1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: Well, no, we are not opening up tomorrow. Under local 2 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: and state regulations. We've remained closed right now. What our 3 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,239 Speaker 1: coaches are doing is meeting remotely with the players. It 4 00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't be much better if the players were remote and 5 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 1: the coaches were in the office rather being in their homes. 6 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: So it's a practical matter. I don't think it really 7 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: makes any difference whether or not the coaches in the building. 8 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: What does the testing process overall look like. We believe 9 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 1: by the time in training camp we'll be able to 10 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: test players and coaches and those who were together a lot, 11 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: multiple times a week, and be able to get the 12 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: results fairly quickly. So I'm more confident today than I 13 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: was a month ago about the widespread availability of testing. 14 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: Trust has to be placed in the players, right Like, 15 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: it's not like they're gonna be living in a bubble. 16 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,599 Speaker 1: They're not gonna be in a hotel. Well, I think 17 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: it's not just the players. We're gonna depend on everybody 18 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: in the building to play his or her part and 19 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: making sure that when they leave the building they are careful. 20 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: The infection rate is really was I expected will be 21 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: by late summer, and we have adequate testing. I think 22 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: there's a really good shot that will be okay, welcome 23 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,119 Speaker 1: into the Lounge. We kind of we kind of left 24 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:22,960 Speaker 1: you a little high and dry last week. We'll lie, 25 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: we went radio silent. We ghosted you and didn't have 26 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: a pot on Thursday. But that's because we knew we 27 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: had one coming on Monday with a big time guest, 28 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,839 Speaker 1: Ravens Team President Dick Guest. Yeah exactly, So we're gonna 29 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,119 Speaker 1: have a couple this week. Um, sorry for only having 30 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: one last week, but we wanted to delay and get 31 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: you a great guest to provide some great perspective on 32 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: what's happening with the Ravens right now and then reopening 33 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: the building and all that. So before we jump into 34 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: the interview with Dick, I want to make sure the 35 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: fans know there's only one truck brand strong enough to 36 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: partner with the Lounge and the Ravens Podcast Network, and 37 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: that's Ram Trucks Motor Trends back to back Truck of 38 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: the Year.

So, 47 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: without any further ado, let's go ahead and jump into 48 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: the interview with Dick. Well, thank you so much Dick 49 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: for joining us. Really thrilled. It's been two months about 50 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: since we last talked to you, and a lot has 51 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: changed then. Uh specifically, my peanut butter stash has been depleted. 52 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: Now it's done. It's I milked it for a long time, Dick, 53 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: but it's gone. So now we have to bring you 54 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: back on to figure out when I can get back 55 00:02:55,880 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: in there get restocked. That'll be a while. Uh So, 56 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: you know, obviously a big news around the NFL is 57 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: the NFL facilities are allowed to open tomorrow Tuesday. So 58 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: from you are the Ravens opening up? And if not, 59 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: why well, no, we are not opening up tomorrow. Um, 60 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: you know what the NFL what the Commissioner's memos said 61 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: is that teams are allowed to reopen their practice facilities 62 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: on a limited basis if it is okay under state 63 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: and local regulations, and Maryland were deemed to be a 64 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:38,839 Speaker 1: non essential business, and while Governor Hogan eased his stay 65 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: at home orders somewhat last week, the easing didn't affect 66 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: our status. So under under local and state regulations, we 67 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: remain closed, and we will remain closed and until the 68 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: governor permits us to open up. But I think, you know, 69 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: I think it's important to note that the opening up 70 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: the NFL is permitted is a very limited one. No 71 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: players will be allowed, and for the time being, no 72 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: coaches will be allowed, and that's because we knew that 73 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: players would not be allowed. I think some teams expected 74 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: coaches to be allowed back in the building when the 75 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 1: NFL lifted its stay at home order, but I think 76 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: the lead decided that since some teams could not reopen, 77 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: it would not be fair to have those other teams 78 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: that could reopen have their coaches back, because that might 79 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: somehow give them a competitive advantage. Honestly, don't think it 80 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: does right now in the circumstances we're operating under um 81 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: But that's that was the least decision. I don't know 82 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: how many teams are like the Ravens and cannot reopen tomorrow. 83 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: I think it's probably the neighborhood of ten teams. So 84 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: maybe twenty two of the thirty two teams can reopen 85 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: if they want to, and ten or so cannot. And 86 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,679 Speaker 1: to reopen you have to have certain things in place. 87 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: You have to have a protocol in place for a 88 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: safety protocol, and you have to have completed certain educational requirements. 89 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 1: Your employs bill had to review educational materials where they 90 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: can come back. So there's some steps you have to take. 91 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: And I've noticed around the league that some of the 92 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: teams are announcing they're not reopening tomorrow even though they can, 93 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: they're taking some time to make sure they're ready. Interesting. Yeah, So, 94 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: so you don't see it as as a disadvantage or 95 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: advantage either way, whether something I don't you know right now. 96 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: It would be a tremendous It would be great to 97 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: have our players back right but I don't see that 98 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 1: happening really anytime soon. So what you're talking about is 99 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: having the building open with no players right now. What 100 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: our coaches is doing are doing is meeting remotely with 101 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: the players. And my understanding from talking to John and 102 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: others is that those meetings are going okay. I mean 103 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: they wouldn't be. It wouldn't be much better if the 104 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: players were remote and coaches were in the office rather 105 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: being at their homes. I mean, there's a few technical 106 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: glitchers that maybe it would be easier to fix if 107 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: you're in the building. I think sometimes the easier if 108 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 1: a video guy was there to help them right away. 109 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: But we're managing that and I don't so it's a 110 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: practical matter. I don't think it really makes any difference 111 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 1: whether or not the coaches are in the building, at 112 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: least right now. So what would it look like once, 113 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 1: you know, let's just say the governor's order changes in 114 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: ten days and and we make the decision to open. 115 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 1: What does it look like in terms of the people 116 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: who were back there. If there's no players and for 117 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: the time being, there's no coaches, like, who would be 118 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: back there and what would that look like? It would 119 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: be a very limited crew. I mean, right now, under 120 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: the governor's order, we're allowed to have people in the 121 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: building to accept deliveries, to maintain the building, to clean 122 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: the building um uh and too basically building the grounds. 123 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: I mean they can people can work on the on 124 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: the football fields because they're not coming in the buildings 125 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: at all. So all of that is permissible. We're also 126 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 1: allowed to have the athletic trainers there to treat players 127 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: who are rehabbing from injuries or surgeries, and so we 128 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: have three to five players that are coming back to 129 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: the facility from time to time for that for treatment, 130 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: and all that's permissible under the governor's current order. UM. 131 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: You know. I think that if we were allowed to reopen, 132 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: I think there's some people on the business side who 133 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: would probably like to come in occasionally, UM to to 134 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: have meetings, small group, very small group meetings, uh, to 135 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: use there some of the facilities and equipment we have 136 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: in the building. I think the football video guys would 137 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: like to be back in the building, UM to get 138 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: some things ready, to check up, check up on their equipment. 139 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: The equipment group has some things they would like to 140 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: do to get ready for the season, work on the uniforms. Um. 141 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: You know, we've got a lot of you know, just 142 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: getting everything ready really for the season, um. You know, 143 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: so that the scouts and the personnel side there's a 144 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: couple of guys there that would like to commune occasionally. 145 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: But all of this is it's not it's a very 146 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: small number of people who would who would be back 147 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: in the building really from now until training camp. So 148 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: I think, you know, I think the ability to reopened 149 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: the facility and to try to try out some of 150 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: the safety protocols we're gonna put into place, I think 151 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: would be very useful, just in sort of seeing how 152 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: the protocols are working, getting people accustomed to them, tweaking 153 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: them after trying experiencing having some experience with them, and 154 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: seeing how it works. But even when we reopened the 155 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: facility before training camp, a lot of the areas we 156 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: customarily use would not be would not be open. The 157 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: donning room would not be open, the locker rooms except 158 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: for the limited use of the player's locker room when 159 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: those guys getting treatment, none of the other locker rooms 160 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: would be open. The weight the weight and condition room 161 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: would not be and again except for the few players 162 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: who are coming in to rehab injuries, so it would 163 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: be a very most of the rooms would not be utilized. 164 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,719 Speaker 1: It would be a very small group, I would think 165 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: on a typical day we probably wouldn't have more than 166 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: until the coaches come back. We probably would not have 167 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: more than fifteen, maybe twenty people in the building. Um, 168 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: you know, when the coaches came back, I think a 169 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: few more would would come in. I don't think we'd 170 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: ever be over and the building any one time, if 171 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: it surprised me forever that much. Um, But you know, 172 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: I think it's still useful to have the building open 173 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: just to get ready. Um, you can't you know, training 174 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: camp begins the third week of July, and if you 175 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: you can't sort of turn on the switch right then 176 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: it takes a couple of weeks to get the building 177 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 1: ready and to prep everything and to reopen the dining room. 178 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: And there are a bunch of things that have to 179 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: get done in advance of the training camp, so that 180 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: that would be difficult for us if we couldn't do 181 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 1: those things before training camp began to be very difficult. 182 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 1: So you're really looking at the start of training camp 183 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: as kind of the first time when when uh, I 184 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: mean a lot in air quotes of employees returned to 185 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: the building to facilitate that, So two months away essentially, 186 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: I think that's true. But even when training camp begins. 187 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: I think I'm going to urge everybody who can continue 188 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 1: to work remotely to continue to do that. There's no 189 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: reason and in this in the period situation where now 190 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: and there's no reason for people to go to an 191 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: office building unless you have to. And when training camp begins, 192 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 1: there's some people have to go back to the building 193 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: to work. But there's a lot of people who could 194 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: continue to work remotely, and everyone can do that, should 195 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: do that, and and we'll probably order them to do 196 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: that unless you know there's a reason not. Is there 197 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: any special consideration given to the parents of small children 198 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: who are bouncing off the walls at home allowing those 199 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: people to come back. I felt like putting in the 200 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: safety protocols that hey, guys, just because you can come in, 201 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: it does not mean you can come in just to 202 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: get away from your kids. And you know that is 203 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: not an adequate reason to come in. Counseling, get counseling. 204 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: Do you see this, Dick as uh is kind of 205 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: the new normal for potentially the entire season. You know, 206 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: I think that's kind of a big question that not 207 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: just related to football, that everybody has is when things 208 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: return to normal and so so training camp starts, players 209 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: are their coaches are there, a limited number of staff 210 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: are there, but you're still there's still you know, a 211 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: large level of encouraging people were from home. Do you 212 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: think that will be the case for potentially the entire 213 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: season and maybe even in I think it probably will be. 214 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: I mean, the the issue will be, you know, as 215 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: a season unfold, sort of what is the situation with 216 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: the virus? Is it? And we've gotten the infection rate 217 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: down so low that it is not, as a practice 218 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,719 Speaker 1: matter two much of an issue for us. But you know, 219 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: when you read about what the experts are saying, even 220 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: if we get it really low in the summer months, 221 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: when transmission of the virus is more it's more difficult 222 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: to transmit from one person to another person during the 223 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: summer months, we believe, we don't know that for sure, 224 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: that's what the experts seem to believe. But then everyone 225 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: talks about the second wave. We reopen, the weather turns colder, 226 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: and the virus slams us again with great force, and 227 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 1: so you want to be ready for that. And so 228 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 1: I think that probably it'll would be wise for people 229 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: to continue to work remotely if they can. Probably we 230 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: will encourage them to do that unless unless things go 231 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: extremely well in the meantime in terms of the of 232 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: the virus and in its presence in our community. But 233 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: our number one priority has to be the safety of 234 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: our staff. Are players, are coaches and everyone else. And 235 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: I think, um, you know, the more we can work 236 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 1: remotely to say for everybody is and for those who 237 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: have to come in, the safer they will be if 238 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: they're not in contact with people who don't have to 239 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: be in the building. I mean, even if you have 240 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: to be in the building, everyone will be safer if 241 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: you stay in your own corner and don't mingle and 242 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: interact with with others, so you can maintain an appropriate 243 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: social distancing, so they'll they'll be all sorts of measures 244 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: in place. There are measures in place now in the 245 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 1: protocol we've just adopted for on building, which I circulated 246 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: everybody this morning, But that protocol will will change when 247 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: the players return, and we'll have a lot of additional 248 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: restrictions and a lot of different different protocols we will 249 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 1: have to follow. Yeah, we we read your email on 250 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: the protocol this morning, but could you just share with 251 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: the listeners some of the details on what it will 252 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 1: look like when employees do you come back, and all 253 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: the different steps that they'll have to go through in 254 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: order to ensure everybody's safety. Well, the first thing they're 255 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: gonna have to do is complete the educational program that 256 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: will be setting out later today. I mean it's just 257 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: reading some materials and watching a video, and we may 258 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: supplement those materials as we get more materials from the league. 259 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: So that's one thing they're gonna have to do, and 260 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: they'll have to send us a text message affirming they 261 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: had completed that educational process. When you approach our guardhouse, 262 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: you will be stopped at the guardhouse and screened at 263 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: the guardhouse with people in protective gear. They'll take your 264 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: temperature with one of those things they point a your forehead. Uh, 265 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: they will. You will ask the answer five questions about 266 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: exposure symptoms, fever and that sort of thing. If you 267 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: get through that, you go down and you enter through 268 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 1: the main lab. If you don't get through that process, 269 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: you turn around and lead and we will then contact 270 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: you and which you in touch with medical people or 271 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: arrange for a test. If the symptoms are such that 272 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: a doctor leaves, you're qualified to get a test. Um 273 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 1: But If you pass that, you then enter through the 274 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: main lobby. You'll go through some temperature monitors for a 275 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: second screen. You don't you don't have to stop, but 276 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 1: going to use the monitors will measure whether or not 277 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: you have an elevated temperature UM and if you flunk that, 278 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: you gotta leave right away. But if you don't, you 279 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: continue into the building. When you enter the building, you 280 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: have to have a mask on and we will supply mask. 281 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 1: If you don't have one, we're buying mask for everyone 282 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: in the building. You go to your office, UM, well 283 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: your space UM if you if you have an office, UM, 284 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: you don't have to wear your mask in your office, 285 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 1: but whenever you leave your office, you have to put 286 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: your mask on in the hallways. If you go to 287 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: get coffee in the break one of the break rooms 288 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: you can go in there, you gotta put on those 289 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: temporary gloves we saw before we left the building. Use 290 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: that to get your coffee. If you approach your break 291 00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: room and someone else is in the break room, you 292 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: cannot go in it until that person leaves. UM. Same 293 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: protocol with bathrooms. You go into bathroom, someone's in it, 294 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: you gotta leave and wait till that person leaves the bathroom, 295 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: and as I indicated, we're not going to have the 296 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: dining room open. But if you're gonna be in there 297 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: that day long enough and you're gonna stay for lunch, 298 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: you have to tell us and we will provide it. 299 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: We will bring a lunch to you. Um, we will. 300 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 1: You'll not go to the dining room to get a lunch, 301 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: so you won't get to fill up on your peanut 302 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: butter because whatever is in your box, that's what you get. 303 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: And then you know, so that's that's sort of how 304 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: it will work. When you leave, you don't leave through 305 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: the main lobby. You leave through either the new lobby 306 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: if you're working on that side of the building, or 307 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 1: you leave through the player's entrance if you're working on 308 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: the other side of the building. Um. And you try 309 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: to stay within your space and when you walk with 310 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: you know, when you're in the meeting in the building. 311 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: You try to maintain social proper social distancing at all times. 312 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: If you have a meeting, it's to be small enough 313 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 1: meetings so everyone there can maintain an appropriate social distance. 314 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: So that when we talked to you last time, something 315 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: that we spent a decent amount of time discussing was 316 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,479 Speaker 1: was the concept of testing and how that would be 317 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 1: paramount in terms of having a season and having players 318 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: back in the building. So I'm curious, in two months, 319 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,640 Speaker 1: when training camp starts, what does that testing process look 320 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: like for players, UM and anybody that is involved a players, coaches, scouts, 321 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: medical Is that multiple times a week? Is that an 322 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: antibody tests like? What does the testing process overall look like. Well, 323 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: I think that the testing for the presence of the 324 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: virus will I mean, let me step back a second. 325 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: I think that the there will be We believe when 326 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: I say we, I mean I think the NFL believes 327 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: that by the time training camp rolls around, there will 328 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: be a lot of testing available that's not available right now. 329 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: So that we do believe that by the time in 330 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: training camp we'll be able to test players and coaches 331 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: and those who were together lot multiple times a week 332 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: UM and be able to get the results fairly quickly. 333 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 1: So we believe that's going to happen. And I think 334 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 1: when you read I read an article just today that 335 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: they're in a lot of states right now they have 336 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: many tests that are going unutilized because people aren't showing 337 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: up for testing, So I don't know if that means 338 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,400 Speaker 1: they don't know they're available or they don't really think 339 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 1: they need to be tested. So right now, in some 340 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,400 Speaker 1: jurisdictions there there is an abundance of tests, and from 341 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: what I read, there's many, many more being created and 342 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 1: their labs are ramping up even more so the process 343 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: can be expedited in terms of getting the results back. 344 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: So I'm more confident today than I was a month 345 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: ago about the widespread availability of testing, but any without 346 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 1: any special treatment for the NFL and any other sports organizations. 347 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: So I think we'll have that and we will be 348 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: testing a lot everybody on the football side, multiple times 349 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 1: a week, I would think, But that will be that 350 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: that kind of testing will really depend on the advice 351 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: of the experts. It will be part of the protocol 352 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: that we're going to receive that's being worked on by 353 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 1: the medical advisors for the NFL and for the players Association. 354 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: And if you read about what's going on in Germany 355 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,360 Speaker 1: with the German Soccer League, where you I didn't haven't 356 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: read the MLB the Major League Baseball protocol, but I've 357 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 1: read about it incredibly detailed, and I think that's the 358 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: kind of probably protocol we will have as well. So 359 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: this is this is testing that you expect to get 360 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: the results back from you know, hourly with it, I 361 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: don't know how quickly, but not be shorter than than 362 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 1: than three days, which is sort of a norm right now, 363 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: right because I think that the concern, I mean, one 364 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 1: of the concerns is, you know, what if what if 365 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,639 Speaker 1: a player shows up and tests for a high temperature 366 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 1: and obviously then you get him tested right and have 367 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 1: a game on Sunday, right, I mean, you need the 368 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: results back because it might not be COVID. Let's just 369 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: say they have the flu something, right, and and you 370 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: don't want that player obviously missing a game if they 371 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: don't have COVID. You know something, I think we could 372 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 1: just go crazy speculating what ifs and how it's all 373 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: gonna work. I mean, I you know, it's I don't 374 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: the one thing I'm confident of and unless we and 375 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: the players and players associationally think we can do this safely, 376 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 1: I don't think we'll do it. So, you know, I 377 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 1: think that's I just have confidence we can make this work. 378 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 1: But if it turns out I'm wrong, we won't be 379 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: able to all work. I mean, we'll have to just 380 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: wait and see. I do think though, that we won't 381 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: even open training camp until we think we can do 382 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: it safely. From a long lasting standpoint, I'm curious, how 383 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: do you expect it's just fast forward, you know, a 384 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: year or so and let's hope that things are in 385 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: large part back to normal. Do you expect some of 386 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: the learnings from this whole experience to adjust how the NFL, 387 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: how the ravens operate, whether it's how the building operates, 388 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 1: how remote work has done, like how all these different things, 389 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: uh will apply once things are essentially back to no more. 390 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: From a health standpoint, well, I think, you know, I 391 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: think things will be back to normal when we have 392 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: an effective vaccine. And until then, I think, well, people 393 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: will be nervous and we'll probably take a lot of 394 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 1: precautions that we otherwise wouldn't take. I think even though 395 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: when we have a vaccine, I think something we've all 396 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: learned is about, you know, help, Washing your hands makes 397 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 1: such a big difference. Staying home if you're not feeling 398 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:46,199 Speaker 1: well makes a big difference. We don't need heroes to 399 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: come in when they're not feeling well to infect everybody else. 400 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: So I think we've learned a lot about that number one. 401 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: Number two, I think we've learned a lot about how 402 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 1: to work remotely, and I do think that will become 403 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: more important. I think you know they're there always. There 404 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: has been over the last ten years or so in 405 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 1: the workplace there has been increasing pressure I think mainly 406 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: from women, but also from men who have child care 407 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: needs that are hard to meet sometimes and would like 408 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: to work remotely more often. And there's been a general 409 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: resistance in the workforce to allowing that and to sort 410 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: of looking at people differently if they want to work 411 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: remotely because they have other needs and other reasons to 412 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:33,199 Speaker 1: do that. And I think what we're demonstrating now on 413 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 1: many levels is that we can learn to work remotely, 414 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: and we can learn to do it effectively, and there's 415 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 1: some real benefits to work and remotely, and so I 416 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,360 Speaker 1: do think that will that will have a lasting impact. 417 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 1: And so I think those are the two factors I 418 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: think well, I think continue to affect how we do 419 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: business going forward, both at the Ravens and other businesses 420 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,399 Speaker 1: as well. Interesting, can you share what you expect training 421 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: camp to look like and how it will be different. 422 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's I don't really know yet because I 423 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: think that, you know, the protocols will be tough, I 424 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: I imagine, so I don't I really don't know what 425 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: to expect. I think that, you know, there'll be less meetings, 426 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: probably in the meetings will be maybe in smaller groups. Um. 427 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: I think we will as as I do believe, will 428 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 1: isolate the players and the coaches and the football staff 429 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 1: from non football staff. I don't think we'll use that. 430 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: I don't think everyone will be able to use the 431 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: dining room for example. UM. You know, and I think 432 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: again on the non football side, we will encourage people 433 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 1: to work remotely. You know, we'll see whether or not 434 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 1: we can have fans and training camp. I just don't know. 435 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: I mean, things would have to improve dramatically for us 436 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 1: to even to think about that at this point, and 437 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: as early as July to have fans at training camp. 438 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: You can imagine all the logistical issues. I would guess 439 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: that the protocol that comes out might well address that 440 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: issue as well. We're certainly not going to have signatures 441 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: giving out signatures. We're not going to sign anything, so 442 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,719 Speaker 1: there's a lot of things like that that will be 443 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: very very different. But it's hard to know. I mean 444 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,239 Speaker 1: it's hard. I keep reminding people it was literally just 445 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: two months ago when the states shut down, I mean 446 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: in everything changed in two months, and now training camp 447 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: begins about two months from now, so it's hard to 448 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: know exactly what it's going to look like. I mean, 449 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: I follow the all the data that comes out every 450 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: day here in Maryland, you know, and it's not. The 451 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: disappointing thing is that the number of new cases is 452 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 1: not really going down very much. It's maybe down a 453 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: little bit, But I think I attribute a lot of 454 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 1: that to the additional testing that's going on, because I 455 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: do think I bet you that if we had real 456 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: data earlier that we find the number of cases that 457 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 1: were never reported was was was a lot higher. But um, 458 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 1: so the number of the cases is not The number 459 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: of new cases are not really going down, maybe slightly. 460 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: Um what's the number of deaths is really has not 461 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,400 Speaker 1: going in the last week, They've gone down a little bit, 462 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 1: trending down, but um, you know part it's it's not 463 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: really changed that much though. What has changed are the 464 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: number of people leaving the hospital compared to the number 465 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 1: of people going in. So it used to be that 466 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 1: when you look at that number, every day, the number 467 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: of people entering a hospital because of COVID nineteen far 468 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: exceeded to the number of people leaving the hospital after 469 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: having been cleared to leave after having COVID nineteen. And 470 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 1: now it's just the other way. And over the last 471 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: really two weeks solid um, on average, the number of 472 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: people leaving the hospital exceeds by a significant number and 473 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: the number of people going in. So that's a good trend. 474 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: It means that you know, the peak is I think 475 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 1: the peak is going down, trending down, and that's so 476 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: that's good. Now, how far it's going to go and 477 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 1: how quickly it's going to go down I don't know, 478 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: but hopefully it'll start to accelerate downward over the next 479 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,199 Speaker 1: couple of weeks to the point where in two months, 480 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: you know, we'll have a we won't have that many 481 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: new cases being reported, right and at some point, you know, 482 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: for their bed for there to be a season, I mean, 483 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 1: trust has to be placed in the players, right, Like, 484 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: it's not like they're gonna be living in a bubble. 485 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 1: They're not gonna be in a hotel, They're not gonna 486 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: be under you know constant watch, they're gonna go home 487 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: to their families and we have to trust them to 488 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: social distance and stay home as much as possible. Like, 489 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: how do you kind of stress that to the players 490 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 1: And can you talk about that amount of trust that 491 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to have with them? Well, I think 492 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 1: it's not just the players. Remember we got we have 493 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: when we when we cut down, we'll have fifty three 494 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: and then you know, twelve on the practical players in 495 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: the building. But when you add together the coaches, the scouts, 496 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 1: the equipment people, the dining room staff, um people who 497 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: have touched the players every day, that exceeds the number 498 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: of players. And so it really we're gonna depend on 499 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: everybody in the building to play his or her part 500 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: and making sure that when they leave the building, UM, 501 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: they are careful, they're not. You don't want them going 502 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 1: out into a into a nightclub, you don't want them 503 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 1: go into a crowded restaurant. You really don't want them 504 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 1: to invite um family members from California come stay spend 505 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 1: a week with me in their house. So it's going 506 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: to affect all of us and the way we conduct 507 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: both business in the building and our personal life outside 508 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 1: the building to take precautions that in past years were 509 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 1: not necessary. And that's going to be a learning process 510 00:27:55,840 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: for everybody, not just the players. I'm confident that someone 511 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: comes in our build and they're not going to it's 512 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 1: gonna be pristine, it's gonna be clean. We're gonna sanitize 513 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 1: it up the kazoo, and so it won't be that's 514 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 1: not going to be the problem. But if someone is 515 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: asymptomatic and goes out on the practice field or goes 516 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: in a meeting, you know he could infect in others, 517 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: and so you know there's a limit to what you 518 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: can do. And if the infection rate is really love 519 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: as I expect it will be by late summer, and 520 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,199 Speaker 1: we have adequate testing and people are careful when they 521 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 1: leave the building, i think there's a really good shot 522 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: that will be okay, and we can deal with a 523 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: couple of players or a couple of coaches getting sick. 524 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: If we isolate them and we trace and we test 525 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: everybody we can, we can deal with that. We'll get 526 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 1: some notion of whether or not this can work from 527 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: watching the German Soccer League and watching Major League Baseball. 528 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: If they're able to relaunch, not to relaunch, to launch 529 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 1: their season, and we'll see what the end, how the 530 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 1: NBA goes, So hopefully they'll be of models force that 531 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: we can look at, learn from, uh and then put 532 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: put into practice when we come back. Awesome, Well, Dick, 533 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: thanks so much. We really appreciate the perspective. I mean, 534 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: I think and everybody is is like you said, two 535 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: months ago, it was we were having a much different conversation, 536 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: and in two months from now, we'll probably be having 537 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: a much different conversation at that point, and this is 538 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: something that continues to involve evolve, UM, and it's it's 539 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: hard to predict exactly where it goes, but certainly we're 540 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: keeping our fingers crossed UM that everything moves, continues to 541 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: move in the right direction. We have a full season, 542 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 1: and that we'll be talking about football you know, before 543 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: we know it. Yeah, we will be. And it's look, 544 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: I'm so excited about this season. I mean, I think 545 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: you know we're gonna I'm really looking forward to having 546 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: our guys back. We got a lot of great new 547 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: players on our team. We've got a core of great 548 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: players returning, and we're i mean, we're a legitimate contender 549 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: this year. Everyone knows that we know that last year 550 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: we embraced the grind. This year we need to embrace 551 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: the expectation and move one from that. So it's gonna 552 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: be a great year. We just gotta get get it going. Yeah, well, 553 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: that's that's part of the reason we're so excited for 554 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: this season is because we know we have a great team. 555 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: We've got it quarterback and all these exciting you all Right, Well, 556 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: thank you so much, Dick. Thanks for having me care Alright, 557 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: really good perspective for fans that were wondering listening to that. 558 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: You know, why we didn't talk about expectations for the 559 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: season and what that looks like and all that. It's 560 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: just too early, uh to be talking about that, and 561 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: it's kind of conjecture and and honestly, it's just we'll 562 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: cross one bridge, you know, at a time, so we'll 563 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: get to that. Um. But I think it's you know, 564 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: there's a lot of steps that the Ravens are taking 565 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 1: and and it's it's clear, even from reading the email 566 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: that Dick sent us this morning, how much thought has 567 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: been put into this process of how the Ravens are 568 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: going to reopen, and every meticulous stet Um. You know, 569 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 1: I I appreciate that they are taking it slow, right, 570 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: It's not like we just want to be back to work. 571 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: We're excited about the season and let's all just hurry 572 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: up and get in here. Like, like Dick said, the 573 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: safety of the players, the coaches, employees, everybody is first 574 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 1: and foremost. While we all want to have a season, 575 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: we know that we can't be putting people in danger. 576 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: So um, you know, it's really good to hear that 577 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: from Dick. Yeah, And like he said that the facility 578 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: once it does open, is going to be pristine, and 579 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: there's gonna be such a level of checks and balances 580 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: for anybody who's entering questions, temperature checks, santitis sanitizing stations, 581 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: all of that. Like there is going to be a 582 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: lengthy process just to step foot into the building. Um. 583 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 1: And and a large number of people that are in 584 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 1: the building are already going to have been tested for 585 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: the players it, coaches, and and the medical people. So UM, 586 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 1: I think that that is encouraging. And like you said 587 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: at the very end of the interview, you know, he's 588 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: optimistic and excited about what the season is gonna hold. 589 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: We've got a great team, and so, uh, you know, 590 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: that is something I think a lot of Ravens fans 591 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: and football fans should be excited about, you know, in 592 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 1: terms of what's gonna happen this year. You take your 593 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: temp at the guard station, right, which means you have 594 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: to roll down your window. I assume for the little 595 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: forehead thing. But my driver's side window doesn't work anymore. 596 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: It hasn't. It hasn't worked for about two years. You 597 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: gotta get out of the car. Well, I always have 598 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: to just crack my door and reach out if I 599 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: want to because my window doesn't roll down. What do 600 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: you do if you're going to drive through? You gotta 601 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 1: get out, you know? Yeah, I gotta get out your 602 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: hand out. Yeah, like any of the things like you 603 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: park your park your car b w I and you 604 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: have to take the ticket, you know, partner gage, I 605 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: have to open my door and like reach my hand 606 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: out because it's four dollars to repair a window? Are 607 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 1: you joking? I just don't need it, that's enough. But yeah, no, 608 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 1: and all honestly like it is. Uh, it's clear that 609 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:54,719 Speaker 1: there is a ton of meticulous preparation that's going into this. 610 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 1: So before we conclude We've got a couple of emails 611 00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 1: we want to read. This first one comes to us 612 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: from Scott Phillips. Uh. Scott says, you guys are the best. 613 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: Make have you accepted the fact that Garrett is the 614 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: superior draft or both in the Bunker draft and in 615 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: the real NFL draft? Look, blind squirrel finds a nut 616 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: every once in a a while, and you you got one 617 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: with Patrick Queen, all right, but I am not conceding 618 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 1: that part, certainly not. And and I won the last 619 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 1: non football draft, saying I won the Buck Draft, so 620 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: I obviously got I'm two for two in the last 621 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:32,479 Speaker 1: two Scott the blind squirrel obviously then too. So his 622 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: his question, his question is, you guys go through different 623 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 1: rhythms every year. What is your favorite part about working 624 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: for the Ravens. Well, you would say the peanut butter, right, 625 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: I definitely would right, Well, well, really well, really it 626 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: was what was I can't even remember what was called? 627 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 1: What was it? After you wanted tacoed taco truck or 628 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: food truck Tuesday Tuesday? That I mean, that was my 629 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,959 Speaker 1: favorite part. I mean, I'll tell you the Ravens sports 630 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: he wins last season got me a lot of food 631 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: from the food trucks. You had the peanut butter. Yeah, 632 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 1: that was it was a great food here. Um, just 633 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: to be quick on it, Scott, I think, uh, I 634 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: think it's you can get some incredible experiences. And also 635 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 1: I think that, you know, to be on a serious 636 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: note to it is you can see that the level 637 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,280 Speaker 1: of preparation and the care that the Ravens put in employees. 638 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 1: You can see that in listening to Dick, you know, 639 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: as he talks about what it's going to take for 640 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 1: the building to reopen um. I don't think every organization 641 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 1: is that way. So I think that yeah, and you 642 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 1: get the donations that have been made, like all that stuff, 643 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 1: I think is is one of the best. Like you 644 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: can feel proud about working for the Ravens. And I'm 645 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 1: not just saying that because I work for them, but 646 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: like you can look at those things and feel proud 647 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 1: about working for the Ravens. Absolutely, And let's be honest, 648 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: there's nothing that beats the game they win. I mean 649 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: when when you're when you're part of the team and 650 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 1: you you contribute in whatever way you do, and and 651 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: for us it's small, right compared to a lot of people. 652 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: But when you contribute to that in any way. Um, 653 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: it just it feels awesome, like even if you're not 654 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 1: a player. Right. So the next question is another kind 655 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 1: of interesting question, is from alex Antwinson from Sweden, and 656 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,320 Speaker 1: he says, what's it okay to call yourself a legit 657 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: Ravens fan? Like? What do you have to do to 658 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: make sure that you're a legit Ravens fan? Is it 659 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: just enough to say you support them and then all 660 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're a Ravens fan. He doesn't live 661 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 1: in the United States, so he just wants to know 662 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: that he's doing it right. First of all, Yeah, if 663 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: you if you're a Ravens fan, you don't have to 664 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:33,400 Speaker 1: get a signed piece of paper to to make it official. 665 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: There's no declaration. If you're a Raves fan, you're a 666 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 1: Ravens fan. Who cares when anybody else says, I think 667 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 1: you have to get big trust tattooed across your chest. 668 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: Do you have that? Well, I have a Maryland tattoo. Yeah, 669 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 1: but that's not what you just said. You said dress 670 00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 1: that's gonna be the next one. He does. Well, yeah, 671 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 1: you know, once I I will get it, once I 672 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: can go to the tattoo parlor being safe Garrett. He 673 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: said he does sign his email signature as big Trust, 674 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 1: so I think that cares something. Um, he says. His 675 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: suggestion is because we were talking about the food and 676 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 1: other press boxes, he thinks maybe we should do a 677 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: draft based on the other team press box food. I mean, 678 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 1: I don't have it memorized as well as I need to. 679 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: I want to do a Netflix draft. Netflix draft would 680 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 1: be good. Yeah, like some of the like bigger series 681 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: on Netflix and we go through that. Yeah. I think 682 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 1: that's a good idea. That's perfect. Yeah.
