This is how you know. Adam Silva, Yo, 176 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: you got a dilemma on your hand, whether you know 177 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: it or not, but yo, we don't have no game changes. 178 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: Who's the Kobe, Who's the Lebron?

I 187 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 1: was even talking to the Great will I was, you 188 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: know the cats. Let's read was was that the practice 189 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: as much as you see. And I've spent time around 190 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: the captain when we did when the guard was eating Yo, 191 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 1: You're like, yo, that's Willis read. Here comes Willis and 192 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: and they all said, you know, they were walking me 193 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: through players they thought, uh, you know, we're good, not good. 194 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: And you know it's true like in the league right now, 195 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: I mean like the guys you mentioned Kobe's obviously how 196 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: but like how many players are true blue max game 197 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: changing players. There's like Lebron Durant, maybe Harden. You know, 198 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: we could say Steph but it's a weird thing because 199 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: he's out there, uh you know, on that great team. 200 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: And you know, at this point in his career he's 201 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: a little older. Um the Greek week maybe maybe not yet, 202 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: not yet, nothing is nothing is coming into the league 203 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: as a superstar at the game changer. This is one 204 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: of the weakest drafts that we have seen in our 205 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: lifetime because, Yo, the league has already established Kevin Durant. 206 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: Fucking uh Steph Curry, who Lebron, You're not coming there? Yeah, Harden, Yeah, 207 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: you're not coming in there. Uh, superseding that. So who 208 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: do you see in that level? I gotta be honest. 209 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: I mean as far as in this draft, I don't 210 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: know much about it. I don't know much about the 211 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: guys I'm gonna be you know, I don't know you 212 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: know much about it. Like I'm not gonna front like 213 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: I know about it. Um. And you know, obviously this 214 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 1: kid Trey Young, you know, he's young. He's a little dude, 215 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: skinny dude like that. They said that about Steph, but 216 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: you know, is lightning gonna strike again? Can you cook? 217 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: Just because he's a little dude and he shoots. I 218 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: mean Steph Curry's Yo, Steph, tell you that dude will 219 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: fizzle out. They try to compare him to a one 220 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 1: of a kind player. You can't do that, yo, just 221 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: because he's just because he's a light skinned, skinny dude 222 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 1: and he shoots. Na na let him do his ship, 223 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: but you can't compare him to one of the great 224 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: players of all time. It's a lot of undo pressure 225 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: on Trey Young and and I think it's, uh, you 226 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: shouldn't do that. Let's see how he does. I don't 227 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be good because he's short. You ain't 228 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: gonna get that shot off. Man. Like that in the league, man, Yeah, 229 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 1: I mean like Steph Curry is two time m v 230 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: P dude. That's like saying, oh, somebody's the next Steve Nash. 231 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: You can't even predict that ship. Steph Curry is an icon. 232 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: He's not just a regular ballplayer. It's it's some different ship. 233 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: He's update with Jordan, these dudes man, as far as 234 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: a marketability and just everything revolutionizing basketball, as far as 235 00:13:54,240 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: shooting every more everything.

You might hear some beeping, some horns. 547 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:14,959 Speaker 1: I'm with a quintessential New Yorker who showed up early 548 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: surprisingly told me you you have issues with time. You know, 549 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:26,959 Speaker 1: the voice Mike stray Hand is in the house.

That's surprising 552 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: me because you're like, got seventeen jobs. You're making money 553 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: on top of money on top of money. And one 554 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: thing I would be surprised about was that you even 555 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: mentioned that you could show up. How could you afford 556 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: to be late? I first think I showed up from 557 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 1: my job on top like this foolishness and the job. 558 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: But you know, my friends, it's like, I gotta have 559 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 1: a lunch with this, I gotta do that I got. 560 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, I can fudge that. When would you text 561 00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 1: and say, yo, I'm running late? Like for you, when 562 00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: are you late? It's not a work thing. Five minutes, 563 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: ten minutes. I would text you probably five minutes before, 564 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: five minutes before I should be there. I will text you. 565 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: I'll tell you when I'm gonna be there, so you're 566 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: not just like I'm gonna be late and I'll just 567 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: get there when I get there. No, no, no, And 568 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 1: I have courtesy. I'm not. I'm not a jackass like 569 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 1: I got courtesy to people. Man. Yeah, I'll give you 570 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: a little warning, but I'm and I believe me. I'm 571 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 1: trying to get there, but I'm probably late because I 572 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: was laying on the couch and I'm going like cutting 573 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: it into the last minute. You know, I'm just that's 574 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 1: just me. I can't help myself. Now, Is this a 575 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 1: football thing? Is this? Like? Where did you get? Man? 576 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,360 Speaker 1: Was that real? What he would talk about five minutes early. 577 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: If you're not five minutes early, you're late. So now 578 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 1: my my watch is set five minutes early. Everything in 579 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 1: my everything is five minutes early. It's set five minutes early. 580 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: So when I don't have to do something that's structured 581 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 1: that's Tom Coughlin or work, then I'm probably five minutes late. 582 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 1: So this is like a REBELLI this is like, yeah, 583 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: it's a rebellion thing. I really do. I think deep 584 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: down I need some psychos psychological help to get me 585 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: through it because it's definitely rebellions. So infamous you have 586 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 1: an infamous schedule, Like we're we're right now, we're in June. 587 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: Where's no football season? So when when football season is 588 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: going through? Uh? When going down? Walk me through your 589 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:29,760 Speaker 1: busiest part of your week. Well, you know it was different. 590 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:31,919 Speaker 1: My schedules changed so much of the last few years. 591 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: So before when I first started after football, I was 592 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: just doing football. I was just doing Fox and that 593 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: was great. Man. I would wake up and on a 594 00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,760 Speaker 1: Sunday morning, I'm in the studio at five thirty six am, 595 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:50,439 Speaker 1: but I'm out of the studio five pm and I'm 596 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: off for six days. I show up a Sunday and 597 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: do it again. But then when I started doing the 598 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: show with Kelly, then that was Monday through Friday in 599 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 1: New York, Hop on a plane. Like Monday, I I 600 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 1: wake up What's that show? With a little later, so 601 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: I would wake up about seven forty five because I 602 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:16,399 Speaker 1: could walk to the studio to on air do the show. 603 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 1: That was five days a week Friday. After that show, 604 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: Hop on a plane, fly to l A Saturday, off Sunday, 605 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: Fox Studio, five thirty in the morning to five pm. 606 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: Back on the plane, land, go home, sleep two hours, 607 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,720 Speaker 1: get up, go do Live on Monday, and just repeat 608 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: the cycle. And this year you got Thursday Night Football. 609 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 1: So this year is a little different because now I'm 610 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: on g M A And part of the deal was 611 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 1: I don't work Mondays, but I do. Occasionally they'll call 612 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,200 Speaker 1: and say we have something big. We really wish if 613 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,280 Speaker 1: it would you mind, So I don't mind that I'll 614 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 1: be in on a Monday, but to do that, g 615 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,839 Speaker 1: M A's earlier. So by the time I get off 616 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: the plane, I'm literally going from a plane straight to 617 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 1: a studio with no sleep, and god knows what I 618 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 1: could say, So it better be careful with that.

Gosh, look at that guy. But then 655 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: the second we put on the pads. I felt like 656 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 1: I was the baddest man on the planet. Once I 657 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 1: trapped a helmet on, I was gonna bully you. I 658 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: was gonna keep pressure on you, like Mike Tyson when 659 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: he fought people. Mike Tyson and said it back and 660 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,400 Speaker 1: and and okay, let me see how you're gonna punch. 661 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 1: Mike Tyson attacked you. And then I always thought to myself, 662 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: what's the worst thing If you're playing basketball and somebody's 663 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: who's guarding you is just all up on you. You 664 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: like men get away from me. Like so I always 665 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 1: kept pressure, always tried to keep pressure on you, keep 666 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: bullying you, because eventually your will either you're gonna have 667 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 1: the will to continue this for four quarter that you're 668 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: gonna quit, and I'm gonna make the players I want 669 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: to make, And thank goodness for me, it worked and 670 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: I was able to make more players than not. I 671 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: know you were a hip hop head. I used to 672 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 1: see you at like different concerts, and I remember when 673 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 1: you were playing I was like, oh snap, Mike, Mike 674 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 1: strands at this or I remember I saw you like 675 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,840 Speaker 1: the hip Hop Honors when you're you know, and I 676 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: was like, you know, I had heard like, oh it 677 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: Mike Straining this, and I think I saw you at 678 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: a day lost Soul show maybe in l A, so 679 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 1: I know you. Like, but I was like, how do 680 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 1: I talk to Mike Tran Because like, I could talk 681 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 1: just football, I could talk just you know what you 682 00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: do now, I could talk to hip hop. But one 683 00:39:55,840 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 1: of the things that you did, especially when you were tired, 684 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: it wasn't really like that, Like social media wasn't what 685 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 1: it is now. But like everything is a hodgepod, just's 686 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:11,280 Speaker 1: social media. Um, movie stars are doing TV, TV stars 687 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: are doing social media, huge stars are doing commercials. And 688 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,920 Speaker 1: you were sort of like a lynchpin, a game changer 689 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 1: of that because no one would have thought, I mean, 690 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: you were good personality, but no one would have suspected 691 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 1: this bully, defensive lineman for the New York good personality. 692 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:31,400 Speaker 1: But no, this is like Michael Strm's gonna be hosting 693 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 1: Good Morning America. Nobody thought a guy would a gap 694 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,880 Speaker 1: in his teeth would be mainstream on TV. Had a 695 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 1: friend of mine who said, you the only man to 696 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 1: make a living talking on TV who can't say the 697 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:44,320 Speaker 1: letter s without spitting on people? Have you perfected the 698 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: letter s. I know I still have and I still 699 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: spit on people, but it's all good. But you know, hey, man, 700 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,359 Speaker 1: I'm a true believer that you may start in one thing, 701 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 1: but it does not limit you to only do that 702 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: one thing. And I think a lot of people they're 703 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 1: taught all. I mean, this is what I do, and 704 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: that's all I can do. So when that's over, then 705 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,480 Speaker 1: my life is over. What am I gonna be? I'm lost? 706 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 1: And now it was tough to quit football and retire 707 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: from football. And even though I knew I was gonna 708 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 1: go to Fox and I was gonna talk about TV 709 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: or football and all that stuff, it was still hard. 710 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 1: It's still hard to leave something you've done your whole life. 711 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,839 Speaker 1: Then you don't know anything else. But at some point 712 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: you're not doing that anymore. Right. I wasn't a guy 713 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 1: who walked into my house and I had trophies all 714 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 1: over the place, and like you gotta walk in and 715 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 1: see this is what I do. What I do is 716 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 1: not who I am. That's what I do. But what 717 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: was the division? Because I mean there was people that 718 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: do it, like Frank Gifford, of course O. J. Simpson 719 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,399 Speaker 1: did it. But like when you retired it wasn't really 720 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 1: who was like who was the template that you were like, 721 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 1: I want to do like this because now we got 722 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall. He's making You're like, okay, well he could 723 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,800 Speaker 1: be the next Mike Strayhand, Like you sort of like 724 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: configured this whole thing. But I mean, we're not talking mainstream, 725 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: we're talking like good Morning America. But I gotta I 726 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 1: got an incredible business partner in Constance Swarts and Constance 727 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 1: I gotta say, as the one who saw it me, 728 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 1: I'm just kind of the worker man, like I'm just 729 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 1: doing it and I'm enjoying it and I'm doing it 730 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 1: and I'm and I just did stuff because it was fun. 731 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 1: I enjoying it. And she had the vision. I remember 732 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: going on I filled in for Regions when he's on vacation, 733 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,879 Speaker 1: the first time I ever did that show. And once 734 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 1: I left, we left. After I did it, she said 735 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 1: to me, this is what you're gonna do. This is 736 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 1: what you're gonna do. And I looked at her, like 737 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 1: what are you talking about? Like that was cool. I 738 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 1: would love to do it, but nobody's gonna give me 739 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 1: a job. I'm a big old fact football player. Nobody 740 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:39,440 Speaker 1: knows who I am, and twenty guests appearances later come back, 741 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 1: kept having me come back, and I end up with 742 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 1: that job, and then everything just kind of took off 743 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 1: from there and then to be on Good Morning America 744 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:50,279 Speaker 1: is I'm still amazed at that. But the way it 745 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: was explained to me, because I said, you know, what 746 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,400 Speaker 1: am I doing. I'm not a news guy, you know, 747 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 1: and and consider myself to be a well informed guy. 748 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 1: I consider myself to be smart, but I don't consider 749 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 1: myself to be a traditional journalist. And as they explained 750 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:07,799 Speaker 1: to me that, you know, the way the world has changed. 751 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 1: You talked about social media. Social media has changed the world. Now, 752 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:12,319 Speaker 1: how do you get your news? You pick up your 753 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 1: phone in the morning, you scroll through your your fees 754 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 1: or whatever it may be. But they said, the delivery 755 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: of news on TV is different. They want to see 756 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 1: people that don't feel like just a buttoned up you 757 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,239 Speaker 1: know on Today's this happened? They don't. You don't want that. 758 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 1: You want somebody who in the way you can relate to, 759 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 1: somebody who's delivering you the news that you think are 760 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 1: trustworthy and honest. And I think that's been the key. 761 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 1: And for me, just trying to interject and be who 762 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 1: I am, and everything that I do has helped. Like, 763 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: I don't do a job where I gotta act like 764 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: somebody else, right, because that's that's that's work, right. I 765 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 1: don't want to work that hard. I got you. I 766 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 1: work that hard playing football out there trying to be 767 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: a bully. I got you. I don't want to work 768 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 1: that hard after I retire from that. Do you feel 769 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 1: comfortable now? I mean the amount of hours you talk 770 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 1: about reps and a ball they say raps reps. The 771 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:05,960 Speaker 1: amount of reps hours, I mean it's hundreds, thousands, millions. 772 00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: I don't even know of live television that you've done 773 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 1: with uh, you know, with the fillings with your own 774 00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: show with Good Morning America, with Fox Football. I mean 775 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:19,880 Speaker 1: it's like, do you feel totally comfortable doing it now? 776 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 1: Do you feel as comfortable now being on live TV 777 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 1: as Michael Strahan, the reporter, the personality as you did 778 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 1: when you were in your zone playing football? You know 779 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:35,840 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like, you know what, I feel good, 780 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: But even in football and even the same thing now, 781 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 1: I want stuff to be perfect and not a perfectionist 782 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 1: to a fault. Some people are perfectionist to a fault, 783 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 1: like they will just kill themselves over me. I'll do it, 784 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 1: and if I mess it up, it bothers me for 785 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: a minute. But then just like in a game of football, 786 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,359 Speaker 1: Oh god, I got just slam me. Oh I didn't 787 00:44:57,400 --> 00:44:59,800 Speaker 1: make the play. I missed that tackle. Well, they're about 788 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 1: to run on another play. I can't be thinking about 789 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 1: what I just grew up on, so I would just 790 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,799 Speaker 1: I bury. I'm perfection into a sense that I want 791 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 1: to get it right and I don't like messing up, 792 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 1: and I don't like you telling me a hundred times 793 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 1: how to do it. Tell me once, and I'll kill 794 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 1: myself to make it right because I don't want to 795 00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: disappoint anybody, and I don't want to disappoint myself. But 796 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 1: I I kind of forget and move on. But I 797 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,920 Speaker 1: am scared every day. I'm scared in the football field 798 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 1: when I first get out there into that first hit, 799 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,640 Speaker 1: and the same way with TV, when the light come 800 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,440 Speaker 1: on and that first few words and then you settle. 801 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,279 Speaker 1: In football, you're out there on that field and and 802 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: I'm looking at that dude, I'm going, Okay, i gotta 803 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,279 Speaker 1: come off and hit this guy. And after the first hit, 804 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,359 Speaker 1: You're like, oh, I can't wait to hit him again. 805 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 1: You're you're you're in this. You're playing whether it's a 806 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,919 Speaker 1: super Bowl, big game, you're once it starts like you're 807 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,359 Speaker 1: playing ball. And that was the difference. You mentioned Super Bowl. 808 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 1: The first Super Bowl I was then be lost to 809 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,840 Speaker 1: the Ravens, and that was a difference something you have 810 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 1: to learn because the magnitude of it was so big. 811 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,719 Speaker 1: The seconds we Bowl that we won against the Patriots, 812 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 1: I remember myself a Monty Tumb and Great Rugamer were 813 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 1: the only three Guysland that Tune would ever gone to 814 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl, and Gray was a long snapper with 815 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:12,800 Speaker 1: the Patriots, Amani and the Giants.

And I'll 871 00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 1: never forget. I was working at for Live or doing 872 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,400 Speaker 1: live at the time, and Robin Roberts was doing hosting 873 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:00,880 Speaker 1: it for for ABC, and I saw her in the 874 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:02,960 Speaker 1: distance and I go over and say hello to her 875 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:05,719 Speaker 1: because I've known her for a long time. And Robin said, 876 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 1: you're nervous, and I'm going Rob and I'm like, you know, 877 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:11,720 Speaker 1: I'm so damn nervous. She said, you know what, Michael, 878 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 1: You're here because you belong here. Trust me. I came 879 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,360 Speaker 1: from sports too, so don't fill out of place. And 880 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:21,959 Speaker 1: you don't know how much those few words she said 881 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:24,960 Speaker 1: to me really helped me. I had the best time, 882 00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 1: and from then on, the nervousness kind of goes away. 883 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: The most nervous you are when you're at the Oscars. 884 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 1: Sometimes if you better make sure you don't screw up 885 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: the movie. You better make sure you don't screw up 886 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:37,000 Speaker 1: somebody's name, you know, something like that. Have you screwed 887 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:38,880 Speaker 1: up like oh hi, I'm here with Sandra Bull like 888 00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:43,440 Speaker 1: in my head, But now that didn't come out of 889 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 1: my mouth. Man, But that's like the biggest fear. But 890 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,200 Speaker 1: I think when you're interviewing somebody like Steven Spielberg and 891 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:53,160 Speaker 1: you're going, oh, man, I said, eat, that's what I'm saying, 892 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 1: like like tripping out like that, You're like, I wouldn't 893 00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 1: even this isn't part of the plan. When you're like 894 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:01,479 Speaker 1: you're getting drafted, like you know, I'm not thinking about 895 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:03,719 Speaker 1: what I do now, man, I'm not. I'm not thinking 896 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 1: about any of this. I'm just hoping that Like I said, 897 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:07,200 Speaker 1: I would tell people, I was just hoping to get 898 00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: a job so I didn't have to move back in 899 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 1: with my parents, Like that was my whole thing. I 900 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:14,800 Speaker 1: just wanted to be able to support myself. So everything 901 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 1: that's happened, I am grateful for. I am humbled by it. 902 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,160 Speaker 1: I am surprised in a lot of ways by it. 903 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 1: But I also think if you go into things with 904 00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 1: the right intentions and the right attitude, and you put 905 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:30,280 Speaker 1: in the work, then things happen and I don't do anything. 906 00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:35,359 Speaker 1: You know, I think your your attitude kind of set 907 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 1: the tone for everything else because you know, and you 908 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 1: the guy who walks in the room and people go, 909 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 1: oh god, he's here. I don't want to be that. 910 00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:43,880 Speaker 1: I want to be the guy who walks into the 911 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 1: room and you can respect me, you can know that 912 00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: I have no ill intentions, and that will get me 913 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:50,800 Speaker 1: into a lot of rooms. It's got me to a 914 00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:53,400 Speaker 1: lot of rooms. And once you're in that room, especially 915 00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:55,840 Speaker 1: in business, then you need to show that you belong 916 00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:58,279 Speaker 1: in that room and you can keep pace with that room, 917 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: or you can lead that room, and then that's when 918 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,480 Speaker 1: the other opportunities come. And for me, that's kind of 919 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: how it's gone. I've gotten into the room has been this. 920 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,680 Speaker 1: You know, the football player that he wanted to big smile, 921 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 1: you can't miss the gap and his teeth. Oh he said, 922 00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 1: the big teddy bear. But once I'm in the room, 923 00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 1: then you got to prove the talent that you have 924 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 1: can keep you there. Do you find We talked about 925 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:23,439 Speaker 1: the social media, which is obviously uh gone nuts since 926 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 1: you started playing football, Since you stopped playing football, it's 927 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:30,080 Speaker 1: like a whole new sort of aspect of life. When 928 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,720 Speaker 1: do you pay attention to he did good, he didn't 929 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 1: go do good, Mike sucked at the Oscars, Mike did 930 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 1: this with Like how much of it does it play 931 00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:41,520 Speaker 1: into you? Because I know, like like I'll take it in. 932 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 1: I try not to really believe either of it. Like 933 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 1: obviously you take the compliments, but if Joe shows Joe 934 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:49,359 Speaker 1: Schmo says I suck, I'm like, what the hell does 935 00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:52,440 Speaker 1: Joe Schmos? Yeah? You know what want I think with that? 936 00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:55,479 Speaker 1: I've learned that if somebody said everybody says something good 937 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,080 Speaker 1: would be a hundred good things and one bad thing, 938 00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:00,919 Speaker 1: and you really want to go through Twitter and rip 939 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 1: the head off of the person who said the one 940 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 1: bad thing. But if you're going to accept the good, 941 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:07,080 Speaker 1: you gotta accept that that comes with it, or just 942 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 1: remove yourself man. And for me, I think doing the 943 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 1: news every morning and when you have to talk about 944 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,280 Speaker 1: politics and all these hot button items that get everybody 945 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,680 Speaker 1: so fired up that I literally have learned to remove 946 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:23,600 Speaker 1: myself from that because I can't focus on my job 947 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:26,800 Speaker 1: if I'm worried about Twitter and somebody's feeling how you're feeling, 948 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,200 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I just need to do my job. 949 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:32,080 Speaker 1: Your opinion of me is your opinion. Your problem with 950 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:34,360 Speaker 1: me is your problem, if you have one. And and 951 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:37,319 Speaker 1: so I removed myself from from the criticism and all 952 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 1: those different things because I found it doesn't did not 953 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:45,279 Speaker 1: add anything to my life except for anxiety, right, and 954 00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:48,839 Speaker 1: and and anger. Right. And so I go to work, 955 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:52,399 Speaker 1: I do my job. I go home, and I feel great, 956 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,000 Speaker 1: and I'm not worried about some opinion of somebody who 957 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,120 Speaker 1: I don't even know, who may not even be real, right, 958 00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:00,960 Speaker 1: and who's ashamed to put their picture right up there 959 00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:03,840 Speaker 1: and who they are, And I'm letting them affect my 960 00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:08,160 Speaker 1: my my mood in my life.

You thought, Okay, 1036 00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:06,840 Speaker 1: let me start a podcast, and you don't know if 1037 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:09,800 Speaker 1: anybody's gonna listen. The next thing you know, you're like, 1038 00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:12,320 Speaker 1: oh my god, this thing is actually working. And you 1039 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:16,160 Speaker 1: can't blame it on anybody. No, coach, it's not the producer, 1040 00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 1: it's not your co host, it's it's you. So so 1041 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 1: that that's something you. You obviously care about it. So 1042 00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 1: I care about that, um constants and not. We have 1043 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 1: a production company which we are, which is we do Pyramid, 1044 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:34,920 Speaker 1: We do Jokers Wild, we do Nickelodeon Kids Sports Awards. 1045 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 1: We do quite a bit in our production company, so 1046 00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 1: to be able to do all those things, but just 1047 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 1: to build the business. I love being in front of 1048 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:43,880 Speaker 1: the camera. I love what I do, but I think 1049 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 1: the next chapter is to have things that have been 1050 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 1: created where I don't have to be the face. I 1051 00:57:49,840 --> 00:57:53,760 Speaker 1: don't have to be there seven when my face plastered 1052 00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 1: all over it, because at some point people get sick 1053 00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:58,640 Speaker 1: of you, you know, And I don't want to. I 1054 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:01,800 Speaker 1: don't want to be an old man on TV. You 1055 00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 1: don't want to be like Dick Clark. No, Dick Clark 1056 00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 1: was like seventy eighties something years on TV and then 1057 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:09,439 Speaker 1: even a couple of years. You know what I'm saying. 1058 00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 1: But that's not what I wanted. Got you now? I might, 1059 00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 1: you know. Then again, I do love host The Pyramid, 1060 00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:17,600 Speaker 1: which you came on and and did, but who knows. 1061 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 1: But I think I just want to be able to 1062 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:21,240 Speaker 1: pick and choose camera things that I think I do 1063 00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:24,440 Speaker 1: in front of the camera. And but the business end 1064 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:26,360 Speaker 1: of it is where I have a lot of interest. 1065 00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:29,520 Speaker 1: I think it challenges you in some way that I 1066 00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,920 Speaker 1: was never challenged before I got you. Yeah, um, all right. 1067 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 1: The New York Giants current, I'm going to tell you 1068 00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:38,440 Speaker 1: my opinion because I'm not trying to walk you into anything. 1069 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 1: I feel like eventually the Giants are gonna need a 1070 00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:43,120 Speaker 1: new quarterback. But I feel like, based on everything that 1071 00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:47,440 Speaker 1: we went through last year, Eli Manning, at least this year, 1072 00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:50,080 Speaker 1: God willing, he doesn't get hurt. Like it's like we're 1073 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:53,800 Speaker 1: reading up. It's like the band's getting back together. I 1074 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:55,880 Speaker 1: feel like Eli is gonna be solid this year. I 1075 00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:59,000 Speaker 1: think he even Eli at his best. You know, it's 1076 00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 1: like it was never like you never knew exactly what 1077 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:03,160 Speaker 1: was gonna happen. But I think at least we're gonna 1078 00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 1: get that he like. So my question you and I'm 1079 00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 1: I'm a giant dude. Is Eli Manning done? Why not? 1080 00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,600 Speaker 1: I think Eli had a few good years left if 1081 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:19,479 Speaker 1: you protect him, if you protect him, if if you yeah, 1082 00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:23,080 Speaker 1: but now you They brought in soldier from New England. 1083 00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 1: They brought in that everybody loves his kid or nandad 1084 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 1: this rookie. They brought in a huge guy. I don't 1085 00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:29,560 Speaker 1: know if you're gonna do a flowers if he goes 1086 00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:31,960 Speaker 1: to the other side. But it doesn't matter what side 1087 00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:33,720 Speaker 1: he's on. He can't be a revolving door like he 1088 00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:36,280 Speaker 1: was last year, just making people run through it. So 1089 00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:41,000 Speaker 1: I think if you protect Eli, he's he could be great. 1090 00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 1: He could be the guy who did what he did. 1091 00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:44,800 Speaker 1: When you want Super Bowls because he can throw the 1092 00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:46,919 Speaker 1: hell out of the ball, He's gotta give him time. 1093 00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 1: You can't have him back there rush, you can't make him, 1094 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 1: have him throw off his back foot. That's always been 1095 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 1: a weakness. And with that being said, if you protect him, 1096 00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: you can develop more plays than just a slant to 1097 00:59:56,840 --> 01:00:00,400 Speaker 1: back him Odell and make that O'Dell just trying to 1098 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:02,040 Speaker 1: figure out how to make a big play out of it. 1099 01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 1: If frustrating to watch, but that was their biggest play. 1100 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 1: It seemed like last the last few years. And you 1101 01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:09,800 Speaker 1: gotta yet, Shepherd. You got all these other guys who 1102 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 1: can say Kwan is gonna be outside with the line 1103 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 1: and with say Kwon. The thing is with say Kwam, 1104 01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:19,360 Speaker 1: you talk about Eli being done. Eli is not done 1105 01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 1: if you give him protection and if he has a 1106 01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 1: running game. Last few years they haven't had a consistent 1107 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,920 Speaker 1: running game, so you can you can just stack up 1108 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:29,440 Speaker 1: on on on Beckham and what do you have? What 1109 01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 1: is he gonna do? So? I think with a running 1110 01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:33,800 Speaker 1: game and a running back like Sa Kwan can catch 1111 01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:37,040 Speaker 1: out the backfield, oh man, the little screens, a little 1112 01:00:37,080 --> 01:00:39,480 Speaker 1: pot passes, little things that take some pressure off of 1113 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,440 Speaker 1: the rush. I think Eli is gonna be great this year. 1114 01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:44,680 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to watching it. Can you tell if 1115 01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:49,120 Speaker 1: a guy like forget Fox when you were talking football, 1116 01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:53,080 Speaker 1: forget even naming names. Can you tell you know, this 1117 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 1: is a football player. This guy is good, this guy 1118 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 1: is a bumb this guy's middle level. Like can you 1119 01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,920 Speaker 1: just because like can you see like like you could 1120 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:03,240 Speaker 1: tell yeah you Also what do you need to see 1121 01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 1: him play? Can you see him at a workout kind 1122 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:09,040 Speaker 1: of coming like se Kwon Barkley, like like I love him, yeah, 1123 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:12,000 Speaker 1: I not. Like I love that he's from New York. 1124 01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 1: I love that the Giants picked him, Like I love 1125 01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:16,920 Speaker 1: that he has star potential. He's bigger than I think 1126 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 1: people think. Man, he's built like a tree trunk big. 1127 01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:24,280 Speaker 1: He just jacked up. His name is set Kuon Barkley. 1128 01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 1: That's a Doe Pass name. I mean. But like when 1129 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:32,560 Speaker 1: you see these rookies, can you see like saying like 1130 01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 1: this guy is going to do good? Yeah, I think 1131 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 1: you can see that. And you can't go by college either. 1132 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:40,320 Speaker 1: That you can in a sense, but you never know 1133 01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:41,960 Speaker 1: how many times we've seen the guy look great in 1134 01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:43,520 Speaker 1: college and I think you know the guy the bum 1135 01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:48,040 Speaker 1: in the pros. But sa Kwan, I love what he 1136 01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:51,280 Speaker 1: did in college, but I want to see the kid. 1137 01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:53,760 Speaker 1: I want to see you work outside of when you're 1138 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:56,600 Speaker 1: in practice. That's what you that's how you may tell yeah, 1139 01:01:56,760 --> 01:02:00,080 Speaker 1: because physically most guys you're not gonna be built, like 1140 01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:01,920 Speaker 1: say Kwana, may not be as fast as him or 1141 01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 1: as strong as him. But a guy who may not 1142 01:02:04,880 --> 01:02:06,960 Speaker 1: be out of those things and realizes it, but realizes 1143 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:08,840 Speaker 1: I gotta work extra hard to get there, who was 1144 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:11,560 Speaker 1: killing himself to stay there and maintain or get better. 1145 01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:14,040 Speaker 1: That guy will end up at the end of the 1146 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:17,600 Speaker 1: day making more plays for you than a guy who 1147 01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:19,160 Speaker 1: has all the talent in the world who does not 1148 01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:21,880 Speaker 1: work because show you flashes and get you excited and 1149 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:23,760 Speaker 1: keep himself in the league for some years to make 1150 01:02:23,800 --> 01:02:26,440 Speaker 1: a little money. But you need a player who's going 1151 01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 1: to work hard. And I remember, man, my rookie year, 1152 01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 1: like LT didn't show up every day to practice, I 1153 01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 1: ain't a lot of you. He didn't show up every day, 1154 01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 1: But when he did, the dude when a hundred mouth 1155 01:02:38,720 --> 01:02:42,760 Speaker 1: per hour, chasing the ball Russian, playing every and every 1156 01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:44,800 Speaker 1: play he had to play in practice. He went a 1157 01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 1: hundred when he was when he when he was there, 1158 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:49,280 Speaker 1: and that was towards the end, and that was the 1159 01:02:49,440 --> 01:02:53,919 Speaker 1: last year, his last year. Every play one hundred mouth, pass, 1160 01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:58,520 Speaker 1: rush drills, one hundred mouth and it taught me. Damn, 1161 01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:01,040 Speaker 1: I know a Larnge table was my FAVORIT player and 1162 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:04,000 Speaker 1: I'm watching him going. I thought he was just big, strong, fast, 1163 01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 1: just better than everybody. The dude works, He's smart. He 1164 01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:11,080 Speaker 1: knew formations, which somebod I learned later, formations to know 1165 01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 1: what they're gonna do before they even do it, so 1166 01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:15,120 Speaker 1: you can know, you know when you can what you 1167 01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:17,720 Speaker 1: kind of energy need to put out there for this play, 1168 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:20,000 Speaker 1: exert for this play, if they're coming at you or not, 1169 01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:22,040 Speaker 1: if you just need to seal the backside. Like he 1170 01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 1: knew all these things. And the dude worked hard in practice. 1171 01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:28,720 Speaker 1: So when I was never say that, I you know, 1172 01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:31,360 Speaker 1: being a fan of Lawrence, I've never heard that said 1173 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:35,360 Speaker 1: because everything overshadowed it and it's natural ability and changing team. 1174 01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:37,640 Speaker 1: But what you just said, I don't think i've ever heard. 1175 01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:40,840 Speaker 1: And we've heard, we talked everything about Lawrence, I mean 1176 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,440 Speaker 1: way out there and back. But that one thing that 1177 01:03:44,560 --> 01:03:47,720 Speaker 1: you just said, I never heard that said about him. Yeah, 1178 01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 1: people just thought he was this great athlete, which he was, 1179 01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:52,400 Speaker 1: but he knew what he was doing and he worked 1180 01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:56,000 Speaker 1: at it. Man. So when I was thirteen, fourteen, fifteen 1181 01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:57,840 Speaker 1: years in the league and you can call up Oc, 1182 01:03:58,000 --> 01:03:59,280 Speaker 1: and you can call up Tuck, and you can call 1183 01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 1: up Coughling all these guys when we were in practice, 1184 01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:06,680 Speaker 1: I didn't miss practice. I didn't do that. I'm a vet, 1185 01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:08,919 Speaker 1: and I don't need to You young, young young boys 1186 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:11,040 Speaker 1: get in there and take these reps. I never did that. 1187 01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 1: I took every rep. I ran to every ball that 1188 01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:16,880 Speaker 1: was thrown down the field. I made I was staying 1189 01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,920 Speaker 1: there sometimes extra because I, first of all, need to 1190 01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 1: be I may need to work. I need to work 1191 01:04:22,720 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 1: for myself. Secondly, I'm supposed to be the guy who's 1192 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:29,240 Speaker 1: the leader here. And if your leader is not working hard, 1193 01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 1: how do you expect the other guys too? How am 1194 01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:32,480 Speaker 1: I gonna look some guy in the eye in the 1195 01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,560 Speaker 1: game when the team is marching down the field and 1196 01:04:34,640 --> 01:04:37,120 Speaker 1: gonna calmly say, hey man, let's go, like pick it up, 1197 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,960 Speaker 1: we got this, let's go. If he knows that, dude, 1198 01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:41,400 Speaker 1: you just I here talking to you and you didn't 1199 01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:43,760 Speaker 1: put in the work. Nothing you can. I would never 1200 01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:46,160 Speaker 1: want anybody ever to say that about me. And the 1201 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:48,400 Speaker 1: bottom line is when you walk away from the game 1202 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:51,520 Speaker 1: and and you hear so much about the guy you're 1203 01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:53,919 Speaker 1: gonna play against this guy is great. That guy is great. 1204 01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:57,400 Speaker 1: And O. J. Anderson, my man, gave me the best advice. 1205 01:04:57,440 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 1: He said, you're gonna hear about the reputation of this 1206 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:02,160 Speaker 1: player and that player. Don't hear. Don't listen to all 1207 01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:04,920 Speaker 1: this stuff. You play against them yourself, and you judge 1208 01:05:04,920 --> 01:05:09,200 Speaker 1: yourself from your experience. So I always thought about somebody 1209 01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:12,440 Speaker 1: hearing about oh, Michael straighthand supposed to be there, he's 1210 01:05:12,440 --> 01:05:14,840 Speaker 1: supposed to be that. I didn't want them to walk 1211 01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 1: away from the game after plan against me and going on. 1212 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:19,439 Speaker 1: He wasn't nothing, no, no, no, You're gonna you're gonna 1213 01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:21,840 Speaker 1: feel it like we may not win the game, but 1214 01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:25,240 Speaker 1: you're gonna respect me. You're gonna respect what you thought 1215 01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:27,720 Speaker 1: and gonna be probably more. I'm trying to give you 1216 01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:29,920 Speaker 1: more than what you ever heard about it, because everybody's 1217 01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:32,240 Speaker 1: trying to knock you off the pedestal when everybody knows 1218 01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:34,320 Speaker 1: your name. So I always looked at it as I'm 1219 01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:36,280 Speaker 1: out here planning for respect more than I'm playing for 1220 01:05:36,320 --> 01:05:41,440 Speaker 1: anything else. That's dope. Do you still have dreams of football, 1221 01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 1: like I mean actual while you're sleeping? Do you ever 1222 01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 1: like I was dreaming that whatever I'm coming off the line, 1223 01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:49,640 Speaker 1: or I'm dreaming that I'm somehow the quarterback, or just 1224 01:05:49,720 --> 01:05:52,360 Speaker 1: like the actual dreams of football. No, I haven't had. 1225 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:55,240 Speaker 1: I mean sleeping dreams, not like imagination. I'm talking about, like, 1226 01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,760 Speaker 1: I haven't. I haven't had those dreams in a long time. Man. 1227 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:01,120 Speaker 1: But every once in a while I'll flip on the 1228 01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:04,360 Speaker 1: TV and there'll be some football life on or some 1229 01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 1: giant chronicles, and you'll see something with your I'll see 1230 01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:10,280 Speaker 1: something with myself and I'll go an, Man, I want 1231 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:11,480 Speaker 1: to go out there and do that again. I can 1232 01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:13,120 Speaker 1: still do that. You know I can still do that? 1233 01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:15,040 Speaker 1: Is your part of your in your hand, part of 1234 01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:17,840 Speaker 1: me in my hand. Get up and you're like, oh, well, 1235 01:06:17,840 --> 01:06:19,320 Speaker 1: I'll work out, and then I'll be like, oh no, 1236 01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:21,960 Speaker 1: hell no, I'm too sored out say I couldn't do it. 1237 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:24,440 Speaker 1: But there's still a part of you that thinks you 1238 01:06:24,520 --> 01:06:27,880 Speaker 1: could do it. Because I retired and they asked me 1239 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,360 Speaker 1: to come back, and I said no. I didn't limp 1240 01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:35,120 Speaker 1: off the field. I walked. So for me, there's always 1241 01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:37,280 Speaker 1: a part of me that said, you know, if you 1242 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:41,360 Speaker 1: really wanted to, But I didn't quit physically I feel great. 1243 01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:44,800 Speaker 1: I feel better now that I fell years old. But 1244 01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:48,160 Speaker 1: mentally and in my heart, man, I was I had 1245 01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:50,120 Speaker 1: already checked out. We won the Super Bowl and I 1246 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:52,560 Speaker 1: said I'm retired and I'm done. And then oh, she 1247 01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:54,800 Speaker 1: got hurt in camp and they wanted me to come back, 1248 01:06:55,000 --> 01:07:00,320 Speaker 1: and I was close, very close to coming back for more. 1249 01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 1: And then I decided that I just know if I 1250 01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:06,120 Speaker 1: came back for one more year, it would have been 1251 01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:09,000 Speaker 1: for the wrong reasons and it would have been more just. 1252 01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:11,640 Speaker 1: I might as well go make this money, more so 1253 01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:14,560 Speaker 1: than me being able to give one, because I would 1254 01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:16,640 Speaker 1: have to be in it one and how could you 1255 01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:18,680 Speaker 1: top the way it ended? And how could you top 1256 01:07:18,760 --> 01:07:20,960 Speaker 1: the way it ended? So now I can walk down 1257 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:24,000 Speaker 1: the street and have people go, Michael, thank you, thank 1258 01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:26,280 Speaker 1: you for that super Bowl man, and you can still 1259 01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 1: do it. And I'm going, yeah, I can, even though 1260 01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:30,720 Speaker 1: I know I can't. But that's what they remember, they 1261 01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:35,280 Speaker 1: remember going out on top. That was storybook. That was unbelievable.

Animal. 1299 01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:35,240 Speaker 1: He's an animal. He's a beast. That's why you want 1300 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:37,960 Speaker 1: to kick his head. Jealous and winning, I don't know 1301 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:40,080 Speaker 1: why they're jealous and man and winning like as much 1302 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:42,760 Speaker 1: as I can't as much I love seeing him lose. Yo. 1303 01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:44,640 Speaker 1: The reason why I love seeing him lose because he 1304 01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:48,760 Speaker 1: wins so much. He's a savage. He's a savage, and 1305 01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:52,240 Speaker 1: anyone who tries to say anything else is distorted. Any 1306 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 1: quarterbacks that you see that will go up and down 1307 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:56,760 Speaker 1: to the alignement and like get up on their faith 1308 01:09:56,800 --> 01:09:59,880 Speaker 1: and get the crowd like he's got.

You know what you should do, Mike. 1320 01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:32,920 Speaker 1: You should if you put the photograph like in your pocket. 1321 01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:34,479 Speaker 1: I know it'll screw up the photo it. But if 1322 01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:35,920 Speaker 1: you fold like a piece of paper and you just 1323 01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, can you sign this? And then he takes 1324 01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:40,320 Speaker 1: it out and he's like make him do it like that, 1325 01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:42,080 Speaker 1: like so he thinks he just came them all. I'm 1326 01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:43,960 Speaker 1: just gonna say, hey, man, I got this picture here, 1327 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:45,960 Speaker 1: signed it.

Um, when I ask you, let's 1330 01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:57,320 Speaker 1: exclude Tom Brady from it because we just talked about 1331 01:10:57,360 --> 01:11:01,320 Speaker 1: him and I acknowledge his greatness. Who's the greatest quarterback 1332 01:11:01,400 --> 01:11:04,639 Speaker 1: that you played against? Outside of obviously Tom is one 1333 01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:07,479 Speaker 1: of them. Who's the greatest quarterback that you did during 1334 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 1: your period of playing that you were like, this guy 1335 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:14,200 Speaker 1: is sick to one guy who comes to mind that 1336 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:19,200 Speaker 1: I know I and I I always was like, damn 1337 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:25,160 Speaker 1: this guy. The mate was um Traman, Okay, the whole team, 1338 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:30,040 Speaker 1: but Aikman was was a stud Why what about him? 1339 01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:34,880 Speaker 1: His presence, his strength, He he would get rid of 1340 01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 1: that ball. I mean he knew what he was going 1341 01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:39,040 Speaker 1: with the ball before it even getting his hands from 1342 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:41,800 Speaker 1: the center. I mean Aikman was just a stud man. 1343 01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:44,200 Speaker 1: That whole team was just put together really well. He 1344 01:11:44,360 --> 01:11:48,639 Speaker 1: was just stud. Brett Farve always always, I mean Brett 1345 01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 1: Farve one of the greatest like improvisers to just make 1346 01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:56,519 Speaker 1: things happen. Um, you know a guy who's underappreciated, who 1347 01:11:56,680 --> 01:11:59,000 Speaker 1: carried a team on his back in the city. He 1348 01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:02,760 Speaker 1: didn't appreciate him Don McNab when he first got there. 1349 01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:05,479 Speaker 1: They had like Debt Murr. He was split time with 1350 01:12:05,640 --> 01:12:08,560 Speaker 1: Debt Murder and we were praying at debtmer State in 1351 01:12:08,600 --> 01:12:11,519 Speaker 1: the game because we didn't want to see McNab McNabb 1352 01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:16,120 Speaker 1: with the Beast and carried that team. And Donovan was 1353 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:20,120 Speaker 1: another guy, always respected him, sacked him more than anybody else. Yeah, 1354 01:12:20,160 --> 01:12:24,599 Speaker 1: I and I no, no, no, that was I said. 1355 01:12:24,720 --> 01:12:26,560 Speaker 1: I tied it sack at him. Yeah. I had like 1356 01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:28,679 Speaker 1: three and a half four sacks in the game. John Runyon, 1357 01:12:28,760 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 1: thank you, congrats. Uh. And then the hardest guy to 1358 01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:39,800 Speaker 1: sack was Jake the Snake Plumber Wow, because he could 1359 01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:42,800 Speaker 1: just he he just he was. He was limber man 1360 01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:46,439 Speaker 1: cat would just slide out of your grip, just slide 1361 01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:48,439 Speaker 1: out of your grip. And Doug Flute was no joke either. 1362 01:12:48,560 --> 01:12:54,640 Speaker 1: He was a little dug little man. Yeah, exactly, but 1363 01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:57,519 Speaker 1: it was it was a challenge like chasing, chasing, you know, 1364 01:12:57,800 --> 01:12:59,800 Speaker 1: all these guys around. To be honest with you, but 1365 01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:04,040 Speaker 1: I always appreciate Eightman, always appreciated how he was the 1366 01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:06,280 Speaker 1: play with just stoic, you know what I mean. Like, 1367 01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:08,960 Speaker 1: so I was on the other team, felt confident in 1368 01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:14,960 Speaker 1: him right, like he had that Dallas cow like you know, yeah, 1369 01:13:15,120 --> 01:13:19,000 Speaker 1: I'm I'm the I'm the dude. If if who's the 1370 01:13:19,080 --> 01:13:22,439 Speaker 1: one player offensive that would you'd have to go against it? 1371 01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:24,360 Speaker 1: I say, right now, ten years out of the league, 1372 01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:26,479 Speaker 1: where you like, Yeah, that was I had to get 1373 01:13:26,520 --> 01:13:28,800 Speaker 1: some sleep for him. One or two guys, Are you like? Man? 1374 01:13:28,920 --> 01:13:32,759 Speaker 1: That was Eric Williams, offensive tackle for the Dallas Cowboys. 1375 01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:38,160 Speaker 1: Even no joke. How big was he? Man? I swear 1376 01:13:38,240 --> 01:13:40,519 Speaker 1: he's probably probably It seemed like a monster to me, 1377 01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:44,639 Speaker 1: but he's probably about six five six six three hundred 1378 01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:48,799 Speaker 1: and twenty five pound three twenty But it wasn't the size, 1379 01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:50,560 Speaker 1: I mean the side I like it. I wanted you 1380 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:52,479 Speaker 1: to be bigger so you could go yeah, no, no, no, 1381 01:13:52,600 --> 01:13:55,479 Speaker 1: I just I didn't mind that because the bigger you are, 1382 01:13:56,080 --> 01:13:57,680 Speaker 1: I felt I was gonna be that much more of 1383 01:13:57,720 --> 01:14:00,720 Speaker 1: a better athlete than you, and I felt like I 1384 01:14:00,760 --> 01:14:03,680 Speaker 1: could get you off balance. And then it was more 1385 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:05,479 Speaker 1: impressive to be the big guy than it was to 1386 01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:07,920 Speaker 1: be the small guy. And the smaller guys were harder 1387 01:14:07,960 --> 01:14:13,599 Speaker 1: because smaller guys wore more athletic and their yeah you're 1388 01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:17,400 Speaker 1: feet and all this stuff. He Eric Williams. Three guys, 1389 01:14:17,600 --> 01:14:24,560 Speaker 1: Eric Williams the meanest nastiest dude. That's where to do 1390 01:14:24,720 --> 01:14:27,160 Speaker 1: was men. He was nasty man, he was illegal, he 1391 01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:29,519 Speaker 1: didn't care throw a flag. I'll do it again. Yeah, 1392 01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:32,280 Speaker 1: Eric was dirty, but in a good way. Made me 1393 01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:34,360 Speaker 1: put me on my toes, like I couldn't get out 1394 01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:36,800 Speaker 1: there and mess around and and not be on top 1395 01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:41,720 Speaker 1: of my game with him. Leon Searcy another underestimated guy, 1396 01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:47,800 Speaker 1: played in Pittsburgh and Jacksonville. He was a tough I 1397 01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:50,680 Speaker 1: I don't even I don't want to see him ever again. Uh. 1398 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:53,920 Speaker 1: And then John Runying Okay, Like I had a lot 1399 01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:57,280 Speaker 1: of success against John Runying, but that was because I 1400 01:14:57,400 --> 01:14:59,240 Speaker 1: had to study that cat man. I had to be 1401 01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:01,680 Speaker 1: at the best. Yeah, he brought out the best of me. 1402 01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:04,639 Speaker 1: I had to be ready for him every every time. 1403 01:15:04,680 --> 01:15:06,439 Speaker 1: He's one of the strong. Once he puts his hands 1404 01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:08,560 Speaker 1: on you was over. It was a wrap he was. 1405 01:15:08,720 --> 01:15:11,720 Speaker 1: You could feel his strength. Oh yeah, who who were 1406 01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:14,599 Speaker 1: the quickest guys off the line of scrimmage? Running backs 1407 01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:17,120 Speaker 1: were like you were just like, yo, what is this? 1408 01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:20,200 Speaker 1: Barry Sanders would be over there by the couch and 1409 01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:21,880 Speaker 1: the the next thing you know, he's out there on 1410 01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:26,200 Speaker 1: the street. Barry Sanders was I you can't even explain it. 1411 01:15:26,840 --> 01:15:30,439 Speaker 1: But he was a guy, his his offensive lineman, I 1412 01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:33,080 Speaker 1: sweat everybody plays. They would hand him the ball, his 1413 01:15:33,240 --> 01:15:35,280 Speaker 1: own lineman would turn around and watch him run. They 1414 01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:36,960 Speaker 1: wasn't even trying to block. I'm like, come on, man, 1415 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:39,600 Speaker 1: I know he's amazing. But helped the dude out and 1416 01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:41,360 Speaker 1: he you think you had him. And he was the 1417 01:15:41,479 --> 01:15:44,639 Speaker 1: only player, He's the only running back that we would 1418 01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 1: do special tackling drills for in practice. What we would 1419 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:52,840 Speaker 1: take the quickest little like jitterbug wide receiver from the 1420 01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 1: practice squad and we would make him Barry Sanders. And 1421 01:15:56,640 --> 01:15:59,240 Speaker 1: then it would be the drill where everybody on defense 1422 01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:01,160 Speaker 1: had to swarm to the ball and create a perfect 1423 01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:03,720 Speaker 1: like circle like a ring, so he couldn't get out. 1424 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:06,479 Speaker 1: Every other running back you just practiced regular. Nobody even 1425 01:16:06,560 --> 01:16:09,280 Speaker 1: worried about that. For him, we only had special drills. 1426 01:16:09,439 --> 01:16:12,679 Speaker 1: And when he so low to the ground, he Barry 1427 01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:15,160 Speaker 1: was low to the ground, but he was strong right 1428 01:16:18,200 --> 01:16:21,800 Speaker 1: man like built just a solid and and but Barry 1429 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:25,000 Speaker 1: was so quick and he just made moves that you 1430 01:16:25,080 --> 01:16:27,880 Speaker 1: can't even think about. These moves. They're just unconscious for 1431 01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:30,400 Speaker 1: him to do those things because most people couldn't do 1432 01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:32,519 Speaker 1: things like that. He faster than you thought. He was 1433 01:16:32,560 --> 01:16:34,800 Speaker 1: gonna be, quicker than you thought it was gonna be. 1434 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:37,760 Speaker 1: And I remember I tackled him one time down by 1435 01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 1: their goal line by myself. I'm so proud, man, I 1436 01:16:40,240 --> 01:16:42,120 Speaker 1: was a young player, tackled him. I get up and 1437 01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 1: I go yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. He looked at 1438 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:47,599 Speaker 1: me and said I'll be back, and he never talked. 1439 01:16:48,479 --> 01:16:51,040 Speaker 1: So for Barry to say that scared the hell out 1440 01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:53,080 Speaker 1: of me. I'm like compary. I wanted to apologize Barby. 1441 01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, man, I don't really mean to come back. 1442 01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:56,600 Speaker 1: I don't I don't want you to come back. I 1443 01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 1: don't want you to come back. Are you like I 1444 01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:01,160 Speaker 1: remember when I did? When I did the pyramid, you 1445 01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:02,880 Speaker 1: were you were talking about Cam Newton was on. We 1446 01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:05,559 Speaker 1: were talking about the size of the players. Now, Cam 1447 01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:12,519 Speaker 1: Newton is bigger than you in your prime, he's a quarterback. Well, 1448 01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:17,240 Speaker 1: in my prime, I'm probably have him by weight, but 1449 01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:20,120 Speaker 1: then at the end of my career, by the end 1450 01:17:20,160 --> 01:17:22,479 Speaker 1: of my career, he has me by weight. I mean, 1451 01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:25,920 Speaker 1: but he looks like a superman. He's yeah, he's built 1452 01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:28,360 Speaker 1: like he's built like one of those plastic like the 1453 01:17:28,520 --> 01:17:31,800 Speaker 1: figure red figure like action figure dolls. The size of 1454 01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:34,400 Speaker 1: the players like you probably, I mean you were a 1455 01:17:34,520 --> 01:17:36,120 Speaker 1: sort of a head of you. You were big when 1456 01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:38,320 Speaker 1: I was younger, I was bigger, but then when not 1457 01:17:38,360 --> 01:17:41,080 Speaker 1: everybody my last three years, we weigh in every Friday, 1458 01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:43,960 Speaker 1: by the way, and for every pound or even if 1459 01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,160 Speaker 1: you're off by two ounces, you gotta lose it. But 1460 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:49,320 Speaker 1: it's three hundred dollars for each pound that you go over. 1461 01:17:49,479 --> 01:17:52,400 Speaker 1: That you go over. But the size of these guys, now, 1462 01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:58,000 Speaker 1: just since you left the league through bigger huge, did 1463 01:17:58,040 --> 01:18:01,120 Speaker 1: you ever imagine there'd be quarterbacks like this big? No? 1464 01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:04,280 Speaker 1: I never like Cam. Do you look at Cam Newton 1465 01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:08,680 Speaker 1: and you think he's like like a tight end? I mean, 1466 01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:11,599 Speaker 1: he's you, but he's just ripped up. He's a big guy. 1467 01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:14,800 Speaker 1: It's like like an Adonis or something. Man. But it's 1468 01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:17,760 Speaker 1: amazing that this guy is a freaking quarterback, because that's 1469 01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:19,960 Speaker 1: usually the kid growing up that they look at him 1470 01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:21,840 Speaker 1: and they will never never make him a quarterback. And 1471 01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:24,360 Speaker 1: he's too good at everything else, so we'll just get 1472 01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:26,120 Speaker 1: him the ball some other ways so that he can 1473 01:18:26,200 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 1: have some open field to run. They would never let 1474 01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:30,080 Speaker 1: him be the quarterback unless he's in the yard with 1475 01:18:30,200 --> 01:18:32,160 Speaker 1: his brothers, you know what I'm saying. So to see 1476 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:34,800 Speaker 1: Cam doing what he's doing at his size is really impressive. 1477 01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:38,439 Speaker 1: And I think he's a he's like the super breed 1478 01:18:38,520 --> 01:18:43,120 Speaker 1: of quarterback. Is he great? He can be? Obviously he 1479 01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:47,400 Speaker 1: can be great had he reached that status yet as 1480 01:18:47,439 --> 01:18:50,600 Speaker 1: far as like Hall of Fame not yet and and 1481 01:18:50,720 --> 01:18:54,120 Speaker 1: not so much that's necessarily I'm gonna say accomplishments or 1482 01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:56,400 Speaker 1: whatever it may be. But he hasn't been around long 1483 01:18:56,479 --> 01:18:58,080 Speaker 1: er tho. I mean it takes some It takes some 1484 01:18:58,160 --> 01:19:00,400 Speaker 1: time to put that put that work in. So I 1485 01:19:00,479 --> 01:19:02,599 Speaker 1: but do I think he can be? Absolutely? Of course 1486 01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:05,840 Speaker 1: he can be. Who who in the NFL playing right 1487 01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:10,760 Speaker 1: now is great? Aaron Rodgers? Like I can't even figure 1488 01:19:10,800 --> 01:19:14,479 Speaker 1: him out because the dude, the way he gets out 1489 01:19:14,520 --> 01:19:17,479 Speaker 1: of the pocket, he can throw the ball from any angle. 1490 01:19:17,920 --> 01:19:20,559 Speaker 1: A lot of quarterbacks, if they're not set a certain way, 1491 01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:22,559 Speaker 1: is it play is over. They can't do nowhere. They're 1492 01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:24,080 Speaker 1: gonna throw it up and get a pick or whatever 1493 01:19:24,360 --> 01:19:26,479 Speaker 1: this cat and needle and throw a ball the needle 1494 01:19:26,479 --> 01:19:27,920 Speaker 1: on the hate stack and just throw it through a 1495 01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:31,439 Speaker 1: needle holding a needle from anywhere, from any angle, being 1496 01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:34,960 Speaker 1: chased going out of bounds. That green Bathy Dallas game 1497 01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:36,719 Speaker 1: when he threw that ball to the tight end along 1498 01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:39,280 Speaker 1: the sideline after scrambling, Now, how do you do that? 1499 01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:41,920 Speaker 1: He is? He is the most special quarterback in the 1500 01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:44,760 Speaker 1: league right now, without of doubt. I agree. What about 1501 01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:47,960 Speaker 1: running backs? Who's great? Like when I say who's a 1502 01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:51,960 Speaker 1: great running back? Great running back, hopefully hopefully say Kwon Barkley, 1503 01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:55,479 Speaker 1: but proven though, like guys that are like said hopefully him. Yeah, 1504 01:19:56,600 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 1: we mean Levian bell Is. I think he's great, and 1505 01:20:02,240 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 1: I don't know why they don't want to pay the guy. 1506 01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:05,640 Speaker 1: You know, I think we're right what you don't want 1507 01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:09,320 Speaker 1: to do? You know? Yeah, But running backs are different. 1508 01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:12,160 Speaker 1: They think at the age of thirty, running backs are done. 1509 01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:16,960 Speaker 1: So even Adrian Peterson, as great as he was when 1510 01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:19,160 Speaker 1: he hit thirty, it's like, oh, we don't really want 1511 01:20:19,160 --> 01:20:21,400 Speaker 1: to pay him anymore. We don't, you know, running back 1512 01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:23,120 Speaker 1: they feel a dime a dozen you can kind of 1513 01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:25,240 Speaker 1: get a running back, get some good years, and then 1514 01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:28,439 Speaker 1: you get rid of him. And most teams David Johnson 1515 01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:31,800 Speaker 1: out of out of Arizona, great player, but most teams 1516 01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:34,759 Speaker 1: don't have one running back. It's kind of like running 1517 01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:37,880 Speaker 1: back by committing. Why is that because they didn't wearing tear. 1518 01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:40,800 Speaker 1: I think it's wearing tear and you kind of need 1519 01:20:40,920 --> 01:20:42,880 Speaker 1: to running back to make it through a season now, 1520 01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:45,560 Speaker 1: so so it's kind of like wearing tear of that. 1521 01:20:45,600 --> 01:20:48,559 Speaker 1: But David Johnson, I think in Arizona is special player. 1522 01:20:49,120 --> 01:20:53,760 Speaker 1: Um I just I just a man in Pittsburgh. His 1523 01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:57,719 Speaker 1: whole thing is patient. I ever seen a guy running 1524 01:20:57,720 --> 01:20:59,800 Speaker 1: like because he's standing up. It's not like he's like 1525 01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:03,679 Speaker 1: down and hunched and he's standing up like he's waiting 1526 01:21:03,760 --> 01:21:06,200 Speaker 1: for likely stands like you want to say, let me on, 1527 01:21:06,439 --> 01:21:08,560 Speaker 1: what are you doing? Then Pop? He got through a 1528 01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:12,360 Speaker 1: whole acceleration off of one step and incredible through a hole. 1529 01:21:12,680 --> 01:21:15,080 Speaker 1: And as a defender, you're kind of waiting to see 1530 01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:16,559 Speaker 1: what he's gonna do, and next thing you know, he's 1531 01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:19,400 Speaker 1: by you and it's genius. Do you like last year 1532 01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:21,600 Speaker 1: all the turmoil that the Giants were in and we 1533 01:21:21,720 --> 01:21:25,280 Speaker 1: were decimated in one game. We lost the attire, every 1534 01:21:25,320 --> 01:21:28,559 Speaker 1: single wide receiver, their cousin, their friends, they all got injured. 1535 01:21:29,120 --> 01:21:32,479 Speaker 1: Do you like, like, is there a party you're broadcast 1536 01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:35,600 Speaker 1: you're on Fox, but like, do you still bleed that 1537 01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:38,240 Speaker 1: blue and red for the Giants? Like do you are 1538 01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:40,960 Speaker 1: you emotionally involved? Like damn, I want them, like you 1539 01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:43,719 Speaker 1: have to write, you have to come on in fifteen years. 1540 01:21:44,120 --> 01:21:46,320 Speaker 1: That's that's never going away. And I don't care, like 1541 01:21:46,439 --> 01:21:48,680 Speaker 1: I'll pick if they make us pick games and the 1542 01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:51,920 Speaker 1: giants involved all we picked the Giants. I'm like, y'all 1543 01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:54,160 Speaker 1: know you set me up, but I gotta take the 1544 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:58,439 Speaker 1: Giants and trust me. People you Homer expect, I'm like, 1545 01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:00,880 Speaker 1: what do you expect? If I'm not If I'm not 1546 01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:03,320 Speaker 1: rooting for them, then I'm not sitting in his chair 1547 01:22:03,439 --> 01:22:05,680 Speaker 1: or doing anything else? Did I do so? Always? And 1548 01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:09,040 Speaker 1: I watched the games. People at Fox are always on 1549 01:22:09,240 --> 01:22:12,800 Speaker 1: because I'm screaming, I'm holling. I'm say I'm involved.

Uh no, of course you got 1616 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:43,639 Speaker 1: j um you know man, J Cole, he's good. J Cole. 1617 01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:46,400 Speaker 1: What was what was the song he got six six 1618 01:25:46,600 --> 01:25:49,840 Speaker 1: nine kid? That little yeah, that little kids was like 1619 01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:52,439 Speaker 1: coming at him. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah whatever, you know 1620 01:25:52,479 --> 01:25:56,080 Speaker 1: what that kid is. But the record that the what 1621 01:25:56,280 --> 01:25:59,519 Speaker 1: he put out towards that kid, kind of saying, you 1622 01:25:59,600 --> 01:26:03,400 Speaker 1: know what, I respect this young game right, respect you cats, 1623 01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:06,160 Speaker 1: but this is how the game is played. When I 1624 01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 1: listened to that, I said, it's one of the most 1625 01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:10,759 Speaker 1: brilliant things I've heard in a long time. I've always 1626 01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:13,519 Speaker 1: been a big J Cole fan, so just thoughtful. He's 1627 01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:16,360 Speaker 1: from the essence of all the guys you just mentioned beforehand. Yeah, 1628 01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:20,599 Speaker 1: exactly exactly. He plays the game right. You're talking about 1629 01:26:20,600 --> 01:26:22,880 Speaker 1: a football player like he plays the game right. Yeah. 1630 01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:26,320 Speaker 1: And then you gotta go, like Kendrick Lamar, very conscious 1631 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:29,120 Speaker 1: and and and like what he said, it's like to 1632 01:26:29,200 --> 01:26:31,360 Speaker 1: the heart. He didn't he didn't come out with an 1633 01:26:31,360 --> 01:26:34,360 Speaker 1: album that you would think commercially would probably be successful. 1634 01:26:34,479 --> 01:26:36,000 Speaker 1: He came out with an album that was what he 1635 01:26:36,160 --> 01:26:38,560 Speaker 1: was feeling. And then there are certain guys who have 1636 01:26:38,720 --> 01:26:41,000 Speaker 1: added so much to like hip hop because they made 1637 01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:44,639 Speaker 1: hip hop work for the world. So when you look 1638 01:26:44,680 --> 01:26:48,880 Speaker 1: at a Snoop and you go, damn Snoop, stop going. 1639 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:51,160 Speaker 1: But Snoop had music that make the world feel good. 1640 01:26:52,040 --> 01:26:56,960 Speaker 1: Then you had Dre You know, um, I said, Biggie 1641 01:26:57,040 --> 01:26:59,160 Speaker 1: did that? You know, it just made the world feel 1642 01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:01,640 Speaker 1: not to think about about hip hop. I don't know 1643 01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:05,240 Speaker 1: anybody of a certain age who isn't a fan of it, 1644 01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:07,840 Speaker 1: but I can tell you that a lot of them 1645 01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:10,559 Speaker 1: aren't a fan of the genre of the music as 1646 01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:13,840 Speaker 1: their parents were. Right, But hip hop kind of seems 1647 01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:18,120 Speaker 1: like it transcends all races, colors. It does not matter 1648 01:27:18,240 --> 01:27:20,360 Speaker 1: when it was first. Who would have thought. I mean, 1649 01:27:20,400 --> 01:27:22,040 Speaker 1: it's like what Biggy said, you never thought that hip 1650 01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:24,240 Speaker 1: hop would take take it this far. He was talking 1651 01:27:24,240 --> 01:27:26,160 Speaker 1: about just a little bit. But like the thing about 1652 01:27:26,200 --> 01:27:30,639 Speaker 1: like jay Z talking about crossover. I saw j once 1653 01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:34,000 Speaker 1: and I was like, in your wildest dreams, like they 1654 01:27:34,040 --> 01:27:35,920 Speaker 1: were there were forget about a template for a Michael 1655 01:27:35,960 --> 01:27:38,800 Speaker 1: Strail like the jay Z is like he's in a 1656 01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:42,920 Speaker 1: different strash fear like crossover like homeboys, Like you know, 1657 01:27:43,040 --> 01:27:45,080 Speaker 1: he might own this building. He might own like I mean, 1658 01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:48,120 Speaker 1: brilliant jay Z.

I would out bought some art. I know 1661 01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:54,360 Speaker 1: what you mean.

I'm gonna settle down like he made 1667 01:28:08,120 --> 01:28:12,200 Speaker 1: like he's had a real but he married Beyonce. That's true. 1668 01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:15,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's not like I got it. It wasn't 1669 01:28:15,080 --> 01:28:18,599 Speaker 1: a choice. But yeah, but you know what, I respect 1670 01:28:18,680 --> 01:28:22,519 Speaker 1: the fact that guys evolved. And I remember years ago 1671 01:28:22,680 --> 01:28:24,639 Speaker 1: man with the Nets. I was at a Nets game 1672 01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:27,000 Speaker 1: when Jay own part of the net. The Nets were 1673 01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:29,000 Speaker 1: playing out in Jersey at that time in the medal 1674 01:28:29,120 --> 01:28:32,320 Speaker 1: lands and halftime, they're like a j wants you to 1675 01:28:32,400 --> 01:28:34,120 Speaker 1: come here and be or in the in the back suite, 1676 01:28:34,200 --> 01:28:36,880 Speaker 1: wants you to come, you know, to the suite.

But I think that he has a 1687 01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:06,040 Speaker 1: template that if you're in hip hop, or if you're 1688 01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:10,519 Speaker 1: in sports, if you're in business, your entertainment, whatever you are, 1689 01:29:10,880 --> 01:29:13,160 Speaker 1: he's kind of he's touching his hand in everyone, and 1690 01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:16,000 Speaker 1: he shows you that first of all, you can't be afraid. 1691 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:19,040 Speaker 1: You gotta take chances. You gotta believe in yourself.
