Hey, 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:03.520 where are you taking this show today? Young man? Man? 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:06.200 I don't know wherever the wind blows. I had a 0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:10.760 question for Sir Douglas. We always have a little pregame meet, 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:14.560 and I said, and I just looked at him. I 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:19.800 got two questions. The first one was why are we 0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:24.640 not good? Why at this point in day? Why are 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:27.520 we not good today? Now? The first question was would 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:30.320 you like one of these cookies? No? Okay? And the 0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:34.000 next question full disclosure right. And the next question I 0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:41.240 asked was how many teams that above five hundred right 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:43.880 now that Philadelphia has played. We'll answer that right now. 0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:47.920 How many has Philadelphia played? Don't look it up right now? 0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:52.240 Top of here is three, four, five, one, two? How 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:54.400 many teams have they played? Right now? They are ten 0:04:54.480 --> 0:04:57.520 and one? Yeah, you can, you can guess. It's cool. 0:04:57.520 --> 0:05:01.120 I'm gonna go with one. Let's see, they played the Cowboys. 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:05.680 They were five hundred at the time. Chiefs were five 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:08.080 hundred at the time technically, but they beat the Chiefs 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:14.599 beating them right, yeah, that's true. Um, who else they played? Washington? 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:17.760 No Giants, No, we're gonna take a guess, or you 0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:22.120 want to look at your competing I'll go to just 0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:24.880 to be different from Channing. They beat one team. That's 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:31.440 the pain, Thank you, thank you, But well, okay, what's 0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:33.800 you kind of got it to? Uh? And I was 0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:36.320 listening to the guys, you know, in one of your 0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:40.119 local stations. I was I was saying, this is how 0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:44.960 you get momentum and you build it. That's what we 0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:47.880 did last year. We had a third place team, we 0:05:48.000 --> 0:05:54.600 got thirteen and three. We come into this year here, uh, suspension, injuries, 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:58.800 and have we been built to sustain that? And when 0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:03.640 I asked her Douglas the question, why why are we 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:06.719 not good right now? What was your answer, Sir Douglas, 0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:12.000 I said, we built this team on first round draft picks, 0:06:12.000 --> 0:06:15.880 on the offensive line and on Zeke Elliott. And when 0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:19.400 a couple of those pieces aren't there, it's tough to 0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:22.520 to do what you're built to do. And we haven't 0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:25.520 had Zeke or Tyring most of the time, and then 0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:28.960 when Tyring gets back, Zach Martin goes out, and then 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:31.880 when he throws Sean Lee in the mix. He was 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:34.520 a second round pick. I mean, a lot of our 0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:37.760 a lot of our investment isn't on the field right 0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:41.720 now now, And he went We went back to what 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:45.880 to the two thousand and ten draft? Was it all 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:48.680 the way back through the two thousand so? I think so. 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:53.560 And the thing about it is one Bury Church in 0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:57.760 a few of those other guys with that group that 0:06:57.920 --> 0:07:04.479 are not here either, right, we either have given away 0:07:07.240 --> 0:07:11.560 the core of our team or injury has gotten the 0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:13.960 core of our team. Go back to two When did 0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:16.160 Barry Church get here? Was it two thousand and ten 0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:19.640 or two thousand and nine? He was an undrafted free agent? 0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:22.800 Undrafted free agent, so he was he was a part 0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:27.040 of that core, believe it or not. JJ Wilcox twenty 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:30.440 five and under plays. You couldn't find a harder hitting, 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:35.440 roving type guy. He's gone. Brandon Carr, we got him 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:39.200 out of free agency. What about five years ago? You know, 0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:42.920 nobody liked him. He never covered good enough, even though 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:47.480 he always covered the best receiver on another team. I'm 0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:50.880 saying why are we not good right now? Today? They 0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:54.600 have drafted guys through and they have brought in free 0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:58.160 agents that have hit. Now we maybe was not at 0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:02.560 the time thrilled about these guys, are overly excited about 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:07.280 these guys. But now that we've gotten rid of Tyrell McClain, 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:12.120 gotten rid of the Church, let JJ Willcox go. Let 0:08:12.120 --> 0:08:15.440 Brandon car go. Let even more Claiborne go. That's six 0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:19.320 guys that are not on your defense right now. Now. 0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:22.880 You got Tyron has been hurt. You got Sean Lee 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:27.239 that's hurt right now, you got no Zeke. That's eight 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:32.640 players that starters that is no longer on your team. 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:38.040 Why are we not good right now? Starting with the 0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:40.240 especially on the defense. I think we've kind of been 0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:44.360 overlooking how bad they did in free agency this year. Um, 0:08:45.280 --> 0:08:48.000 the cart, the car how bad they didn't free agency 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:49.640 this year. They let all those guys go they got 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:53.679 they basically got nothing back. You know that Nolan Carroll 0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:57.320 didn't work out there is gone is gone. They signed 0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:01.280 that safety Uh he didn't make it out of camp. Um. 0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:03.160 I mean they just got They basically had nothing out 0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:06.199 of free agencies. That's really hurt them in the secondary, 0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:13.320 especially you know, even even if we had Zeke, we 0:09:13.320 --> 0:09:18.160 were we were always gonna be teetering on one or 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:22.000 two games. We we just wouldn't know, you know, we 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:25.120 just you know, even with Zeke, we was five and three, 0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:28.400 and one thing. One thing that I liked about having 0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:31.400 Zeke it assured us a beating the teams we're supposed 0:09:31.440 --> 0:09:34.040 to beat, But it was gonna be a dog fight 0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:40.520 against everybody else. And you know, I'm not an excuse guy, 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:43.200 but I'm saying to myself, I'm not an idiot either. 0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:46.600 You can't win with a secondary that we have now 0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:49.640 due to the matter of fact, no experience, and the 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:55.160 experience that we do have is struggling. So even if 0:09:55.160 --> 0:09:59.920 we had the fearsome Forsom up front, teams Willa Siby 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:02.160 to complete and throw passes on us. That's how you 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:05.920 get touchdowns. Yeah, it's so It's if I was looking 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:08.920 at how many big plays they've given up in the 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:11.719 last three games. It's kind of scary. Yeah, we're going 0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:15.719 to name them because I'm just saying the reality of it. 0:10:16.120 --> 0:10:19.920 And that's why I was selling Shannon doing training camp. 0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:22.480 I wish all these guys were healthy. I wish every 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:26.800 corner in safety was healthy because and if they could 0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:30.480 have came out of training camp and I'm I'm forget 0:10:30.520 --> 0:10:34.800 the glass half full, you know, half empty. I believe 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:38.080 that if these guys would have came out of training 0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:40.920 camp on their legs running, we would have been we'd 0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:43.080 have been a better secondary right now. Yeah, I just 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:46.000 gotta believe it. I can't believe that you drafted four 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:50.040 guys and none of them can't play right. You know, 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:53.400 so many big plays, but in the last three games 0:10:53.400 --> 0:10:55.800 they passed plays of at least twenty yards, they've given 0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:58.960 up thirteen. That includes four of at least thirty and 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:05.120 two forty yarders and maybe even worse. Kirk Cousins is 0:11:05.160 --> 0:11:08.160 third in the league with forty five completions of at 0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:11.400 least twenty yards and then the last game he had 0:11:12.160 --> 0:11:15.439 that they played that he had four completions twenty Amison 0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:18.439 crowder bro he was trying to find itself against us, 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.360 but he found himself against the Giants and he finally 0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:23.640 got an end zone. Yeah, he had a i think 0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:26.319 at twenty yarder and a forty yarder against us in 0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:28.200 the first game. So yeah, you want to know a 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:33.040 scary stat was that Wow, I was over here doing 0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:40.160 the last three games Atlanta, Philly and San Diego. First 0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:43.640 half Cowboys have been outscored twenty to sixteen. Been in 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:48.400 pretty much every game right second half. They've been outscored 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.800 seventy two to six in the second half of the 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:55.240 last three games. Yeah, it's ridiculous. How does that happen? 0:11:55.360 --> 0:12:00.960 Is that just getting exposed, Nate? Is that just that? Is? Uh? 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:04.400 That that is? That is guy's getting stressed? You know 0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:09.480 that is guys that lack of confidence. Are they trying 0:12:09.480 --> 0:12:11.680 to do too much? They start freak? I don't know. 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:13.840 You gotta you gotta ask the coaches or ask a 0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:16.839 player that I give you an honest opinion. You know 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:18.719 what saying? Man, I asked you about the scheme. I 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:22.280 ain't asking you what's your game plan? My question is simple, 0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:24.920 is right here this guy's trying to do too much? Yeah, 0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:26.719 and they have nine time I tend a player or 0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:36.720 be honest for that. I think that you need a spark. 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:40.280 It's always somebody got to spark you. And I'm hoping 0:12:40.360 --> 0:12:44.880 d Law can come up big. I'm hoping, uh uh. 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:47.200 And this is what I worried about Irving and Irving 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:49.920 then went to sleep on us again. You know that's 0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:51.679 what my asking us. Man, you're gonna go there, You're 0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:54.240 gonna you're gonna play pretty good. Yeah, yeah, I got it. 0:12:54.320 --> 0:12:57.160 You know, started out great. Yeah, and he's went to 0:12:57.160 --> 0:12:58.960 sleep on us. How many sacks did they have the 0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:03.360 last three games? Kirk none, zero, last game none. I 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:06.199 think one over the last three. One turnover in the 0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:09.599 last three. I mean, it's just I don't get you 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:11.920 just don't went dead man. You get to play footballs 0:13:12.040 --> 0:13:15.640 And people said, well they played better teams. But if 0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:18.559 you this is when you try to be the best 0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:20.839 when you play better teams. I mean, you may not 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:26.200 have uh as many as uh hits for losses in 0:13:26.240 --> 0:13:28.600 the back fo we try to have some, you know, 0:13:28.720 --> 0:13:30.600 y'all you ought to be able to you know, get 0:13:30.640 --> 0:13:35.440 you hitching has been playing, hitching, Hitch has been hitch 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:38.719 has been been thumping. You know, Uh, come on in 0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:40.640 and make if you get a chance, man surely like 0:13:40.679 --> 0:13:44.720 to have you. Uh, Okay, do what you gotta do 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:49.360 and come on back. Yeah, I'm gonna tell you something, man, 0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:53.760 I'm not gonna blame no injuries. I don't I don't 0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:55.920 believe in that, right, there. Every team have injuries. I'm 0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:59.199 not gonna believe it, believe that we just that bad 0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:02.199 a team. I gotta believe that our confidence is waning. 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:06.480 And uh and and it just I always look for 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:13.200 what makes sense, and we've lost a lot of players. 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:16.720 Ain't time about just injury. The injuries is a part 0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:20.720 of them. We lost some key components that we didn't value. 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:24.320 That's that's us as fans. And let it just let 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:28.480 just management. Now it was us as fans. Nobody loved 0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:33.320 on Tyrrell mcclan. Nobody just was overjawed with Church when 0:14:33.400 --> 0:14:37.480 nobody overjawed spelling with more Clayborne. Oh he'll be hurt again, 0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:41.480 you know, but nobody you know JJ Willcocks, Oh my god, 0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:44.200 if he can just keep his head up. He takes 0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:47.040 bad angles. But when he played twenty five of less plays, 0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:51.600 he was a force. So now we don't. We have 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:56.000 these young guys that's trying to learn and and and 0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:58.160 and it is what it is. It's the pain of growing. 0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:02.080 It's the pain of growing. Maybe let all those guys go. 0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:10.520 They you know, I heard uh uh guy Espn used 0:15:10.520 --> 0:15:13.560 to be the coach for the Eagles. Herm at words, 0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:17.800 he said something that made so much sense. Kurt. He said, uh, 0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:24.280 he said, I understand this. When you sign a quarterback 0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:28.120 for one hundred a million more dollars, you better make 0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:31.600 sure he can tout your team because if he can't 0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:36.600 touch your team, did you better start two years before 0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:39.480 you give him a hundred million dollars because you will 0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:43.400 have to go exclusively almost to the draft. If you don't, 0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:48.560 you're gonna just pick up garbage. And what is the 0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:52.200 Dallas Cowboys They gave brom All that Money's what you're 0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:57.000 saying Joe Flacco? They won a super Bowl. They thought 0:15:57.080 --> 0:16:00.240 Joe Flacco was that quarterback. What has the Ravens done 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:03.080 since they gave him one hundred million dollars. It's only 0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:06.000 five quarterbacks in this league. And I keep telling people, 0:16:06.040 --> 0:16:09.080 it's only five quarterbacks in this league that can say, hey, man, 0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:11.640 jump on my back and I'll let y'all off when 0:16:11.640 --> 0:16:15.560 we get in the playoffs. Yeah, maybe five. The rest 0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:19.680 of them are just guys, you know. And that's and 0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:24.640 that's what the red Skins are scared of with Kirk Cousins. 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:27.560 Even though Kirk Cousins is lighting the world on fire, 0:16:29.040 --> 0:16:34.480 they know that once they say five years, one hundred 0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:39.640 and twenty five seventy five thousand guaranteed they go free 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:43.800 agency as they know it and we know it now. 0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:47.840 You better be drafting right on time every year. And 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:52.400 when we paid Tony Romo, it freed up some cap money. 0:16:52.560 --> 0:16:58.960 But did we didn't see this injury coming? Yea real anthony. 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:04.360 You're still there, brother, No I am. What's up? Man? 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:10.000 What's up? Fellas going on? Y'all right? All right, um, 0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:13.159 let's do it quick. Um from the TV shows to 0:17:13.280 --> 0:17:16.160 all of your shows. These guys shows to break everybody. 0:17:16.200 --> 0:17:18.800 Every i's talking about what they think. It's a problem. Man. 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:23.280 It's simple when you when you use the principle of 0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:26.919 my offense is gonna be my best defense, my offense 0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:28.480 is gonna be so good it's gonna keep my defense 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:30.680 off the fieldings and that when key cards or your 0:17:30.680 --> 0:17:33.920 offense go down, you're gonna have a major problem. It's 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:36.879 just like a leader in the classroom, the top student 0:17:36.960 --> 0:17:40.160 or something. The morale kind of goes down and things 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:42.520 like that. And that's all because second half begin to 0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:44.399 blow it out of games. Of course, we don't have 0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:47.239 the elite pass Russia, and that's that's that safety though, 0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:49.160 the two things I knew on the defense that we needed. 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:52.320 If we could have gotten strength that safety, you know, 0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:55.040 a better safety, Pro Bowl or whatever, and elite pass rusher, 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:57.120 I think we would make the team complete with Zeke 0:17:57.200 --> 0:17:59.720 or whoever. But when you use that principle and you 0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:02.080 use key guys, I think the chief entries during the season. 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:05.159 After you lose guys like ze you got problems. And 0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:07.280 that's all that happened. So guys just got to do more. 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:09.120 They got to step up, and they gotta do more 0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:12.359 than Thank you man, Thanks Anthony. That was great man. 0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:15.320 And you know what, I I don't disagree with Anthony. 0:18:15.440 --> 0:18:19.600 But at the same time, Alfred Morris is not trash. 0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:22.679 Rod Smith is not trash. If these guys weren't gaining 0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:25.160 any yards, I get it, I get being blown out 0:18:25.160 --> 0:18:27.960 in the second half. But these guys, these guys are 0:18:28.000 --> 0:18:30.840 solid running backs. Are they Zeke? No, they're not Zeke, 0:18:31.000 --> 0:18:35.159 but they're solid. You shouldn't be this big of a 0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:39.159 dropper you've got You've got decent players. It's not like you. 0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:42.080 You know, the receivers aren't really stepping up, but they're 0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:45.120 still not trash. They're not dropping every single ball. They're 0:18:45.160 --> 0:18:47.280 dropping balls at key moments of the game. I don't 0:18:47.760 --> 0:18:51.920 understand how one guy on offense, one guy on defense, 0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:54.560 and then it's like everybody forgets how to play football. 0:18:54.960 --> 0:19:00.080 Get I'm gonna tell you something, man, Yeah, you know, 0:18:59.760 --> 0:19:04.040 and I'm with you one hundred percent, Shannon. The only other, 0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:12.440 only other deal is it's guys lost confidence. I mean 0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:16.520 you know that quit are they quit? Nah? You don't 0:19:16.560 --> 0:19:19.400 play the same way. You're discouraged. You know, you don't 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:22.440 have the same amount of effort. You know, you out there, 0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:24.320 you're trying to do what you think is bad. So 0:19:24.480 --> 0:19:26.639 you think you're doing something specially you look back in 0:19:26.680 --> 0:19:30.760 a Wow, that's me. It takes a special type guy 0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:33.879 or a special group of guys. But like he said, 0:19:34.760 --> 0:19:39.280 like my last caller said, leader, well that leader got 0:19:39.280 --> 0:19:43.080 to emerge. You know, you got you gotta be to 0:19:43.080 --> 0:19:45.440 the point where you even jealous that somebody would mention 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:48.240 Sean Lee. You know you know what I'm showing Lee. 0:19:49.040 --> 0:19:52.280 You know I'm gonna take over. I'm I'm gonna make 0:19:52.280 --> 0:19:54.560 a play within the scheme. I'm gonna make a play. 0:19:55.040 --> 0:19:57.480 If it comes to me today, I got it. You know, 0:19:57.520 --> 0:20:00.800 if a Blues ball up, I got it. If interception 0:20:00.840 --> 0:20:02.720 that I got it, you know it, don't take but 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:06.960 one or two plays, you know, when that opportunity arises 0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:09.120 and you take advantage of you. Yeah, and I'll tell 0:20:09.119 --> 0:20:12.399 you what, be very careful this is. This is for 0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:17.639 the fans. Be very careful using the word quit, because 0:20:17.680 --> 0:20:20.760 these guys have a lot of pride and they they 0:20:20.800 --> 0:20:24.320 take their job very seriously. And there's a difference between 0:20:24.480 --> 0:20:27.800 quit and like Nate said, getting discouraged. Yea quit is 0:20:27.840 --> 0:20:30.919 a very That's probably one of the worst words you 0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:33.359 can use to a pro athlete is using the word quit. 0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:35.160 So when you're talking to your buddies at the bar 0:20:35.280 --> 0:20:39.200 and when you're talking you know football, just know that 0:20:39.640 --> 0:20:41.439 you know, and this may come back and bite me 0:20:41.480 --> 0:20:43.760 in the ass one day, but you know, just know 0:20:43.920 --> 0:20:47.760 that there's a big difference in quit. These guys take 0:20:47.800 --> 0:20:49.680 pride in what they do and no matter how bad 0:20:49.720 --> 0:20:54.080 they get, beat the efforts. Usually usually there let me 0:20:54.160 --> 0:20:56.320 sities right here. You know, I tell people all the time, 0:20:57.200 --> 0:20:59.840 you've pumped up, you're doing all the best work you can. 0:21:01.240 --> 0:21:03.399 You know, you know you, oh man, it is you 0:21:03.480 --> 0:21:06.480 another guy, your your your your paper, stack up your 0:21:06.480 --> 0:21:08.920 paper stack up all of a sudden. Other guy getting 0:21:09.000 --> 0:21:13.000 raised for like three or four days a monitude. You 0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:16.280 you just you're doing your job, but there ain't nothing special. 0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:21.200 Ain't the paper ain't stacking up no more? Have you quit? Right? 0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:25.600 Have you quit? You at work? Discouraged? Yeah? Doing your job, 0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:31.040 you know, yeah, but as you're going over the top again. 0:21:31.240 --> 0:21:34.399 And that's a great analogy. Yeah, it's it's great. You know. 0:21:34.880 --> 0:21:38.640 One thing I told my wife one time. She came 0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:40.880 with all this wild stuff out of nowhere one time 0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:44.639 and I started asking these same questions, Well, what about 0:21:44.840 --> 0:21:47.280 I remember when you said this to me and what 0:21:47.400 --> 0:21:51.639 happened there? Did you quit? No? I ain't quit what 0:21:51.920 --> 0:21:55.639 you just discouraged? Right? Yeah, you just want fitting it 0:21:55.640 --> 0:21:59.760 for a period of time. Yeah, I say, uh, what 0:22:00.000 --> 0:22:02.399 if that was your brother? Better? Still, what if that 0:22:02.520 --> 0:22:05.399 was your husband? Which is me that they're saying that about, 0:22:06.080 --> 0:22:08.680 how would you feel you would do? Like Coldb's the 0:22:08.720 --> 0:22:13.160 wife and defended right? You see what I'm saying. So, uh, 0:22:13.840 --> 0:22:18.639 they're gonna stay human. They just it's just that in 0:22:18.720 --> 0:22:21.840 society we've made them super human, right, you know, but 0:22:21.880 --> 0:22:24.080 they're still a human. We just made them super human 0:22:24.440 --> 0:22:28.880 and don't believe me. Like I said, I every day, man, 0:22:29.119 --> 0:22:31.360 Like I meet with Douglas every day for at least 0:22:31.480 --> 0:22:34.080 at least two minutes, just going in, sit out and 0:22:34.200 --> 0:22:38.240 ask him a question, you know, because if you could talk, 0:22:38.640 --> 0:22:43.880 it bothers me that we're not good. And that's all 0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:48.199 I ever talk about. Before we go to a super Bowl, 0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:51.080 I would like to have two or three ten wins 0:22:51.080 --> 0:22:55.560 seasons or more. That way, when we win that super Bowl, 0:22:56.320 --> 0:22:59.000 we know the next year we're still gonna have ten wins. 0:23:00.200 --> 0:23:04.080 Ain't nothing worse than the world. And like I tell people, 0:23:04.280 --> 0:23:08.160 guys that come into gym jacked up, who whoo, whoo whoo. 0:23:08.320 --> 0:23:10.640 Then about an hour later, then over there, man, oh 0:23:10.680 --> 0:23:16.080 my god, what's happening. Whatever you took didn't last. That's 0:23:16.119 --> 0:23:18.359 why I'm still over here lifting and you over there 0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:21.840 about to die because you got to build a foundation 0:23:22.080 --> 0:23:25.399 and and and we let we let thirty percent afore 0:23:25.440 --> 0:23:30.000 the Centi Foundation get out to right, Let's go to 0:23:30.840 --> 0:23:34.480 the voice of hanging with the boys, Jay and Rhode Island. 0:23:34.480 --> 0:23:38.720 What's up, Jay, Jay?

No, No, it's not 0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:09.200 the Chinese food capital of the world. I just kind 0:24:09.200 --> 0:24:13.240 of had a yain for it. I haven't had it, 0:24:17.200 --> 0:24:19.760 you know. Uh, you know, you're gonna mix it up 0:24:19.800 --> 0:24:22.560 a little bit.
