1
00:00:05,126 --> 00:00:08,086
Speaker 1: And Huddle is a production of the NFL in partnership

2
00:00:08,126 --> 00:00:20,926
Speaker 1: with iHeartRadio. Well, well, well we made it into another week.

3
00:00:21,206 --> 00:00:24,566
Speaker 1: We're getting that much closer to the regular season. Welcome

4
00:00:24,606 --> 00:00:27,926
Speaker 1: into a huddle, everybody. I'm m jac Safruiz with my

5
00:00:28,006 --> 00:00:29,766
Speaker 1: premord final Will Selva.

6
00:00:30,006 --> 00:00:30,366
Speaker 2: Yeah.

7
00:00:30,366 --> 00:00:34,926
Speaker 1: Will. I mean people think that it's just oh, we're

8
00:00:34,966 --> 00:00:38,046
Speaker 1: in training camp. Oh we're increasing, but so much has

9
00:00:38,126 --> 00:00:40,926
Speaker 1: happened already, just in the last couple of weeks since

10
00:00:40,926 --> 00:00:43,446
Speaker 1: we got back to football action. My head is sort

11
00:00:43,446 --> 00:00:45,646
Speaker 1: of spinning a little bit. But I think what we

12
00:00:45,686 --> 00:00:48,686
Speaker 1: have this mechanism to sort of air on our grievances,

13
00:00:48,846 --> 00:00:51,166
Speaker 1: talk through it. It's almost like our therapy session.

14
00:00:51,526 --> 00:00:54,126
Speaker 3: It is a little bit of our football therapy session, right,

15
00:00:54,246 --> 00:00:56,366
Speaker 3: And I don't know if we have any grievances. I

16
00:00:56,406 --> 00:00:59,726
Speaker 3: guess we'll we'll find out we haven't really delved in.

17
00:00:59,806 --> 00:01:02,526
Speaker 3: That's why we do the pod. So let's get into

18
00:01:02,526 --> 00:01:06,286
Speaker 3: Titu lattice. Right, let's go Okay, So, as you mentioned,

19
00:01:06,326 --> 00:01:09,766
Speaker 3: lots of stuff happening around the NFL, right, and one

20
00:01:09,766 --> 00:01:12,606
Speaker 3: of the things that was established out of Indianapolis is

21
00:01:12,606 --> 00:01:16,806
Speaker 3: that Anthony and Richardson will indeed be QB one.

22
00:01:16,886 --> 00:01:18,126
Speaker 2: Does this surprise you at all?

23
00:01:18,526 --> 00:01:20,206
Speaker 1: Not at all, not even a little bit.

24
00:01:20,246 --> 00:01:20,846
Speaker 2: This is no brainer.

25
00:01:21,406 --> 00:01:26,726
Speaker 1: I think this was the reason that they drafted this man. Right,

26
00:01:26,766 --> 00:01:30,846
Speaker 1: I'm really working on not calling them kids.

27
00:01:30,286 --> 00:01:32,806
Speaker 2: Right, Oh, I feel yourself.

28
00:01:33,006 --> 00:01:36,086
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, definitely a romance bort. This is no joke.

29
00:01:36,806 --> 00:01:38,366
Speaker 1: But it's interesting because at the end of the day,

30
00:01:38,366 --> 00:01:41,966
Speaker 1: they're like in their early twenties. Like, I've got almost

31
00:01:42,006 --> 00:01:46,086
Speaker 1: two decades on these guys. But you if you do

32
00:01:46,126 --> 00:01:48,326
Speaker 1: feel that way, like you're just a young pup coming

33
00:01:48,366 --> 00:01:51,406
Speaker 1: into the league shortly after training camp, you're gonna have

34
00:01:51,406 --> 00:01:53,526
Speaker 1: some hair on your chest, You're gonna feel it. And

35
00:01:53,606 --> 00:01:56,006
Speaker 1: I feel like with Anthony Richardson, all of his accolades

36
00:01:56,046 --> 00:02:00,566
Speaker 1: and even all of the hesitation in he's a quote

37
00:02:00,606 --> 00:02:03,646
Speaker 1: unquote project quarterback. He's going to need a little bit

38
00:02:03,686 --> 00:02:06,726
Speaker 1: more time. He's going to need some polish. Yes, I agree,

39
00:02:06,846 --> 00:02:10,406
Speaker 1: but the Colts also need a quarterback to start, and like,

40
00:02:10,486 --> 00:02:12,886
Speaker 1: this is the guy, and you can't ignore how talented

41
00:02:12,926 --> 00:02:15,526
Speaker 1: he was. I think we the reason he had so

42
00:02:15,606 --> 00:02:17,606
Speaker 1: much buzz was for a reason. So I'm not at

43
00:02:17,646 --> 00:02:19,726
Speaker 1: all surprised that they named him the starter. And I'm

44
00:02:19,926 --> 00:02:23,646
Speaker 1: really really curious to see what it looks like. Keeping

45
00:02:23,646 --> 00:02:25,326
Speaker 1: in mind that it's going to take a beat right

46
00:02:25,846 --> 00:02:28,406
Speaker 1: to really see what the new look offense in Indianapolis

47
00:02:28,486 --> 00:02:29,846
Speaker 1: is going to look like. But I'm excited for that.

48
00:02:29,926 --> 00:02:31,326
Speaker 1: I love this for you Colts fans.

49
00:02:31,606 --> 00:02:34,566
Speaker 3: Yeah mucha paciencia, right, that's what you need there. Which,

50
00:02:34,606 --> 00:02:37,766
Speaker 3: by the way, talking about age, like, I didn't know

51
00:02:37,766 --> 00:02:40,166
Speaker 3: what my mom's age was until like two years ago,

52
00:02:40,806 --> 00:02:42,486
Speaker 3: so that was on purpose.

53
00:02:42,806 --> 00:02:48,126
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, but those understand.

54
00:02:49,366 --> 00:02:49,926
Speaker 4: Right, So.

55
00:02:51,886 --> 00:02:54,446
Speaker 2: Either way, I agree with everything that you're saying. I

56
00:02:54,486 --> 00:02:55,366
Speaker 2: think he is raw.

57
00:02:55,446 --> 00:02:57,206
Speaker 3: I think what I wanted to see out of him

58
00:02:57,406 --> 00:03:00,726
Speaker 3: in that first preseason game was how he would recover

59
00:03:00,846 --> 00:03:04,326
Speaker 3: from making mistake. He threw that interception and he was

60
00:03:04,446 --> 00:03:07,326
Speaker 3: able to bounce back, so that was important. Saw some

61
00:03:07,366 --> 00:03:12,446
Speaker 3: good things. His mechanics might need some work, but he

62
00:03:12,486 --> 00:03:14,606
Speaker 3: seems to be a little bit further along than what

63
00:03:14,646 --> 00:03:19,086
Speaker 3: they anticipated. And what the Colts needed was stability at

64
00:03:19,086 --> 00:03:23,246
Speaker 3: the quarterback position. They've had so many different names there

65
00:03:23,326 --> 00:03:30,806
Speaker 3: under center, Carson Wentz, Matt Ryan, Philip Rivers, Allaner. They've

66
00:03:30,806 --> 00:03:34,686
Speaker 3: had so many quarterbacks since Andrew Luck was there, and

67
00:03:34,726 --> 00:03:40,126
Speaker 3: they finally have somebody who they believe is the future,

68
00:03:40,246 --> 00:03:44,526
Speaker 3: and they clearly stated Shane Stecken had said he's going

69
00:03:44,606 --> 00:03:48,966
Speaker 3: to be RQB one for the entire regular season and

70
00:03:49,086 --> 00:03:50,646
Speaker 3: they're just going to have to go through the growing

71
00:03:50,686 --> 00:03:53,126
Speaker 3: pains at this following time, you know. And I think

72
00:03:53,166 --> 00:03:56,366
Speaker 3: we saw some of that tantalizing talent that he has.

73
00:03:56,926 --> 00:03:59,886
Speaker 1: I think listen and again everyone has to understand, like,

74
00:03:59,966 --> 00:04:02,606
Speaker 1: this is what the preseason is for. I rather see

75
00:04:02,646 --> 00:04:04,806
Speaker 1: him throw a pig and get a little shaken up

76
00:04:05,046 --> 00:04:09,606
Speaker 1: now before we hit Week one, right, Like, this is

77
00:04:09,606 --> 00:04:11,646
Speaker 1: what this is for. I don't think you can take

78
00:04:11,726 --> 00:04:14,646
Speaker 1: something from the preseason and be like, well that's it,

79
00:04:14,646 --> 00:04:17,606
Speaker 1: it's a rap. Sometimes you can see signs, sure, but

80
00:04:17,686 --> 00:04:20,806
Speaker 1: that's the opportunity they get now to correct those things

81
00:04:21,006 --> 00:04:24,046
Speaker 1: before these games actually mean something on the schedule. Right,

82
00:04:24,086 --> 00:04:29,726
Speaker 1: So I'm not worried, but also remembering that they are

83
00:04:29,886 --> 00:04:33,446
Speaker 1: rebuilding around a young, brand new quarterback. So yeah, take

84
00:04:33,446 --> 00:04:35,646
Speaker 1: a second, but also take it in give this man

85
00:04:35,686 --> 00:04:37,246
Speaker 1: the support that he needs. I think he's going to

86
00:04:37,326 --> 00:04:41,046
Speaker 1: be great. I'm really this. Also, I feel like preseason

87
00:04:41,126 --> 00:04:43,006
Speaker 1: is the time for hope, not doom.

88
00:04:43,206 --> 00:04:45,206
Speaker 3: Yeah maybe, yeah, I'm okay with that because some people say,

89
00:04:45,326 --> 00:04:48,846
Speaker 3: oh boy, you guys are cheerleaders for all the teams.

90
00:04:48,846 --> 00:04:51,606
Speaker 3: It's like, no, you want to see all these teams

91
00:04:51,686 --> 00:04:55,966
Speaker 3: do well because we speak, you know, Frank commente right,

92
00:04:56,006 --> 00:05:00,086
Speaker 3: but that's part of what we do. We give an opinion,

93
00:05:00,206 --> 00:05:02,806
Speaker 3: we have one, and we'll see what happens.

94
00:05:02,886 --> 00:05:03,086
Speaker 4: Right.

95
00:05:03,166 --> 00:05:05,806
Speaker 3: But I think this is a step in the right direction.

96
00:05:06,166 --> 00:05:08,406
Speaker 3: You know that the owner, Jim Mercey, wanted to see

97
00:05:08,406 --> 00:05:11,046
Speaker 3: this happen. Hey, let's stick with this kid. Let's see

98
00:05:11,046 --> 00:05:14,646
Speaker 3: what he can do and maybe add optimism and hope

99
00:05:14,646 --> 00:05:18,846
Speaker 3: there where where we're seeing this optimism and hope in

100
00:05:18,926 --> 00:05:24,846
Speaker 3: places like New England because HS ended up getting Ezekiel

101
00:05:24,846 --> 00:05:29,566
Speaker 3: Elliott for a one year, six million dollar deal to

102
00:05:29,686 --> 00:05:33,006
Speaker 3: help out mac Jones and that offense, which has some

103
00:05:33,086 --> 00:05:33,886
Speaker 3: pieces there.

104
00:05:34,086 --> 00:05:34,286
Speaker 4: MJ.

105
00:05:34,486 --> 00:05:36,686
Speaker 2: What was your take when you first heard this.

106
00:05:37,686 --> 00:05:39,726
Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting and like, look, we haven't

107
00:05:39,766 --> 00:05:43,806
Speaker 1: seen Zeke be that true RB one in a little

108
00:05:43,806 --> 00:05:46,886
Speaker 1: bit now and courts the end of last season, especially

109
00:05:46,966 --> 00:05:49,246
Speaker 1: in the post, it was a little bit concerning. But

110
00:05:50,086 --> 00:05:53,766
Speaker 1: I still think the talent that Zeke brings is one

111
00:05:53,766 --> 00:05:56,726
Speaker 1: of the one of the most powerful and interesting things

112
00:05:56,766 --> 00:05:59,206
Speaker 1: in the league, and I think infuse into a brand

113
00:05:59,286 --> 00:06:02,086
Speaker 1: new regime a brand new team like this could be

114
00:06:02,166 --> 00:06:04,806
Speaker 1: really interesting. I know that Ramandre Stevens in last year

115
00:06:05,326 --> 00:06:07,926
Speaker 1: came in and really assumed that role as the lead

116
00:06:08,006 --> 00:06:10,086
Speaker 1: running back, and I think like his past catching ability

117
00:06:10,206 --> 00:06:12,566
Speaker 1: was such sort of like his little superpower last year.

118
00:06:12,726 --> 00:06:15,286
Speaker 1: But I think having a veteran like Zeke behind him,

119
00:06:15,366 --> 00:06:18,286
Speaker 1: maybe they do like a running back by committee situation, right,

120
00:06:18,326 --> 00:06:20,006
Speaker 1: even if it's just one and two, sprinkle in the

121
00:06:20,046 --> 00:06:22,206
Speaker 1: other guys in the depth chart to sort of relieve

122
00:06:22,206 --> 00:06:25,326
Speaker 1: some pressure. I think it's it's it's going to be

123
00:06:25,366 --> 00:06:28,286
Speaker 1: an interesting sort of mix there. And I hope that

124
00:06:28,366 --> 00:06:31,246
Speaker 1: this signals a resurgence for Zeke, that we really start

125
00:06:31,286 --> 00:06:33,366
Speaker 1: to see him in that full form that we saw

126
00:06:33,446 --> 00:06:36,246
Speaker 1: him when he returned a few years ago. So I

127
00:06:36,246 --> 00:06:38,446
Speaker 1: don't know, I think it's going to be. It's weird.

128
00:06:38,806 --> 00:06:40,526
Speaker 1: It's always weird when you see a guy in a

129
00:06:40,566 --> 00:06:43,406
Speaker 1: new Jersey, and there's a lot of those this season,

130
00:06:43,526 --> 00:06:46,086
Speaker 1: a lot of those, but Zeke with the Patriots for

131
00:06:46,126 --> 00:06:48,286
Speaker 1: some reason, I'm like, yeah, I guess that tricks.

132
00:06:48,566 --> 00:06:51,246
Speaker 3: Yeah, And this was the first contract that he signed

133
00:06:51,326 --> 00:06:55,326
Speaker 3: since his ninety million dollar contract, right, and it reminds

134
00:06:55,366 --> 00:07:00,126
Speaker 3: you of the investment the Cowboys made in him and

135
00:07:01,286 --> 00:07:04,206
Speaker 3: reminds us about the running back market, which it seems

136
00:07:04,206 --> 00:07:07,446
Speaker 3: like the domin knows are falling. And with Zeke, I

137
00:07:07,446 --> 00:07:10,046
Speaker 3: think they're going to get a short yardage runner. I

138
00:07:10,086 --> 00:07:12,846
Speaker 3: think they're going to get a guy who they get

139
00:07:14,046 --> 00:07:16,646
Speaker 3: absolutely who they can hand the ball off to in

140
00:07:16,726 --> 00:07:22,206
Speaker 3: the goal line situations, which I know Ramandre Stevenson fantasy

141
00:07:22,246 --> 00:07:24,886
Speaker 3: fans are freaking out about. I mean, I think Ramonde

142
00:07:25,086 --> 00:07:28,046
Speaker 3: was in the top ten. You may fall off that

143
00:07:28,126 --> 00:07:31,086
Speaker 3: list a little bit lower, perhaps because Zeke will eat

144
00:07:31,126 --> 00:07:34,886
Speaker 3: into those touches. But also keep in mind that Zeke

145
00:07:35,006 --> 00:07:39,686
Speaker 3: is an excellent, excellent blocker and have an extra blocker

146
00:07:39,726 --> 00:07:43,246
Speaker 3: there for Mac Jones in those third down situations, I

147
00:07:43,246 --> 00:07:48,686
Speaker 3: think that will be invaluable. And again they've got something

148
00:07:48,806 --> 00:07:54,126
Speaker 3: going there, Juju Hunter, Henry, you know, DeVante Parker. It

149
00:07:54,166 --> 00:07:58,646
Speaker 3: seems like they're trying to surround Mac Jones with the

150
00:07:58,726 --> 00:08:02,246
Speaker 3: necessary pieces to compete with other teams in the division.

151
00:08:02,686 --> 00:08:05,926
Speaker 3: The reality is they have have to try to compete

152
00:08:06,086 --> 00:08:10,446
Speaker 3: and now with Mac Jones, he's got a new offensive

153
00:08:10,446 --> 00:08:14,326
Speaker 3: coordinator in Bill O'Brien and there's going to be pressure

154
00:08:14,366 --> 00:08:17,166
Speaker 3: on him to produce. So I find this to be

155
00:08:17,726 --> 00:08:20,526
Speaker 3: a good move for them, a necessary move, and it

156
00:08:20,566 --> 00:08:24,086
Speaker 3: goes the show. I mean, they're they need to do

157
00:08:24,126 --> 00:08:26,566
Speaker 3: what they can to keep up with everybody else.

158
00:08:27,046 --> 00:08:29,966
Speaker 1: One hundred percent. I agree. I think everything is sort

159
00:08:30,006 --> 00:08:32,086
Speaker 1: of like let's wait and see, especially with the running backs.

160
00:08:33,006 --> 00:08:36,686
Speaker 1: The longer they're in the game, the less production they

161
00:08:36,726 --> 00:08:39,726
Speaker 1: tend to have, for better or for worse. Right, Like

162
00:08:39,766 --> 00:08:43,246
Speaker 1: that position is just I almost feel like a thankless position.

163
00:08:43,326 --> 00:08:46,366
Speaker 1: And you mentioned like his Zeke's attributes of like blocking

164
00:08:46,446 --> 00:08:49,886
Speaker 1: as well, Like this is probably one of the one

165
00:08:49,886 --> 00:08:52,166
Speaker 1: of like the combo punches that they were really looking

166
00:08:52,246 --> 00:08:54,726
Speaker 1: forward to in bringing in a guy like Zeke not

167
00:08:54,806 --> 00:08:57,566
Speaker 1: just helping out the younger backs that he will supplement,

168
00:08:57,806 --> 00:09:00,966
Speaker 1: but also in the overall offensive scheme. So I think

169
00:09:01,006 --> 00:09:01,366
Speaker 1: it's good.

170
00:09:01,806 --> 00:09:04,726
Speaker 3: Yeah, And the Patriots had all of like fifteen minutes

171
00:09:04,886 --> 00:09:09,886
Speaker 3: to enjoy the spotlight because here come the Jets and

172
00:09:10,046 --> 00:09:13,646
Speaker 3: they put the smack down and say, oh, yeah, well,

173
00:09:13,766 --> 00:09:18,006
Speaker 3: now we've got Dalvin Cook as they finally agreed to

174
00:09:18,046 --> 00:09:22,006
Speaker 3: a deal the Jets and Cook, and he's gonna make

175
00:09:22,046 --> 00:09:24,726
Speaker 3: eight point six million dollars. He came on Good Morning

176
00:09:24,726 --> 00:09:27,366
Speaker 3: Football and he said that he wanted to be a

177
00:09:27,406 --> 00:09:32,886
Speaker 3: part of something special and that they were building something special.

178
00:09:32,566 --> 00:09:33,326
Speaker 2: In New York.

179
00:09:33,486 --> 00:09:35,046
Speaker 3: And he said that the odds were high that he

180
00:09:35,086 --> 00:09:38,886
Speaker 3: would sign with the Jets, and that's exactly what he did.

181
00:09:39,486 --> 00:09:43,566
Speaker 3: They are loaded in that running back room because there's

182
00:09:43,566 --> 00:09:47,406
Speaker 3: some other guys there who've seen the who have seen

183
00:09:47,646 --> 00:09:51,126
Speaker 3: the field and have been very successful. Breece Hall, he's

184
00:09:51,126 --> 00:09:53,766
Speaker 3: coming off of his knee injury and it sounds like

185
00:09:53,846 --> 00:09:56,566
Speaker 3: he's going to be ready for a week one. And

186
00:09:56,846 --> 00:10:03,126
Speaker 3: Michael Carter is there, and Bam is there, Zonovan, They've

187
00:10:03,126 --> 00:10:05,846
Speaker 3: got They've got Izzy who's been before wming well this

188
00:10:05,846 --> 00:10:10,326
Speaker 3: this preseason. So they clearly are all in too here

189
00:10:10,446 --> 00:10:13,646
Speaker 3: to help out Aaron Rodgers and just this offense is

190
00:10:13,646 --> 00:10:17,246
Speaker 3: going to be scary good. Usama is tied end Garrett

191
00:10:17,246 --> 00:10:22,286
Speaker 3: Wilson out wide. This this all or nothing for them,

192
00:10:22,486 --> 00:10:23,686
Speaker 3: all or nothing.

193
00:10:24,246 --> 00:10:26,766
Speaker 1: I'm really trying to be I'm trying to take my

194
00:10:26,926 --> 00:10:28,206
Speaker 1: fan out of the equation.

195
00:10:28,286 --> 00:10:29,566
Speaker 2: You gotta you gotta take.

196
00:10:29,406 --> 00:10:32,606
Speaker 1: That out for the purposes of this analysis, right of

197
00:10:32,646 --> 00:10:36,886
Speaker 1: this particular headline and what the Jets are doing, right,

198
00:10:38,086 --> 00:10:43,526
Speaker 1: I have followed and understood what Dalvin Cook brings. He's

199
00:10:43,566 --> 00:10:46,286
Speaker 1: a Miami boy, after all, went to Miami Central High School,

200
00:10:46,326 --> 00:10:48,206
Speaker 1: was a five star recruit out of there when he

201
00:10:48,366 --> 00:10:52,126
Speaker 1: was heading into college. He's very, very good. By the way,

202
00:10:52,166 --> 00:10:54,366
Speaker 1: he's another one of those guys that really is leaning

203
00:10:54,366 --> 00:10:56,446
Speaker 1: into the Spanish member and I was doing the can

204
00:10:56,486 --> 00:11:00,166
Speaker 1: you say your position in Espanol? Yeah, right in to

205
00:11:00,286 --> 00:11:03,126
Speaker 1: learn how to say go, which is a position that

206
00:11:03,206 --> 00:11:06,086
Speaker 1: has a ton of ours that you need, and he

207
00:11:06,166 --> 00:11:08,846
Speaker 1: would not. He was insistent. He's like, no, tell me again,

208
00:11:08,926 --> 00:11:10,646
Speaker 1: I'm gonna practice it. I'm going to get it.

209
00:11:10,686 --> 00:11:11,246
Speaker 4: He was great.

210
00:11:11,686 --> 00:11:13,726
Speaker 1: Now he's got to go up against my team at

211
00:11:13,846 --> 00:11:16,686
Speaker 1: least twice a year, so you know, well, I'm gonna

212
00:11:16,686 --> 00:11:20,006
Speaker 1: save the Spanish lessons for a little bit to friends

213
00:11:20,006 --> 00:11:22,846
Speaker 1: off anymore. But I think this is this is huge.

214
00:11:22,846 --> 00:11:25,326
Speaker 1: I mean, we saw what he did in Minnesota. I mean,

215
00:11:25,326 --> 00:11:29,806
Speaker 1: he's just he's a tremendous, tremendous talent. And with all

216
00:11:29,846 --> 00:11:32,766
Speaker 1: of the news that we've had and how undervalued the

217
00:11:32,846 --> 00:11:35,686
Speaker 1: running backs have been, to be talking back to back

218
00:11:35,686 --> 00:11:38,646
Speaker 1: about to the best in the game right now, I

219
00:11:38,686 --> 00:11:41,846
Speaker 1: think this is this is big, especially within this division.

220
00:11:42,206 --> 00:11:44,886
Speaker 1: And nobody needs a running back until they need a

221
00:11:44,966 --> 00:11:47,086
Speaker 1: running back, until they need to run the damn ball,

222
00:11:47,126 --> 00:11:48,806
Speaker 1: and this is what we're seeing across the league, which

223
00:11:48,806 --> 00:11:50,406
Speaker 1: is why I'm like, can we just pay these guys, which,

224
00:11:50,406 --> 00:11:51,766
Speaker 1: by the way, is a whole other topic that we

225
00:11:51,806 --> 00:11:54,526
Speaker 1: already touched on in a few hours olds ago. But

226
00:11:54,606 --> 00:11:56,726
Speaker 1: there's a reason why now the teams are like, oh yeah,

227
00:11:56,806 --> 00:11:59,126
Speaker 1: let's go in and and lock and Zeke, Let's go

228
00:11:59,206 --> 00:12:01,126
Speaker 1: in and lock in Dalvin and all of these other

229
00:12:01,166 --> 00:12:04,166
Speaker 1: guys because there is a need for them, and they

230
00:12:04,166 --> 00:12:08,006
Speaker 1: are quite literal game changers, especially when things come down

231
00:12:08,046 --> 00:12:08,486
Speaker 1: to the wire.

232
00:12:08,566 --> 00:12:13,766
Speaker 3: So yeah, love love his past catching ability, love the burst,

233
00:12:13,966 --> 00:12:18,326
Speaker 3: love his patience and catching passes out of the backfield.

234
00:12:18,766 --> 00:12:23,286
Speaker 3: I think it's it's a great call for the Jets

235
00:12:23,446 --> 00:12:28,006
Speaker 3: now clear across the country, three thousand miles away literally,

236
00:12:28,086 --> 00:12:31,326
Speaker 3: we know that the forty nine ers are set at

237
00:12:31,366 --> 00:12:34,126
Speaker 3: running back with Christian McCaffery as long as he is

238
00:12:34,206 --> 00:12:37,326
Speaker 3: healthy and right now he has been knock on any

239
00:12:37,366 --> 00:12:38,726
Speaker 3: wood that's around us.

240
00:12:39,126 --> 00:12:39,246
Speaker 1: Uh.

241
00:12:39,486 --> 00:12:41,806
Speaker 2: The concern though, there really.

242
00:12:41,886 --> 00:12:48,926
Speaker 3: Is the quarterback situation backing up brock party because it

243
00:12:48,966 --> 00:12:54,766
Speaker 3: has been between Trey Lance and Sam Darnold. Let's hear

244
00:12:55,366 --> 00:12:58,846
Speaker 3: from Kyle Shanahan, Let's hear from the Shanman and what

245
00:12:59,006 --> 00:13:03,566
Speaker 3: he has to say about Trey Lance's performance in Week

246
00:13:03,646 --> 00:13:04,686
Speaker 3: one of the preseason.

247
00:13:06,206 --> 00:13:07,806
Speaker 4: It got off to a rough star for everybody.

248
00:13:07,846 --> 00:13:09,166
Speaker 5: I mean with three to three and ounce for the

249
00:13:09,166 --> 00:13:12,126
Speaker 5: whole offense the first three times. So I don't put

250
00:13:12,126 --> 00:13:14,206
Speaker 5: that all in trade by any means that the whole

251
00:13:14,246 --> 00:13:16,326
Speaker 5: offense was sloppy to start. I thought he had a

252
00:13:16,366 --> 00:13:20,806
Speaker 5: real good second drive leaning there on the score, made

253
00:13:20,846 --> 00:13:22,206
Speaker 5: a hell of a play on the touchdown. I know

254
00:13:22,206 --> 00:13:23,526
Speaker 5: it was almost a hell of a play for them

255
00:13:23,846 --> 00:13:25,566
Speaker 5: with the pick, but the last guy in a boot

256
00:13:25,606 --> 00:13:27,766
Speaker 5: lake it flashed and he put it on him and

257
00:13:27,806 --> 00:13:29,326
Speaker 5: that guy came in a tip that made a good play,

258
00:13:29,366 --> 00:13:32,566
Speaker 5: but fortunately Dwelly was there. I wish we got that

259
00:13:32,566 --> 00:13:35,206
Speaker 5: shortyardist so we could finish that drive. It's hard to

260
00:13:35,246 --> 00:13:36,086
Speaker 5: not put him in the third.

261
00:13:37,046 --> 00:13:39,166
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all right. Their courtesy of our friends at

262
00:13:39,206 --> 00:13:41,846
Speaker 1: ninety five point seven the game, great radio station up

263
00:13:41,846 --> 00:13:48,726
Speaker 1: in the Bay Area. Look, I was watching that game.

264
00:13:49,766 --> 00:13:52,806
Speaker 1: You know how the Niners fans showed up for that

265
00:13:52,886 --> 00:13:55,686
Speaker 1: team in a preseason match in Vegas. I asked my

266
00:13:55,726 --> 00:14:00,206
Speaker 1: friend Aaron, shout out to Aaron, who's a huge Niners fan.

267
00:14:00,246 --> 00:14:01,446
Speaker 1: I was like, Hey, were you in that crowd of

268
00:14:01,446 --> 00:14:03,286
Speaker 1: red I saw he goes the way we looked. I'm

269
00:14:03,286 --> 00:14:05,886
Speaker 1: glad I wasn't, And I was like, ooh, back to

270
00:14:05,926 --> 00:14:10,166
Speaker 1: the calm down. It's the preseason, relax. But well, I

271
00:14:10,166 --> 00:14:12,126
Speaker 1: don't know about you, but I did not have QB

272
00:14:12,286 --> 00:14:16,286
Speaker 1: battle between Trey Lance and Sam Donald to back up

273
00:14:16,446 --> 00:14:21,326
Speaker 1: Brock Purdy in Santa Clara on my Bengo card what not?

274
00:14:21,406 --> 00:14:24,166
Speaker 2: Many people did not? Many people did.

275
00:14:24,926 --> 00:14:28,686
Speaker 3: This is what I'll say about Trey Lance and Sam Donald.

276
00:14:29,006 --> 00:14:31,926
Speaker 3: I think right now you have to give the obvious

277
00:14:32,086 --> 00:14:35,206
Speaker 3: edge to Sam Donald, just based on the experience, not

278
00:14:35,326 --> 00:14:39,006
Speaker 3: to say he had this tremendous control over the offense,

279
00:14:39,126 --> 00:14:41,966
Speaker 3: but he has it more so than Trey Lance. And

280
00:14:42,446 --> 00:14:45,246
Speaker 3: Trey Lance has been the victim of circumstance. You know,

281
00:14:45,286 --> 00:14:49,006
Speaker 3: he came in not having a lot of game experience

282
00:14:49,926 --> 00:14:53,406
Speaker 3: behind him, and then he's gotten hurt. Here he is,

283
00:14:53,446 --> 00:14:59,646
Speaker 3: he's in his third preseason and it just such an

284
00:14:59,766 --> 00:15:01,846
Speaker 3: up and down day, and it just feels like he's

285
00:15:01,886 --> 00:15:06,846
Speaker 3: still slow at processing things. And while yes, his mechanics

286
00:15:06,926 --> 00:15:11,126
Speaker 3: is throwing is better, it just feels like his mechanics

287
00:15:11,126 --> 00:15:14,286
Speaker 3: still aren't where they need to be. And I think

288
00:15:14,326 --> 00:15:20,646
Speaker 3: that Shanahan designed the offense to suit brock Party and

289
00:15:20,686 --> 00:15:23,606
Speaker 3: I think he said, Okay, I'm gonna use exactly the

290
00:15:23,646 --> 00:15:26,526
Speaker 3: offense that I've used with Brock Purty and use it

291
00:15:26,846 --> 00:15:30,006
Speaker 3: for Trey Lance. Because you noticed a lot of it

292
00:15:30,046 --> 00:15:32,926
Speaker 3: was Trey Lance from the pocket. It wasn't really him,

293
00:15:33,406 --> 00:15:35,966
Speaker 3: you know, running around, which the.

294
00:15:35,886 --> 00:15:38,446
Speaker 1: Reason they wanted to have them, yeah.

295
00:15:38,046 --> 00:15:42,926
Speaker 3: Exactly because of his athletic ability. And I just I

296
00:15:43,046 --> 00:15:46,566
Speaker 3: just feel like those those grains of salt are going

297
00:15:46,606 --> 00:15:52,446
Speaker 3: down on that hour glass on his chances to get

298
00:15:52,486 --> 00:15:55,326
Speaker 3: any meaningful reps with the forty nine ers. I mean,

299
00:15:55,726 --> 00:15:58,286
Speaker 3: I think they're gonna for the next preseason game, they're

300
00:15:58,286 --> 00:16:01,286
Speaker 3: probably going to switch around and have Donald Starr and

301
00:16:01,366 --> 00:16:04,566
Speaker 3: him be with the second half. And in fairness to

302
00:16:04,806 --> 00:16:08,486
Speaker 3: Trey Lance as well, that offensive line did him no favors.

303
00:16:08,766 --> 00:16:12,526
Speaker 3: He was under dress a lot, which that's another point

304
00:16:12,526 --> 00:16:14,406
Speaker 3: of concern for the forty nine ers is the depth

305
00:16:14,526 --> 00:16:18,006
Speaker 3: of the old line. So just giving it a little

306
00:16:18,006 --> 00:16:20,766
Speaker 3: bit more context there. I know people have said, hey,

307
00:16:20,966 --> 00:16:23,246
Speaker 3: they need to trade him, do something with him.

308
00:16:23,406 --> 00:16:25,326
Speaker 2: I don't think there's a market though for him that

309
00:16:25,486 --> 00:16:26,686
Speaker 2: I was going to say, where's it gonna go there.

310
00:16:26,726 --> 00:16:27,566
Speaker 2: Is it exactly?

311
00:16:28,286 --> 00:16:30,526
Speaker 3: I don't know, but you know, these first rounders always

312
00:16:30,526 --> 00:16:33,526
Speaker 3: get a chance sect a herd chance, right.

313
00:16:33,966 --> 00:16:39,926
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, limitless opportunities for them for sure, because of

314
00:16:39,926 --> 00:16:42,886
Speaker 1: where they were drafted. But I think to that end,

315
00:16:43,926 --> 00:16:46,926
Speaker 1: the Niners really want this to work with Trey, not

316
00:16:46,966 --> 00:16:49,126
Speaker 1: only because of what they gave up to jump up

317
00:16:49,166 --> 00:16:52,846
Speaker 1: to draft him, but also because I think that they

318
00:16:53,046 --> 00:16:56,646
Speaker 1: genuinely do believe in his ability. But I think once

319
00:16:56,686 --> 00:17:00,046
Speaker 1: you start piling on injuries, especially unfortunately when it's so

320
00:17:00,166 --> 00:17:03,366
Speaker 1: early on in your career, it does hinder you a bit.

321
00:17:03,566 --> 00:17:05,806
Speaker 1: And I don't know why. Like in my gut, I

322
00:17:05,846 --> 00:17:10,726
Speaker 1: don't think it's his ability necessarily, right. Unfortunately, he hasn't

323
00:17:10,806 --> 00:17:13,966
Speaker 1: had the opportunity to really showcase that and to really

324
00:17:14,006 --> 00:17:18,286
Speaker 1: go full speed multiple reps, live game action because of

325
00:17:18,326 --> 00:17:21,926
Speaker 1: the aforementioned injuries. I think it might be maybe a

326
00:17:21,966 --> 00:17:25,486
Speaker 1: mental block, right. It's tough, especially what all the eyes

327
00:17:25,486 --> 00:17:28,246
Speaker 1: are on you when there's all of these headlines too.

328
00:17:28,326 --> 00:17:33,326
Speaker 1: I do think that like for Shanahan, he has continuously

329
00:17:33,446 --> 00:17:37,566
Speaker 1: proven that he's like it doesn't matter who's under center, Like,

330
00:17:37,606 --> 00:17:40,166
Speaker 1: I'm going to make it work. My offensive scheme isn't

331
00:17:40,206 --> 00:17:42,846
Speaker 1: that good. I'm that good of a mastermind and he's right,

332
00:17:43,206 --> 00:17:47,366
Speaker 1: he is, but you still got to have the building blocks.

333
00:17:47,366 --> 00:17:51,246
Speaker 1: There credits to brock for taking the opportunity and showcasing

334
00:17:51,286 --> 00:17:53,646
Speaker 1: what he has like this is not he is the exception,

335
00:17:53,766 --> 00:17:57,286
Speaker 1: not the rule. But now he's QB one. Good for you.

336
00:17:57,446 --> 00:18:00,006
Speaker 1: I love it. I love this for you, Brock. But

337
00:18:00,566 --> 00:18:05,286
Speaker 1: in terms of Trey's future, I think think if any

338
00:18:05,366 --> 00:18:08,446
Speaker 1: team understands next man up, it's the forty nine Ers,

339
00:18:08,486 --> 00:18:12,086
Speaker 1: and they know that whoever is at QB two has

340
00:18:12,166 --> 00:18:14,046
Speaker 1: to be ready to jump in at any moment. Because

341
00:18:14,046 --> 00:18:17,286
Speaker 1: also Brocket's coming back from a huge injury too, so

342
00:18:17,446 --> 00:18:18,886
Speaker 1: they have to have that insurance.

343
00:18:19,286 --> 00:18:20,566
Speaker 2: Yeah, they need that insurance.

344
00:18:20,726 --> 00:18:23,206
Speaker 3: And it sounds like he's now going to be throwing

345
00:18:23,246 --> 00:18:27,606
Speaker 3: without any restrictions. Now he'll be able to throw the ball.

346
00:18:27,446 --> 00:18:28,846
Speaker 2: For consecutive practices.

347
00:18:28,966 --> 00:18:33,286
Speaker 3: So we'll see how the backup quarterback battle shakes out

348
00:18:33,406 --> 00:18:36,806
Speaker 3: in San Francisco. But on the other side of the

349
00:18:36,886 --> 00:18:39,766
Speaker 3: break here on the l Huddle Podcast MJ, we've got

350
00:18:39,806 --> 00:18:44,606
Speaker 3: the Chargers play by play man Adrian Garcia Marquez can't

351
00:18:44,646 --> 00:18:48,246
Speaker 3: wait for that conversation. We delve into it stay tuned

Speaker 2: MJ.

354
00:18:57,766 --> 00:19:02,806
Speaker 3: We've got another great guest, right, that's what we should

355
00:19:02,846 --> 00:19:09,086
Speaker 3: call him. He is the Spanish play by play announcer

356
00:19:09,446 --> 00:19:12,966
Speaker 3: for the Chargers. In addition to that, he's calling things

357
00:19:12,966 --> 00:19:18,126
Speaker 3: for Fox Soccer MLS season past. He does everything baseball

358
00:19:18,406 --> 00:19:21,966
Speaker 3: you name. It is a great pleasure to have him

00:19:21,966 --> 00:19:24,446
Speaker 3: here on the L Huddle Podcast. Let's give a warm

360
00:19:24,526 --> 00:19:33,206

00:19:37,246 --> 00:19:38,846
Speaker 4: Thank you guys for having me appreciate And.

362
00:19:38,806 --> 00:19:42,206
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, like people probably are putting like they're like,

363
00:19:42,246 --> 00:19:44,406
Speaker 1: wait a minute, Like they hear your voice and they

364
00:19:44,406 --> 00:19:47,566
Speaker 1: can recognize it instantly from some of the most memorable

365
00:19:48,126 --> 00:19:51,566
Speaker 1: sports moments right en Espanol, most recently the Super Bowl.

366
00:19:51,606 --> 00:19:53,606
Speaker 1: Are you kidding? One of the craziest Super Bowls you've

367
00:19:53,606 --> 00:19:57,406
Speaker 1: probably ever seen. But this has been incredible and I

368
00:19:57,726 --> 00:20:00,606
Speaker 1: love that you're also the the what we will call

369
00:20:00,766 --> 00:20:05,686
Speaker 1: lavos of the Chargers because there's so much has around

370
00:20:05,726 --> 00:20:08,126
Speaker 1: this team every year, I feel like that's the case

371
00:20:08,126 --> 00:20:11,166
Speaker 1: with the Chargers and some things always go amiss, but

372
00:20:11,366 --> 00:20:14,486
Speaker 1: I haven't felt it hit a peak like it has

373
00:20:14,726 --> 00:20:17,686
Speaker 1: this preseason. So how does it feel to be one

374
00:20:17,806 --> 00:20:20,726
Speaker 1: voice of the Chargers and really, how how are you

375
00:20:20,766 --> 00:20:21,806
Speaker 1: feeling ahead of this season?

376
00:20:23,406 --> 00:20:25,046
Speaker 6: That first and foremost, again, thank you very much for

377
00:20:25,086 --> 00:20:27,286
Speaker 6: having me on onuther. And I know that this with

378
00:20:27,406 --> 00:20:31,606
Speaker 6: thirty one million fresh new fans Hispanic fans for NFL,

379
00:20:32,166 --> 00:20:35,526
Speaker 6: and he's growing. By twenty fifty, we're supposed to be

380
00:20:35,526 --> 00:20:39,766
Speaker 6: at two fifty and we're growing. I appreciate being on this.

381
00:20:40,606 --> 00:20:42,726
Speaker 6: As far as Charge of Power is concerned, that, yeah,

382
00:20:43,006 --> 00:20:47,846
Speaker 6: it's super exciting. We use the words charge of power

383
00:20:47,886 --> 00:20:50,926
Speaker 6: as we get going. I do believe that that we

384
00:20:51,006 --> 00:20:55,446
Speaker 6: will have a great season. The buzz is is phenomenal.

385
00:20:55,486 --> 00:20:57,806
Speaker 6: I mean, just just look at the way things look

386
00:20:57,886 --> 00:21:00,406
Speaker 6: at the very end when cj Okoye, who's part of

387
00:21:00,406 --> 00:21:04,206
Speaker 6: the International Pathway Program rallied around him. That tells you

388
00:21:04,246 --> 00:21:06,046
Speaker 6: everything you need know about how the Chargers are feeling

389
00:21:06,086 --> 00:21:08,806
Speaker 6: right now. Chemistry wise, from one to the last guy,

390
00:21:08,846 --> 00:21:12,006
Speaker 6: the last possibility maybe to jump onto the roster, everybody's

391
00:21:12,086 --> 00:21:15,206
Speaker 6: rooting for each other. There's belief in Inglewood right now

392
00:21:15,206 --> 00:21:17,046
Speaker 6: that this is a Super Bowl contending roster.

393
00:21:17,246 --> 00:21:19,646
Speaker 4: Just things have to fall in place. This is a

394
00:21:19,766 --> 00:21:21,486
Speaker 4: talented on paper as they've been in a while.

395
00:21:22,166 --> 00:21:25,086
Speaker 3: They're a talented team, Adrian, but there also seems to

396
00:21:25,126 --> 00:21:28,446
Speaker 3: be that pressure and it seems to be really heaped

397
00:21:28,606 --> 00:21:32,846
Speaker 3: on Los Hombros. The Brandon Staley at this point, How

398
00:21:32,886 --> 00:21:35,206
Speaker 3: important is this season for him?

399
00:21:36,486 --> 00:21:38,286
Speaker 6: I think it's altal important. We all see it, right,

400
00:21:38,326 --> 00:21:40,806
Speaker 6: you know, he understands it. But as an NFL head coach,

401
00:21:40,886 --> 00:21:42,806
Speaker 6: we've seen it. We've talked to these guys. I mean,

402
00:21:43,046 --> 00:21:45,046
Speaker 6: they know it's about the next practice, the next day,

403
00:21:45,126 --> 00:21:48,086
Speaker 6: the preparation for the next Sunday, the following game.

404
00:21:48,326 --> 00:21:50,326
Speaker 4: They're not looking too far in. And I love Brandon Stateia.

405
00:21:50,326 --> 00:21:51,126
Speaker 4: I gotta be honest with you.

406
00:21:51,166 --> 00:21:53,206
Speaker 6: I mean I got here right on time, and then

407
00:21:53,286 --> 00:21:54,966
Speaker 6: right as we got to the pandemic when we're doing

408
00:21:55,006 --> 00:21:58,086
Speaker 6: games in an empty SOFI. I like the culture change

409
00:21:58,126 --> 00:22:00,886
Speaker 6: that he brought with them. I just saw it almost instantly.

410
00:22:01,006 --> 00:22:04,366
Speaker 6: Just things changed, whole new attitude. Everybody's accountable. He takes

411
00:22:04,366 --> 00:22:06,606
Speaker 6: everybody to account. I know a lot of people have

412
00:22:06,606 --> 00:22:08,646
Speaker 6: gotten on him about you know, like when they criticize

413
00:22:08,646 --> 00:22:10,566
Speaker 6: the fourth down situations and things like, oh man, he's

414
00:22:10,606 --> 00:22:13,086
Speaker 6: taking some crazy risks. But the guy delegates and he

415
00:22:13,166 --> 00:22:14,926
Speaker 6: talks to his coaching staff. He talks to the players

416
00:22:14,966 --> 00:22:17,006
Speaker 6: and when guys say, hey, coach, we'll get you that

417
00:22:17,006 --> 00:22:18,886
Speaker 6: first down or we'll make that stop on the Raiders,

418
00:22:18,926 --> 00:22:20,686
Speaker 6: and if they didn't do it, that's not on him.

419
00:22:20,686 --> 00:22:22,606
Speaker 6: I think the culture is there though to win. He

420
00:22:22,686 --> 00:22:24,806
Speaker 6: knows that it's time to win, and I think the

421
00:22:24,806 --> 00:22:26,446
Speaker 6: rest of the roster and the guys that are rallying

422
00:22:26,446 --> 00:22:28,646
Speaker 6: around him understand this. And I think we're in for

423
00:22:28,646 --> 00:22:30,406
Speaker 6: a good season. And I think that this is very well.

424
00:22:30,406 --> 00:22:31,886
Speaker 6: The way that he's kind of worked it out where

425
00:22:32,166 --> 00:22:34,606
Speaker 6: he handles that defense is that's his specialty. Now Callen

426
00:22:34,646 --> 00:22:37,606
Speaker 6: Moore convenient and does these little adjustments with Justin Kurbant,

427
00:22:37,646 --> 00:22:39,246
Speaker 6: and we're seeing some very positive changes.

428
00:22:40,086 --> 00:22:42,326
Speaker 1: I love that you mentioned the culture because let's talk

429
00:22:42,326 --> 00:22:46,806
Speaker 1: about Lactura right because Adriana you you have just been

430
00:22:47,246 --> 00:22:50,246
Speaker 1: one of those figures right within the Spanish broadcasting space.

431
00:22:50,686 --> 00:22:52,966
Speaker 1: But I think we talk a lot about being from

432
00:22:53,046 --> 00:22:56,926
Speaker 1: aki idia Yah and to have that power, because I

433
00:22:56,966 --> 00:22:59,806
Speaker 1: call it a superpower to be bilingual, to to really

434
00:22:59,966 --> 00:23:04,446
Speaker 1: reach our audience in several languages. What led you to

435
00:23:04,486 --> 00:23:05,686
Speaker 1: your care we are on broadcasting.

436
00:23:06,766 --> 00:23:09,006
Speaker 6: It was an accident, you know, it was crazy. I

437
00:23:09,006 --> 00:23:10,646
Speaker 6: was supposed to be high school history teacher. I was

438
00:23:10,686 --> 00:23:15,206
Speaker 6: supposed to be that easy no and your baseball coach

439
00:23:15,206 --> 00:23:17,446
Speaker 6: and your oc for football working with QB's that was

440
00:23:17,446 --> 00:23:18,246
Speaker 6: my master plan.

441
00:23:18,846 --> 00:23:18,966
Speaker 1: Uh.

442
00:23:19,126 --> 00:23:21,406
Speaker 6: I started working for a radio station. One day, jamsy Nati,

443
00:23:22,166 --> 00:23:22,806
Speaker 6: jammezy Nati.

444
00:23:22,846 --> 00:23:22,926
Speaker 5: There.

445
00:23:23,006 --> 00:23:28,126
Speaker 4: You know. I was one of those guys from those

446
00:23:28,126 --> 00:23:28,766
Speaker 4: street buses.

447
00:23:29,046 --> 00:23:32,006
Speaker 6: You guys remember those street buses running around.

448
00:23:33,086 --> 00:23:34,366
Speaker 4: I was them bumper sticker guys.

449
00:23:34,366 --> 00:23:37,806
Speaker 6: So one day DJ doesn't I told I was a

450
00:23:37,886 --> 00:23:39,726
Speaker 6: Jehovah witness kid growing up. So they used to make

451
00:23:39,766 --> 00:23:41,326
Speaker 6: me do like these school stols in front of the

Speaker 6: the Oakland AG. So I went from bumper stickers. This

468
00:24:18,846 --> 00:24:21,606
Speaker 6: is how fast it happened bumper stickers in nineteen ninety

469
00:24:21,766 --> 00:24:24,806
Speaker 6: nine when ninety nine padriat pregame show by two thousand dollars,

470
00:24:24,846 --> 00:24:27,206
Speaker 6: the Voice of Days on opening day, and then by

471
00:24:27,486 --> 00:24:29,926
Speaker 6: just three four five months later, I'm on ESPN doing

472
00:24:29,926 --> 00:24:33,926
Speaker 6: Sunday Night Baseball Giants and Dodgers and making Davy on TV.

473
00:24:34,686 --> 00:24:37,086
Speaker 6: I see, I've been living the dream. And yes it

474
00:24:37,166 --> 00:24:39,166
Speaker 6: happened by accident, but I'm living and loving.

475
00:24:40,246 --> 00:24:44,086
Speaker 1: That's not accident. That's not an accident. That's destiny like

476
00:24:44,126 --> 00:24:45,966
Speaker 1: that you were meant for. I mean, let's ste your boys.

477
00:24:45,966 --> 00:24:48,406
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Like? This was the path? I

478
00:24:48,526 --> 00:24:51,046
Speaker 1: was just that a windows opportunity that opened up to

479
00:24:51,126 --> 00:24:55,006
Speaker 1: you meet us and where we are.

480
00:24:55,326 --> 00:24:56,646
Speaker 4: And telling younger younger.

481
00:24:56,926 --> 00:24:58,966
Speaker 6: You know, you know, people that want to go into broadcasting,

482
00:24:59,046 --> 00:25:01,606
Speaker 6: be a host or play by play whatever, don't let

483
00:25:01,606 --> 00:25:03,446
Speaker 6: anybody tell you, because I heard it all the time.

484
00:25:03,486 --> 00:25:04,126
Speaker 4: They said, Oh, well, you.

485
00:25:04,166 --> 00:25:05,726
Speaker 6: Got to go to Harvard, you got to go to Syracuds,

486
00:25:05,726 --> 00:25:07,926
Speaker 6: you gotta go to USCGA. I went to San Diego

487
00:25:07,926 --> 00:25:09,606
Speaker 6: City College the ends of college, and then I went

488
00:25:09,606 --> 00:25:11,526
Speaker 6: to a trade school for broadcasting because that's when I

489
00:25:11,526 --> 00:25:13,846
Speaker 6: saw the opportunity. I rang with it and I got

490
00:25:13,966 --> 00:25:16,726
Speaker 6: some education. I got some certification. But you don't need

491
00:25:16,766 --> 00:25:18,966
Speaker 6: to have that, you know, Ivy League degree. You just

492
00:25:19,046 --> 00:25:22,646
Speaker 6: need to have the yez. You guys know what that is.

493
00:25:22,646 --> 00:25:26,686
Speaker 6: And the way I got the San Diego flash job.

494
00:25:26,726 --> 00:25:29,486
Speaker 6: I used Sega to make a demo PIFA Soccer on

495
00:25:29,486 --> 00:25:30,726
Speaker 6: Sega's Piefa ninety five.

496
00:25:31,166 --> 00:25:33,166
Speaker 4: I stole the crowd noise from that.

497
00:25:33,006 --> 00:25:38,966
Speaker 6: Fatal Genesis nineteen ninety five FIFA Soccer. I popped in

498
00:25:39,006 --> 00:25:41,846
Speaker 6: there the Sega game. I stole the crowd noise. I

499
00:25:41,886 --> 00:25:44,166
Speaker 6: put it on a boombox. I did my play by

500
00:25:44,166 --> 00:25:48,046
Speaker 6: play recording on Medica game, My Pirate off of boom

501
00:25:48,086 --> 00:25:49,966
Speaker 6: There was my demo and the rest of the history.

502
00:25:50,006 --> 00:25:51,766
Speaker 4: So don't let no one tell you you can't do it.

503
00:25:51,766 --> 00:25:54,606
Speaker 6: If there's a window, this big drive an Optimus Prime

504
00:25:54,646 --> 00:25:56,246
Speaker 6: semi truck through that thing and transform it.

505
00:25:56,726 --> 00:26:00,766
Speaker 1: Think about Latinos. We are resourceful, honey, We're gonna make it.

506
00:26:01,886 --> 00:26:05,206
Speaker 2: Yeah, we will love it, will we will find ways.

507
00:26:05,326 --> 00:26:10,326
Speaker 3: Adrian Felici that right, because what you've done to get

508
00:26:10,366 --> 00:26:14,806
Speaker 3: to this point and the journey you've taken is nothing

509
00:26:14,846 --> 00:26:17,366
Speaker 3: short of amazing. So it is really great to talk

510
00:26:17,406 --> 00:26:21,966
Speaker 3: to you. Guya paranotros. And I'm curious in terms of

511
00:26:22,006 --> 00:26:26,286
Speaker 3: the way you work, because I know, like I dream

512
00:26:26,926 --> 00:26:30,166
Speaker 3: in Espanol right where my wife will say, I heard

513
00:26:30,166 --> 00:26:33,406
Speaker 3: you talking, You're sleep in Spanish, right, So how do

514
00:26:33,646 --> 00:26:38,286
Speaker 3: you work? Do you think of things in Spanish? Everything

515
00:26:38,286 --> 00:26:41,526
Speaker 3: in Spanish? Or do you think of things only in

516
00:26:41,646 --> 00:26:45,286
Speaker 3: English and then do it in Spanish? Like how do

517
00:26:45,326 --> 00:26:49,366
Speaker 3: you prepare for the events that you're calling?

518
00:26:50,566 --> 00:26:52,646
Speaker 6: You know what, that's a great question because that no

519
00:26:52,686 --> 00:26:55,006
Speaker 6: one's ever really asked me that, Like how does your

520
00:26:55,046 --> 00:26:58,006
Speaker 6: brain function? In this case, say the function for both

521
00:26:58,046 --> 00:27:00,126
Speaker 6: I think for us growing up, you know, with with

522
00:27:00,126 --> 00:27:02,806
Speaker 6: with my case Mexican parents. You know, my parents were

523
00:27:02,846 --> 00:27:04,606
Speaker 6: strict in the sense that at home my dad let

524
00:27:04,686 --> 00:27:08,006
Speaker 6: us speak you know, English or whatever we could we did,

525
00:27:08,486 --> 00:27:10,526
Speaker 6: but there was always that, especially with me, there was

526
00:27:10,566 --> 00:27:13,766
Speaker 6: always that discipline Necessarie took fin No, themailone is fine,

527
00:27:14,446 --> 00:27:15,966
Speaker 6: and that's how it kind of kept it. And since

528
00:27:16,006 --> 00:27:17,566
Speaker 6: I was a little kid, I'd be reading in Spanish

529
00:27:17,646 --> 00:27:20,526
Speaker 6: or whatever. So my brain, literally, no joke, guys, is

530
00:27:20,566 --> 00:27:23,126
Speaker 6: divided in half. Half the time I'm thinking and talking

531
00:27:23,166 --> 00:27:26,286
Speaker 6: in Spanish. The other half it's English and and in Lass.

532
00:27:26,326 --> 00:27:28,766
Speaker 6: Sometimes when I'm broadcasting, cables do get crossed, but I

533
00:27:28,846 --> 00:27:31,606
Speaker 6: run with it, you know, like sometimes that in that moment,

534
00:27:31,926 --> 00:27:34,046
Speaker 6: you're saying what you're saying, and so what I throw

535
00:27:34,046 --> 00:27:36,366
Speaker 6: in some pop culture reference a song by the Doors, But.

536
00:27:38,366 --> 00:27:40,726
Speaker 4: You know, like that's how I not going to be like,

537
00:27:40,806 --> 00:27:42,246
Speaker 4: you know, premeditated in that sense.

538
00:27:42,286 --> 00:27:44,086
Speaker 6: It's just kind of like, you know, we have our class,

539
00:27:44,086 --> 00:27:46,806
Speaker 6: we have our way of describing, and it's English or Spanish.

540
00:27:46,806 --> 00:27:50,806
Speaker 6: Sometimes it's Spanlish, you know, because I think nowadays, I

541
00:27:50,806 --> 00:27:52,406
Speaker 6: think a lot of us have this culture as well,

542
00:27:52,486 --> 00:27:54,726
Speaker 6: especially in this country, where you can make the match

543
00:27:54,766 --> 00:27:56,566
Speaker 6: as long as it makes sense and you're having fun

544
00:27:56,606 --> 00:28:00,126
Speaker 6: with it, but you're being genuine because that's what we

545
00:28:00,206 --> 00:28:03,046
Speaker 6: learned from our parents, you know, grandparents. I guess that

546
00:28:04,246 --> 00:28:05,766
Speaker 6: and everything else fall into place.

547
00:28:06,406 --> 00:28:10,006
Speaker 1: Are you first gen like did your parents in mygrant here.

548
00:28:10,526 --> 00:28:12,126
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, my dad and my dad's born in co

549
00:28:13,126 --> 00:28:15,406
Speaker 6: He actually you know him and my parents. My mom

550
00:28:15,486 --> 00:28:17,126
Speaker 6: was born in San Diego, even though she grew up

551
00:28:17,166 --> 00:28:20,366
Speaker 6: in and then that's when they I was born in

552
00:28:20,406 --> 00:28:21,606
Speaker 6: San Diego, California, by accident.

553
00:28:21,646 --> 00:28:23,046
Speaker 4: They went shopping. Uh.

554
00:28:23,806 --> 00:28:26,726
Speaker 6: We lived in Tijuana. They went shopping that day. I

555
00:28:26,766 --> 00:28:28,806
Speaker 6: was two months early. I was a total premium, almost

556
00:28:28,846 --> 00:28:30,766
Speaker 6: three months early, and I wanted to get out. It

557
00:28:30,846 --> 00:28:32,686
Speaker 6: was San Diego.

558
00:28:33,166 --> 00:28:34,486
Speaker 4: I was ready to come into the world.

559
00:28:35,046 --> 00:28:38,606
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I asked because like I we we we

560
00:28:38,646 --> 00:28:41,246
Speaker 1: talked to so many folks, especially like kids of immigrants,

561
00:28:41,326 --> 00:28:47,006
Speaker 1: literally working immigrants, especially first gen right where our parents

562
00:28:47,046 --> 00:28:48,806
Speaker 1: came to this country, and they were like, you have

563
00:28:48,886 --> 00:28:51,286
Speaker 1: to assimilate, you have to learn the language. So I

564
00:28:51,326 --> 00:28:53,726
Speaker 1: find it so interesting because that was similar to my

565
00:28:53,766 --> 00:28:57,686
Speaker 1: experience too, where my parents were like everything in the

566
00:28:57,686 --> 00:29:02,646
Speaker 1: house was in Panol. It was right all the and

567
00:29:02,646 --> 00:29:05,526
Speaker 1: not the Seattle everything was in Spanish. But the experience

568
00:29:05,566 --> 00:29:07,646
Speaker 1: for so many of our peers was the opposite, where

569
00:29:07,646 --> 00:29:10,166
Speaker 1: they're like, you need to learn English, forget about the Spanish,

570
00:29:10,246 --> 00:29:11,926
Speaker 1: like this is where we're here. So it's interesting that

571
00:29:11,966 --> 00:29:13,726
Speaker 1: you mentioned that your dad was like, no, well.

572
00:29:13,646 --> 00:29:16,566
Speaker 3: Because there's some people that there's some people that felt

573
00:29:16,606 --> 00:29:19,206
Speaker 3: it was a great shame to have an accent or

574
00:29:19,446 --> 00:29:23,046
Speaker 3: speak Spanish. It almost feels like it's almost the moda, right.

575
00:29:23,086 --> 00:29:26,606
Speaker 3: It feels like as soon as Ricky Martin came onto

576
00:29:26,646 --> 00:29:29,486
Speaker 3: the scene, it seems like, okay, Latinos, Okay, I see.

577
00:29:29,326 --> 00:29:32,286
Speaker 4: You now a second.

578
00:29:32,726 --> 00:29:34,806
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, well you forget about Richie Valles, you forget

579
00:29:34,806 --> 00:29:36,326
Speaker 6: about all those you know that I had opened the

580
00:29:36,366 --> 00:29:39,966
Speaker 6: door already, like hello, right, right, I get it it.

581
00:29:39,966 --> 00:29:41,926
Speaker 6: It's true, it's kind of and it does. It seems

582
00:29:41,966 --> 00:29:45,166
Speaker 6: sometimes like it's in phases. No, guys, like like the

583
00:29:45,246 --> 00:29:47,086
Speaker 6: Latino market and I said, oh, all right, that's taking care

584
00:29:47,126 --> 00:29:50,446
Speaker 6: of check that barbamost and then correct, yeah, and with us,

585
00:29:50,566 --> 00:29:53,006
Speaker 6: with us, it's not that way. I think we it

586
00:29:53,086 --> 00:29:54,766
Speaker 6: almost like they leave us to gotta going. No, like,

587
00:29:54,766 --> 00:29:56,926
Speaker 6: all right, guys, we open up the doorway now, AMJ.

588
00:29:58,006 --> 00:30:03,166
Speaker 6: You guys all have to kind of get going, and

589
00:30:04,486 --> 00:30:06,246
Speaker 6: we take that responsibility. We don't need to just like

590
00:30:06,286 --> 00:30:08,606
Speaker 6: our parents, they leave us. I'm the oldest, right, so

591
00:30:08,646 --> 00:30:11,806
Speaker 6: I would be a people. We have to settlemano. So

592
00:30:11,806 --> 00:30:13,726
Speaker 6: you got to sit there, do the homework and be

593
00:30:13,846 --> 00:30:16,406
Speaker 6: the extra parents. So I think we've already learned to

594
00:30:16,446 --> 00:30:18,966
Speaker 6: recognize those moments when we're left with the responsibility of

595
00:30:19,046 --> 00:30:22,526
Speaker 6: unwritten responsibility. And I think that now as part of

596
00:30:22,566 --> 00:30:24,646
Speaker 6: this whole Mundo NFL that we are a part of

597
00:30:25,286 --> 00:30:28,126
Speaker 6: and that we're helping grow, I think it's our responsibility

598
00:30:28,126 --> 00:30:30,006
Speaker 6: to just we don't need anybody to kind of coach

599
00:30:30,086 --> 00:30:32,486
Speaker 6: us through this anymore. It's more like we know how

600
00:30:32,526 --> 00:30:34,646
Speaker 6: to connect with our audience. Just let it be like

601
00:30:34,646 --> 00:30:37,526
Speaker 6: the Beatles will, let it flow and like it has

602
00:30:37,566 --> 00:30:38,886
Speaker 6: my dad did back in the day.

603
00:30:38,926 --> 00:30:41,886
Speaker 4: It's like a better kid.

604
00:30:42,246 --> 00:30:45,366
Speaker 6: And honestly, though, here's what's crazy. I'm the one that

605
00:30:45,486 --> 00:30:47,966
Speaker 6: listened being the oldest one or whatever we have to write.

606
00:30:48,526 --> 00:30:51,366
Speaker 6: But my brothers, my little brothers and my sister, they

607
00:30:51,406 --> 00:30:53,726
Speaker 6: speak a lot less SPI than I do. It's weird

608
00:30:53,926 --> 00:30:56,806
Speaker 6: helping these but it's just it's going to be whoever

609
00:30:56,846 --> 00:31:00,246
Speaker 6: gravitates towards it. So the kids out there think bilingually,

610
00:31:00,486 --> 00:31:03,606
Speaker 6: be by culture. If you can have three cultures, go ahead.

611
00:31:04,206 --> 00:31:05,766
Speaker 6: I think the more to marry and the more that

612
00:31:05,806 --> 00:31:08,526
Speaker 6: we we demonstrate that part of that, that that diversity

613
00:31:08,566 --> 00:31:10,806
Speaker 6: that's the most important thing I've seen out of the NFL.

614
00:31:10,846 --> 00:31:12,366
Speaker 4: And look how beautiful stadium.

615
00:31:12,526 --> 00:31:17,646
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Rams, you can have.

616
00:31:17,606 --> 00:31:21,286
Speaker 4: It when it's your house. Doesn't feel like there's a

617
00:31:21,366 --> 00:31:24,726
Speaker 4: much better vibe with the charge of power and the

618
00:31:24,766 --> 00:31:35,166
Speaker 4: powder blues I see.

619
00:31:36,046 --> 00:31:38,846
Speaker 3: And and so you know, we we talk about how

620
00:31:39,126 --> 00:31:44,926
Speaker 3: how like our parents said a key. Okay, So I'm

621
00:31:44,926 --> 00:31:48,086
Speaker 3: the outlier here in this conversation. I was the youngest,

622
00:31:48,246 --> 00:31:54,886
Speaker 3: but it was the same thing, right, And so for

623
00:31:55,006 --> 00:31:57,646
Speaker 3: me that's how how we how we grew up. But

624
00:31:57,686 --> 00:32:00,926
Speaker 3: it's it's funny that I think people sometimes think that

625
00:32:01,006 --> 00:32:07,926
Speaker 3: Latinos have to fit a certain well a certain sound meaning.

626
00:32:07,966 --> 00:32:10,846
Speaker 3: So for me, it's like, okay, William, Okay, that's my name.

627
00:32:10,926 --> 00:32:13,166
Speaker 3: But people like, wait, wait a second, I don't know.

628
00:32:13,206 --> 00:32:17,966
Speaker 3: Selva means la selva right, like jungle. But but unless

629
00:32:18,006 --> 00:32:22,166
Speaker 3: it's unless it's Pedro Carlito, because people people always say that,

630
00:32:22,206 --> 00:32:23,606
Speaker 3: it's like, why not pedro Carlito.

631
00:32:23,686 --> 00:32:25,686
Speaker 2: It's like, well, no, will that doesn't.

632
00:32:25,406 --> 00:32:28,486
Speaker 3: Make me any less any less, you know, And that's

633
00:32:28,526 --> 00:32:31,166
Speaker 3: that's kind of we come in all shapes and sizes,

634
00:32:31,206 --> 00:32:33,206
Speaker 3: And that's always the message that I tell people. It's

635
00:32:33,246 --> 00:32:35,606
Speaker 3: just just because my skin's a little wider doesn't mean

636
00:32:35,646 --> 00:32:40,526
Speaker 3: I'm any less Latino, right, And.

637
00:32:39,326 --> 00:32:42,046
Speaker 2: That's what's really important. We have grand cultura.

638
00:32:42,166 --> 00:32:46,326
Speaker 7: Right, Yeah, there's a spectrum, and I agree with you,

639
00:32:46,326 --> 00:32:49,326
Speaker 7: you know, yeah, yeah, And so it looks because I mean,

640
00:32:49,486 --> 00:32:51,846
Speaker 7: you see, even we're reported you shot the other day,

641
00:32:52,286 --> 00:32:54,366
Speaker 7: uh you know, a guy making a mistake assuming that

642
00:32:54,446 --> 00:32:56,806
Speaker 7: because he saw a kid look at certain you know,

643
00:32:56,886 --> 00:32:58,886
Speaker 7: like a prototype for him for the interview for the

644
00:32:58,926 --> 00:32:59,566
Speaker 7: Mexico game.

645
00:32:59,606 --> 00:33:01,326
Speaker 4: And he asked the kid, and the kid is like

646
00:33:01,406 --> 00:33:03,846
Speaker 4: what you know, like, you know.

647
00:33:03,766 --> 00:33:06,806
Speaker 6: You can't be careful, you can't protot that because you're right,

648
00:33:07,166 --> 00:33:08,646
Speaker 6: you know. And that's what it is that we're not.

649
00:33:08,806 --> 00:33:11,726
Speaker 6: We don't come in one shape, one color, or one

650
00:33:11,766 --> 00:33:13,366
Speaker 6: I think on this fin we all have a little

651
00:33:13,366 --> 00:33:15,326
Speaker 6: bit of a different sense. It's gotta even need. So

652
00:33:15,366 --> 00:33:18,286
Speaker 6: sometimes it's more Sola Americano or whatever, but we're all

653
00:33:18,686 --> 00:33:21,286
Speaker 6: in this huntos. Look look how we all gravitate towards

654
00:33:21,286 --> 00:33:23,246
Speaker 6: each other in the business, you know, like like we'll

655
00:33:23,286 --> 00:33:25,446
Speaker 6: be working next thing, you know, We're all lined up

656
00:33:25,566 --> 00:33:27,366
Speaker 6: like you know, Korea.

657
00:33:28,966 --> 00:33:30,406
Speaker 4: So it's kind of like where.

658
00:33:30,206 --> 00:33:32,606
Speaker 6: Where you feel that I love our community in an

659
00:33:32,646 --> 00:33:35,366
Speaker 6: NFL in particular, in sports in general. But I like

660
00:33:35,406 --> 00:33:38,166
Speaker 6: what I've seen, especially out of the NFL. I think

661
00:33:38,206 --> 00:33:40,166
Speaker 6: you guys have done a really good job. I know

662
00:33:40,246 --> 00:33:41,726
Speaker 6: that we try to do it as play by play

663
00:33:41,766 --> 00:33:44,246
Speaker 6: and analysts and a bunch of pintos all for it

664
00:33:44,286 --> 00:33:44,646
Speaker 6: as well.

665
00:33:44,726 --> 00:33:47,006
Speaker 4: And my colleague Roly can do my brother, you.

666
00:33:46,926 --> 00:33:51,646
Speaker 6: Know about pushing it positively right and and and being

667
00:33:51,726 --> 00:33:53,286
Speaker 6: there and being in here. If kids want to hit

668
00:33:53,326 --> 00:33:54,926
Speaker 6: us up, I know we have guys. And so now

669
00:33:54,926 --> 00:33:56,606
Speaker 6: that these kids do a great job called below the

670
00:33:56,606 --> 00:33:58,406
Speaker 6: football and they have this vision, I like what they're

671
00:33:58,606 --> 00:34:00,526
Speaker 6: I like the energy that I'm seeing out of that

672
00:34:00,566 --> 00:34:02,926
Speaker 6: next generation that's going to come and pressure us out

673
00:34:02,926 --> 00:34:10,766
Speaker 6: of if we don't hate Gallo, we don't do already

674
00:34:11,366 --> 00:34:14,726
Speaker 6: Highlight Highlight For preseason, there was like four or five

675
00:34:14,766 --> 00:34:16,046
Speaker 6: kids alread saying, Hey, I want to be the voice

676
00:34:16,086 --> 00:34:22,326
Speaker 6: of the Chargers already like all other podcasts.

677
00:34:22,966 --> 00:34:26,326
Speaker 1: Yeah, but but you're right, I mean like there's this

678
00:34:26,446 --> 00:34:30,646
Speaker 1: like unspoken connection within l right, like Will and I

679
00:34:30,646 --> 00:34:34,926
Speaker 1: immediately connected are our know as well Omar Ruiz in

680
00:34:35,046 --> 00:34:38,566
Speaker 1: the at the network too. But it's like where you

681
00:34:38,606 --> 00:34:40,886
Speaker 1: talk about this next generation, the next twenty right, who

682
00:34:41,086 --> 00:34:44,286
Speaker 1: want to quote unquote take our jobs. I can't wait

683
00:34:44,326 --> 00:34:46,486
Speaker 1: for the day when that's not the case, when there

684
00:34:46,526 --> 00:34:49,886
Speaker 1: is so much more room to have a multitude of

685
00:34:49,926 --> 00:34:52,766
Speaker 1: Latinos from all different parts of the world being in

686
00:34:52,766 --> 00:34:55,726
Speaker 1: the same space to show that true representation, right, because

687
00:34:55,726 --> 00:34:58,206
Speaker 1: I think in so many capacities, it's like to what

688
00:34:58,246 --> 00:35:00,206
Speaker 1: you were saying earlier, All right, we got a couple,

689
00:35:00,206 --> 00:35:02,286
Speaker 1: we checked the box. We're good in like so many

690
00:35:02,286 --> 00:35:05,726
Speaker 1: instances when it's like, no more of us aside from

691
00:35:05,726 --> 00:35:08,886
Speaker 1: what we bring culturally, the work that we've put in,

692
00:35:09,046 --> 00:35:11,086
Speaker 1: the expertise that we put in, and the talent that

693
00:35:11,126 --> 00:35:14,606
Speaker 1: we put in is very, very valuable. We're also the

694
00:35:14,846 --> 00:35:19,366
Speaker 1: fastest growing demographic if you're just talking United States, which

695
00:35:19,366 --> 00:35:22,726
Speaker 1: of course now even the NFL is not just a

696
00:35:22,886 --> 00:35:26,126
Speaker 1: sport here, it's global, so to that. And you of

697
00:35:26,126 --> 00:35:28,206
Speaker 1: course called the Super Bowl, you've called the World Series,

698
00:35:28,486 --> 00:35:31,526
Speaker 1: called the World Cup. Is there a favorite one that

699
00:35:31,606 --> 00:35:32,446
Speaker 1: stands out more?

700
00:35:32,566 --> 00:35:34,726
Speaker 6: You know what, there is a favorite moment. It has

701
00:35:34,766 --> 00:35:36,366
Speaker 6: nothing to do with the championship. And I know that

702
00:35:36,526 --> 00:35:39,366
Speaker 6: this is kind of blasphemy for a broadcaster especially, We've

703
00:35:39,686 --> 00:35:44,406
Speaker 6: been having these events and having these opportunities.

704
00:35:44,726 --> 00:35:45,766
Speaker 4: But Kobe's last.

705
00:35:45,566 --> 00:35:52,526
Speaker 6: Game guys games Lakers for six seven years there and

706
00:35:52,526 --> 00:35:54,566
Speaker 6: and I got to call it Macho's last performance. And

707
00:35:54,606 --> 00:35:56,526
Speaker 6: it was still to this day when people ask me,

708
00:35:56,566 --> 00:35:58,006
Speaker 6: what was that like, it felt like a dream.

709
00:35:58,406 --> 00:35:59,606
Speaker 4: It felt like a dream, and it.

710
00:35:59,646 --> 00:36:02,526
Speaker 6: Stiels still something can buzzist consect Kobe Pan Bryant. I

711
00:36:02,566 --> 00:36:06,246
Speaker 6: mean it was magical. I mean again, like you said,

712
00:36:06,246 --> 00:36:10,446
Speaker 6: and super Bowls kept up super Bowl. You know, you

713
00:36:10,446 --> 00:36:11,926
Speaker 6: get a couple of super Bowls in, there's some world

714
00:36:11,926 --> 00:36:14,366
Speaker 6: series whatever, you get to cover the world up. But

715
00:36:14,366 --> 00:36:17,566
Speaker 6: but Kobe's last game, you know, it's just it was

716
00:36:17,606 --> 00:36:19,566
Speaker 6: just something else. It was something else. Like I said

717
00:36:19,566 --> 00:36:22,006
Speaker 6: that day, the moment we wake wake, woke up. We

718
00:36:22,046 --> 00:36:24,046
Speaker 6: all we've all discussed this, right, Like, how did it

719
00:36:24,086 --> 00:36:26,006
Speaker 6: feel to you that day? Well, we all come back

720
00:36:26,006 --> 00:36:28,366
Speaker 6: to it felt like a swinger, Like from the moment

721
00:36:28,406 --> 00:36:30,806
Speaker 6: you were already in it, something felt different, like you

722
00:36:30,846 --> 00:36:34,646
Speaker 6: were in some movie and it was Kobe's movie, and

723
00:36:34,766 --> 00:36:37,606
Speaker 6: there was a magic in the air, and lo and behold,

724
00:36:37,926 --> 00:36:38,486
Speaker 6: it took over.

725
00:36:38,806 --> 00:36:39,766
Speaker 4: It took over that night.

726
00:36:39,806 --> 00:36:41,926
Speaker 6: And and and I think for me that's probably my

727
00:36:42,006 --> 00:36:43,606
Speaker 6: most favorite broadcast ever.

728
00:36:44,006 --> 00:36:46,646
Speaker 4: It did to call Kobe uh Kobe's last game?

729
00:36:51,846 --> 00:36:54,726
Speaker 6: Did he speak, Yes, you guys want you guys, you

Speaker 4: The door before the rest of the meeting.

739
00:37:14,926 --> 00:37:16,846
Speaker 6: So we were there privy to practice to a lot

740
00:37:16,846 --> 00:37:18,686
Speaker 6: of the stuff that was happening earlier in the day

741
00:37:18,726 --> 00:37:20,886
Speaker 6: before the rest of the media got in there. One

742
00:37:20,926 --> 00:37:23,486
Speaker 6: of those occasions, Jordan Clarkson throw a puppy bradey Bushy

743
00:37:23,886 --> 00:37:29,126
Speaker 6: started proving himself in the NBA. He's marking up on Kobe.

744
00:37:29,646 --> 00:37:32,086
Speaker 6: Takes Kobe's ball like you know, Kobe was trying to

745
00:37:32,086 --> 00:37:35,326
Speaker 6: get to the rack. Kid took and swipe and Kobe goes, oh.

746
00:37:35,366 --> 00:37:37,886
Speaker 6: He grabs the ball and he can I say in Spanish?

747
00:37:37,966 --> 00:37:38,966
Speaker 6: Can I I can't curse?

748
00:37:39,006 --> 00:37:41,006
Speaker 1: Can I whatever you want?

749
00:37:41,086 --> 00:37:41,206
Speaker 4: Yes?

750
00:37:41,286 --> 00:37:46,286
Speaker 6: Yeah, Kobe grabs the basketball and he goes halfway across

751
00:37:46,326 --> 00:37:49,006
Speaker 6: the court. I got up, no joke, I got up

752
00:37:49,046 --> 00:37:51,206
Speaker 6: like this, like and a tears come in my eye

753
00:37:51,246 --> 00:37:56,526
Speaker 6: like and he just looked at me and he went like, sef.

754
00:37:58,766 --> 00:37:59,526
Speaker 4: Ma tro Yeah.

755
00:37:59,726 --> 00:38:02,166
Speaker 6: So he would speak Spanish for sure. And then one

756
00:38:02,206 --> 00:38:03,846
Speaker 6: of the best things, in fact, I have this out

757
00:38:03,846 --> 00:38:06,446
Speaker 6: with Herbert right now. I said, okay, but in see

758

Speaker 6: pass full, if you're listening your next we'd due.

759
00:38:08,926 --> 00:38:09,086
Speaker 3: Uh.

760
00:38:09,166 --> 00:38:11,086
Speaker 6: I dropped the challenge on him. So Kobe when we

761
00:38:11,126 --> 00:38:13,446
Speaker 6: first did that first interview for when it was Spectrum

762
00:38:13,486 --> 00:38:16,006
Speaker 6: and Time Warning, when we were starting out with Laker TV,

763
00:38:17,086 --> 00:38:20,326
Speaker 6: I said, hey, Los, give me a year and we'll

764
00:38:20,366 --> 00:38:22,606
Speaker 6: do the whole interview in Spanish. But give me one

765
00:38:22,606 --> 00:38:26,166
Speaker 6: season and say, okay, Norman back and forth by linguo whatever.

766
00:38:26,526 --> 00:38:29,726
Speaker 6: The next year we're at media day on the liston

767
00:38:29,846 --> 00:38:34,726
Speaker 6: he goes. I knew right there was ready interview and

768
00:38:34,806 --> 00:38:37,966
Speaker 6: it's finel in Bechgawerley, Kobe Bean Bran in Beachgawary.

769
00:38:38,446 --> 00:38:38,966
Speaker 4: Great.

770
00:38:39,286 --> 00:38:42,046
Speaker 6: I mean that just tells you the type of Stone

771
00:38:42,046 --> 00:38:44,126
Speaker 6: Cooke killer he was. That whatever he put his mind to,

772
00:38:44,606 --> 00:38:46,926
Speaker 6: the guy got it done. And obviously the Taliano helped

773
00:38:46,926 --> 00:38:48,326
Speaker 6: with the transition in a lot of the way that

774
00:38:48,326 --> 00:38:51,726
Speaker 6: he speak. Uh, Kobe was that type of guy. So

775
00:38:51,766 --> 00:38:54,846
Speaker 6: I told Herbert, hey, Kobe did this sped on nine you?

776
00:38:54,886 --> 00:38:56,166
Speaker 6: So I'm giving you a year. We're good And he said,

777
00:38:56,206 --> 00:38:58,126
Speaker 6: all right, I'm down. I'll do the interview in this final.

778
00:38:58,206 --> 00:39:01,326
Speaker 6: So hopefully soon we'll have an interview on Buddle Chargers

779
00:39:01,406 --> 00:39:04,166
Speaker 6: with Justin Herbert Budos or most of it.

780
00:39:06,086 --> 00:39:07,046
Speaker 4: Would you be teaching?

781
00:39:08,166 --> 00:39:08,966
Speaker 2: So would you be?

782
00:39:09,126 --> 00:39:12,206
Speaker 6: He actually told me he took Spanish courses uh through

783
00:39:12,246 --> 00:39:15,606
Speaker 6: his school growing up. He gravitated towards this final, so

784
00:39:15,606 --> 00:39:18,606
Speaker 6: it's not alien to him. It's something like it's going

785
00:39:18,646 --> 00:39:20,726
Speaker 6: like many of Ramirez with the English, like many have

786
00:39:20,766 --> 00:39:22,646
Speaker 6: spoke a lot more English than he led you to

787
00:39:22,686 --> 00:39:25,446
Speaker 6: believe he's just the media. And I don't think that

788
00:39:25,526 --> 00:39:27,366
Speaker 6: this is the case with Justin's just that he's just

789
00:39:27,806 --> 00:39:30,326
Speaker 6: he's usual. He doesn't show you all the cards that

790
00:39:30,326 --> 00:39:32,406
Speaker 6: he's got going on and and uh, and I think

791
00:39:32,406 --> 00:39:34,606
Speaker 6: that's one of those things he has. Boa there's more

792
00:39:34,606 --> 00:39:37,926
Speaker 6: to meet the eye than than the Princia pass. Kendricks

793
00:39:37,966 --> 00:39:42,286
Speaker 6: with the sham isn't enigma?

794
00:39:42,766 --> 00:39:42,966
Speaker 4: Yeah?

795
00:39:43,006 --> 00:39:46,046
Speaker 3: Well, well, Adrian and I feel like there's now we're

796
00:39:46,086 --> 00:39:49,806
Speaker 3: seeing around the NFL guys who are wanting to speak Spanish,

797
00:39:50,086 --> 00:39:53,846
Speaker 3: that there is really this thirst, this hunger to want

798
00:39:53,886 --> 00:39:58,326
Speaker 3: to talk and Espanol. And we saw Marvin Jones do

799
00:39:58,446 --> 00:40:00,806
Speaker 3: it when he did a postgame interview. It just feels

800
00:40:00,846 --> 00:40:04,686
Speaker 3: like more and more players are gravitating to the language.

801
00:40:05,366 --> 00:40:07,166
Speaker 4: Well, you mentioned Marvin Jones. I mean I was there

802
00:40:07,206 --> 00:40:07,526
Speaker 4: that night.

803
00:40:07,726 --> 00:40:09,406
Speaker 6: I was calling that game for Amazon when he when

804
00:40:09,406 --> 00:40:10,926
Speaker 6: he pulled that on us, I was like, we got.

805
00:40:10,766 --> 00:40:14,886
Speaker 4: To butt again.

806
00:40:14,966 --> 00:40:18,686
Speaker 6: Back to doing that that right with her parents fixing

807
00:40:18,686 --> 00:40:22,086
Speaker 6: her head. I found out that with Marvin here, he

808
00:40:22,246 --> 00:40:25,286
Speaker 6: spent time in Spain. When he got to Espanyan, he

809
00:40:25,406 --> 00:40:28,046
Speaker 6: dropped the challenge on himself to spend six weeks, give

810
00:40:28,126 --> 00:40:30,606
Speaker 6: himself six weeks cut out of his vacation time or

811
00:40:30,646 --> 00:40:32,886
Speaker 6: whatever he was doing in Spain. He cut out six

812
00:40:32,926 --> 00:40:37,166
Speaker 6: weeks to learn Espian first so he can immerse himself

813
00:40:37,166 --> 00:40:38,166
Speaker 6: in the culture while.

814
00:40:38,006 --> 00:40:40,006
Speaker 4: He was there. Therefore, he was able to do the

815
00:40:40,086 --> 00:40:43,046
Speaker 4: interview with us and Marvin j.

816
00:40:44,566 --> 00:40:48,566
Speaker 1: He was ready to row never by accident. I love

817
00:40:48,606 --> 00:40:51,486
Speaker 1: to hear that. Well, okay, my friend, before we let

818
00:40:51,526 --> 00:40:54,646
Speaker 1: you go, was there a top moment from the Chargers

819
00:40:54,766 --> 00:40:59,046
Speaker 1: season last year? Also, what is the Spanish translation for charge.

820
00:40:59,046 --> 00:41:00,606
Speaker 1: You know, all of all of the teams have it.

821
00:41:00,966 --> 00:41:01,446
Speaker 1: I'm like, s.

822
00:41:03,126 --> 00:41:04,966
Speaker 4: No, no, I mean chargers him.

823
00:41:06,366 --> 00:41:11,086
Speaker 6: From literal okay, gotta gies. Yeah, but I've never honestly

824
00:41:11,486 --> 00:41:13,166
Speaker 6: like this was the rule. Back to this finel in

825
00:41:13,166 --> 00:41:15,486
Speaker 6: the house, right, my dad said, well then they see

826
00:41:15,606 --> 00:41:16,806
Speaker 6: padres and charges.

827
00:41:16,566 --> 00:41:19,406
Speaker 4: Are like is already a word in Spanish, you know,

828
00:41:19,486 --> 00:41:20,806
Speaker 4: like dude, but that's it.

829
00:41:20,926 --> 00:41:23,246
Speaker 6: But chargers right, so lott charger, thttle charger, litt chargers,

830
00:41:23,286 --> 00:41:26,846
Speaker 6: impact of my house Sundays. Can my mom she's the one.

831
00:41:26,886 --> 00:41:28,406
Speaker 6: It was my mom that got me into the chargers,

832
00:41:28,406 --> 00:41:30,126
Speaker 6: not even my dad. It was my mom back in

833
00:41:30,166 --> 00:41:32,446
Speaker 6: eighty two eighty three. If he thought she started she

834
00:41:32,526 --> 00:41:36,566
Speaker 6: loved the chargers and said, yeah it say it's charger charger.

835
00:41:36,566 --> 00:41:38,886
Speaker 6: I don't want anybody making noise at one pm. One

836
00:41:38,886 --> 00:41:42,406
Speaker 6: pms can't up like and if we clean up our room.

837
00:41:42,406 --> 00:41:44,966
Speaker 6: We got ourself with Burrito Supreme as the premier. That

838
00:41:45,046 --> 00:41:50,366
Speaker 6: was my premio for the Supreme Poom chargers.

839
00:41:51,126 --> 00:41:53,046
Speaker 4: But but but it comes down to that.

840
00:41:53,086 --> 00:41:56,766
Speaker 6: So I think it's as far as the chargers moments

841
00:41:56,846 --> 00:41:57,886
Speaker 6: are are are concerned.

842
00:41:57,886 --> 00:42:01,686
Speaker 4: I think for last year in particular, way.

843
00:42:02,046 --> 00:42:03,886
Speaker 6: It's gonna sound weird, but I think it's the moment

844
00:42:03,886 --> 00:42:06,926
Speaker 6: that changes everything, dropping that twenty seven nothing and letting

845
00:42:06,926 --> 00:42:07,566
Speaker 6: that lead.

846
00:42:07,646 --> 00:42:08,526
Speaker 4: Get away from them.

847
00:42:08,686 --> 00:42:11,326
Speaker 6: I don't think justin Herbert or anybody else in that

848
00:42:11,366 --> 00:42:13,566
Speaker 6: locker room, everyone wants to experience that ever again.

849
00:42:14,006 --> 00:42:15,246
Speaker 4: They had that taste in their mouth.

850
00:42:15,286 --> 00:42:18,206
Speaker 6: They had seven months to get over that, and I

851
00:42:18,206 --> 00:42:20,286
Speaker 6: think they're over it. I don't hear anybody talking about

852
00:42:20,526 --> 00:42:23,246
Speaker 6: lamenting the fact that I think that wasn't my favorite moment,

853
00:42:23,246 --> 00:42:25,206
Speaker 6: but that's gonna be. I think it's a pivotal moment

854
00:42:25,246 --> 00:42:26,926
Speaker 6: for the Charger culture moving forward.

855
00:42:27,326 --> 00:42:28,246
Speaker 4: That you know they got.

856
00:42:28,166 --> 00:42:30,446
Speaker 6: Humbled, you know, in that sense, and they all know it.

857
00:42:30,486 --> 00:42:33,486
Speaker 6: But as far as my mom, to be honest with you,

858
00:42:33,566 --> 00:42:36,046
Speaker 6: there was there was. There was just a lot of

859
00:42:36,086 --> 00:42:38,486
Speaker 6: stuff going on last year. But I think one of

860
00:42:38,566 --> 00:42:41,526
Speaker 6: my favorite moments, honestly is like I'm in Miami and

861
00:42:41,566 --> 00:42:43,606
Speaker 6: to my friends at Telemundo, and I know, you guys

862
00:42:43,686 --> 00:42:45,246
Speaker 6: know all the all the great people that do stuff

863
00:42:45,246 --> 00:42:47,566
Speaker 6: there for donfl and all that we have to do

864
00:42:47,646 --> 00:42:49,926
Speaker 6: some magic, the magic of television. So I'm in Miami

865
00:42:50,366 --> 00:42:53,606
Speaker 6: and I'm doing the Chargers Dolphins game from Miami because

866
00:42:53,606 --> 00:42:55,846
Speaker 6: I was doing Sunday night football as well and all

867
00:42:55,886 --> 00:42:56,286
Speaker 6: that stuff.

868
00:42:56,366 --> 00:42:57,766
Speaker 1: How do I know I was gonna come down to

869
00:42:57,806 --> 00:42:58,206
Speaker 1: this game?

870
00:42:58,406 --> 00:43:08,446
Speaker 4: Wow? God, yes, I'm sorry. I up for this and

871
00:43:08,566 --> 00:43:09,966
Speaker 4: and but that's that was.

872
00:43:09,926 --> 00:43:11,766
Speaker 6: The whole the whole key with the whole vibe, right,

873
00:43:11,846 --> 00:43:15,726
Speaker 6: is that we've been broadcasting games, uh from Miami. Bancho

874
00:43:15,846 --> 00:43:18,126
Speaker 6: was wherever the Chargers were at and we were simulcasting

875
00:43:18,126 --> 00:43:20,246
Speaker 6: it as if we were in the same boot. And

876
00:43:20,286 --> 00:43:22,526
Speaker 6: that just speaks volumes of Bancho pinto as well as

877
00:43:22,526 --> 00:43:24,566
Speaker 6: and then was to understand my paydents and my timing

878
00:43:24,566 --> 00:43:26,566
Speaker 6: and when they jumping, we were ever free and all

879
00:43:26,566 --> 00:43:28,886
Speaker 6: that stuff. But that for me, that was the favorite

880
00:43:28,886 --> 00:43:30,686
Speaker 6: thing that happened for me last year, the Charger season.

881
00:43:30,726 --> 00:43:33,886
Speaker 6: How the Chargers accommodated so I can grow as a

882
00:43:33,926 --> 00:43:36,126
Speaker 6: broadcaster still, you know, do whatever I had to do

883
00:43:36,206 --> 00:43:38,286
Speaker 6: with my friends at that I moved on Amazon, but

884
00:43:38,406 --> 00:43:40,166
Speaker 6: still complete coman Chargers.

885
00:43:40,166 --> 00:43:42,286
Speaker 4: So again back to the work in Mexicano, you know, like, hey,

886
00:43:42,286 --> 00:43:46,366
Speaker 4: we'll find a way to do it. Yeah, and we'll

887
00:43:46,406 --> 00:43:47,126
Speaker 4: make it work.

888
00:43:47,166 --> 00:43:49,526
Speaker 6: And we'll have that pyramid built by Tuesday. Baby, We're

889
00:43:49,566 --> 00:43:53,846
Speaker 6: ready to go. But I think it's just living it

890
00:43:53,926 --> 00:43:57,126
Speaker 6: like that through the Chargers, through the whole process of everybody.

891
00:43:56,726 --> 00:43:59,446
Speaker 4: In the NFL coming together. That was my favorite thing

892
00:43:59,446 --> 00:44:00,046
Speaker 4: from last.

893
00:43:59,926 --> 00:44:02,686

912
00:45:10,766 --> 00:45:12,766
Speaker 3: And that's how I've always felt when I talked to

913
00:45:12,806 --> 00:45:16,246
Speaker 3: other Latinos like him, who are really making a difference

914
00:45:16,566 --> 00:45:20,486
Speaker 3: in the broadcasting industry and really being a role model

915
00:45:20,926 --> 00:45:22,966
Speaker 3: for a lot of people, including ourselves.

916
00:45:23,446 --> 00:45:25,606
Speaker 2: It brings us yeah, exactly.

917
00:45:25,846 --> 00:45:28,366
Speaker 3: So this guests us to eat boonto where we put

918
00:45:28,366 --> 00:45:33,446
Speaker 3: a little bow on the podcast and what really surprised

919
00:45:33,566 --> 00:45:35,846
Speaker 3: us or really got us to jump out of our

920
00:45:35,886 --> 00:45:38,926
Speaker 3: seats during this first week of the preseason. For me,

921
00:45:39,086 --> 00:45:42,326
Speaker 3: my Bunto has to beat DeMar Hamlin. Seeing him out

922
00:45:42,326 --> 00:45:47,166
Speaker 3: there running around making tackles. I thought there was going

923
00:45:47,206 --> 00:45:49,726
Speaker 3: to be a time where we didn't know whether he

924
00:45:49,806 --> 00:45:52,246
Speaker 3: was going to be able to walk again, and to

925
00:45:52,326 --> 00:45:56,086
Speaker 3: see that was so inspiring, so cool, And we were

926
00:45:56,126 --> 00:46:01,766
Speaker 3: on the twenty four to seven update shift to see

927
00:46:01,806 --> 00:46:05,766
Speaker 3: how he was progressing and doing and to see where

928
00:46:05,926 --> 00:46:08,366
Speaker 3: he is from what had happened in Cincinnati.

929
00:46:08,726 --> 00:46:10,686
Speaker 2: To me, that was the best.

930
00:46:10,766 --> 00:46:11,686
Speaker 4: So that's my.

931
00:46:12,046 --> 00:46:15,566
Speaker 3: Bunto tomorrow, Hamlin being beneath us, welcome back, my friend.

932
00:46:15,726 --> 00:46:17,806
Speaker 1: No. I love that. I just kept thinking like sort

933
00:46:17,846 --> 00:46:22,726
Speaker 1: of watching especially on Instagram and social media, like posting,

934
00:46:22,726 --> 00:46:25,406
Speaker 1: like I imagine the the mental space you have to be

935
00:46:25,526 --> 00:46:28,086
Speaker 1: in to understand why the fans are cheering for you

936
00:46:28,166 --> 00:46:30,686
Speaker 1: and the trauma that you went through, but also locking

937
00:46:30,806 --> 00:46:34,646
Speaker 1: in to football activity. Like that's I'm so proud of

938
00:46:34,686 --> 00:46:36,406
Speaker 1: him and like excited for what's to come in the

939
00:46:36,446 --> 00:46:38,846
Speaker 1: season ahead, and more so just excited that he gets

940
00:46:38,886 --> 00:46:41,046
Speaker 1: the opportunity to play the game he loves. So that's

941
00:46:41,046 --> 00:46:44,726
Speaker 1: a great it's a great pick for me. My favorite

942
00:46:44,766 --> 00:46:48,886
Speaker 1: moment of the preseason didn't happen on the field technically.

943
00:46:48,886 --> 00:46:51,126
Speaker 1: It happened on the sidelines. And it was at that

944
00:46:52,286 --> 00:46:57,166
Speaker 1: Niners Raiders game in Las Vegas where Sydney Warner, who

945
00:46:57,286 --> 00:47:03,206
Speaker 1: is Fred Warner's wife, wore this amazing epic T shirt

946
00:47:03,286 --> 00:47:07,166
Speaker 1: that said Forida and it was a photo of Fred

947
00:47:07,566 --> 00:47:11,806
Speaker 1: holding up Isado steak. And I was there for that

948
00:47:11,846 --> 00:47:14,326
Speaker 1: game last year and that in Mexico, and I was like,

949
00:47:14,686 --> 00:47:16,846
Speaker 1: you better. You know she's Latina. She's actually have to

950
00:47:16,926 --> 00:47:21,246
Speaker 1: min again, okay, period, So it's like a Latino household already.

951
00:47:21,966 --> 00:47:22,926
Speaker 1: Right the moment I.

952
00:47:22,926 --> 00:47:25,286
Speaker 8: Met her, I loved her instantly, But I love that,

953
00:47:25,366 --> 00:47:29,086
Speaker 8: like that's what she chose for like the first moment,

954
00:47:29,286 --> 00:47:31,606
Speaker 8: you know, on the sideline supporting Fred, who has been

955
00:47:31,646 --> 00:47:36,126
Speaker 8: so huge, especially showing that like why depth of representation

956
00:47:36,246 --> 00:47:37,406
Speaker 8: within the Latino community.

957
00:47:37,406 --> 00:47:38,966
Speaker 1: And I was like, Sydney, you get a girl. You

958
00:47:39,046 --> 00:47:42,446
Speaker 1: understood the assignment wrapping it out there, and the two

959
00:47:42,486 --> 00:47:44,886
Speaker 1: of them have told me directly that they really are

960
00:47:44,966 --> 00:47:50,246
Speaker 1: leaning in more so in representing it outwardly aside from

961
00:47:50,406 --> 00:47:52,406
Speaker 1: how they lived their daily lives, that they are part

962
00:47:52,406 --> 00:47:55,086
Speaker 1: of the community and they really love the Latino fans too,

963
00:47:55,126 --> 00:47:58,206
Speaker 1: So that was my favorite presment so far. It's gonna

964
00:47:58,246 --> 00:47:59,446
Speaker 1: be really cute. We hope to have them on the

965
00:47:59,486 --> 00:48:04,046
Speaker 1: pop soon because I really want to go too, and Sydney.

966
00:48:04,046 --> 00:48:06,406
Speaker 1: It's going to be great. But that's my ipunto. We

967
00:48:06,446 --> 00:48:08,366
Speaker 1: have so much more. I'll probably you know, I'll pick

968
00:48:08,406 --> 00:48:09,966
Speaker 1: more that have to do with the field once we

969
00:48:10,006 --> 00:48:12,886
Speaker 1: get into the regular season. For now, I'm going to

970
00:48:13,006 --> 00:48:15,526
Speaker 1: enjoy the little moment of even if it was from

971
00:48:15,526 --> 00:48:17,686
Speaker 1: the sidelines. But we have a lot more to get

972
00:48:17,726 --> 00:48:21,006
Speaker 1: into in the coming weeks as these rosters start to

973
00:48:21,046 --> 00:48:24,006
Speaker 1: get cut and slimmed, we'll dive into more and what

974
00:48:24,046 --> 00:48:27,326
Speaker 1: we see on Hard Knocks two with the ever elusive Jets,

975
00:48:27,326 --> 00:48:29,366
Speaker 1: they're being mysterious even though all eyes are on them

976
00:48:29,446 --> 00:48:31,886
Speaker 1: at the moment. So this will be great. Will I
