sleep and we had food in our stomach. We were existing on less than 100 calories a day and so it was just so difficult."

"I can't tell you all the stuff. You're going to have to watch the episodes but we had a tough time out there."

At 67 years old, and as coy as he can be, you have to imagine he either was the first eliminated or won the whole thing.
