29
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,840

37
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: fight the feeling of going to bed every single time.

38
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: I got a little of that left in me, but

39
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: not too much. But the point is them boys, them girls,

40
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: they wouldn't go to bed. I was like, dog, what

Speaker 1: She over there spying on me. I got the kids

44
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,560

Speaker 1: I'm saying, How you gonna go to the police officer,

46
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 1: I'm charging them with keeping my kids up too late,

47
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: and I'm like, yo, no, no, let me defend myself. They

48
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: were tired. These kids stupid, but they were tired. They

49
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: stayed up and then, as always, at least parents understand this,

50
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: when your kids are tired, you tied. And then they

51
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: made me go to sleep. When I was supposed to

52
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: be out to dinner with a couple of my boys

53
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: from Columbia, flew in town with my boy Rory, who

54
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: is in town, and we were supposed to go to Delilah.

55
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: Thought it was going to Soho House that changed to Delilah.

56
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: They all in the streets, like all they go places

60
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,839
Speaker 1: damn damn damn. And I'm just the opposite right now.

61
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: Just because I try to stay safe and also stay married,

62
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: but I tapped out with the boy and I tapped

63
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: out with the girls. I did. My boy put me down.

64
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: He was it was like nine something. I put him down.

00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: Then I'm gonna get dressed. Yeah, okay, it was like

00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,600

00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: with us every mon. Tapped out, night night, best sleep,

76
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: best cuddles ever. Had to wake up this morning. We

77
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: had a game today. That's where the voice is. Yep.

78
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: Eight o'clock. We played the Tennessee Titans. Baltimore Ravens versus

79
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans. Yeah, it was a fun game for us.

80
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: My kids out there. They only had one practice, so

81
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: a little nervous, and then in warm ups I was

82
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 1: just looking I mean, you got to look at eleven

83
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,720
Speaker 1: seven year olds. You don't know what to think. You

84
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: don't know if they locked in, you don't know if

85
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: they loudly gaging, you don't know if they care nothing.

86
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: And it's like that every single week. But I looked

87
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 1: at him, I said, all right, it's time to go

88
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 1: out there. Once you cross that white line, no excuses,

89
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: play your best. And the first play from scrimmage, I

90
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 1: should have known they were gonna play their best. Boy.

91
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: They were at it. They fly into the ball, they

92
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: were disciplined executing the plays. We only got like four plays,

93
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: but they were running up to perfection and they won.

94
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: So I was happy for all's good. About to go

95
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: see my little nephew. He's in one of those was

96
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: AAU tournaments. Were you ever go to those? Oh god,

97
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: they're the worst. All you hear is whistles everywhere. Are

98
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 1: you here? Whistles beep beep, beep, beep, beep beep. And

99
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: I'm like, how come we're now stopping? Oh, because that's

100
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: the other nineteen courts where they're blowing the whistles, right,

101
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: poor kids. You go through one of these huge, huge

102
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: arenas and it's just nothing but basketball course, a volleyball course,

103
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: depending on the sport. So I'm heading out there today.

104
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: I got a surprise. My boy tak him to Dave

105
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: and Busters right before it. Then we're gonna go see

106
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: his little cousin play. See if he got that game.

107
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 1: All right, y'all Speaking of the game. Speaking of playing,

108
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: let's talk about Bryce Harper. Yes, baseball. I know, y'all, like,

109
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: what is this? More to it? Is this Marcel's wallly?

110
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 1: Is this? Never shut up? Yes, we're talking baseball right here.

111
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: I like his creative comeback. Let me hip you to

112
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: this story. Bryce Harper approached to Phillies. They had a

113
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: conversation with an interesting plan to return from his Tommy

114
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 1: John surgery that he had in November. In an attempt

115
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: to skip his minor league rehab assignment as well, Bryce says,

116
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: I learned how to play first base. Now this does

117
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 1: not affect his timetable to return to the lineup. He

118
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 1: will still return as the DH because he'll be cleared

119
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: to hitting games before he's cleared the throw because of

120
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 1: the Tommy John. Right, but if Harper takes to a

121
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 1: new position to Phillies, think it could allow him to

122
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: reach the field sooner than if he played right field.

123
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: Obviously because in right field, boy you catch that ball,

124
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: you know what you gotta do, rocket launcher. Right. So

125
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: manager Rob Thompson says, I really don't know if he

126
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: will go on assignment double whammy here. I mean, if

127
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: he's swinging the bat well and he feels good, I say,

128
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: why waste it? I like that right there. We all

129
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: got a pitch count, we all got a rep count,

130
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: we all got an activity count in terms of high

131
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 1: level except Lebron James right now. I don't know what

132
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: the hell he but boy, he got something. But you know,

133
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: most of us mere mortals. You got to make sure

134
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: those reps count, that you apply him to the right situations.

135
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: We just saw that with Andrew Wiggins in so many ways.

136
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: Right Andrew Wiggins went through his personal issues. Andrew Wiggins,

137
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: whatever took him away from the Golden State Warriors, he

138
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: brought us but back when it mattered most right, and

139
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: they made sure he went to a couple conditioning practices,

140
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: make sure he got his legs under him to a degree.

141
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: But we need you when it counts. I think Rob

142
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: Thompson is thinking the same way. It's like, yo, we

143
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: need him when it counts, but we also need him

144
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: to play as fast as possible. Y'all know who we're

145
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: talking about right now, Bryce Harper. Dude, that's the money

146
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 1: man right there. So we got to make sure he's

147
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: out there. They're struggling right now. They got a five

148
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: and nine record, eleventh in the National League and home

149
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: runs not looking pretty. So the man could swing the back.

150
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: Let's put him in a position when we're on in

151
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: the outfield. He could play first base instead of being

152
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: in the right fielder instead of being in the outfield.

153
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: Makes a lot of same sense to me. Now, remember Harper,

154
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: he got hurt last year before this, and he didn't

155
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: spend much time, if any, just a little in the minors,

156
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: and he had that thumb injury in and he came back.

157
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 1: They got this technology now all locked in. Cats know

158
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: through simulation how you get your at bats now major

159
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: league caliber at bats through simulation, and they're gonna use

160
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: that technology to their side and to their benefit as

161
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: they get closer to his return day. So he's been

162
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: taking bat in practice already and he as simulated the

163
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 1: game scheduled early for next week, all of which means

164
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: he's getting closer and closer. Still needs his medical clearance

165
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 1: to execute his preferred head first slides. Good luck with that,

166
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: but in some ways that's pretty much the last remaining

167
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: battle and hurdle. All right, So he's coming back. Made

168
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: me think about like when you're out there playing, because

169
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: a lot of times this is not privy information to

170
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 1: the fans, to you guys on the outside. You know,

171
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: you see a guy get hurt, you hear four to

172
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: six weeks and you just wait four to six weeks.

173
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: But so much is going on, and we're gonna talk

174
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: about that even in the next story with Zion. But

175
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 1: in this situation, you see a guy who's like he's limited.

176
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: He's not perfect, he's not ready, but he's limited, but

177
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: he can't contribute. And I remember we used to talk

178
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: about are you hurt? Are you injured? Right, because if

179
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,319
Speaker 1: you're injured, can go you hurt? Let's figure out something.

180
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: Let's figure out what we can do mentally and physically

181
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: to get you out there. And even in a limited capacity,

182
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 1: you still are capable of making plays. You're still capable

183
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: of doing some things. It's crazy because I've been there before.

184
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: So one thing they always tell us is if one

185
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: of your senses is compromised, then all of a sudden,

186
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 1: the other senses are heightened. Right, So they say, people

187
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: that lose their psyching here better you know, you get it. Well,

188
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 1: they translate that to sports as well, so they're saying that, well,

189
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 1: if you're compromised physically in one area, then there are

190
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,599
Speaker 1: other areas that we can increase, whether it's focused or

191
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,959
Speaker 1: through compensation, other body parts that will be stronger that

192
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: where you can use and exercise in the field of play.

193
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: So there are in times when frankly, I wasn't one

194
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 1: hundred percent ankle, messed up, hit flex or whatever it

195
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 1: may be. And because of that concentration, because of that focus,

196
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: and because I got to use everything else to overcompensate

197
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 1: for that injured part, actually go out there and play.

198
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 1: Dare I say better? I'm locked in. I know I

199
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: don't have it all, so I gotta use all that

200
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,199
Speaker 1: I have. Sometimes you go out there and when you're

201
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: afforded perfect health one hundred percent, you just take it

202
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: for granted. You don't even activate everything. You're just locked in.

203
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 1: But at the same time, some of your things are

204
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: not turned on fully if you get where I'm coming from.

205
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: So in real life, people who have compromised, census enhance

206
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: their other ones, and the same thing in sports. Oh,

207
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: I can't roll the ball the same Bryce Harper, but

208
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,440
Speaker 1: I can lock in and I can still throw it

209
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: from first base. But more importantly, I could swing this

210
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 1: bat with that concentration, with that focus and me swinging

211
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: the back, I can still contribute. So I thought that

212
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,079
Speaker 1: was interesting because I've been through that in so many ways,

213
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: you know. And then it happens sometimes just father time,

214
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 1: where you see the compromise that comes from a guy

215
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,599
Speaker 1: who's losing the step and it used to be this

216
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 1: shutdown corner who now turns into this coverage safety, you

217
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: know what I mean. We've seen that in so many ways.

218
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: I saw it again when I had to move from

219
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: running back to defensive end. Yep, I had to go

220
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 1: from running back to defensive end, and I had to

221
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: translate what I had into something else, but still be

222
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 1: able to contribute, still be something on that field, still

223
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: make the needle move and running back. Obviously you got

224
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: the ball. Everybody wants you. You're the pretty girl on

225
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: the field. Everybody want to holler. I'most like yo man

226
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: playing d N you hollering that you got your game. Right,

227
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: you got your lines down, you're trying to get to

228
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 1: and it's obviously more physical playing d N. People think

229
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,839
Speaker 1: it's more physical playing running back. Nah, because at the

230
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: end of every play at running back, I dictate those terms.

231
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: I get tackled right, I made moves, I got speed,

232
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: I can get away. Oh they got me fine, But

233
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: it was all me When you playing d N. Not

234
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: even get to the play, you gotta go through hell

235
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:29,679
Speaker 1: first offensive alignment aka five security guards from the club, right,

236
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: you got to go through that before you even get

237
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: to the guy who's going to try his damnness to

238
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: make sure you don't get to him. So being in

239
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: the trenches is exactly how it sounds. Being in the trenches.

240
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: It was a different animal than being on edge, perimeter,

241
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: backfield space, all those type of things. So I understand

242
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: what they're doing over there in Philadelphia, and I see

243
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: what Rob Thompson's talking about. Let's just get what we

244
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 1: can out of Bryce Harper. He's too good to waste. Now,

245
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: speaking of trying to get what they can out of

246
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: somebody's Williamson, who brother? They starting to leak around you, bro,

247
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: They starting to leak around you because everybody's getting frustrated.

248
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: It's so funny coaching kids. I learn it and they

249
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: learn it soon as well. Like we all judge when

250
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,079
Speaker 1: we're running win sprints, we're judging who's fast, who's slow.

251
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: When we're doing jumping jacks, we're judging who can do them,

252
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 1: who's coordinated, who's not focused. Everything in sports you're judging,

253
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,199
Speaker 1: and that includes your teammates judging you. Right, And when CJ.

254
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,439
Speaker 1: McCullum comes out talking about Zion Williamson in general saying

255
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: we need our best players on the court a little

256
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: that is a little bit of a leak, like, hey, dog,

257
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: you know, if you can, we will accept you on

258
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 1: this court, Zion. And then when David Griffin has to

259
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,559
Speaker 1: come out and talk about it, Oh, it's a big deal.

260
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: Let's talk about it. Let's frame it properly. Zion, y'all

261
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,079
Speaker 1: know who he is, number one overall pick twenty nineteen,

262
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: played just twenty nine games this year, right, and didn't

263
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: play at all last year. Y'all starting to get this.

264
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 1: So David Griffin he had to come out VP of

265
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 1: basketball operations, and in so many ways he kind of

266
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: puts some of the blame or at least responsibility on

267
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: Zion and his health struggles. Quote, I wish I could

268
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: immediately pinpoint the answer. That's when somebody's been thinking about

269
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 1: it before know the answer and trying to throw a softball.

270
00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: I wish I could immediately pinpoint the answer. You know,

271
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: damn well, you get paid to know the answer. So

272
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: let's just play this one off. He said, I think

273
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: a big part is on him told you he knew

274
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: the answer. I think there's a lot he can do better,

275
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 1: and he would, I think tell you that. I think

276
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 1: we need to do a better job examining the whole

277
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: situation top to bottom a little bit better. In quote,

278
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: I think you call me, I thinks in there he's

279
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: trying to protect that dude's ego. He knows he needs

280
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: Zion boy, that's a superstar. However, also got to make

281
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 1: my superstar understand you're still another player. You got to

282
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 1: be accountable, You got to be responsible, right, So he says,

283
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: once again, I think putting them in the best position

284
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: to succeed is important, and I think his participation is

285
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: a big part of that. He's starting to notice that

286
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: red dot starting to point at that Zion a little

287
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: more like, hey, bruh, where they do that at where

288
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: we got to rehab schedule, and we got things that

289
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: we want to implement, and you're not fully involved in them.

290
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: So we saw earlier this week Zion putting on a

291
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: show during pregame warmups, threw down ten dunks. They said,

292
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: I ain't count them, but they said ten ducks include

293
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: one or two wind mills, and he showed no sign

294
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: of the strained hamstring. Everybody's like, what, dude, ain't played

295
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: since January? Second, y out here, wind mill duncan and

296
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: he ain't playing. Let me tell y'all something. And even

297
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: David Griffin talking about this, that ain't basketball. I used

298
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: to laugh when people used to see me warming up

299
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,040
Speaker 1: and they'd be like, oh, why you ain't playing, And

300
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: I was like, that ain't football. Warming up is not football.

301
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: So even David Griffin said he was playing one on none,

302
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: he went up and win miled dunk pre game, whippie,

303
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: that's not the skill set that makes you capable of

304
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: playing five on five basketball preach. So for people to

305
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: now say he chose not to play basketball, that's not

306
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 1: factual nonsense. I agree with that right there. So we

307
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: also know he got some weight issues, which doesn't make

308
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: this look any better in terms of Zion Williamson's commitment,

309
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: because when you got weight issues, immediately we are like,

310
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: damn you big, which immediately makes people say, damn you fat,

311
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: which meediately makes people say damn you lazy, which immediately

312
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 1: makes people say, damn you ain't trying. It's hard. Some

313
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: of that's true. Some of us just big boneded it,

314
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 1: and some of us got diroid issues. Some of us

315
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 1: just got different metabolisms, right, Like, I'm gonna be a

316
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 1: big dude regardless. Unlets y'all know, I never take steroids.

317
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna walk around here twoin forty in fighting shape

318
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 1: if I ever get in fighting shape, and I'm not

319
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: because I ain't trying to fight that hard two forty,

320
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 1: but I could. If I weigh under two forty, y'all

321
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 1: gonna be like you got that gastric surgery. If I

322
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 1: do under two forty, I'll be like, dog you you

323
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: pulled a big boy and had the surgery or something. Right, Nope,

324
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,880
Speaker 1: I am big, bony, my ass, My legs are two

325
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 1: twenty by themselves. Then this big ass head, it's two forty, bro.

326
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: I see these cats losing one hundred pounds, and immediately

327
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: I think what steroids were you on? Because of hell,

328
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,879
Speaker 1: did you have two hundred pounds of fake weight? I

329
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: can't get fake weight. I got like thirty pounds of

330
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 1: fake weight. Rest of this real. I'm two forty natural

331
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: row two seventy on fat Boy. So it's funny when

332
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,640
Speaker 1: I see that and everyone looks at Zion like that, man,

333
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,080
Speaker 1: you ain't trying as hard. You big. You got two

334
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,639
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty one million dollar contracts Supermax. The ball

335
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: is in your court. What you're gonna do with it? Well,

336
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: if i'm Zion, you know what I'm gonna do with it.

337
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna actually put in that work. And I think

338
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,479
Speaker 1: he is putting in work, but obviously when CJ is leaking,

339
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: when David Griffin is leaking, there's more work to be

340
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: put in. And that's the one thing you learned about

341
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 1: pro sports. There is no seiling like Infinity. I mean,

342
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,880
Speaker 1: what do the kids say now, google Plex? It's crazy

343
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 1: Like Tom Brady proves that right. Tom Brady came in

344
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:23,360
Speaker 1: compromised whatever physical abilities he had, Sucker worked and then

345
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 1: not just compromised physically, but coming with a completely different

346
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 1: game playing in TB twelve and his mentals. But more

347
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: than that, just changing what legacy looks like. Like we

348
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,959
Speaker 1: thought Charles Haley was it. Oh he got five rings,

349
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 1: and you know he bounced around a couple of teams.

350
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: But Charles Haley is it, that's the ultimate winner. But

351
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 1: at the ultimate position, we saw somebody go out there

352
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 1: and win, and win even more than Charles Haley. Come on, y'all,

353
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 1: Tom Brady got seven rings. I couldn't even believe it.

354
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: I was over there googling, like, what this sucker hill?

355
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 1: Seven rings? Goodeness, and he got the when no one

356
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 1: else thought you could ever get what more than four

357
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: at quarterback? That was like the old threshold that sucker.

358
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: Punch through that whole get out of here, punch a

359
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 1: hole in that ceiling, get out of here. And that's

360
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: what it looks like now, so Zion, Basically, what I'm

361
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 1: saying is whatever you think working hard looks like whatever

362
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: you think you need to do to get ready. It

363
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,479
Speaker 1: sounds like those around you say they need more, sounds

364
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 1: like you need to take their advice. Maybe not forget

365
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 1: the maybe you do do more. Man two years, you

366
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,640
Speaker 1: didn't play last year, this year twenty nine games. Come on, broh,

367
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 1: we want to see it. We need to see it,

368
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 1: all right. Last one here, let's talk about Paul Pierce again.

369
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,879
Speaker 1: Who says something that I heard so many guys say,

370
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: and I'm glad somebody with stature said it so he

371
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: can get his props. He said, you know who's tougher

372
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: the guard than Lebron, tougher the guard than Kobe Carmelo Anthony.

373
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 1: And I ain't gonna lie. I have heard that so

374
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,880
Speaker 1: many times. I don't know why it's not national headline

375
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 1: news all the time. He said, whoa Carmelo was a

376
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 1: whole different animal. So he was asked to talk about

377
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: an underrated baller in the NBA who we know people

378
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 1: either hate or love to hate Carmelo Anthony, and he said, man,

379
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: quote to me, Mello dog. Listen, I'd rather Reguard, Lebron, Kobe,

380
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 1: t Mac all them before Mello Dog. You know you

381
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 1: mean it when he said dog. When I asked when

382
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: he firmly believes if Melo is the toughest player to guard,

383
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: he said, oh no, he used to hurt my chest.

384
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 1: He's a bulldog. He's gonna be physical. He's gonna put

385
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,159
Speaker 1: you up he's gonna post you up. He's gonna hit

386
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: you with the shoulder in the chest. You're gonna be

387
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: hurting after the game, like, nah, dog Mello, he's gonna

388
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,959
Speaker 1: make you feel this. Thirty other cats, they're gonna finesse

389
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: their thirty. Now you're gonna be hurting with Melo. That's dope.

390
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 1: He gave that love to him too. Man. He said

391
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 1: he could be aggressive with his offense to a different

392
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: degree than others. That's why I'm saying he's aggressive. Dog Man,

393
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 1: He's gonna throw them elbows. And it's crazy because they're

394
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: always the guy out there a little under the radar

395
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, that people are not giving him his shine,

396
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: giving them his proper credit. But to you and to

397
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 1: many others, oh, he the one. He is silly. He

398
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: is different. Right, So in basketball, it sounds like a

399
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: Carmelo Anthony's like, we know he buckets, but the narrative,

400
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 1: the perception is, now, let's give it to other guys.

401
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: Of course, we're not robbing Lebron and Kobe in this conversation,

402
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 1: but we're giving Carmelo his props boosting them up. You

403
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: know what's crazy about it? And football, guess who that was.

404
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 1: And it wasn't because of narrative or anything. It was

405
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 1: just really because just too quiet, just didn't say enough

406
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: marketplace and him Brad Hopkins. Y'all heard of Brad Hopkins,

407
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 1: hopefully not, because that's to my point, sucker on him.

408
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,639
Speaker 1: All right. Everybody knows Walter Jones, everyone knows Orlando, everyone

409
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 1: knows Jonathan Ogden, Right, we know those big names. Tony

410
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 1: Boselli is that era? All right? Brad Hopkins right there?

411
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 1: And Brad Hopkins was quiet with it, like just grown man,

412
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 1: tractor strength, quiet, quick, could do it all. Just didn't

413
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,919
Speaker 1: get the notoriety right, And I was like, man, this

414
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 1: dude don't get enough love. Then I talked to my peers.

415
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: I talked to other dns that shoot Brad Hopkins about

416
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 1: that life you got. You got sixty minutes of life

417
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: sentences dealing with Brad Hopkins. He was a beast. So

418
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: Eddie George Days, remember that Ah starting to add up

419
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 1: a little bit, Tennessee Titans, Steve McNair, Rest in peace,

420
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 1: Ah starting to add up, right, somebody was protecting that house.

421
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 1: It was Brad Hopkins. This dude was silly with it, y'all.

422
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 1: He used to bring the pain, never got the prompts,

423
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 1: never got the respect. I wonder who y'all think. I know,

424
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna check these comments and see what y'all think,

425
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,119
Speaker 1: because there's always those guys you're like about him. That

426
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: dude's silly, he buckets. Why ain't not talking about him?

427
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 1: All he do is go out there and get his

428
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 1: Nobody talks about him. So Brad Hawkins for me, and

429
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,640
Speaker 1: I remember going against him countless times. And it's weird

430
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: when you got to go against a beast because you're

431
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 1: ready for it. You're pumped, like you can't be down

432
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,399
Speaker 1: for it. You pumped, but at the same time you're like, damn,

433
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a long one. It's really almost a

434
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 1: greater battle mentally than it is physically, because physically, you

435
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: guys are gonna level out like he's a beast for

436
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: a reason. So you ain't gonna go in there and

437
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,360
Speaker 1: just pick him up and throw him away. You ain't

438
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: gonna just go out there and hit him with no

439
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 1: simple rip moves and simple swim counter moves. Nah, he ain't.

440
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 1: He ain't going for that. It's gonna be a chess match.

441
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a mental battle. It's gonna be deceptive.

442
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: You gotta throw him off, right, You got to mislead him,

443
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: if not physical to physical, Oh, we gonna counter balance

444
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 1: each other. And boy, those nights when you think it through,

445
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,719
Speaker 1: all the different plays, you thinking about all the different ways,

446
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 1: and you need to set him up. Also need to

447
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 1: run some games, some stunts. You need your teammates involved.

448
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a collective effort. You need those dbs

449
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: to give you that extra half second. Right, Boy, those

450
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: that anxiety, those thoughts, I miss them because it's hard

451
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 1: to find that in the real world, like that complex

452
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: of a situation, with that level of intensity, that fast,

453
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 1: y'all call what I said. It's different in the real world.

454
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 1: Things develop, things take their time, overnight sation, sensation takes forever.

455
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: Right in the real world. And football football man, you

456
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 1: go out there and say, hu, oh my, he's good.

457
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: So it's a different development speed in the real world

458
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: than it is in sports. But we still got to

459
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: put in that work consistently in sports as well. But

460
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 1: when you're at that moment the truth with someone else

461
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 1: and it's time to go to war, that war is

462
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: not fought with physical tools as much as it is

463
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 1: mental tal tools. And it's crazy. Bro. Whoa, y'all got

464
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: me thinking right here. I'm over here shaken because boy,

465
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 1: those some nervous nights. Hard to sleep. Oh man, it

466
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: was a beautiful thing, all right, y'all y'all know how

467
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: we finish every show? We finished with it. Come on

468
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 1: while to get it out wly ism. Damn. I hear

469
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: them toads. I hear them frogs. They hear all right,

470
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: let's say it. Life can only be understood backwards, but

471
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 1: it must be lived forwards. Yep. Life can only be

472
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,640
Speaker 1: understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards. Ay man, Man,

473
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,199
Speaker 1: I wish I knew all the answers. And once I

474
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,120
Speaker 1: go through something, I feel like I do. Don't you

475
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 1: a right? I got it next time, I got it

476
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: next time. Then you got to go through that again

477
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 1: to say, all right, I got it next time, I

478
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 1: got it the next time. But life can only be

479
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: understood when you're like really looking back going forward. You

480
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 1: gotta live it, right, you gotta live it and then

481
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: go through it, just like today, first day, first game

482
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,120
Speaker 1: for my little kids. Man, you should see them little kids,

483
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 1: some of them as well as they played still like,

484
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 1: what do I do? Which way I go? How do

485
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 1: I do this right? And I feel the same way

486
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: in New Adventures as well. I know you do do

487
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,360
Speaker 1: as well. And it's okay because every time you take

488
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: that step without judgment, especially, you get quicker to the understanding,

489
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 1: get quicker to the understanding of what this takes, and

490
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,399
Speaker 1: you get quicker to what you need to do to

491
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: make it happen. Isn't that a beautiful process? Because if

492
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: it was another way, I mean, we just wouldn't gain.

493
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 1: We just would get we wouldn't gain. And there's a difference,

494
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 1: like when you memorize stuff. Remember back in those days,

495
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: we had to memorize for school. On Monday, you get

496
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: all this stuff, all this homework, all these lessons, and

497
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 1: Friday regurgitate them and give them back. Yeah, I would

498
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: get the information, but if I didn't really study it,

499
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:52,880
Speaker 1: if I didn't really go through the process all week,

500
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: not just cram it on Thursday, I didn't really gain it.

501
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: Because you can literally learn something and just get it

502
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 1: for the mo and then lose it and don't gain anything.

503
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: And that's what I loved about it, man, I loved

504
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: that I really took the process seriously, because I was

505
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 1: able to retain more than not. Now I still don't

506
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: know my state capitals. I'm still lost on that. But

507
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 1: when you go through the process, you can understand and

508
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: you can gain that. Just get so. Life can only

509
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 1: be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards. That's

510
