ADDISON, Texas _ The shapely waitress was flirting with the quarterback of America's Team a few days ago at an upscale eatery, oblivious to his identity.
Once the bill had been paid, the quarterback of America's Team walked through a crowded foyer, past the people mingling outside, to his black SUV without causing the slightest stir from the patrons.
Quincy Carter, who reported to his fourth training camp Thursday as the Cowboys' starting quarterback, has mixed emotions about the anonymity.
While it's nice to eat a grilled chicken breast covered with a succulent Hawaiian marinade and a Caesar salad without constant autograph requests, he also knows the NFL's best quarterbacks can't go out to dinner without interruptions unless they're in a private room.
That is the life of a star.
It's a life Carter wants. It's a life Carter believes he's finally ready to create for himself.
