00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:20,280

52
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 4: A maniat Okay, so I think I'm very I'm not

56
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 2: Where's where does that come from?

57
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 1: I don't know.

58
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 4: I think it's just a passion I have for the game.

59
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 4: You know. I just love being on that field. It's

60
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 4: like my promised land.

61
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: When I went back and looked at the notes about

62
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: Lageria's need coming out of Louisiana Tech, I had you

63
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: listed as a safety definitely based on what the different

64
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: services were saying. It was my idea, it was coming

65
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: from other people. Did you know you were gonna have

66
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: a chance to play corner when you got to the

67
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs or did you too think you were

68
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:06,519
Speaker 1: gonna be a safe?

69
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 4: I thought I was going to a safety, and you know,

70
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 4: but I knew I had the chance to play corner

71
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 4: as well for the position who was already there. So

72
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 4: I knew, like, Okay, I'm not gonna beat them guys.

73
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: So you're not gonna beat Tyron math.

74
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 4: No, I'm not all right now coming here as a kie.

75
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 4: You know he's a big guy.

76
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and he's another Louisiana guy. You had a

77
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: chance to play with him. He's another guy who switched

78
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 1: flips when he goes on the field.

79
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 4: Definitely.

80
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,119
Speaker 1: How did Tyron Matthew influence la jerrys oh Man?

81
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 4: He Ever since I stepped the field on that in

82
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 4: that facility, I say, Tyrant told me I got you.

83
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 4: You know your hands you in my hands, and I'm

84
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 4: gonna show you the way. And he showed me the way.

85
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 4: Ever since I've been in with him as a teammate.

86
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 3: Wow, in terms of skill sets, what do you think

87
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 3: sets you apart from other guys on the field?

88
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 2: Beyond that passion, I.

89
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 4: Say, put hands on you know, regular guys. They don't

90
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 4: put hands on guys no more. And it's like an

91
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,119
Speaker 4: old school type play. And uh that's what I do,

92
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 4: you know, And uh, it's just pre hands on guys.

93
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: They don't like that.

94
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 4: Roy he was not like you, No corners, sprint hands

95
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 4: on them, slow the timing down.

96
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 3: Well. When Ran Carthon, the Titans general manager, was talking

97
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 3: about you, he said that one of the things that

98
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 3: stands out to everybody is your aggressiveness. It's just how

99
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 3: much you seem to really like contact right right, And

100
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 3: do you think.

101
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 2: That's an accurate way of describing it.

102
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I definitely love contact. I'm not going back down

103
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 4: for he can be four hundred pounds, I'm still gonna

104
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 4: go up. I got filmed me knocking down some three

105
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 4: hundred pounds man, Yeah, I got film.

106
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 2: And if it's on film that happened, you know what happened.

107
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: So let me ask you too about your high school experience.

108
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: In mindon Louisiana, there were people who thought when you

109
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: went to college, you're gonna be a wide receiver. Definitely,

110
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: You're almost the inverse of DeAndre Hopkins, because dere was

111
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: a great corner coming out of high school, goes to Clemson,

112
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: becomes a wide receiver. Do you take the wide receiver

113
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: skills with you and what you do as a defensive back,

114
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: especially the fact that you're one of the few corners

115
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 1: in the league who's always turning and looking.

116
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 4: For the ball, right, that's I can say. No, coming

117
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,919
Speaker 4: out of high school has been aide receiver. It slowed

118
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 4: the game down for me at corner because I know

119
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 4: what you're looking for. You line up certain splits, tell

120
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 4: me what you're gonna run. So that really just helped

121
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 4: me out tremendously because I know what you're felna run.

122
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 4: If you weigh out here, I know you're gonna come

123
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 4: inside someonea be patient, sit there, save they mental?

124
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 1: Where have you improved the most in your four years

125
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: in the league after coming out of Louisiana.

126
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 4: Tack Uh, I say, mentally, you know, my mental is

127
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 4: very where I needed to be. I still have a

128
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 4: lot more going to do, you know, still learning, I'm

129
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 4: still growing.

130
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 3: Is that what makes you appear so instinctual? It feels

131
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,359
Speaker 3: like you always know where the ball is on the

132
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 3: field at all times. It doesn't even look like you're

133
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,160
Speaker 3: working on it. You just seem to find the ball.

134
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 3: Is that mental part of the game.

135
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 2: Is that?

136
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 4: Definitely that's what slowed the game down for me, you know,

137
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 4: mentally as in studying film, no watching them guys throughout

138
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 4: the week, so I know what's gonna coming. I know

139
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 4: what's coming. They're not gonna change the game plan that

140
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 4: they had, you know, tryably changing the little wrinkles here

141
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 4: and there, but you know I know what's coming in Yes, mentally,

142
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 4: slow down a lot.

143
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 1: You watch Lugerious need Highlights. If I watched your whole

144
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: highlights package, which I did this morning, you have as

145
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: many highlights as a blitzer as you do as a

146
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 1: guy intercepting passes. What what gives you the ability to

147
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: be such an effective blitzer from the corner position?

148
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 4: Say my speed? You know how fast?

149
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 3: Yeah?

150
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:01,799
Speaker 4: I hit that man, I hit that corner.

151
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 1: You know.

152
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 4: The line is they're not gonna kiss me off that

153
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 4: corner and that's all. I love it. You know, it's fast.

154
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: He was dotting them up. That would seem like that's

155
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: something that maybe came from Tyron Matthew too, who's another

156
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: great because a lot of it is timing right exactly.

157
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 4: Yes, sir, So.

158
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: How did how did you learn that part of it?

159
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,720

Speaker 4: Yeah, that's my dad. Yeah.

184
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 3: Well, but in that moment, you're going to make a tackle.

185
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 3: Are you aware of the ball? Are you trying to

186
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 3: hit the ball? Trying to make the tackle?

187
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 4: I'm trying to I was going for the tackle at

188
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 4: first because I knew he had a leverage step of

189
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 4: a couple of steps on me, so I had a

190
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 4: good angle on him. And as I'm running, I'll just

191
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 4: just ketch on my mind, catch up with him, catch

192
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 4: up with him and tackle. So as I see him

193
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 4: finish stretch out, that's when, just an instinct, I punched

194
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 4: the ball. We work on it every day though. Every

195
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,199
Speaker 4: day practice we work on that. DB's were punching the

196
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 4: ball out every prajuice and you know, it just showed

197
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 4: up in the game.

198
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: It was muscle memory, definitely, But you make big plays.

199
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,439
Speaker 1: You're one of the best big play defenders in the NFL.

200
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 1: I work on those imprises too, and so you're prepared

201
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: for those moments definitely, but you just also make those

202
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 1: things happen too. I mean, some guys got it and

203
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 1: some guys don't, right, I agree, And that's your blessing.

204
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:16,559
Speaker 4: Yes it is.

205
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: And so you know he was drafted late fourth round

206
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: and I looked up how much money you made your

207
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,079
Speaker 1: first four years, and you're you're getting a signing bonus.

208
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: It's going to be deposited into your account. It's going

209
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: to be almost double what you made playing your first

210
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 1: four years. So to sign your name, you're being paid

211
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 1: almost double four years of great play. What does that

212
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 1: mean to you in terms of the accomplishment as a

213
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: player and as a person?

214
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 4: Man's I first want to say thank God for it,

00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 2: Here we go.

317
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: What about the Lugerious Snead number thirty eight autograph Football.

318
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 3: How about the fact that LJS is a really hardcore nickname.

319
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 3: I really like it all about initial And I know

320
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 3: you like a good.

321
00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: I like an acronym. You love the kids love an acronym.

322
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 3: I don't know if the kids do, but you do.

323
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 3: But I love LJS as a nickname.

324
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 1: Well, I mean he is some player too. Yeah, And

325
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: you think about Cheeto, a woose, Roger McCrary and LJS,

326
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you've got three guys. Because listen,

327
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: mccrary's a good player, and mccrarry can play on the outside,

328
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: but what he's really made to do is play on

329
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: the inside. And so a woose will hit you, McCrary

330
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: will hit you, Snead will hit you, and so you

331
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: kind of get the best of all worlds right there

332
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: with a Manti hooker and whomever is going to play safety.

333
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 1: And I mean, listen, that's a starting position. You're in

334
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: five defensive backs two thirds to three quarters of the

335
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: snaps now anyway.

336
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I mean it gives you a lot of options,

337
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 3: and it gives you a lot of power.

338
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 2: It's very aggressive back there, which is exciting.

339
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: For the time test winner and all of it may

340
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: be Hooker, yeah, yeah, because he may be able to

341
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 1: make more plays while offenses are having to deal with

342
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: these other guys. He may be able to slip in

343
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: there and use that athleticism to make big things happen.

344
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 3: I'm ready for training camp so we can get these

345
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 3: guys on the field.

346
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: But they're back next week. I know, phrase one, which

347
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: is just the running around thing they do. Because the

348
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: Titans have a new coach, they do get to have

349
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: a voluntary mini camp April twenty two through twenty four,

350
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: so we will get to see them do a few

351
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: things at the start of phase two and then you

352
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: really start to get into the OTAs in May. The

353
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 1: mini camp is June four through six. Yep, and you

354
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: know we're gonna we're rolling really until the end of

355
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 1: the off season program, which comes roughly June the thirteenth.

356
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be a fun too much.

357
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 4: Yep.

358
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 3: We're gonna we're getting back to things that feel like football,

359
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 3: which which is really exciting.

360
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: We haven't had a chance to talk since owner's meetings.

361
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,640
Speaker 1: You haven't, and a lot happened at owners meetings.

362
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot happened, and a big victory for Mike

363
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 3: Keith came from owner's meetings.

364
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 2: Can we talk about this a little bit, sure?

365
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,640
Speaker 3: Okay, So a lot of things happened at owner's meetings.

366
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 3: There's a lot of conversations, and one of the biggest

367
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 3: thing that happened is the Competition Committee gets together and

368
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 3: they vote on new rules for the twenty twenty four season,

369
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 3: and they made a change that Mike Keith has been

370
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 3: campaigning for, and that is changes to the kickoff. Rle

371
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 3: Mike Keith, please explain what decision was made and why

372
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 3: you think this is such a great thing for the

373
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 3: sport of football.

374
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,640
Speaker 1: Mike Keith, twenty twenty four. Oh my god, I got.

375
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 2: It done as soon as I saw.

376
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: I didn't, but I just the kickoff. When they moved

377
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 1: the kickoff to the thirty five yard line, it became

378
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 1: like part of skills competition because you got these specialized

379
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 1: athletes who are fantastic and what they do is they

380
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 1: just kick the ball out of the end zone every

381
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: single time. And it was in what was a great

382
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. It was an incredible downer to watch two

383
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 1: really good kickers just whack it out of the end zone.

384
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: Every single time. You have ten guys on one side,

385
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 1: you know, go running down sorta and do nothing. You

386
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,439
Speaker 1: have ten guys on the other side drop back and

387
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: do nothing, and then you have return guy stick his

388
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: arms out and let the ball go. It's not a

389
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 1: football play. And what they've done is they have put

390
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 1: in a football play where the kicker will be at

391
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: the thirty five, the offensive and defensive players will line

392
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: up ten yards apart. They can't move until the player

393
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: catches the kickoff, and if he kicks it into the

394
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 1: end zone for a touchback, it now comes out to

395
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 1: the thirty, which does make it more of a strategic

396
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: play based on the fact that your odds of starting

397
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: at the twenty five and your odds of starting at

398
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 1: the thirty are significantly different in terms of your chances

399
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 1: of scoring. The five yards makes a difference in terms

400
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 1: of the analytics of it. And otherwise you're going to

401
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,679
Speaker 1: kick it inside the twenty and you're going to have

402
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: a real return possibility. And from a safety standpoint, you

403
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 1: don't have guys running full speed forty yards and having

404
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 1: those collisions, and so I get the safety part of it.

405
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: My thing was, either change it to something where the

406
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 1: return is back in the game with some safety allowances,

407
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,640
Speaker 1: or get rid of the kickoff altogether. We just come

408
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: out of commercial and the other team starts at the

409
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: twenty five. And I think they found a really good

410
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: option because you have a football play again. And this

411
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: is really part of what the game has been for

412
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,120
Speaker 1: all one hundred and fifty five years it's been in existence.

413
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: It has constantly evolved. Some people are calling this a

414
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: gimmick play, but I mean when they went to two

415
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 1: platoon football, they called it gimmick at the Oh, now

416
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 1: we've got a bunch of specialists. And when the passing

417
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 1: rules became more liberalized, oh, you've got this. The game

418
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 1: has always evolved. This gets a return back in the

419
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: game in the safest way possible. Some people saying, what

420
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: about the on side kick, because now you have to

421
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:46,120
Speaker 1: say we're gonna on sidekick, so the surprise on sidekick

422
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:50,120
Speaker 1: is out of the game, And but those weren't working anyway.

423
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 2: Well, and how often does that actually happen?

424
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: Well, not often, and it is the most dangerous play

425
00:20:56,080 --> 00:21:01,360
Speaker 1: in the game. Yeah, and so it's still available laden

426
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: games for a two score game to still be something

427
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 1: that you want to keep people interested in because you

428
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: got at the four minute mark, you've got a two

429
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 1: score game. You don't want people to turn it off.

430
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 1: You want it to be well, we've got into a

431
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 1: one score game. Now we've got a chance to get

432
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 1: the ball back. And I do think they'll eventually put

433
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 1: in the fourth and fifteen play once they see how

434
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: this kickoff works, because I think it's gonna work great.

435
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be fun. I think somebody's gonna

436
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 1: bust a kickoff in week one. I think somebody's gonna

437
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 1: make a great play covering a kickoff. You're gonna you're

438
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 1: gonna get a big hit on a kickoff that forces

439
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 1: a fumble and the other team's gonna recover. That's football.

440
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 1: And I believe in the safety thing. I mean all

441
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: jokes and being right about this aside, I believe in

442
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 1: the safety part of it. I get that the kickoff

443
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: was the most dangerous play in the game, but they

444
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: went too far, in my opinion, with how they set

445
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: up the rules to go with safety over making it

446
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: a non play anymore. Now. I think they have come

447
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: up with the safety because the players being ten yards

448
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: apart on the on the two lines and you have

449
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 1: the element back in the game of the return.

450
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 3: So for the people who would say we love the kickoff,

451
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,919
Speaker 3: we love the kind of the nostalgia of it.

452
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 2: I mean, it is a football moment. It's tradition, that

453
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 2: is the thing. It still exists, it's still there.

454
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: So was not having electricity I mean, well, I mean

455
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,439
Speaker 1: there are lots of things that were in the past.

456
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,719
Speaker 1: I mean there's a fine line between tradition and just

457
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: being way out of step. Yeah, and that's not tradition. Yeah,

458
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 1: somebody returning a kickoff is tradition, and now they have

459
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 1: set it up in a way that the real part

460
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: of the tradition is back. I want to see a

461
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:10,360
Speaker 1: guy return a kickoff. I like that. I don't want

462
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: to see six foot five inch kickers who that's all

463
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: they do, and that's all they've done since they were

464
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: ten years old, and they have the ability to kick

465
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: at eighty yards. I mean, why, you know, what is that?

466
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: So you're wasting everybody's time with something that is no

467
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: longer a football play. It was just a demonstration, that's

468
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 1: what it had become. So yeah, I'm happy about that.

469
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 3: And now the NFL has come around, they have adjusted

470
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:40,479
Speaker 3: it well.

471
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: I put out a video on Twitter that went crazy well,

472
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,199
Speaker 1: and I mean I just I compared it to the

473
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 1: jump ball in basketball and the change in basketball. And

474
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: if back in my day, it used to be in

475
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: every hell ball situation you had a jump ball and

476
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: that wasn't too bad if it was two or three

477
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: times a game. But watch a basketball game where it

478
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 1: happens twelve times. Oh gosh, you would rather be what

479
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: I mean, so boring. Watch a six to one guy,

480
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 1: I have to jump with a seven to two guy.

481
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: I mean so dull. The arrow for the hell ball

482
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,919
Speaker 1: situation improved the game. You have a jump ball to

483
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: start the game, and then after that you have the arrow,

484
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 1: and it cuts out the possibility of six to ten

485
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: hell ball situations in a game. This is the same

486
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: premise in my opinion. And you know that's what I

487
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 1: was comparing it to. Yeah. Did I celebrate, Yes? I did.

488
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: Did I celebrate on the Twitter machine? I did.

489
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 2: He took the victory lap.

490
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 1: I deserve it. I took the victory lap and it celebrated.

491
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 1: I also like the third challenge. If you win a challenge,

492
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 1: you get a third challenge. I think it's good rule.

493
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it gives people the opportunity to continue

494
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 3: to have those moments and flag things if there's a problems,

495
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 3: I mean, if.

496
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:06,720
Speaker 2: You get it right.

497
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, for fifty six minutes of the game, having the

498
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 1: sky judge, so to speak, the official in the booth

499
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 1: be able to make decisions about grounding, I think is

500
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: a good thing. Yeah. I don't know what I think

501
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: about the hip drop tackle thing.

502
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 3: I think I think that is one in my opinion

503
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 3: that we're going to have to see how it plays

504
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 3: out in the season. I mean, we're going to have

505
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:33,120
Speaker 3: to see what that actually looks like when we start

506
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 3: to get into live play, because there's so many things

507
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 3: about it that are conceptual.

508
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 2: It feels like to me like we.

509
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 3: Talk a lot about different things and about different just

510
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 3: ways that they're going to be watching that and officiating

511
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,360
Speaker 3: that I'm going to have to see it in life play.

512
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:54,479
Speaker 1: I have seen all the demonstration plays of it, and

513
00:25:55,840 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: I'm still not sure with how they teach tackling today

514
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 1: down to really the middle school level, because in Grasscutter,

515
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 1: you're not sort of strong enough to do the things

516
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 1: that you're gonna do. But I mean you're in seventh

517
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: or eighth grade, you can learn how to properly tackle.

518
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: And this is what they're teaching now. They're teaching. We

519
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: were taught to use our head through the arm. We

520
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: were taught the safe thing is keep your head up

521
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 1: and see what you hit. Now they're teaching the head

522
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 1: to the side. The rugby tackle is part of it.

523
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 1: And so my question is, with how they teach tackling

524
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: in those moments, how are you gonna be able as

525
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: a defender to avoid doing that?

526
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's what we're gonna have to se see.

527
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 1: I mean, Lajerius Sneed said in his press conference today,

528
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna get him down. And he was really

529
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 1: not happy about it, and he said, and the Players

530
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: Is Association is not thrilled about it because it's I

531
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 1: don't know how with tackling taught as it is in

532
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 1: the moment that the defender is going to be able

533
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 1: to avoid doing that.

534
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 3: And I think there's going to have to be some

535
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 3: grace maybe I think there's going to have. It seems

536
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 3: like to your point, what gives everybody hesitation is it

537
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 3: seems like it's very rigid and it's very much how

538
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 3: is somebody not do this? You know exactly what you

539
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 3: were just saying. But that's why I think there's going

540
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,159
Speaker 3: to have to be It feels like it's gonna have

541
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,120
Speaker 3: to be on a case by case basis, which also

542
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 3: really doesn't make sense.

543
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 2: It feels, I don't know, it doesn't work. It feels

544
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 2: like I can't figure it.

545
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 1: I mean, because there's a there's virtually unless a guy

546
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 1: goes out of bounds, there's a tackle on every play.

547
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 1: And so now the officials, who already have the difficulty

548
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 1: in making certain calls, are gonna have to in real

549
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: time decide, oh, yeah, that was an illegal tackle. Yeah,

550
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 1: I mean, the horse collar thing is much easier. But

551
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: let me just real quickly, and they still miss that.

552
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 1: They when they see a guy get jerked a certain way,

553
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,199
Speaker 1: they assume this is what has happened, and then in

554
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: certain instances they don't call it when it is that

555
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 1: And that's real obvious. This is much more subtle, in

556
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 1: my opinion, and it's like, uh, and so what's gonna

557
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: happen in the preseason is they're gonna do what they

558
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: always do and what they should do. Frankly, they're gonna

559
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: call anything like that they see because they use preseason

560
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 1: as the teaching for the officials and the players. But

561
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. In theory, I think it's

562
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: great safety, sure, and like I said, I'm one hundred

563
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 1: percent for safety. And yet in the real moment, when

564
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 1: you've got a talented running back or receiver or tight

565
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 1: end in space and he's running and you're just doing

566
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 1: whatever you can to get him down.

567
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 3: Well, and is this gonna slow the game down? Yes,

568
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 3: And which is the whole thing that the league has

569
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 3: been for the last five years trying to speed the

570
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 3: game up. Now we're gonna slow it back down because

571
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 3: on every play you're gonna be throwing a flag, picking

572
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 3: it up, throwing.

573
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 2: A flag thing.

574
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I hope it's not. I think your point

575
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 1: is right. I hope it's not to that level. But

576
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 1: I think you are gonna have situations where it's called

577
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: and then somebody another official comes in and says that

578
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 1: wasn't that wasn't it. Yeah, And then I think you're

579
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 1: gonna have other situations where the coaches are gonna want

580
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 1: to say you missed it. I think they're gonna be

581
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 1: They're gonna be discussions around those places. So I think

582
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: talk a lot more. I think your point, Amy is

583
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 1: spot on. I think you have made the point of

584
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 1: this OTP, and that is it's going to potentially slow

585
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: the game.

586
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:12,239
Speaker 3: Down to well, and we've said this multiple times on

587
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 3: the OTP, but at some point the league has to

588
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 3: pick a direction. You're either all in on safety or

589
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 3: you're all in on speeding the game up, and sometimes

590
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 3: the two things.

591
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 2: While they can.

592
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 3: Obviously you want to have a safe game and you

593
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 3: want to be entertaining and as efficient as possible, at

594
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 3: some point you have to pick a side that you're

595
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 3: on because there are some things that can't go. But

596
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 3: you can't go over the top on safety and also

597
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 3: have a game that's under three hours or they seem

598
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 3: to be conflicting masters Well.

599
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: It is because I mean the other part of it too, Amy,

600
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: is it's a tackle game. It is we.

601
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 2: Play we played tackle violent game.

602
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: We play tackle football, yeah we do. And hardcore yeah,

603
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: I mean the best tackle football in the world. And

604
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: so how do you.

605
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 2: Miss the two together. It's a tricky dance.

606
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: And it's another point where the defense is taking another

607
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 1: potential hit. I mean, the game has swung very much

608
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: to the offense. We know that the game has swung

609
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 1: very much to the pass game. We know that, and

610
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: now this is another thing, and you know it occurs

611
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: a lot in space after guess what pass receptions. It

612
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: probably won't happen as much on running plays as it

613
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 1: will on passing plays, but certainly won't. Yeah, and so

614
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: how do you how do you play defense?

615
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 2: We're going to see, we're going to see, we're going

616
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 2: to see.

617
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: Do you have anything else that you would like to

618
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 1: discuss on this edition to the OTP?

619
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 3: That was kind of the main thing, except I feel

620
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 3: like we need to shout out your social media presence

621
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 3: a little bit.

622
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 1: Oh oh, thanks, well, because.

623
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 3: I mean, really, you have gone above and beyond in

624
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 3: whole things.

625
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 2: You've done a great job. You've been very consistent.

626
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 3: The stuff that you put on the social media's is compelling.

627

Speaker 1: what at ten voice with one end is.

650
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 2: I don't know. We probably don't need to.

Speaker 3: two have been surprised.

660
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: Well, my whole thing with social media is I wanted

661
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 1: to do it in a way that hopefully would add

662
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: to Titan's fans enjoyment of following the team. Okay, and

663
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 1: I mean what led me to do it is. I

664
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: met someone in a parking lot who was very kind,

665
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 1: and he said, you get to do a lot of

666
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 1: really cool stuff, and I said, I really do. It's

667
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: a great job. I love it. I love it every day.

668
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: I love it just as much as when I started it.

669
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: Never thought I would get to do these sorts of

670
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: things just as a sports fan, let alone as a broadcaster.

671
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 1: And he said, you know, it would be great if

672
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 1: you shared that on social media. And men did I

673
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 1: feel like I was two inches tall. I mean, he

674
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 1: made me feel bad. Why well, but I mean it

675
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: felt like it felt like something that I should do

676
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 1: and that I was not doing. And my whole thing

677
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: about not being on social media for years came down

678
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 1: to the fact that I didn't want to be one

679
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: of those people telling you what to do or what

680
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 1: to I mean, you know, it's like I don't need that. Yeah,

681
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 1: I don't need to be that. There's enough of that

682
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 1: out there. Super you know, if you've got all the

683
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 1: answers to the universe, good for you. I don't. The

684
00:34:55,640 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 1: older I get, the more I know nothing. I mean,

685
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 1: the older you get, you really understand you're completely clueless.

686
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,839
Speaker 1: When you're young, you think you know everything I did,

687
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 1: which was not great, and I didn't want to be that.

688
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 1: I didn't want to be that version of myself on

689
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 1: social media, and so, you know, I just try to

690
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 1: show people some stuff and tell us tell some stories

691
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: that we don't have a chance to tell other places.

692
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 1: And I've really enjoyed it that people have been overwhelmingly kind,

693
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:27,839
Speaker 1: and not that I didn't expect them to, but I

694
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 1: just I didn't know what to expect.

695
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 3: I think people get to see fun Mikey, they get

696
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,240
Speaker 3: to see cool, casual Mikey.

697
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:34,800
Speaker 2: It's a whole different side.

698
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: I don't think that's true.

699
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 2: I think that's totally true.

700
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:39,240
Speaker 1: I mean, what are you talking about?

701
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 3: I think, like, Okay, so, for example, the backwards hat thing,

702
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 3: you were wearing a backwards hat.

703
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,839
Speaker 1: And kickoff video. Yeah, but see, I'm allowed to do

704
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,800
Speaker 1: the backwards hat thing because I qualify under the male

705
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: backwards hat rule. Okay, none of that is real, It's

706
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 1: one hundred percent real.

707
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?

708
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 1: So the only men I can't speak for women, but

709
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,280
Speaker 1: the only men who are supposed to wear backwards hats

710
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: are men who played catcher in the sport of baseball.

711
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 1: Men under thirty guys who either played or coached O

712
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: line or D line, former professional athletes in any sport,

713
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 1: anyone who was any sort of real skateboarder, or anyone

714
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 1: famous who has worn a hat backwards as part of

715
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 1: their persona as they have come up otherwise as a guy.

716
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,399
Speaker 1: If you don't fit into any of those categories, I'm

717
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 1: not going to judge you. Okay, I'm not going to

718
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 1: judge you, but teenagers will, and it's not going to

719
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 1: be good for you. I'm just telling you.

720
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 2: Are these rules crafted by teenagers?

721
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:41,319
Speaker 1: No?

722
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 2: Or are these posted?

723
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 1: So they're posted? But I was a catcher for the

724
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 1: majority of my baseball career, so I have the right

725
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: to wear a backwards hat anytime I want to, in perpetuity.

726
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,359
Speaker 1: In perpetuity be eighty five years old. O Pop Pop

728
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 2: I had no idea that these rules existed.

729
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you don't fall into any of those categories,

730
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 1: you don't need to be wearing a backwards hat.

731
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 2: Does everybody know about these rules? They're literally every person

732
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 2: in this room is shaking their head. No, so I'm

733
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 2: not alone.

734
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 1: Well, but first of all, he doesn't make two females

735
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: and two guys under thirty, So they wouldn't know.

736
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 2: Oh, so they wouldn't know. There's no need for them.

737
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: Because I'm not talking about females. I don't know what

738
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 1: y'all do with backwards hats. That's y'all's business. I'm not

Speaker 1: familiar with that same. Yeah, so I don't know. Yes,

740

Speaker 1: I if I have a hat on the majority of

741
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: the time, it's on backwards. Interesting, that's not fun. I

742
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 1: mean that's just who I am. I'm a backwards tat guy.

Speaker 1: anybody who is a catcher has the right to wear

746
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 1: backwards hat the rest of their life.

747
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,080
