I don’t care what they say about me when I’m through with sports. I don’t want to be known as anything else in life but a great father.

Meaning of the quote

Deion Sanders, a famous American athlete, is saying that he doesn't care what people might say about him after he stops playing sports. Instead, he wants to be remembered as a great father, which is the most important thing to him in life. He understands that his athletic success won't last forever, but being a good parent is something he values more than anything else.
