00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,160

00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: like just be there. And I was like, oh, okay, cool.

44
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: So it was definitely like New Girl at School vibes

45
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 1: where I was like like a week before yeah, and

46
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: I was like I'm a little nervous, but like whatever.

47
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 1: And then I was like, how can I do something

48
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: a little different? So I'm like, I'm not getting a ring.

49
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: Everyone else is getting their ring. What if I just

50
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: put like a ring pop in my purse, just if

51
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 1: if the moment strikes and I take it out. And

52
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: there were some great reactions. The boys loved it. Um,

53
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: a lot of people loved it. So yeah, I think

54
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: it was a successful night. It was awesome. It was

55
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: so cool to see, you know, people like Robert Woods

56
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: was there, got to get his ring. Von Miller like

57
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 1: got up on the DJ table and was like, j

00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: outfit so good. Everyone looks so good. Everyone was amazing style. Yeah,

59
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: it was awesome. Are you pissed it all? A mere

60
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: few months before? If you had taken that job, you

61
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: would have a ring. I'm extra pist because you know, well,

00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 1: a year ago, this offer was presented to me and

65
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: I said no, because you know, some things we're in

Speaker 1: in piece of split ends. Um. But I was like, oh,

68
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: just like you know what, timing isn't right. I'm just

69
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: not ready for this, And sitting at that ring ceremony,

70
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,760

78
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: but let me tell you some thing today. I'm I'm

79
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: a little pissed. I'm sorry to like literally take such

80
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: a hard left turn, but it needs to be talked about.

81
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: And I want you to sit here and talk with

82
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: me because we're ladies, and we're ladies who are pissed

83
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: today because we all I literally woke up to a

84
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: thousand text messages on my phone just with like the

85
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 1: words six games. Deshaun Watson is getting suspended for six games.

86
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: I think we all pretty much thought it was going

87
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: to be at least a year. Like, I don't know

88
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 1: how we got to this place of six games in

89
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: this number. Oh, I'm just like so exhausted, dude. I

90
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,359
Speaker 1: want to play a clip that literally makes me so angry.

91
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: This is a video of Deshaun Watson showing up to

92
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: Brown's training camp. I just want you guys to listen

93
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: to Cleveland's reaction to him showing up. I love you. Wow,

94
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: does it just scrinder? Like I literally have had my

95
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 1: jaw clenched all day? Yeah, it is. It's been a

96
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 1: you should be embarrassed dude, Like, oh it is. It

97
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: is completely frustrating as a woman, as a football fan,

98
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 1: as a human, as a human being, And it's like

99
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: hard for me to understand because my first gut reaction

100
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, this isn't from the NFL. This is

101
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: the NFL PA's judge that they so there still could

102
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: I'm not sure necessarily yes, So the NFL has three

103
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: days to decide if they're going to appeal this decision.

104
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 1: If they do appeal it, it'll basically be up to

105
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: Roger Goodell or whoever Roger Goodell appoints to decide. So

106
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: the NFL could end up doing what we all believe

107
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 1: is the right thing here and suspending him for a year.

108
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 1: But if they do, the Players Association is going to

109
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 1: fight it like crazy and it could get into It's

110
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: going to be a mess either way. And this has

111
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: been a mess the entire time, and as football fans,

112
00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: as women, it has been just incredibly disappointing. Our co worker,

113
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 1: you know what, You know, we were talking about how

114
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 1: much we love working for NFL network. I really really

115
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: just want to say how incredible, how proud I feel

116
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 1: for working for this network that they encourage us to

117
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: use our voices and speak up when things don't feel

118
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: right to us. And our coworker, you're old co worker,

119
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 1: Kyle Brant a Good Morning Football had some really smart

120
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: things to say this morning, and I would like to

121
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: play that clip if we can let it go. Frankly,

122
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: scept for me to see six games based on what

123
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: I've read, what I've experienced over all, this time six games,

124
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: not only six games, forty five million dollars signing bonus, untouched,

125
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 1: forty six million dollars salary for this year, untouched, not

126
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,680
Speaker 1: dinged at all. And I thought it was interesting. Our

127
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 1: reporter Judy Batista brought up earlier we're talking about different

128
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: comps and pressings and things like that, and she mentioned

129
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger who was suspending six games. And Roethlisberger had

130
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: a single accuser who accused him of doing something on

131
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: a single night, and it was six games. This is

132
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 1: thirty women, and I know that's not how many were

133
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: presented to the Arborer. I don't care. I'm talking about

134
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: reality here. Thirty women over several months. And for the

135
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 1: people who are speaking up for to Shaun or maybe

136
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: apologize for what is the take at this point, because

137
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: if anybody is still clinging to these wild, ludicrous conspiracy

138
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: theories about these thirty women, got together and decide, I

139
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: just don't buy it at all. Does it not say, well,

140
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: you read that The New York Times said he met

141
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: with sixty six women over seventeen months about being a

142
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: potential massus. As I said earlier, at best, something inappropriate,

143
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 1: At worst, something reprehensible. Wow, really well said. I texted

144
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: Kyle as soon as I watched that and I said,

145
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: thank you so much for speaking up on such a

146
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: large platform and saying the words that you did. It

147
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: meant a lot to a lot of people, including myself.

148
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: So Kyle again shout out to you are an incredib

149
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: amazing for me. But what I really wanted to touch on,

150
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: like what he said, like what is the take? What

151
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: is the take at this point is no angle? And

152
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: it goes to I think it is a you know,

153
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: Cleveland fans are desperate to win, and I think that

154
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: there unfortunately is a subset of men out there that

155
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: feel that this is just an excuse to get this

156
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,840
Speaker 1: you know amazing quote unquote you know on the field

157
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: quarterback to play their sport and play with it. And

158
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: it's it is so frustrating as a as a woman

159
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: to see that you can have thirty people come together.

160
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: They're always saying, be brave, speak up, be who you

161
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: need to be. But at the end of the day,

162
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: it doesn't really really matter. And I was very interested

163
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: to be to be frank here here I am working

164
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: for the Rams. They are sort of making me an

165
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: extension of the Rams. I am talent, I you're representing

166
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: the team, right. So I was very kind of concerned

167
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: when I when I got up this morning and just

168
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: sort of how am I going to handle today and

169
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: what am I going to be you know, allowed to

170
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: talk about. And I've been very reassured. Erica, you say

171
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: what you need to say and how you feel, and

172
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: we support you. And I just feel so grateful to

173
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 1: be working for an organization that was very much like Erica,

174
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: you say what you need to say. But I just

175
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: think of people here we are at training camp or

176
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: sitting the fields behind us, and I think about the

177
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: people that are going out and capturing content today when

178
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: they woke up, when you know they're working for the team,

179
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: they knew this was coming, but with all of this

180
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 1: going down, and then it's only six games and you're

181
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: you're there, that's your job. What are you supposed to do?

182
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 1: Just put that behind you? And I just I feel

183
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 1: for those people that have bills to pay, that have

184
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: to do their jobs that are there. But then I

185
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: feel more sorry and just hurt for victims all over. Dude.

186
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 1: Then that's what I kind of wanted to talk about.

187
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: Like I was watching that video of these like people

188
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,719
Speaker 1: in the crowd cheering, and I'm sure it wasn't just man,

189
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: it was you know, freaking judge that made this decision

190
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: as a woman like you, so frustrating. Um, I was

191
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: just thinking of like if I were at that, I

192
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: love the Browns, right where's your team? Team? I can't

193
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 1: imagine sitting in that stand. I'm a survivor of sexual assault.

194
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 1: I can't imagine sitting in the stand and hearing people

195
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: cheer for him right that. I am heartbroken to think

196
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: of anybody the statistics of women being sexually assaulted is disgusting.

197
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: There were people in that crowd that have had to

198
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: deal with things, I guarantee you that, and they have

199
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: to deal with all of these people now cheering him on.

200
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: But back to what Kyle was saying, like, what is

201
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: the take if you are defending Deshaun Watson at this point?

202
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 1: I know what the take is. Football is more important

203
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 1: than being a human being at this point. If you are,

204
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: if you are cheering for deshaunts, I'm sorry it is

205
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 1: this going to piss off a lot of people. If

206
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: you're cheering for Deshaun Watson this year and you don't

207
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 1: care then you have no life. Yeah, all you care

208
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: about is football, and football is a beautiful thing. Don't

209
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: get me wrong. I literally work for the league. I

210
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: love football so much, and I've fallen in love with

211
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 1: it recently. So it's not like it's something that I've

212
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: just like can't get right up with and like had

213
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: in my life, and like, no, I am actively choosing

214
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: as an adult to be a fan of football. I

215
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,439
Speaker 1: love it. It brings me a ton of joy. But

216
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 1: if you are saying that that is more important than

217
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: being a decent human being, being somebody that respects women

218
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: like I just and that's kind of like I'm eccuing

219
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: what Kyle said because he couldn't have said it better.

220
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: I just I just don't understand what the take is

221
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: at this point. And this has been an absolute nightmare.

222
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: I was so excited for this season on so many levels.

223
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 1: We had we were gonna have Baker healthy, we were

224
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 1: gonna have this incredible team. That's another thing that bums

225
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: me out is like this team is so good, right,

226
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: You've got Miles, You've got Nick Chubb, You've got all

227
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: of these incredible players. Kevin Stefanski I loved. I got

228
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: to meet for the first time at the combine, and

229
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: I was so excited to meet him. Right, You've got

230
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 1: all of these pieces that are gonna and they are

231
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: all gonna suffer from this. Yeah, and it is. It

232
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: is super disappointing, and I can only hope that the

233
00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: NFL does does the right thing. And you know, to

234
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 1: those that have been sexually assaulted, to those that haven't

235
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 1: but that feel, you know, just human beings, like I've

236
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 1: my message out there and it's just like I want

237
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: people to feel heard. And it just sucks when we're like, say,

238
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: you know, be brave, say your truth. You know you're

239
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: going to get this support, and then you just get

240
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: slapped across the face because it doesn't matter. And it

241
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: makes me stick to my stomach. Yeah. Well, okay, so

242
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,679
Speaker 1: this decision isn't like completely final. We're going to wait

243
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: and see if the NFL appeals. We obviously hope that

244
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: they do. I think that it's really important to have

245
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 1: your voices heard, whether you are a athlete, you are

246
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: a football player, you're Kyle Brandt, you're somebody that literally

247
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: just has a Twitter handle, it's really important to talk

248
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: about how upsetting this is and how important it is

249
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: that you know, things change and that we get better

250
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: and grow because it's like so much from this year.

251
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: I keep on asking myself like I'm sorry, what year

252
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: is it? Oh my god, have we not like evolved

253
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: and like progressed like also and and talk about a

254
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: really you know that's totally inappropriate for me to take

255
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 1: away left more turn than then this conversation. Oh boy,

256
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 1: here we go. So last night, I'm in the hotel

257
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: and I see a commercial for Dawn, like dish soap. Yeah,

258
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 1: and it's a squeegee so you can just leave it

259
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: face down, so you know how soap At the end

260
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 1: you have to flip it over and kind of balance it.

261
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: And it's a squeegee that you just pick it up

262
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,199
Speaker 1: and it's already upside down. And I'm like, it took

263
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 1: till twenty twenty two for someone to invent this? What

264
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: year is this? And that's how that's a matrix situation.

265
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 1: I know this is not trying to joke about, but

266
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: like also right, things that are going on right, Like

267
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: I cannot believe it, and I am so many manner

268
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: in my dams being like can we get married so

269
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:43,680
Speaker 1: I can't have a green card and just moved to Canada,

270
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 1: Like we don't even have to talk. Yeah, that sounds great.

271
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: You should. You should open like you know, I would

272
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: love a green car. Sorry jet, Oh my god, Brad Farm,

273
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry that you had to come on the

274
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: pot and talk about this. Oh no, I I'm glad

275
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 1: to be able to talk about it. And I feel

276
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: very fortunate in it that we get this platform to

277
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: be able to talk about it. And I think that

278
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 1: it's important for people like us, for Kyle Brands, for

279
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: people that actually not putting that our opinions are anywhere

280
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: above anyone else's. But when we have the ability to

281
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: reach out to more people like I want the takeaway

282
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,959
Speaker 1: to be like we need to keep speaking up and

283
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: and just hope that one day, yeah, something will change. Um, well,

284
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: ladies and men, all of you guys, we we love you,

289
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: let's talk about the squeege. So it's actually already it's

290
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: already upside down. So you know, when you get to

Speaker 1: Just spent a little bit of the summer and uh

302
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 1: off the coast of British Columbia. Oh, BC's my favorite.

303
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 1: So it's not the city that I'm from, but uh,

306
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 1: like I call it baseball spring training. Yeah, you know what,

307
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: not not emotional in terms of wins and losses yet,

308
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: So it's kind of fun. It's fun. It's chill um.

309
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: Congratulations you got a ring last week? Right? That was

310
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: the that was the party? Are you aware on the finger?

311
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 1: Kind of guy or are you like up on the

312
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: mantel kind of guy. That thing is so large. I

313
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: don't I think five pounds. Yeah, I don't know if

314
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: it's five pounds, but yeah, it's just one of those

315
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: things I don't think you could wear in public. Think.

316
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: I think you gotta pull it out every once in

317
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: a while, like you go to somebody's wedding or you know,

318
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: just casually have it on your hand. It will be

319
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 1: I think it'll have to evolve organically. Where do we

320
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: wear the ring? But it's not on an airplane. Not

321
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: on an airplane now, because you have to like put it.

322
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 1: Everybody then would know. It would be just no, when

323
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: you sit on airplane, everybody would know what is that?

324
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: Let's yeah, I'm not to talk to the neighbor. I

325
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 1: never mind, and now would be an automatic conversation. You're right,

326
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 1: I'm like headphones on, maybe even like an eyepatch. Yes,

327
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 1: do not communicate to me please. Um okay, So I

328
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: really want to ask you about the draft video that

329
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: happened because it absolutely exploded. I'm sure you're tired of

330
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: talking about it, but did you think they didn't have

331
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: me in it? It would not have exploded. That's not true.

332
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: I'm sure you're an excellent actor. Did you so, Josh

333
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 1: Holloway played you right? Did you have any kind of

334
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: input in the casting? Oh? It was. It was great.

335
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 1: And it started off I can say that you'd send

336
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: an email and it was like okay, so and so

337
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: is gonna play me. I'm like, okay, that's cool. Then

338
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 1: it was like okay, can't do it. So and so,

339
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: oh yeah that's but then it got to a point

340
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 1: where it was like, wait a minute, I've never heard

341
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: it waited no. So that's when my wife Kara would

342
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 1: come in and go, no, you really want this guy.

343
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,959
Speaker 1: So she was because I'm not in tune. So the

344
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: people I was relating to, they were like their old

345
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 1: school can you can you? Can you tell us who

346
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 1: you wanted to play? Well, the first name, the first

347
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: name that came across was Matthew McConaughey. So that's how

348
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: I was. No. So I went to my teenage daughter,

349
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 1: so probably six days out of the week. I'm not

350
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 1: cool at all. So I was like, hey, look, looks

351
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: who's gonna play your dad. Then it was like, oh,

352
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: then guess what she does? Probably takes a screenshot and

353
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: sends it talks it to her friends, and so that's

354
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 1: then I was cool. So that was but I had

355
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 1: I had I had knew Josh from two things. I

356
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: knew him from a lost and then he was this

357
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: villain on on Yellowstone all the way. I'm kind of

358
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 1: he was a villain. I'm kind of I guess I'm

359
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: I'm a Dutton fan, so he was anti Duck. I

360
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,160
Speaker 1: love that. Have you thought about growing your hair out

361
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: to match his? Not to look that would be he

362
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: probably pulls it off better all the way. I went

363
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 1: through a stage probably even when I've been at GM

364
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 1: and I was in the early forties where I had

365
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:43,400
Speaker 1: longer hair, so that that seems more like, yeah, fifties,

366
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 1: doesn't Okay, I feel like you guys. First off, it's

367
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,719
Speaker 1: gonna be so hard to top that video because it

368
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 1: was so good. You can't top that. But don't you

369
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: just go if you were out there. We need a

370
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 1: part two, and he needs to be in it because

371
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: people are going to look back at this video and

372
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: be like, Okay, I want to be in the next one.

373
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 1: How did he come together? When did you first find

374
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 1: out about this? I think I'm sure there was a brainstorm,

375
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: so but our chief marketing officer officer catch, she's the

376
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 1: one that was, Okay, this is what we're gonna do.

377
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:13,679
Speaker 1: This is this was her vision, and I'm sure her

378
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,360
Speaker 1: team's a vision. So I'm not going to give her

379
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 1: just all the credit. She could tell us who But

380
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 1: so she's the one that thought that, Okay, based on

381
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 1: everything that's occurred, right, our brand, you know, our locale,

382
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,440
Speaker 1: this would be a way to somewhat make a splash,

383
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 1: you know, continue evolving our brand, keeping it cool, keeping

384
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 1: it keeping it very cool in a non football right.

385
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 1: We didn't have to win a game for that, although

386
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 1: I don't know. I always what if we hadn't won

387
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? We're still going to hit send on

388
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: that one. Oh, that is a good question, I would hope.

389
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: So it's still be very fun. Um. Okay, So this Friday,

390
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 1: there is a big flag football game that's happening behind

391
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,920
Speaker 1: us that I am actually going to be playing in.

392
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: I don't know yet. I don't even know who's team

393
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 1: I'm on, but I'm either on Aaron's team or Jalen's team.

394
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: So I want to ask you a couple of mete

395
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: those teams comment and then we're gonna decide the Fifth Amendment. Please, no,

396
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 1: let me just ask you a question. Okay, you're the

397
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: boss here. I want to know who whose team should

398
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 1: I be fighting to be on between the two of them? Okay,

399
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: so who do you think would be the better coach?

400
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: The better coach? So let me ask you this, what

401
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,679
Speaker 1: style of coach do you want? Do you want to

402
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: be or do you want more of a stoic I

403
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: want to bud. I want to Bud. Want something that's

404
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: gonna be nice me because I'm not gonna get no,

405
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,919
Speaker 1: I might even get hurt. So I think has a

406
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 1: chance to be a little more loving. Okay, okay, who

407
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 1: would you say he's gonna pull you? Uh, Jalen's gonna

408
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 1: push you? So okay, well that also sounds cool. Um,

409
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 1: who do you think would throw the better after party

410
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 1: after the win that? Orfore, who's throwing the best celebration?

411
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: I would say this before I would have I would

412
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,959
Speaker 1: have normally it's it's might be a tie. Now I'm

413
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 1: gonna give Aaron's wife, Erica credit. Before Erica, it's definitely Jalen.

414
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 1: But Eric coming in, she's bringing out a little more

415
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: and so it's a tie. Right now. Okay, but I

416
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 1: think what I'm hearing is you're leaning towards I think

417
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: it's I think it's one you could say that's even okay.

418
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: Who do you think is gonna have the better music?

419
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 1: Who's gonna have the better locker room vibe? Man, that's

420
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 1: a that's almost a plead ignorance better locker room? Yeah,

421
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: who's gonna be you know? Positive? I think that you

422
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: said Jalen's gonna be intense. He's gonna be like, I

423
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 1: don't know if there's in the locker room, it's intense.

424
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: So right now again, yeah, you're going to win the game. Yeah,

425
00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,919
Speaker 1: there's no loss is not an option. Losing is not

426
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 1: an option. It's not This isn't about fun with those two.

427
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: I think you although they're probably gonna totally go in

428
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,199
Speaker 1: verse one eighty and it'll they'll both have a blast.

429
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: I think that you did a really good job. I

430
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 1: think that it's very even. You didn't play you didn't

431
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,719
Speaker 1: play favorites here and I'm going to be happy with

432
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: And they're bigger, stronger, meaner than me. So let's talk

433
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 1: about this season. You guys have a super Bowl ring

434
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 1: now going into this season. How do you how do

435
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: you feel as there sometimes they're gonna be a little

436
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 1: bit of a hangover. What do you are you feeling

437
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: really positive about this year? It's one hell of a

438
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 1: hangover if that's what it is. Last it's but you know,

439
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: I think you think of it every day. Okay, we're

440
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: a super Bowl chance, but the close as soon as

441
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 1: you come out here, yeah, as soon as you probably

442
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: get closer to playing the Buffalo Bills. I mean, I

443
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: don't think winning a super Bowl in twenty twenty one

444
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,360
Speaker 1: is going to affect that game. Yeah, so you bet

445
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: we better be dialed in no time for a hangover.

446
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,640
Speaker 1: You guys had a target on your back already, right, Yes,

447
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 1: So if there's any hangover remedies, we need to get

448
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 1: on that possible. But I do think just getting back

449
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 1: football right, getting back to getting back to the nuts

450
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 1: and bolts, people trying to get better, people trying to

451
00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,920
Speaker 1: win jobs, keep jobs, all of those things. Yeah, that's

452
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 1: just a natural way of coming back to earth. I'm

453
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:12,679
Speaker 1: gonna show you one more thing and I'm gonna let

454
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 1: you go. Okay, this past weekend, I was at a wedding. Okay,

455
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,760

Speaker 1: Feel great? Yeah, it's good to be back out here.

475
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 1: You know, it was a very very short offseason for US.

476
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 1: I think they said it was the shortest offseason in

477
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 1: NFL history. Um, and longest season for US too with

478
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: with the extra game, right Super Bowl. So, um, you know,

479
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 1: it's just great to be back out here running around

480
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,199
Speaker 1: and you know, just being around these guys and stuff,

481
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 1: coaches and stuff. Uh, you know, best coaching staff, best

482
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 1: players in the world. So it's it's definitely, it's definitely

483
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: great to be back out here. Everyone famously says at

484
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 1: this point in the season, like, I'm in the best

485
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 1: shape of my life going into training camp. How do

486
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,919
Speaker 1: you feel physically right now? Uh? Yeah, I would probably

487
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: agree with that. Um, you know we we uh, definitely

488
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,959
Speaker 1: pick up training and the summer's I'm you know, just

489
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,679
Speaker 1: getting ready for out here in training camp, so you

490
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: know the last month, you know, everyone's been grinding and

491
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: run the league getting ready for training camp. So I

492
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 1: would probably agree with that. Um, you just got a

493
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: ring last week. Yeah, how was that celebration ceremony? Did

494
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: you feel a little rough for a few days after?

495
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 1: What was it? Yeah? It was it was great. Um.

496
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: I actually didn't get to go to the ring ceremony,

497
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 1: I know. Yeah, my one of my dogs had an

498
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 1: emergency room. No, you got to drop everything for the dogs. Yeah,

499
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: rings it all first. Yeah, so we had to rush

500
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 1: her in. She uh, she had to get emergency surgery.

501
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,719
Speaker 1: She's all good, Okay, she's good. So I just I

502
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 1: got my ring. Actually a few days ago they brought

503
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:45,719
Speaker 1: they brought it. They brought it to the hotel. So

504
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: oh they didn't roll out of like a red carpet

505
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: or anything for you. But it's it's beautiful. It's uh

506
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 1: you know, they say it's like it has the most

507
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: most diamonds. It was. It was heavy, Yeah, it was

508
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: definitely heavy. Are you a kind of like what where

509
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: would you wear that ring too? In real life? Well?

510
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 1: I know that you got engaged, which we will talk

511
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: about in a second. Congratulations. Would you wear that on

512
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: your wedding day? Probably not, honestly, that's such a flex though.

513
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 1: Let me take off this ring you put on another. Honestly,

514
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: I don't know any occasion where where I can throw

515
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 1: that thing off. I don't know. Less was just here

516
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,360
Speaker 1: and he was talking about how if there's one place

517
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: he's not going to wear it is on an airplane

518
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: because just too many people would ask questions. Yeah, so

519
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,120
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even wear it in public? No, really, Um, Okay,

520
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 1: Well let's talk about the other ring. You got engaged

521
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 1: right after you won the super Bowl, which, like I

522
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 1: gotta give a shout out to like literally anybody in

523
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: your life that is going to propose, because they have

524
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 1: to deal with that knowing that you did that after

525
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 1: the super Bowl, They're like, how am I possibly going

526
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,920
Speaker 1: to talk this? But yeah, what what was your did

527
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 1: you first off, would you have still done it if

528
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:56,479
Speaker 1: you lost? No? Did you have a backup plan? Well?

529
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 1: The the it was the original plan. I was actually

530
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,639
Speaker 1: gonna propose. We had a trip to Hawaii. We go

531
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: to Hawaii every off season. It's like our second home. So, um,

532
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: I was originally going to propose out there, and so

533
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: I was having um my guy who was doing the ring,

534
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: the custom ring, Um, he said, it wouldn't have been.

535
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: It wouldn't it's not ready. Um and so I just like,

536
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 1: you know, I was like, after we beat the Niners

537
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: NFC Championship, I you know, just the thought came in

538
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,400
Speaker 1: my dad. I was like, you know what, like what

539
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,239
Speaker 1: if what if I just do it? Like after we

540
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 1: were super Like I might never get this opportunity ever again. Um,

541
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,719
Speaker 1: So I like asked him. I was like I hit

542
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 1: him up and I was like, hey, any chance, like

543
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: you get it done, like I'll pay whatever you whatever

544
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: to rush it whatever. And he's like, I don't know.

545
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 1: So it was funny story. Funny story actually, so he actually, um,

546
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,160
Speaker 1: I think it was the Saturday when we were heading

547
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 1: to the hotel. Saturday evening we go to our team

548
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: hotel whatever state of the night, um over an Englewood

549
00:27:55,800 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 1: or actually uh Manhattan Beach um. And so he said

550
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,120
Speaker 1: he was delivering it Saturday and we were leaving at

551
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,360
Speaker 1: think like five o'clock, six o'clock to go down there

552
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,959
Speaker 1: for meetings whatever for the night, and um, it actually

553
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: didn't get delivered until like thirty minutes before I had

554
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 1: to go stop it. Like I had a whole backup

555
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 1: plan too, Like I was going to head to the

556
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: hotel and then like my family was going to come in.

557
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 1: I was gonna tell my family, um to come get it,

558
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 1: and like I had a shipped too, obviously my neighbor's

559
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 1: house too because obviously my my fiance at the time

560
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: she could she couldn't see. Yeah, I had a whole plan.

561
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 1: But this Super Bowl win that much more impressive that

562
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,439
Speaker 1: you were juggling all of this other drama. Were you

563
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: thinking about it at all during the game, Like you're

564
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: literally in the biggest moment of your life and then

565
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 1: you're about to have another biggest moment of your life

566
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 1: immediately after, right, Yeah, you know, to be honest, like

567
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: kind of dealing with all that and like juggling all

568
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: that like around the Super Bowl, like you kind of

569
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: like eased my mind like around the game, if that

570
00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: makes anything. Yeah, this is way less obviously, It's like

571
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: the biggest game of your life, like possibly every that

572
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: you could play in. So like, you know, I just

573
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 1: you know, I tend to like you know, overthink and

574
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: like overprepare. Like sometimes that can be you know, worse. Yeah,

575
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 1: Like it was kind of nice. You know, I took

576
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: care of business for the game, and like, you know,

577
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: I was prepared. We did all the work for the

578
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 1: last two weeks and then like kind of just getting

579
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 1: my mind off of the game a little bit, like

580
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 1: in a few days leading up to it. It It was

581
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 1: it was kind of nice. What an insane flex that

582
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 1: your distraction, what was keeping you grounded about your engagement

583
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 1: was winning a super Bowl. That's amazing. Okay, one more

584
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 1: question before I let you go, I'm playing in the

585
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: flag football game that's happening on Friday. I'm very concerned

586
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: about it, but I'm asking I don't I don't know

587
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: whose team I'm on yet. It's between I think Aaron

588
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 1: is one of the captains and Jalen is one of

589
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 1: the captains. So I want to ask you a couple

590
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: of questions, because you spend so much time with these guys.

591
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: If I have a choice, I want to know who's

592
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 1: going to be best suited for my set of skills.

593
00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: So I'll ask you a couple of questions. Okay, gotcha?

594
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 1: Who would have better snacks in the locker room? Oh?

595
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: J Jaylen ad he's got to keep it tight. Oh

596
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: that's he is. Yeah, yeah, Jayalen will have good snacks

597
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 1: in there. Okay, that's a good point. I love that.

598
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: Who's gonna have the better music? I gotta go with

599
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 1: Jayalen on that too. D DV you know dvs stick

600
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 1: together that same music. Um, who's gonna have the better

601
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: celebration afterwards? Who's throwing the better party? Oh that's a

602
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 1: tough one. I would go with either one there, Yeah,

603
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 1: I'm safe. Probably both going to have great after parties. Okay,

604
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: who would be the better coach? Who would be a

605
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: better coach? Yeah, just you know style one would be

606
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: like pressure, you know, like he he probably wants like
