1
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 1: For his first season. What have you seen from him

2
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:10,119
Speaker 1: though this week? UM, I mean he's I mean, he's

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 1: a good player. Uh, you know, and I think week

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: one there's always a lot of unknowns. You know, there's

5
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: not a lot of film on on this team this

6
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 1: year and the other preseason. I mean, we can obviously

7
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: watch them from the years past, and we're going to

8
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 1: do that and how they played us in um, you know,

9
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 1: in sixteen and last year, and you know, we can

10
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: watch all the film, but at the end of the day,

11
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: you know, if we go out there, you know, we

12
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: could see something completely different. So I think that's just

13
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: kind of comes with the you know, the task of

14
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 1: playing in week one. You never know. You just have

15
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: to adjust on the fly. And I think we'll be

16
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: ready for that because of the first time to the

17
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: first time play six. It's how important is it for

18
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: you to start off real fast because you know what

19
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: your stadmin is gonna be at the best. That's always, um,

20
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: something that we that we stress every single week. And

21
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: I think you know, obviously this week and uh, you know,

22
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: the level of excitement that guys are gonna have, the

23
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 1: you know, the intensity that's going to be out there

24
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: and you know week one, Um, you know, starting fast,

25
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: it is definitely a huge huge factor for us and

26
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 1: one of our keys that you know, we're gonna stress

27
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: throughout the week and um you know we know as

28
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: an offense, you know, or as a team, you know,

29
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 1: the fast that we start, you know, we can put

30
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: ourselves in a better position. Did you happen to see

31
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: Tom versus Time that came out today? If you didn't,

32
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: I did not. He revealed that he wants to play

33
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: only forty five. Is that surprised you? No, it does

34
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: not not, because he's the ultimate competitive ever. He loves

35
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: this game. He loves competing. Um, you know, he loves playing.

36
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 1: He loves playing a game. You know, as long as

37
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: he's gonna be able to play and do it at

38
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: a high level, I'm sure he's gonna do it. He

39
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: really means a play like forty five. Ye as Tom

40
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: watching it? Sure when in my free time I'll maybe

41
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: try to find a couple of minutes here to watch it.

42
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: That makes exciting that meaningful fall is back. But how

43
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: much more special is it that you get to open

44
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: the season in front of a home crowd. Oh, it's

45
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: awesome anytime we get to play in front of the

46
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: home crowd. Uh, they're I mean they're such good fans

47
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: and that you know, their excitement and the you know

48
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: how loud they get more more more year. Um, you

49
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,079

50
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: definitely a factor in the game. Um. You know, so

51
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: we're really excited to have a home game and the

52
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: home opener. Do you still get jitters butterflies? Of course

53
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,440
