But 109 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 3: as as as athletes, we tend to talk to ourselves 110 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 3: a lot harsh, very very very harshly. 111 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: So when I kind of see see players look off. 112 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 3: In the sense of not how they used to be, 113 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 3: or that they're not upbeat, or they kind of have 114 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 3: that little gate like gaze in their eyes, as a leader, 115 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 3: I kind of go over there and as a friend 116 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 3: and a brother kind of going to this talk to 117 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 3: 'em like saying, hey. 118 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: Man, whatever happened. I do ain't worry about that. 119 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 3: Blow it off, folks on the next play, cause the 120 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 3: worst thing you can happen is you have one play 121 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 3: that you don't like in terms of two plays and 122 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 3: three plays in a quarter, and now you're just in 123 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 3: a hole. So learning to keep guy's heads up, keep 124 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 3: them motivating, keep them to have them to realize, like, hey, 125 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 3: whatever just happens, brush it off, you got this next time. 126 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: And I believe in you. 127 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 6: I know you came in with that baler, have you. 128 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yeah, yeah, he's doing a good job too. 129 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 6: Through all this used to talk about leadership a lot. 130 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 6: What did you see from where you guys characteristics in 131 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 6: the NFL?
