Yeah. 15 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 2: I think obviously just trying to build a good plan, 16 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 2: and we had really good conversations throughout the off season 17 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 2: about what I need to get better at and how 18 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 2: I can help the team. So I really just want 19 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 2: to apply to the games and feel like we made 20 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 2: a lot of progress, you know, throughout OTA's fall camp 21 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 2: and the games and stuff. But you know, now, this 22 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 2: is what we've been working for, So just trying to 23 00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 2: apply to the games. 24 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: Do you agree with his assessment with the areas where 25 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: you've made strides and and I guess if not, where 26 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 1: do you feel like you've grown the most from a 27 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:06,479 Speaker 1: year ago? 28 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 2: Yeah? 29 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:07,119 Speaker 1: I think. 30 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: I mean we haven't played yet, so it's just trying 31 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 2: to realize that you're just working, trying to stay consistent. 32 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 2: For me, that's the biggest thing. Just stay in my 33 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: routine and let the results take care of themselves. I 34 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 2: think that's the important part for me. I've always kind 35 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,919 Speaker 2: of been that type of person and really just focus 36 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: on the process and let everything else handle itself. 37 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 3: A teammate, a lot of roster maneuvers last week, especially 38 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 3: at the quarterback position, at different guys backing you up, 39 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 3: added Matt Corrall. How has it been having him yeah 40 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 3: on the team. 41 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think I played against him in college and 42 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: he's a great quarterback and obviously was with the Panthers 43 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 2: and stuff, so we have some good knowledge not only 44 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: from there but with coach Kiffin in college as well. 45 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think we have a good room and 46 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 2: really just trying to get ready to you know, go 47 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 2: beat the Eagles and focus on, you know, how can 48 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: we help each other and be the best we can 49 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,040 Speaker 2: be and bring the team together, you know, get the 50 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: defense ready to play, whether that's on scalt team, and 51 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 2: then obviously you know the defense is helping us too, 52 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: so we all know we got to do really just 53 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 2: trying to sharpen everything and make sure we're ready to go. 54 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: But those twenty four to forty eight hours seem kind 55 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: of nuts from the outside looking in, just the all 56 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: the moves in the quarterback room with corral coming in, 57 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: Bailey and Malik out for a little bit, then they're 58 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: on the practice squad. I mean, have you had a 59 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: chance to obviously you have. What have you said to 60 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: guys like Bailey after what seemed like a rocky twenty 61 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: four to forty eight hours. 62 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's just part of the business, and 63 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 2: it's tough, you know. I think it's really hard for 64 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 2: the coaches and gms around the league. You have to 65 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 2: make a lot of hard decisions. And it just proves 66 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 2: to me that the NFL's a business and you got 67 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 2: to be ready every day. Just got to work hard 68 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: and just focus on what you can control, right, that's 69 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 2: all you can do. 70 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: So I think I know the answer, and based on 71 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: what you just said, focus on what you can control. 72 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: Do you have any roster input? 73 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,839 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm the quarterback, so I mean I don't 74 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 2: really focus on that. I just try to I'm supposed 75 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:01,799 Speaker 2: to hand it off, hand it off. I'm supposed to 76 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 2: throw it. 77 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: Throw it? Would you want me? Because and I know 78 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: like it, I get it. It's it's you know, it's 79 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: Bills in charge of it. And you know Macro has input. 80 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: But like a lot of quarterbacks in the league do 81 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: have have input on roster decisions, and you know they'll 82 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: talk with personnel people about who they want on the 83 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: roster and who might fit. Is that is that something 84 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:20,839 Speaker 1: you would want? 85 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 2: Really, just focus on me and what I can do better. 86 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 2: You have no control over that stuff. So always, like 87 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 2: I said, just stick to my routine. And at the 88 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 2: end of the day, you have a routine in season. Right, 89 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 2: We're in in season now, so Monday, I'm doing this, Whoday, 90 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 2: I'm doing that Wednesday, So just trying to get back 91 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: into that focus on the controllabulls and really just focus 92 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 2: on your attitude and your effort and that's all the 93 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 2: things you can control. 94 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: Really, now that you're in season preparing for the Eagles, 95 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 3: what Is it like preparing for a team that has 96 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 3: at least a projected pass rush like that? 97 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 2: Yeah? 98 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 3: For you, are you psyching yourself up a different way? 99 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: I mean, not even judging by the state of the 100 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 3: health of the offensive line, but for you, is it 101 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 3: a little bit different when you know you're going up 102 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 3: against pressure like that? 103 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:07,839 Speaker 1: Yeah? 104 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 2: I think as you guys saw all last year in 105 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 2: training camp and all that, they've done a great job. 106 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 2: They got great players up there. Obviously have drafted really 107 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 2: well at that position. They take a lot of pride 108 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: into that, and yeah, they have the best efensive line 109 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 2: in the NFL. So at the end of the day, 110 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 2: we just have to go out there and compete and 111 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 2: try and control we can control, and understand that we're 112 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:29,679 Speaker 2: going against a bunch of beasts. 113 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: Juju played against him in the Super Bowl and he 114 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 1: had a good game. 115 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. 116 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: Has he given any insights? Have you leaned on him 117 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: for any insight? Not just from like what you may 118 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: be picking up up on the tape or you know, 119 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: what you see on film or what the coaches are 120 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: telling you, but for somebody who was out there playing 121 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: against it beat them. Have you leaned on him at 122 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: all for any advice or insight on that defense. 123 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think anytime he's on film, just asking 124 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 2: him what he saw, you know, what was the play 125 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: or are they telling you to do here? And and 126 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 2: all that stuff helps. It doesn't have to be him necessarily. 127 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 2: It can be another veteran, but Juju has a great 128 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 2: wealth of knowledge. Obviously, like you said, played against him 129 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 2: and stuff, but it's a new year and just trying 130 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 2: to take in what he says. You know, as a 131 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 2: veteran player, I always appreciate that. 132 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 3: As a quarterback, we know from our side, there's been 133 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 3: a lot of talk about the Juju's health, health of 134 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 3: his knee and his history with that. How do you 135 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 3: feel like the offense is in terms of where they're 136 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 3: at they are overall? There's been so many questions at 137 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 3: the offensive line. How you're feeling going into Week one? 138 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, you know, injuries are part of it. 139 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 2: I do think, you know, not to talk about everybody else, 140 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 2: but he has practice every day, Juju, and he's out 141 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: there grinding and a lot of the guys are so 142 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 2: feel like being healthy is is a challenge in the NFL, 143 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 2: you know, especially when we practice really hard, which is 144 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: great and it gets us ready for the game. So 145 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,119 Speaker 2: you just have to use it to your advantage. Knowing 146 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 2: that we practice hard, we're gonna go out there and 147 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 2: feel confident and all that. So definitely part of the game. 148 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 2: You see it, you know around the league and other 149 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 2: teams too. It's just trying to work through and get 150 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 2: as many people back as possible. But I do have 151 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 2: a lot of confidence just from working with the different 152 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 2: groups of people where it's the wide receivers or some 153 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 2: you know, the young offensive lineman. They've done a great job. 154 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 2: So just instilling confidence in them and letting them know 155 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 2: that they can do it. 156 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: You know, we're talking to Mac Jones, Patriots quarterback here 157 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: on Jones and mego with rkan on w E E I. 158 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: You mentioned health. There was some speculation last week that 159 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 1: maybe you weren't completely healthy coming out of the Green 160 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: Bay game, the preseason game, the preseason game. Is that 161 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: is that accurate? 162 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 2: Oh no, I've never I've never heard that one. 163 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: But you're good. So you're one hundred Yeah, okay, cool, 164 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 1: And you would have been and you would have been 165 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: good to go in that that Tennessee game, the third 166 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: preseason game. If the coaches wanted you to. Okay, so 167 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: just so so just clearing that up. When it comes 168 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: to and again Bill mentioned your your fitness and your 169 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,239 Speaker 1: health and your routine. Is there anything you changed, uh 170 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: in that regard compared to last year or is it 171 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: just more growth with what you've done in the past. 172 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think definitely growth. Just learning from the order guys, 173 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 2: you know Slater, people like that, just trying to add 174 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: to your repertoire of things you can do to recover. 175 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 2: And really it comes down they're just working hard. You 176 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 2: can't really cheat it or take a magical pill or 177 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 2: anything like. 178 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: You got to go. 179 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 2: Out there and work hard and just be consistent with it. 180 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 2: Just because the season's here. You can't stop working hard. 181 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 2: So I got to continue that. Hopefully it rubs off 182 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: on some of the other teammates that have and just 183 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 2: keep keep working and keep staying on schedule. 184 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 3: We were talking to Slater a couple of minutes ago 185 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 3: before you came in here, and we were talking to 186 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 3: him about that game that you guys saw against Tampa 187 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 3: Bay when Tom Brady came back here, the last time 188 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 3: that Brady was in Gellette. Yeah, what do you remember 189 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 3: from going into that game? About how you were feeling 190 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 3: as a rookie knowing that he was going to be 191 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 3: on the other side, and having a pretty good idea 192 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 3: of what he meant to and what he continues to 193 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 3: mean to people in this region. 194 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. Oh, yeah, he's definitely a legend and I have 195 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 2: all the respect for him. He's a great guy. He's 196 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 2: actually helped me a lot, all right, and just talking 197 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: to him or whatever, and he's been a great mentor 198 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: and stuff. But yeah, he's a great player. I love 199 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: watching his film. He pops up on game tape obviously 200 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 2: from last year and everything too, so he's always on 201 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 2: the film doing the right thing. So just trying to, 202 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 2: you know, learn from him, and he's been awesome. 203 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 3: You said he's a mentor, are you guys? We saw 204 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 3: the photo from over the summer of you and Devin 205 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 3: and Tom, and have you guys been able to build 206 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 3: a relationship where you can reach out to him about 207 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 3: Patriots specific questions? 208 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you know, whether it was Hoyer that 209 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 2: was here, whoever. You know, you meet a lot of 210 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 2: people that have known him and everything and the stories 211 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 2: and everything too, so that always helps just being able 212 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 2: to learn from that. And he's always on the film, 213 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 2: Like I said, so just watching the footwork, the timing, 214 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 2: his operation of everything. So he's definitely the greatest to 215 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 2: do it, and that's why you want to watch him 216 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 2: and learn. 217 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure they asked you about this obviously, what had 218 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: happened in twenty twenty one. I know you spoke about 219 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: Tom a few weeks ago, maybe a month ago. You 220 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: know now that he's he's called it quits we think 221 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: and retired. What was it like going against him in 222 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: that setting though? In twenty twenty one, you're four games 223 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: into your rookie year, and how does that prepare you 224 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: for the opener with him back in the building? Yeah? 225 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 2: I think I've always said, like, you're not really going 226 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 2: against the other quarterback. It's kind of hard to say that, right, 227 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,839 Speaker 2: You're actually going against the other defense. So at the 228 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 2: end of the day, we're never on the field at 229 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: the same time. But you have to respect he's on 230 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 2: the other side of the ball and really just play 231 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 2: your game and take the emotion out of it and 232 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 2: just go out there and you know, try and just 233 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 2: do your thing. 234 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: You have a birthday, Yeah, I do have a birthday. 235 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 3: It's a big one. How are you feeling about turning 236 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 3: twenty five and going into this week one appreciate of 237 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 3: the actual season. 238 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I feel kind of old. I guess 239 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 2: twenty five. It's crazy. 240 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: Wait is twenty Is that late twenties? Is twenty five late? 241 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: That's mid twenties twenty mid twenties age, so we can't 242 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: say late twenties, but yeah, mid mid twenties. 243 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 2: Now, yeah, mid, I'd say mid. 244 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 1: What we were talking about before Mego was sniffed this out. 245 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: Good job by Mego. I was not fully prepared for 246 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: this obviously, But what uh what stands out good or 247 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: bad from I don't know childhood birthdays? Are there any? 248 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: Are there any gifts that you got that you didn't like? 249 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: Were there any great gifts that you were seeing? Like 250 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: what jumps out from some childhood birthdays? 251 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 2: I mean, nothing crazy. We usually just would go outside 252 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 2: and play play sports, you know, That's what I wanted 253 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 2: to do. So we'd always have birthday parties that were fun. 254 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 2: And that's probably just in the yard throwing the ball around, 255 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 2: so pretty fun. 256 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 3: You never did one of those birthdays where you go 257 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 3: to like a pottery house, like it's two borings. 258 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, Like a vase that was the I was 259 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: the kid who had the Uh. I told mego this 260 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: before I had the roller ring party when it was 261 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: like oh yeah, and then I had it again the 262 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: next year when it was no longer cool. Yeah. That's 263 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: a bad move, right, bad ball. Yeah, big, big mistake. 264 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna blame my parents on that one, but big mistake.
