4
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: a Walter Payton Man of the Year, literally my favorite guy, Marty.

5
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: Are you ready for some football?

6
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm ready to day. Forty six years I've been ready.

7
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: Wow, this is your forty six year it.

8
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 2: Is you know, either easy, you know as a player.

9
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 2: And then i did the Jet Journal TV show for

10
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 2: a while and twenty two years I've been the radio booth.

11
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 2: Second year being the ambassador. So I'm excited.

12
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: This is awesome. Well, Marty, we got some fun stuff

13
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 1: for our second year of our show. Let's see, we

14
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: got some great guests on the show today. We actually

15
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: have a fan favorite, which we'll talk about later. We

16
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:50,919
Speaker 1: got questions from the fans. We're just gonna have a

17
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: fun time talking of a little Jets football, talking to

18
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: some Jet legends, some other legends we'll get to, and

19
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: answering fan questions. So first of all, I'm gonna ask

20
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: how are you doing? How's the Austine hasn't been for you?

21
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,199
Speaker 2: Oh? I'm doing well? Jenay the Foundation is doing well.

22
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 2: I'm getting to the finish line at a couple of

23
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 2: things that I'm doing. And every time you want to

24
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 2: cross that finish line into that world of retirement, you

25
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 2: get pulled right back in there. You know, I think

26
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be around for a few more years.

27
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,279
Speaker 1: Oh, I think so. I think we got to hit fifty.

28
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: At least got to hit the center.

29
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: You got to get fifty with the Jets. I mean,

30
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 2: I owe the Jets a lot, going all the way

31
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,839
Speaker 2: back to nineteen eighty two when I started the foundation

32
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 2: and then retiring in nineteen ninety one and still being

33
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 2: a part of it. It's great to go down there

34
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: on the field and meet the sponsors and meet the fans,

35
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 2: and see the players that I built relationships with when

36
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: I was doing the radio and just give them some advice.

37
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,559
Speaker 2: You know, right now, you're in first place, we're tied

38
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 2: for first, and it's a big game. You're playing a

39
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 2: team that is going to come out and they're going

40
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 2: to try to smash in the mount. You know, that's

41
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 2: the one thing about playing the Pittsburgh Steelers. They've been

42
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 2: known about it for years. It's going to be a

43
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 2: very physical game.

44
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,320
Speaker 1: And now again we got a new The Jets have

45
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: a new head coach and Aaron Glenn. They quarterback justin field.

46
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: What have you seen so far with this team? What

47
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: do you like what Aaron Glenn's doing? Who is a

48
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: former player like you? How much does that help?

49
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 2: Well? I like? I like what Aaron Glenn's doing. He

50
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: came in and he created a new culture, a culture

51
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 2: that's old school. He's gonna he came in there. Number one,

52
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 2: very disciplined. Number two, he knows that to get ready

53
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: for a game, you have to go through a tough

54
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 2: training camp. It's one way, it's his way. And you've

55
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 2: got to remember who he learned from. Number one, Bill Parcells.

56
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,679
Speaker 2: Number two you go, it's Sean Payton. And number three

57
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 2: you had Dan Campbell out there in Detroit. And he's

58
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 2: been well schooled and he's been waiting for this job.

59
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 2: And he's one of us. He's a former New York Jets,

60
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 2: And that's what makes it exciting. He's one of us.

61
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, when you say he's one of us,

62
00:02:59,360 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: what does that mean?

63
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 2: You came into the organization as a number one pick

64
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 2: and then you spent fifteen years in the league, and

65
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 2: then you knew you wanted to coach, but you knew

66
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 2: you had to start somewhere at the bottom. So he

67
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 2: started in scouting, moved his way up, moved his way up,

68
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 2: and he became a position coach, and he became a

69
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 2: defense defensive coordinator, and then it was time for him

70
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 2: to look for a head coaching position, and it just

71
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 2: happened that the Jets were looking for one two. It's

72
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 2: a perfect match, all.

73
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: Right, Martin's Week one? Do you remember your Week one game?

74
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 2: Week one? I sure do, laughing. Yeah, we lost to

75
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 2: Cleveland at Shay Stadium, and I remember I was playing

76
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 2: in a defensive end. I was in like a skinny nine,

77
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 2: meaning I'm lining up on the tight end, and Cleveland

78
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 2: broke the huddle and Ozzie knew some Hall of famer

79
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 2: now with the Baltimore leveland yeah, he was a tight

80
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: end with the Cleveland Browns. Yeah, he came out and

81
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 2: he looked up at me and he was, hey, hold mee,

82
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 2: how you doing it? And I went Just as I

83
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: got ready to answer, the ball was snapped and he

84
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 2: hooked me and they ran for about fifteen yards. So, oh, yeah,

85
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: is that You're welcome?

86
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 1: Is that you're welcome to the NFL moment right there.

87
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: Oh no, I think I got more welcome there in

88
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 2: preseason and I got thrown around, and you know, it's

89
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 2: a whole new ball game. The game is faster, the

90
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 2: players are stronger, there's no you're playing against guys that

91
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 2: aren't on a four year scholarship, five year scholarship. You're

92
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 2: playing against guys that have been in the league ten

93
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 2: twelve years that they know what it takes to prepare.

94
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 2: They know what it takes to win.

95
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: Marty, what would you tell like these rookies coming in

96
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: playing their first game, go walking out in that life stadium.

97
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 2: Hold yourself accountable. Go out there and play to the

98
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,720
Speaker 2: best of your ability. If you try something and it

99
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 2: doesn't work, because it good work in college, remember put

100
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 2: it in your notes and say, hey, you know that

101
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: didn't work. I got to try something else. Don't be disappointed.

102
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 2: If you were a All American in college and you

103
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 2: come in and there have a rough rookie season, you know,

104
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 2: why do you have to prepare? That's why you look

105
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 2: at a guy like Will McDonald in his third year.

106
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 2: He's got one of the best spin moves I've ever

107
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 2: seen in forty six years. But the way he's got

108
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 2: to do is he's got to develop another move to

109
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 2: compliment the spin move. Otherwise, when the offensive coordinator they're

110
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 2: preparing to play for the Jets, they're going to roll

111
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: that center as soon as he snaps the ball over

112
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 2: to Will McDonald's side and try to get him when

113
00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 2: he comes inside. So you know, you developed that secondary move,

114
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 2: but that spin moves is really incredible form.

115
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: Now, Marty, I know you're going to be at the

116
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: game I am, and you're wearing a special little jacket.

117
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: We talked about this. You have a jacket. You know,

118
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 1: you're the you know, fashion experts, you're the Queen.

119
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 2: Of dressing, and you said, hey, why don't you wear

120
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 2: that jacket that I got down in New Orleans And

121
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 2: it's the Man of the Year jacket.

122
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 1: There was six v sorry, I got a chair on.

123
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: All right, you won the Man of the Year in

124
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty four, right.

125
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 2: Right, But there were six of us that were honored

126
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 2: this year down at the Super Bowl, and Aunt Kwan

127
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 2: Bolden from the Arizona Cardinal did a great job of

128
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 2: putting together a video of all six of us and

129
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 2: the work that we're doing, and I think it was

130
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 2: encouraging for the team Man of the Year to look

131
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 2: at that and realize that they do make a difference.

132
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: But you can't just start something now as when you're playing,

133
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 2: and then when you retire you walk away from it.

134
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 2: I don't think it's fair for the donors. I don't

135
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 2: think it's fair for the people that donate their times,

136
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 2: and it's not fair for the calls that you're working for.

137
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 1: So you got a special jack and you're gonna be.

138
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: Wearing it, Well, you gave me the approval.

139
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: No, you definitely should. Yeah, that was What does that

140
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 1: mean to you, Marty? Like so many years ago and

141
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: you're still doing the same thing and you're still being

142
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: honored for your work off the field.

143
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 2: Well, Jane, I look at it like it's great.

144
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: That's awesome. That's awesome, and you know you deserve it

145
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 1: because you do so much for the Mary Marty Lyons Foundation.

146
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: You know, I'm looking at the Sciences Marty Lyons Foundation

147
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: the courage to wish for more and that's you, that

148
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 1: is you grant so many wishes and it's such a

149
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: great thing. And you know what, though, we're gonna move

150
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: on though to questions from the fans, how's that sound?

151
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: Does that sound good? I wish Katie puts the music in,

152
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: like do we need like a little song or music?

153
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: All right? This question comes from Paul from New Jersey,

154
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: who was the toughest o lineman you've ever faced.

155
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 2: Hi, Jay, the toughest one was. There's quite a field,

156
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 2: but John Hanlon's got to be up here at the

157
00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 2: top for the New England Patriots. Okay, would just lower

158
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: that button. You know, if he was coming straight off,

159
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 2: you better buckle your chin strap and you better get low.

160
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 2: Mike Webster from the Pittsburgh Steelers, you know, he wasn't

161
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: he didn't try to overpower you where he could because

162
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:21,679
Speaker 2: he was the NFL strongest man winter one year. Dwight

163
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 2: Stevenson down there with the Miami Dolphins, you know, an

164
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 2: excellent center. So I think that as you prepare to

165
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 2: go into the game, my mindset was, no matter who

166
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 2: I was going up against, they were only going to

167
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 2: be as good as I let them. And some days

168
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 2: it was long a long afternoon. Some days I got

169
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 2: my share, someday they got their shares. You're not going

170
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 2: to win the place, so you just got to get comfortable,

171
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 2: and you gotta sometimes you got to pick yourself up,

172
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 2: tie your shoes up a little bit tighter, and go

173
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 2: back in.

174
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 1: Oh that's a great question by Paul because I liked

175
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: the answers. Yeah, all right, this is Dan from Long Island.

176
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 1: We've kind of already talked about this, but you can

177
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 1: go more into it. How has the game changed since

178
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: you played?

179
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 2: Well? Number one money, a lot of money. Number two money. Yeah, yeah,

180
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 2: you know what, that's what it is. It's money. You know.

181
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 2: Players are able now to go into free agency and

182
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 2: take their ability, take their talent and shop it somewhere else.

183
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 2: And I'm happy the players are making more money because

184
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 2: you look at a guy like Dennis Burg, who would

185
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 2: have been a tremendous, tremendous defensive tackle. Unfortunately we all

186
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 2: know that he broke his neck and then he ended

187
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 2: up passing away. So the game is going to wear

188
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 2: and have some wear and tear on you the older

189
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 2: you get. So I think that the players should get paid.

190
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 2: And that's the big difference now. The players. You know,

191
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 2: sometimes it's hard to identify if you're a fan looking

192
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 2: down and saying, well, you know, Marty Lions wore ninety

193
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: three and now somebody else is wearing ninety three, and

194
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 2: Marty Lions is somewhere else. You know, players are going

195
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 2: to move, They're going to shuffle themselves.

196
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: Around the two days, didn't I thought you might say

197
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: the two A days.

198
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, two A days.

199
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: I mean players don't have to two with the two

200
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 1: days anymore like you guys did.

201
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 2: Oh well, you know, And plus there's a limited time

202
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 2: that you can go out there on the field. With

203
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 2: Walt Michael's feet, we would get halfway through practice, he'd

204
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 2: blow the whistle say hey, you know what, we're going

205
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 2: to start this whole thing over, and you go back

206
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 2: to stretching and start the practice over, only because he

207
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 2: didn't feel that we were getting the most out of

208
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 2: our time on the field.

209
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: This is Mary from New Jersey. What was your proudest

210
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 1: moment as a New York Jet.

211
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 2: Well, I think there's a couple. You know, being part

212
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 2: of the Sack Exchange is one. I think number two

213
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: would be in twenty thirteen when I had the opportunity

214
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 2: to go into the Ring of a honor and I

215
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 2: remember my last line was, you know, first you want

216
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 2: to thank your family, and you want to thank your teammates,

217
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 2: and you want to thank the coaching staff, but the

218
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 2: biggest first people that I wanted to think were the fans.

219
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 2: And the only way that I could do that was say, hey,

220
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 2: every time you look up at that name and that number,

221
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,199
Speaker 2: it's not just mine, it's yours. So that they were

222
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 2: included in the Ring of Monter also very cool.

223
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: All right, Jason from New Jersey, What was it like

224
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: being part of the Sack Exchange?

225
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 2: Oh, it was fun. It was fun. It was you know,

226
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 2: we had a we had a group of guys, a

227
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 2: group of men, eleven of us on defense that could

228
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 2: play the front. Four got a lot of credit because

229
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 2: you had Joe Klecko, you had Mark Gasno, you know,

230
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 2: and both of them getting double digit sacks, and then

231
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 2: you had Abdul with myself in the middle. But it

232
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 2: was great because at that time, you know, you dream

233
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 2: your whole life to make it to the NFL and

234
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 2: you come in. In the first couple of years, it

235
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 2: was just vanilla and then all of a sudden, you

236
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 2: know what, You've got something. And then we had autographed sessions.

237
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 2: We went down to the New York Stock Exchange. We

238
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 2: were the talk of the town and it was special

239
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 2: because now you can look back on it and nobody

240
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 2: can ever take it away from you, and.

241
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,200
Speaker 1: You guys do great thirty for three I think it

242
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 1: was a thirty for thirty and ESPN did a documentary

243
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: on it last year. Got to watch it. How cool,

244
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: I mean, how cool is it that you have that now?

245
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: Like all, like, you know, the coolest moment Tony about

246
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 2: that is we did it probably two months before I

247
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 2: Abdul passed away, so.

248
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 1: You have that memory of him with you guys.

249
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, And that duel was he was the you know,

250
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 2: soldier of peace. He kept peace between the four of us.

251
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: You know, it was key to that ring of honor

252
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 1: or that sack exchange.

253
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

254
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 2: And the funny thing about it is he says, they're

255
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 2: somewhere during the show, if anybody did anything, he'd just

256
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 2: punched them. And he was like he was like that.

257
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 2: He was like that in the locker room. He was

258
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:23,839
Speaker 2: very quiet, very productive, and very a very special individual.

259
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: All Right, this is a question from today Coachley and Stanford, Connecticut.

260
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 1: What's your favorite Joe Clacko's story.

261
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 2: Well, Joe has so many stories. I mean, the biggest

262
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,719
Speaker 2: one I think was you know, my first experience was

263
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 2: getting that index finger right in the middle of my ribs,

264
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 2: right above my chest, you know. And he said, hey,

265
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 2: you don't leave this complex until I leave. And I

266
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 2: started to walk off, and he stuck that finger in

267
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,079
Speaker 2: my chest and he said, what did I just tell you?

268
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: And you know, you look back on forty six years

269
00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 2: now and the friendship that we have built and so

270
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 2: happy when he asked me to be his presenter down

271
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 2: there at the Hall of Fame. You know, he's got

272
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 2: a son, Danny, that has three Super Bowl rings. He's

273
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 2: got another son. I used to call him Mikey because

274
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 2: he grew up in the locker room. He prefers Michael

275
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 2: now because I think he's forty four years old. But

276
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 2: you know, to see his kids grow up, and uh,

277
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 2: to see Joe get inducted to the NFL Hall of

278
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 2: Fame in twenty twenty three. It was a long journey

279
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 2: for him, but he made it.

280
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: He's so well deserved, so well deserved. All right. This

281
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 1: question comes from Katie from New Jersey. What was your

282
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: favorite stadium to play in?

283
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 2: Any stadium that we wanted?

284
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: Oh, that was easy enough.

285
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 2: You know, I like playing out in San Diego. That

286
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 2: was a beautiful atmosphere.

287
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: Oh I miss a stadium out there.

288
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 2: You know, you go down to New Orleans and of

289
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 2: course have the super Dome and he got Bourbon Street

290
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 2: and other activities that you can and enjoy while you're

291
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 2: down there. But you know, I really enjoyed Chastadium. I

292
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 2: think going in there when the Mets were playing and

293
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 2: you had that clay in field, and it was just

294
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 2: something about getting dirty and something about an old stadium

295
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 2: like that, and the fans when we lost to Buffalo

296
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 2: in the wild card game, the fans were so excited

297
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 2: that the stadium itself felt like it was moving one

298
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 2: whole end zone. The seats were going up and down,

299
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,239
Speaker 2: and the locker rooms weren't that great.

300
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: But you should, by the way, you should see the

301
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: new locker rooms at the facility.

302
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 2: Now ask a virtual tour. You know what it is though.

303
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 2: It is just like all the colleges that you go to,

304
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 2: and you know, it's a recruiting tool. When these players

305
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 2: are in free agency and they come, they want to

306
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 2: see what you have to offer them as far as

307
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 2: a facility, far as practice fields for night light, what

308
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 2: are you going to do? So I think that they

309
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 2: came in there and dropped the two hundred and fifty

310
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 2: fifty million dollars on that renovation, which you know what's

311
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 2: going to bring in a lot of excellent players down

312
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 2: the line.

313
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: Oh it's beautiful, all right. Now, I have a question

314
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 1: as a former player, how difficult is it to get

315
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: a new head coach? How they changed thing going through preseason,

316
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 1: going through training camp and then started a new season.

317
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 2: Well, you got to believe in the coach, and I

318
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 2: think everybody that has been around age understands his philosophy.

319
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 2: You got to come in there and you got to

320
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 2: set the standard the very first meeting. These are my rules.

321
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 2: This is the way I'm going to discipline you. But

322
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 2: the name of the game is we got to win,

323
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 2: and Aaron knows what it takes to win. So I

324
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 2: think as a as a veteran player, you're willing to

325
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 2: accept that because you got to look at yourself in

326
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 2: the mirror. I said, hey, you know what, maybe I'm

327
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 2: running out of time. I don't have much more time,

328
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,360
Speaker 2: whether it's with the Jets or even playing in the NFL.

329
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 2: So I want the opportunity to number one, to play

330
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl and Number two to get that

331
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 2: ring and I think that's what ag is bringing to

332
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 2: the table.

333
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 1: Now, what do you see from the Jets defense.

334
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,479
Speaker 2: Well, I see a defense that you know what, they

335
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 2: got all the pieces at number one. You've got to

336
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 2: stay healthy. It's a long season. Seventeen game. I think

337
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 2: he come back in with will McDonald quinnon. Williams is

338
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 2: going to have a big year. And then you try

339
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 2: to get a defensive tackle that's going to compliment him.

340
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 2: You bring in Harrison Phillips and everybody knows how well

341
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 2: he played out there in Minnesota and of course with Buffalo.

342
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 2: And then you got Sherwood in the middle as the

343
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 2: middle linebackers, and you got Sauce Cartner. You've got enough

344
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:01,399
Speaker 2: tools on defense. I think on offense early in the season,

345
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 2: you're going to probably see them run the ball sixty

346
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 2: sixty five percent of the time pass it. But now

347
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 2: you have a rushing quarterback too, and Justin feels that

348
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 2: he gives you the versatility to go with a single back,

349
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 2: knowing that if he gets in trouble, he's going to

350
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 2: run the ball. If I'm coaching, you know, justin Field,

351
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 2: beside all these drills that I put them through, I

352
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 2: have them scramble, go around the side and slide. Learn

353
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 2: how to slide, Learn how not to take a hit,

354
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 2: learn how to when you get outside the numbers to

355
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 2: get out of bounds. You know, it's important that if

356
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 2: it's thirty nine and you try to reach out to

357
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 2: get that extra yard, make sure you can get it

358
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 2: and you don't want to get hurt or just slide.

359
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 2: And I think anytime that they cross the fifty yard

360
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 2: line and they get inside the forty and it's fourth

361
00:18:55,760 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 2: and one, don't don't be surprised if AJ, I mean

362
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 2: AG just looks at the team and says, hey, I

363
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 2: have enough confidence in you, just like Dan Campbell. You're

364
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 2: gonna win some, you'll lose them, but build confidence in

365
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 2: your offensive line and in your offense.

366
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: Marty Gisson, we have joining us today.

367
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 2: But I see him man CJ mostly man.

368
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: One of our favorite favorite guys. CJ. Moseley, CJ. Thank

369
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: you so much for joining us today.

370
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 3: Yes, thanks for having me. Glad to be here.

371
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,959
Speaker 1: We have two Alabama guys. Guys. I hate to have

372
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: to bring this up. What the heck happened to your

373
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: team this weekend?

374
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 4: First, Yes, smacked in the mouth that's what happened. I

375
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 4: got smacked in the mouth. Now you used to seeing it.

376
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 4: So it's a wake up car early. I mean, we're

377
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 4: at a different time, so lost won't It's not the

378
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 4: end of the world, but better get it together quick.

379
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what, CJ. I remember my sophoen year

380
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 2: playing for coach Bryant and we beat a team in Birmingham.

381
00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 2: I think we won twenty one to three or two

382
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 2: twenty four to three, and we were celebrating in the

383
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 2: locker room and Coach Bryant walked in there and said,

384
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,199
Speaker 2: I don't know why you guys are celebrating. You're you

385
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 2: embarrassed the Red Jerseys to that, you embarrassed the tradition

386
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 2: of Alabama. Took those back to Tuscaloosa, had an early

387
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 2: curfew and played the game over on Sunday. And if

388
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 2: I was deboor, that's what I would have done after

389
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 2: that that disaster down there in Tallahassee. I just the

390
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 2: guys have got to understand, man, there's a certain standard

391
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 2: to play at Alabama.

392
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,120
Speaker 4: It is it is, and it's tough, and you kind

393
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 4: of you can kind of compare, you know, college football

394
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 4: with the NFL now to keep a standard alive, to

395
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 4: keep it tradition, the live is about, you know, keeping

396
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,639
Speaker 4: those key factors of those key pieces close together, but

397
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 4: with moving parts. You know, every single year, you know

398
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 4: that always is always hard to try to keep that

399
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 4: or maintain that and all that standard. So it's always

400
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 4: up to the you know, the players to maintain that,

401
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 4: to know the historians to know the standard, and you

402
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 4: know the fans always make sure they remember that as well.

403
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 4: But I think just at a certain point, you just

404
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 4: have to try to keep the pieces as close as possible.

405
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 4: And things are going to change, the game is going

406
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:14,479
Speaker 4: to evolve. But overall, you know, it's all about a

407
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 4: certain type of success to win it. And that's that's

408
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 4: what it boils down to.

409
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 1: City. How have you been. How's retirement treating you?

410
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,880
Speaker 4: Just treat me well, I can't complain at all. Life

411
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,400
Speaker 4: is going well, you know, being a dad every day,

412
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 4: and just started my my sports agency, Legacy Trust Sports Group,

413
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 4: so that's keeping me you know, close to football and

414
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 4: having that leadership mentor role.

415
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 3: So things are going well.

416
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,679
Speaker 1: Talk about it, sorry, talk about the Legacy Trust that

417
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:42,439
Speaker 1: you started. What's that?

418
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 3: Yeah?

419
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 4: So me and my business partner, Brandon Walstall. We started

420
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 4: Legacy Trusts June one. You know, may have built it

421
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 4: for the ground up, self self funded.

422
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 3: It was.

423
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 4: It's actually pretty cool to kind of get behind the

424
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 4: scenes of you know, starting a business. You know, you

425
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 4: learn about the payroll, about benefits, you know, finding your employees,

426
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 4: doing interviews and stuff. So I've definitely been, you know,

427
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 4: very hands on with that. But overall, you know, the

428
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 4: main thing about our agency is the first two words,

429
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 4: legacy and trust. The legacy part, obviously is what you

430
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 4: do on the football field. You know, what you lead,

431
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 4: how you leave your market, your legacy with your teams

432
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 4: on the field. But for me, the most important part

433
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 4: is the trust and that's off the field us when

434
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 4: you work with us. So when we work with you,

435
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 4: it's about understanding that we will do the best to

436
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 4: make sure you handle your stuff on the field. But

437
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,439
Speaker 4: you know that comes down to the player being healthy

438
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 4: and doing the right things stand out of trouble. But

439
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 4: what we want to do is just make sure that

440
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 4: you can focus on the things that we keep you

441
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 4: successful and when you're ready to take that next step,

442
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,439
Speaker 4: whether it's retirement or find your the thing that you

443
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 4: want to do to be successful, after football. We want

444
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 4: to make sure that we're very hands on with that.

445
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 4: So pretty much just taking my blueprint from on field

446
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 4: and off field success and giving it back to the

447
00:22:59,000 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 4: to the next generation.

448
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I still remember that game against the Tennessee Titans.

449
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 2: I think I told you one Derrick Henry was running

450
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,719
Speaker 2: around on that suitep. You came from that middle linebacker position.

451
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 2: You squared them up and it sounded like a train

452
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 2: wreck when you two yew can tell you there was

453
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 2: no yards after after contact on that hit.

454
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, he's a Bama guy, so I've seen him.

455
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 4: I've seen him around for a long time, so I

456
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 4: know I know what to do.

457
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,919
Speaker 2: Gida. How important is this opening game against Pittsburgh. I

458
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,199
Speaker 2: mean you had a chance to play against him for

459
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 2: a long time.

460
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 3: I mean it's important.

461
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 4: Every game is important for the Justice as an early start,

462
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,959
Speaker 4: a great opponent they're going to be coach well obviously

463
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 4: didn't know Aaron, so uh, the defense is going to

464
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,640
Speaker 4: have a test. It's gonna be a great test because

465
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 4: he gotta he's gonna understand what they're trying to do.

466
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 4: He's going to know the players, he's going to know

467
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 4: the Tennessee's so I think it's just another a great

468
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 4: start for the season. The pastor year if you play

469
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 4: against Pittsburgh, it's been some good battles. You know, we

470
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,359
Speaker 4: want something to lost some but just overall things just

471
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 4: a great test for the guys to get out there,

472
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 4: you know, new people, new system, and really just just

473
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 4: let loose and just have fun.

474
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,400
Speaker 1: CD. What's what's your greatest memory of being a Jet?

475
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 4: My greatest memory, I guess personally for me is obviously

476
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 4: the first game, you know, putting on the uniform going

477
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 4: against the Bills, big robbery. Obviously we know how it

478
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 4: started to end. This I won't you know, keep that going.

479
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,120
Speaker 4: But as a just as a true just fan and

480
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:41,159
Speaker 4: just an NFL player, it's another like good and bad memory.

481
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 4: But you know that first game against the Bills again,

482
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 4: and you know, obviously with hand going out there, I

483
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 4: really just sat there and just soaked it all in.

484
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 4: I was a That was a great moment for sure,

485
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 4: but like we said, unfortunately we know how that ended.

486
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 3: But yeah, CJ.

487
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 2: For every player in the NFL, there comes that time

488
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 2: when you have to walk away, you have to retire.

489
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 2: When did you know that you were going to step

490
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 2: out of the game.

491
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 3: Uh well, pretty much.

492
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 4: I was working my way back with the with the

493
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 4: neck injury from the New England game. So that was

494
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 4: October twenty seventh or around around that date. So this

495
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 4: is about, you know, towards the end of the season,

496
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 4: I'm trying to you know, practice and run and make

497
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 4: sure I can move around. So I was actually finally

498
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 4: putting on my pass and helmet, actually practicing and doing drills.

499
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 4: So I was on the practice not practice quider. I

500
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,680
Speaker 4: was on the you know, the look team, the scout team.

501
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 4: So I was trying to get my rep saying that

502
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 4: you know, mentally prepare myself because I didn't I didn't

503
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 4: want to go back on the field without actually you know,

504
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 4: hitting somebody and you know, really getting injured. So talk

505
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 4: about the sweep. Bright Allen called a sweep coming around

506
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 4: the corner. I was like, okay, this is this is

507
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 4: my time to see what I can do. So I

508
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 4: gave a nice little shoulder because also we camet tackling

509
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 4: practice and it didn't feel right. So I kind of

510
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 4: I kind of sense like, well if it's if it's

511
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 4: been three four months and it's still feeling like this,

512
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 4: then you know, I got to really think about what

513
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 4: I want to do after this season.

514
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 1: How was it hard for you to like be part

515
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: of training camp and not be part of training camp,

516
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: like knowing that this year like was your first year

517
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: of not being out of retirement. You know what I'm saying.

518
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, not really, because you know, I opted out in

519
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 4: twenty twenty, so I kind of got a, you know,

520
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 4: a feel of retirement, and I went through you know,

521
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 4: all the OTA spring training and all that, but I

522
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 4: didn't do training camp in the season. But you know,

523
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 4: fast forward to now, I think just the just the

524
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 4: whether injury was located, Like if it was a knee

525
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 4: or ankle not then I maybe I could push through it.

526
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 4: But you know, just dealing with the neck, you know,

527
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 4: where I'm at my career, where I was in my career,

528
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 4: you know, it felt it was kind of an easy decision. So,

529
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 4: I mean, thankfully I'm in a good spot financially and mentally,

530
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 4: and now I've done the right things off the field to.

531
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 3: Be able to move forward.

532
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 4: But it's I'm definitely, you know, still invested in the game,

533
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,439
Speaker 4: still invested with the just a lot of you know,

534
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 4: teammates and friends still playing, and obviously with the agency.

535
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 4: I'm definitely way more connected with football, a bigger landscape now.

536
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 2: I know, speaking about stepping away from the game, and

537
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 2: I have a foundation for terminally ill children. I know

538
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 2: how hard it is to get started year one and

539
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 2: now we're in the year three. Just want to let

540
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 2: you know, for a lot of the players, like myself,

541
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:43,120
Speaker 2: Joe Klecko, if you ever need any help, CJ, We're

542
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 2: there to help you.

543
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, appreciate it.

544
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 1: It's like a brother. How is daddy date heare ben? CJ?

545
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,399
Speaker 1: Is it harder than training camp? Actually she's daughters almost

546
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: a year, right.

547
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 3: Yes, almost a year? Almost a year?

548
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 4: Well, well, I want to say it's harder, but trying

549
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 4: to camp pass help because you know you're sleepy, but

550
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 4: you got to stay up the meetings.

551
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,199
Speaker 3: You know, you got to study.

552
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 4: So it's just like watching her, you know, watching how

553
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 4: she moves, what things she liked to do, you figure

554
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 4: out characteristics. But now she's she was starting to walk,

555
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 4: so we had a whole different ball game. But she's

556
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 4: full of energy, very loud, So I guess that's the

557
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 4: football side of me.

558
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 3: But other than that, I'm like, I don't know where

559
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 3: you get all the stuff.

560
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 2: From you didn't see J. I got one that's forty three,

561
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 2: thirty two, thirty one and twenty nine. Gotty daycare never ends.

562
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, never love it though, So it's it's great.

563
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,479
Speaker 1: It's great, all right, c J. What would be if

564
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 1: we'll wrap this up? What would be your message to

565
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: the guys this week going the week one?

566
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 4: I mean, this team has been together for a long time.

567
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 4: You know, we've we've been and we've been through something,

568
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 4: some great times and some bad times. We've seen we've

569
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 4: seen success and how it looks, and we've seen how

570
00:28:56,280 --> 00:29:00,239
Speaker 4: how it's not supposed to be dying. So everything, all

571
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 4: the questions and all the answers and all the speculations

572
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 4: they've been everywhere around this team. So now it's trying

573
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 4: to go out there and just play football and perform,

574
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 4: play smart, penalty free, don't do stupid stuff, and you're

575
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 4: gonna be in the game every single time. And then

576
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 4: it comes down to your playmakers and execution that and

577
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 4: just keep it simple, man, just play football and wain

578
00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:20,280
