As we approached the NFL hundred season, we're 6 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: going to take a look back with some NFL legends 7 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: at some of their greatest NFL moments in memories we 8 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: have with us today to NFL Legends, chiefs guard and 9 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: legend Will Shields, who I just saw the stat Also, 10 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: Will started two hundred and twenty three consecutive games in 11 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: the trenches. I was lucky, good for good for fifth 12 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 1: all time. Man, that's that's crazy in the trenches. And 13 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: we also have Mark Brunel. Let's get this. Let me 14 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: make sure you guys hear me. He collected an NFL 15 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: check for nineties seasons. Hey, guys, as we get into this, man, 16 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: when we think about the nostalgia, think about the league 17 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: and me growing up and Monday night football Howard Coastal 18 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: and now the league a hundred seasons. As we look 19 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: at look back at the hundred years of pro football, 20 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: every legend has played a role in one way or 21 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: another and creating the history of this game. Which great 22 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: magical moment in NFL history are you most proud to 23 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: be a part of? For me, specifically to be a 24 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: part of it would be at the beginning of the 25 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars franchise we started out in Being a part 26 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: of that was pretty special. In fact, we're about ready 27 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: to celebrate our season. So to be there at the 28 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: beginning and having gone through, you know, the early years, 29 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: we had some early success and some some some good 30 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: teams and some great players I was fortunate to play 31 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: with and to have been a part of that was 32 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: pretty special. I think anytime you're at the beginning of 33 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: something that is ongoing and and still thriving and doing well, 34 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: that it's still embraced by the city that where it started, 35 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: it's pretty cool. I was really proud to be a 36 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 1: part of that. What about you will I would be 37 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: the rookie year. My rookie year was, I guess because 38 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: that was the furthest we ever went as a team, 39 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: so we end up playing in the championship game. But 40 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: also about having guys around me that showed me how 41 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: it was supposed to be done. I had the luck 42 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: of being there with Joe Montana, Marcus Allen, Derrick, Thomas, 43 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: Neil Smith. Those guys were all on one team, a 44 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: del Carter, which was both sides of the fence of 45 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: the show. Unbelievable athlete, but the loose cannon on the 46 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: other side, just so talented, you know. And also to 47 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: see you know, Kevin Ross and those kinds of guys 48 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: that were around at that point. They had such a 49 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: strong following legends group that came back to us. So 50 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: Bobby Bell and all those guys every Thursday night would 51 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: bring in beer and pizza and we would sit and 52 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: they would sit and talk to you about, you know, 53 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: what they did and their job and you know, like 54 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: you know, one work for GM now and the other 55 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: one does this. And Willie Lanier is a you know, 56 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: he basically is a financial advisor and he works with 57 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: Warren Buffett and all these different things. And so for 58 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: us on Thursday to just sit there and listen to 59 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: them talk about all the things they did to get 60 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: here and to get to that point, it lets you 61 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: know that you know, there was a lineage there, there 62 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: was a history there, and you were a part of 63 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: something that was special. How did you see that impact 64 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: in your teammates? You know it gave them the feel 65 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: of understanding that you know you're only one piece of 66 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: the cog for one, But there is a life after 67 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: football when we think about all the men who played 68 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: this game before, after our time. I have two unique 69 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: questions for you guys. Who's the one guy mark you 70 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: wish you had as a teammate. Boy, that's a tough one. 71 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 1: Wish I had as a teammate. I'm gonna tell you 72 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: a name. The problem is, if he was my teammate, 73 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 1: I'd never saw the field. Um Will was talking about 74 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. I got to play against a 75 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: lot of really good quarterbacks, play with some great quarterbacks, 76 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: Drew Brees, Brett Farve, one of my favorites, Joe Montana. 77 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: We played the Kansas City Chiefs in the preseason one 78 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: time and we were at Arrowhead and it was when 79 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 1: Joe was there and this this is my rook my 80 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: first year, my second year was Joe there? Nine four 81 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: I think it was it was either And after the game, 82 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: Joe Montana wouldn't talked to Mike Holmgren, who used to 83 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: coach him in San Francisco and thens it was pretty 84 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: cool because I got about five yards from Joe Montana 85 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: and it was like the coolest thing. I thought, you 86 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: know what, I arrived, I'm in the NFL, But I 87 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: got five yards. I didn't get to meet him, and 88 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: I'm not kidding. I wish you didn't. He was talking 89 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: to some people and you can't just going mean. He 90 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 1: was just after I know it was a preseason game, 91 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: but I've been trying to meet Joe Montana for the 92 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: last twenty five years or whatever it is. I still 93 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: haven't bet, but I would love to. I grew up 94 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: in California and I um, I would love to have 95 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: had an opportunity to be around him four super Bowls. 96 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: So for me, he's he's uh, that would that would 97 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: be pretty cool to have ended an opportunity. Well enjoy 98 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: You'll know you're listening to you will hit this podcast. 99 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: We will make this happen, Joe, I'll fly to you.

Me 101 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: and my son set The other day, I watched the 102 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: special and it would have to be Reggie White. It 103 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: was really interesting because of my rookie year, like the 104 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: third or fourth game, we are playing Reggie White on 105 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: the Monday night, and I'm you know, We're in the 106 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: locker room and people are coming in and one of 107 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: our center, our center goes crazy and guys are playing 108 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: dominoes and all this other stuff, and and I was like, oh, 109 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 1: they're playing bones. And then I'm just sitting at the table. 110 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: He comes in and kicks everything over. What are you 111 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: guys doing? They're over there preparing to kill us. Do 112 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 1: you know who's over there? The minute of minister defense. 113 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: He's gonna kill us. He's gonna kill us. You gotta 114 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: getting ready for this game. And so me and me 115 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: and Ricky are out there playing and hitting. Ricky was like, 116 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: oh man, he's coming over here. He's gonna go against you. 117 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: And I'm going, all right, I get a chance to 118 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 1: go against the minute this This is gonna be cool. 119 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: And he goes outside. He goes over over Ricky, which 120 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: is my tackle. He rushes Ricky and humps him and 121 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: throws him. He does the hunt move and throws him. 122 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: And so then oh, Ricky is easily three thirty easily 123 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: and oh yeah, he just he threw him so easily. 124 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: And then I end up catching him and going out 125 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: and uh. He walks over to Ricky and he goes, 126 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: do you know Jesus Christ as your Lord to say, 127 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: Ricky go yes, sir, and he goes back over. But 128 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: the reason I think it would have been cool to 129 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: have him as a teammate just to watch how he 130 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: worked and how he did things. But also I got 131 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: invited to my first Pro Bowl and I wasn't twenty 132 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: five yet, so I couldn't rent a car, so I 133 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: couldn't rent a car over there, so I was stuck 134 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: at the hotel and him and his wife actually took 135 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: me out for pizza, you know. And I was actually 136 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: on the they have C side, he was on the 137 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: NFC side, but him just to go, hey, man, come on, 138 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: let's let me go get you something to eat and 139 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: sit down and talk to him. That was one of 140 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: the highlights. That was one of the things that you 141 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: sit down and go, you know, now you're included part 142 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: of this group and everything else, You're going, It's been 143 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: great to be a teammate. Yeah, my guy is running 144 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: a lot man, hands down, man, He's one of the 145 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: guys I reached out to as a rookie, just to 146 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: get advice, but the way he played the game. He 147 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: was that leader on that great San Francisco defense when 148 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: they were winning, and just the wisdom that he gave 149 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: me on and off the field. It was one of 150 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: those guys I would have loved to play with. All right, 151 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: let's let's flip it now, now, who do you? Who 152 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: are you thinking? God for that you didn't have to 153 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: play against the same person on the regular person to 154 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: pay a weekend a week out. That's actually I got 155 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: to be a teammate with Reggie. Reggie and Sarah took 156 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: me and my wife under their wing a rookie year 157 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: in Green Bay. Yep.

He was amazing. 173 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: And but you know a lot of times he was 174 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 1: just like a kid. Now, who's the guy? Is it? 175 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 1: Lawrence Tella? Who? Who didn't you want to be? Yeah? 176 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: I would never want to play LT. I think he's 177 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: the greatest ever. There's a there's a bunch of guys, 178 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: a lot of the guys from Lambert and guys from 179 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers and and uh um, the old school guys 180 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 1: like the real bad to the bone guys linebackers, safety's 181 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: defensive linemen. And you just said, well, you said it 182 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: would be the same person. Yeah, same person. So also currently, 183 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 1: John Randall was a guy that gave me fits, drove 184 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: me nuts. He was good. He could do everything from 185 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: the same stands. It drove me nuts because everyone else 186 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: I could. Did he talk the whole games? Yes, he 187 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: would never shut up. He would always go a million 188 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: miles an hour. And the thing is we used to 189 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: practice against him all the time too. So they had 190 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: the Cheese League back then where everybody would go to 191 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: Wisconsin and uh, river Fall, we're in river Falls and 192 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: all of that, and we just round robin and who 193 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: we'd go against. And so my first indoctrination was him, 194 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: Henry Thomas, uh Chris Dolman. And yeah, that was the 195 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: first line. And I'm sitting here as a rookie and 196 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: they're talking back and forth, and they're just jabbering back 197 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 1: and forth, making up words, doing all kinds of stuff. 198 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: And I'm sitting here thinking I'm smart. Oh, I'm gonna 199 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: take some of the words that they're using. And I 200 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: know they're using it for certain stunt calls and this, 201 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: that and the other man. And they started saying taco 202 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: this and burrito and this and this, and I go, 203 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: all right, man. So they said taco last time they 204 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: ran this t E stunt. I was like, all right, 205 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: so I know when they say taco, they're gonna run 206 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: a t E stunt again. They did the same thing, 207 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,079 Speaker 1: said taco. He went here. I turned my head in, 208 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: he went right by me, like nobody's business. So I 209 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, from that point, don't fall for the taco, man, 210 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: buy you a taco, but don't fall from exactly. And 211 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: he was the guy that basically could clown. He was 212 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: clowning me most of the time. And mind you remember 213 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: anything he said to you doing a game that is 214 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: just a million And so I sort of, after after 215 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: that first inciitive learning of how they do things there 216 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 1: in Minnesota, I sort of took a mentality that sort 217 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: of mimicked his, but it was a quiet version of it. 218 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: So before the pre game, he would come and stare 219 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: at you. Before the game, he would find out who 220 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 1: he was going against, and he's standing right across from you, 221 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: would stare you down, trying to intimidate you. And I 222 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: just looked at him and I just laughed. And so 223 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: then every game I go find the guy who was 224 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: going against and make sure I saw him and see 225 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 1: if he was ready as I was ready. And so 226 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 1: you just take little pieces of everybody's game and you 227 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: added to it. But I used to watch him. Man, 228 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: he come over there and be staring at you, and 229 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: then he started talking, Oh we ain't friends. Now we're 230 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: not friends. Will come here. I'm not I'm you're free, 231 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: and right I know you ain't my friend. You're beating 232 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: up on me right now, You're making me work. I 233 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: was like, this is not fun for me. Love this game. 234 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: But we we all love football and we've all watched 235 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: it as a kid, and now when we have kids. 236 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 1: What is your favorite moment in the hundred years of 237 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 1: pro football? And can you describe when and where you 238 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: were when you saw it? There's so many minds right away. 239 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: Which has to be my my favorite team growing up, 240 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins, and it has to be that Monday night 241 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 1: what the Dolphins and the Charges and I think the 242 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: charges wont and remember Kellen being carried off the field. 243 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: You know, I grew up in California and when I 244 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: was young, for um, I was a Chargers fan, and 245 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,719 Speaker 1: watching Danny Foul's play was was was pretty cool. I 246 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: remember a lot of those that that very game. But 247 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: in all honesty, I I grew up in a baseball family, 248 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: So if there was a sport that we were going 249 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: to watch, it was baseball. He was watching the l 250 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,599 Speaker 1: A Dodgers. My dad's a baseball guy. If there was 251 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: any football to be watched at all, I had to 252 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: kind of do it on my own when when there 253 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: wasn't a baseball I was in a baseball house, So 254 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: I missed a lot of you know. I mean, I 255 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: remember the Redskins being good, and I knew Dan Fouts 256 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: could could. It was amazing. I remember that, you know, 257 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: knowing about the Steelers and their defenses and their World championships, 258 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 1: but I really didn't get an opportunity to watch a 259 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: lot of it. Yeah, mind would be the Joe montown 260 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: a touchdown pass in the corner, just the catch and yeah, 261 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: and then overson Walls, Yeah, over Everson Walls in the corner, 262 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: and then you know, from that point, uh, watched a 263 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: lot of Jerry Rice watching him, you know, torch a 264 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: lot of people with that little lean of the head 265 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: and go inside while you looking at these fuel guys, 266 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: what's up? I'm a I'm a I'm a big guy, 267 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: I should say, how do we say this big guy 268 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: with a little man at heart. I'm a skill player 269 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: at heart trapped in the big man's body. So so 270 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: basically there's not a lot of things that a little 271 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: man can do that I can't do in all aspects 272 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: of life. So that's sort of how I sort of 273 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: see myself. So if somebody could do a dance move, 274 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: I could do that dance move somebody. They never really 275 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: saw you. We saw you saw the bigger image of exactly. 276 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: So anytime I'm off the field, I'm pretending I'm a 277 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: tight end or a fullback or whatever. We play pick 278 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: up games. I was never an offensive lineman, but you know, 279 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: I know my role, I know my side. So once 280 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: I got to do a regular game, it was always 281 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: at that point. That's great. Yeah, here's a question for 282 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: you guys, which all time great? Did you model your 283 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: game after? What was it you try to emulate? Well? Well, 284 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: for me, I was a guy that actually took from 285 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 1: all different kinds of players. So I would be basically 286 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: to a point to where I had. I call it 287 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: controlled violence. That's how I played control violence. So I 288 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: take my defensive, violent side and put it into a 289 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 1: controlled mentality and use it to manipulate others. I call 290 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: it negotiating space. So I would negotiate space to win. 291 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: You got to write a book about all this. Man 292 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: would have known. We got a little guy in a 293 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: big body control. Yeah, anything else we need to know him. 294 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: That's what I did, man, that's how I played the game. 295 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: And so you know, I'd watch like Ed two Tall 296 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: Jones and those guys, and and I'd be like, oh man, 297 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: he's doing this, this and this, and I mean, I'm 298 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: I'm a little kid at this point, and I ain't 299 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: actually getting a chance to play against him when I 300 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: was older and when I got in the league, and 301 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, yeah, he's doing this, he's doing that, 302 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: but I can block him because he's not doing this 303 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: with his foot or he's not doing that with his hand. 304 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: So I would take different pieces of a lot of guys, 305 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: different games and try to mold them into what I 306 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: thought would work. You know, if there was a guy 307 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: that I um I modeled my game after, and I 308 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: definitely watched him quite a bit, it would have been 309 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: Steve Young because by watching Steve I learned that you 310 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: didn't have to be six three six four. You could 311 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: be left handed, you could scramble around and still do well. 312 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: And that was my game, you know. And at a 313 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: time when we came up the quarterbacks, typically we're six 314 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: three six four pocket passer guys. I couldn't really move 315 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: around very much, you know, Marino, Jim Kelly, Um Troy Aikman, 316 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 1: guys that were just pocket passers, that's what everyone was 317 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: kind of looking for. But I'd watch Steve and I'd 318 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: be fascinating. I just loved watching you so efficient, accurate, 319 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: good athlete and made some big plays. And so if 320 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: he was on TV, or actually I could have some 321 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: tape that I could get of his, I would I 322 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: would watch him because that's that was who I was. 323 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: That's you know, I kind of up my game after him. Uh, 324 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 1: it's hands down. I wanted to be a complete cornerback 325 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: coming out of Southern University. Complete cornerback meaning being able 326 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: to cover and tackle. So I didn't find during that 327 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: time guys that were in the NFL. I didn't find 328 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: one guy that had that. So the physical guy. A 329 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: lot of people forget Ronnie a lot played cornerback initially 330 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: coming out of USC and his first few years in 331 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 1: San Francisco, so he was physical. So I wanted to 332 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: hit like Ronnie. But the guy that I modeled has 333 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: I played kind of bump and running college was Frank Minifield, 334 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: the five tin corner. I was kind of his height, bumping, 335 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: running the dog pound with the Cleveland Browns. So I 336 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: never forget in college guys. True story. My teammates laughed 337 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 1: me to scoring. I went, I had a shirt made 338 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: and I put on the back many lots, many lot 339 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 1: and literally when fans come and talk to me now 340 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: invariably somebody will say you are a complete corner. So 341 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 1: it just interested and that that success, that mindset man 342 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 1: not just be a cover guy, but to be able 343 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: to know you better know when you come in my area, 344 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: but I can also cover you. But it started with 345 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 1: Frank Manifield and Ronney Lot the NFL game being around 346 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: a hundred years. What do you love about the NFL game? 347 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: The NFL game personally, what it's done for me is 348 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 1: that it's given me an opportunity specifically to to find 349 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: my place, find my purpose, and find my people. Meaning 350 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: if I never played for the Jacksonville Jaguars, I certainly 351 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,959 Speaker 1: would have wouldn't have be living in Jacksonville. Uh. If 352 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: I didn't play for the Jacksonville Jaguars, I the best friends, 353 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: uh I've ever had, I wouldn't have them. They're they're 354 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: my people. Um, they are my brothers. Former teammates from 355 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 1: the Jags that have gone want to be will be 356 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: lifelong friends. Also coming to Jacksonville. You know, you don't 357 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: know what you know where you would end up if 358 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: you didn't have an opportunity to play in the NFL. 359 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: But I don't know if i'd be coaching high school 360 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: football and absolutely, you know, having a dream job. I'm 361 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: living where I get to live and I love everything 362 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: about it. I've got the best friends of the world 363 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: that were teammates, and it led me to a city 364 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 1: where I have an opportunity coach the next generation of 365 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: football players. It's been my life. It's it's been um, 366 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: it's just been amazing. I cherish the relationships, the memories, 367 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: the games, all of the game did for us. But 368 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: I even cherish it more now, eight years after I 369 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: got done playing. But it was because of that that 370 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 1: I'm I'm where I'm supposed to be and I'm doing 371 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: what I'm supposed to do with the people I'm supposed 372 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: to be doing it with. Well, I guess for me, 373 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: it was the chance for a life change, something that 374 00:19:56,040 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: I never knew you could accomplish, to change your demographic, 375 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: social standards, everything else for your family, from where you 376 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: are to where you are where you're going, a chance 377 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 1: for growth and understanding of how do you grow out 378 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: of this to the next level, to understand that there's 379 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 1: a bigger thing outside of my little piece of law 380 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 1: in America UM, and also to be able to give 381 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 1: back to that chance to prosper beyond um and then 382 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: on that a chance to give and then on top 383 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: of that was the beginning is the chance to compete. 384 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 1: My last question, I want you to put yourself in 385 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: the room when the league was founded, that Hupmobile showroom 386 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: with all the guys talking about this new league, and 387 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 1: you can tell them one thing about the NFL after 388 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: a hundred years that they never could imagine what would 389 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: that be? So I can see us right now in 390 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: that show room. Was that in Ohio? What was that 391 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: was k earlier? They could not imagine how big it 392 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: would be? No chance, in every way I mean it is, 393 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: it is. It's all consuming. As far as that's I 394 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: don't think that's the best way to put it. I 395 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: mean it's everywhere about life changing in all regards of 396 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: everyone that's touched the game. Because regardless if you work 397 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: with the league, for the league and by the league, 398 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: you're still have changed so many different dynamics of life 399 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 1: that you that they couldn't imagine that with the opportunities 400 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: that the game afforded countless players, twenty thousand former players. 401 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 1: And that's just the players. I'm just going to the 402 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: front office. I'm going, you know, their families that have 403 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: received new revenue off of that and everything else. I mean, 404 00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 1: it's just it's an unbelievable business. The uh, the happiness, 405 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 1: the excitement, the common fan getting an opportunity to feel 406 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: a part of something that he's really not a part of, 407 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: but he is. I mean, it's it's a I don't 408 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: think they could have ever envisioned how big it would be, 409 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: a big, how big of a party would be in 410 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: our society. Correct, That's that's what I'm thinking about, huge 411 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: and so many social things that were going on even 412 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: back then. You know, I played at Southern University, historical 413 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 1: Black College, and even see how African Americans playing the 414 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: game and how I had a had my defest coordinator 415 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,919 Speaker 1: in college. I never forget he said this. I always 416 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: wanted to know why was football so important in universities 417 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: and why there's so much money spent revenue generated, And 418 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: he said, your football program are the eyes by which 419 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: people see into your university. What I would say to 420 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 1: those founders is did you know at some point that 421 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: this game? Could you imagine that this game would be 422 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: the eyes by which people would see entire country. That's 423 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: how much this game has had an impact because even 424 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: when everything is going on to day, the social challenges, 425 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 1: what is the kneeling down, no matter what it is 426 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, no matter where people 427 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 1: are from, even if they are rooting for different teams, 428 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 1: it is the biggest group that comes together in a 429 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:29,679 Speaker 1: sports league on a Sunday, on Monday or Thursday, regardless 430 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: of socio economic status, regardless of race, and it's harm 431 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: in the end there and it's the it's the the 432 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: continual hope that we as athletes. We've had a chance 433 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 1: to be in the locker room with different people that 434 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: we would have never You're coming from Oklahoma, you you're 435 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: in the locker room with a Nebraska alignment that are 436 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: from different parts of the country that you eight man football. 437 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: You're in California and in Washington.
