Speaker 1: and our own Keith Bullock will be inducted. He joins

00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: us on the OTP. What about the Hall of Famer?

8
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 2: I know right like I can't. I feel like I

9
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 2: can't even look him in the eye anymore, like too

10
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 2: make time. No, But I mean, really truly, it's something

11
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,480
Speaker 2: that I know you have seen other people going into

12
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 2: the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame. What is in my

13
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: brain is when Javon Kurse was told you were at

14
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 2: his kind of celebration when he found out, and that

15
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: was such a cool thing. But now for it to

16
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 2: be you, does it kind of feel like it's about time.

17
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 3: Not you know what, not necessarily you know, I was

18
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 3: when I got to college, like my co Paul Pascaloni,

19
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 3: our head coach, was always like, you know, with team

20
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 3: success comes individual honors, And I know I played really

21
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 3: hard here, like Javon Adie, Steve like all the guys,

22
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 3: but we never really to me, like, I never really

23
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 3: accomplished maybe two goals that I had, and you know,

24
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 3: one was to win Defensive MVP and two was to

25
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 3: win the Super Bowl.

26
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 4: But that being said, you know, I got to.

27
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 3: Play behind Albert Hainsworth, who was a runner up or

28
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 3: within the top three of Defensive MVP.

29
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 4: I played on some teams.

30
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 3: That had Super Bowl capability, but for whatever reason, you know,

31
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 3: we just didn't get over the hump. So when it

32
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 3: comes to me, I guess I think, you know it,

33
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 3: it's it's an honor because you know, I kind of

34
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 3: look at my career.

35
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 4: Like art.

36
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 3: You know, you go out there, you practice, you prepare

37
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 3: for those moments.

38
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 4: Like I never got to play in the super Bowl,

39
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 4: but I was prepared for.

40
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 3: All the days that I went out there and practiced

41
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 3: and then that I put into my craft. So yeah,

42
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 3: it's it's pretty cool when people recognize, you know, what

43
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 3: you did. And now you know, I was drafted in

44
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 3: two thousand and it's twenty twenty three, and to really

45
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 3: think back that I've been retired on like a little

46
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 3: over ten years and to put some perspective on it.

47
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 3: You know, I was playing a game, and yeah, and

48
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 3: it was fun and like my purpose was to win,

49
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 3: and like I really you know, bought into you know,

50
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 3: the you know, the foundation that the team that I got.

51
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 4: To play with as a rookie.

52
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 3: Who were an inch of you know, going on to

53
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 3: overtime for the Super Bowl. So there was a mind state.

54
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 3: There was a a way to go about things that

55
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 3: I learned, just like when I got to college year.

56
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 4: It was a way to go about it. So it

57
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 4: was fun. The whole process was fun. And you know,

58
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 4: all the guys that.

59
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 3: I've ever got to play with helped me become a

60
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 3: Hall of Famer in the sense that, you know, I

61
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,839
Speaker 3: took things from their game or you know, if there's

62
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 3: a guy that I know we're gonna need and I

63
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 3: had to get on them a little bit and like

64
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 3: push them and be show leadership in times. And I

65
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 3: didn't want to be a leader because you know, for me,

66
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 3: it was all about winning.

67
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 4: You know, I know that I'm going to do my job.

68
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 3: Sometimes as a leader, you know, you have to bring

69
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 3: guys with you, and that's you know, everything that went

70
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 3: into the game.

71
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 4: I definitely enjoyed it was cool.

72
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 5: So my question is actually for Keith and so I've

73
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 5: got an event coming up in July July twenty second

74
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 5: where we're going to celebrate a new class of inductees

75
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 5: for the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame, and I'm just

76
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 5: wondering if you're free on July twenty second. Oh, I

77
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 5: think the Hall is calling.

78
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: Wow, So talk to me about now that you've had

79
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: time to absorb all of it. The night you were

80
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: told at Nissan Stadium, Brad Willa shows up out of nowhere,

81
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: you're speaking with Rand Carthon. You think you're there for

82
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: just an event. As you go back through that, you

83
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: seemed very shocked. Were you okay?

84
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:26,160
Speaker 3: I was, because you know, we did our normal thing.

85
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 3: In the last ten and eleven years. You've been my teammate,

86
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 3: Amy's been my teammates. So it's like, heyb we were

87
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 3: interding was a fan recognition introducing band. So I was like, yeah,

88
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 3: of course, like I said, if I'm in town, I'm

89
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 3: down and just you know regularly, and Brad to me

90
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 3: like he's he wears mini hat, you know, so there's

91
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 3: no telling what maybe he's trying to get like a

92
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 3: raffle going, I don't even know a raffle, and then

93
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 3: he's asking me what am I doing July twenty second.

94
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 3: I'm like in my head, I'm like, oh, me and

95
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 3: my brothers were supposed to be going to probably be

96
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 3: in Portugal. And then it's like he's like, well, and

97
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 3: then he hit the question. I was like, yeah, of course,

98
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 3: I mean Portugal ain't going nowhere. You know what I'm saying,

99
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 3: we can go there. We'll make that up. We'll make

100
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 3: that time up. So I was definitely taken back, especially,

101
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 3: you know, like I was just explaining like I'm a

102
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 3: decade removed, like I watched the game from Afar through

103
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 3: a different lens, and I'm you know, privileged to do

104
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 3: that kind of like your lens true differently than the fan,

105
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 3: as do you. So you know, I'm not really thinking

106
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 3: about any more honors from football.

107
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 4: So especially here.

108
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 3: It's great that I'm inducted here in the Tennessee Sports

109
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame because you know, this.

110
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 4: Is where I lived half my life.

111
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 3: You know, I got here at twenty two, and you know,

112
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,760
Speaker 3: to be recognized as during that era of the two

113
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 3: thousands is one of the better you know, athletes football

114
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 3: players in Tennessee.

115
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 4: That's pretty cool.

116
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 1: Your daughters did not get to see your career because

117
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: they weren't here right now.

118
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 4: We were focused. I was focused.

119
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: What does this moment mean to them?

120
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 4: You know what? I don't.

121
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: I don't know.

122
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 4: If I don't know, I don't know.

123
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 3: It's funny because when my wife told them, they were like,

124
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 3: isn't daddy already in the Hall of Fame or something

125
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 3: like that.

126
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 4: But I was.

127
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 3: Inducted in my high school in Rockland County and all

128
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:38,160
Speaker 3: those things where I'm from. But yeah, it's just interesting.

129
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 3: So they never saw me play. Kira, my oldest, knew

130
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 3: of me playing because she was about two or three

131
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 3: when I retired. And then the other two come, so

132
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 3: their ages are fifteen, ten and thirteen.

133
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, they just see me as dad. They know what

134
00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 4: I did, but I don't.

135
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 3: I think this will be a great introduction to like, Okay,

136
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 3: my dad is you know. It's just I remember I

137
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 3: do only I don't even take them to games. I

138
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 3: remember the first Titans game I took them to. My

139
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 3: two oldest they were probably like nine and seven. You know,

140
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 3: I'm gonna have football daughters.

141
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: You know.

142
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 3: I got them on the field before the game. They're

143
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 3: picking the grass, like off to the side. They're not

144
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 3: throwing the football or nothing there picking the grass. It's

145
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 3: like they've never seen grass that soft.

146
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, it sounds familiar.

147
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: So it's gonna be cool. It's gonna be cool to see.

148
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: That's gonna be a cool night for us as a family.

149
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 3: You know, because my wife was around the whole time

150
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 3: we were dating. We were together, but we weren't married.

151
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 3: So you know, you know when I wonder, you know,

152
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 3: even for her to even look back and you know,

153
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 3: sitting through that Jets game and Monday night football, remember

154
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 3: that it was I don't know how cold it was,

155
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 3: but she got frostbite. So from San Francisco, so she

156
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 3: you know, she's not up on weather. She had just

157
00:07:58,840 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 3: moved to New York.

158
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 2: It wasn't great, but that is a cool thing to

159
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 2: be able to reflect on with your family, reflect on

160
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 2: with your daughters, but also really take a moment to

161
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 2: really appreciate what it is that you accomplished in your career,

162
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 2: because I'm sure that, yes you've been out of it

163
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 2: for a decade, you have done an incredible amount of stuff.

164
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 2: From a business perspective, You're a busy dude, like you've

165
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 2: got stuff going on, but to be able to take

166
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 2: some time to really reflect on that, being a little

167
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 2: bit further removed than right when you decide to retire,

168
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 2: and so there's all those emotions and feelings now that

169
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 2: you're kind.

170
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: Of out of that.

171
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 2: Are you excited to be able to kind of look

172
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 2: back on your career and say, all right, I did

173
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:44,319
Speaker 2: actually do something?

174
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 4: Yeah?

175
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 3: I mean, I think as a former player, we all reflect.

176
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 4: I think we reflect more often than we lead on.

177
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: You know.

178
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 3: Part of my reflection as a Titan is you know,

179
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: you look at our running backs, right, Earl Campbell set

180
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 3: the tone. Then you had Eddie George, then you had

181
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 3: Chris Johnson, then you have Derrick Henry and you have

182
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 3: some good guys in between. But those are our pillars.

183
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 3: And yeah, you know what I'm saying. And I say

184
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 3: that to say, you know right now, and they're all great,

185
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 3: Pick which one you want?

186
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 4: You know what I mean? Right now?

187
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 3: You know, at my position, you know, there aren't too many.

188
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,199
Speaker 3: There are a lot that I look back and I

189
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 3: like that played here and that gave it all. But

190
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 3: I feel that, you know, like Eddie did, and Earl

191
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 3: Campbell did, and CJ did, and Derek is doing.

192
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 4: I feel like I set the tone for.

193
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,400

Speaker 4: I'm most proud of that when two things.

211
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 3: One is that my last full my last complete game

212
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 3: as a Titan. I was AFC Defensive Player of the Week.

213
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 3: The next week I got hurt. We started that season

214
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,160
Speaker 3: zero and six, but we were trending to sneak in

215
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 3: the playoffs. I really believe if I didn't get hurt,

216
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 3: we would have beat San Diego on Monday night or so.

217
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 1: It was a night, Christmas night.

218
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 4: It was a night game, so you know I was

219
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 4: gonna show up. No, I really.

220
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: Believed you that night. For sure. It showed in the

221
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 1: ball game because we talked about it on the broadcast.

222
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, like I really believe that, you know, you know,

223
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 3: and it kind of made me realize, you know, you know,

224
00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 3: what I meant to the team. So I in to

225
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 3: follow I follow that up with, is I'm really proud

226
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 3: that I left it the way those guys set it up,

227
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 3: you know, like the way that team, you know, the

228
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 3: you know, the.

229
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,439
Speaker 4: Steves and the Eddie's.

230
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 3: And the you know Blame Bishops, the Marcus Robertson's, the

231
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 3: Jason Fisks, like you know, Derek Mason's, you know, Kevin

232
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 3: Dyson's you know, just all those guys, the ninety nine

233
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 3: to two thousand, that team two thousand and one, and

234
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 3: then I became a starter, Like I knew how to

235
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 3: do it.

236
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 4: I knew what it was, how it was supposed to

237
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 4: be done.

238
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 3: You know, we look back now it might be done

239
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 3: a little different, and that's good because organizations are supposed

240
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 3: to evolve and change. You know, you have to go

241
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 3: through your period and that's fine. But for me, I'm

242
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 3: most proud that I had left it, Like how you

243
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 3: know those guys kind of left it when I left.

244
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 2: How much do you keep in touch with guys you

245
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 2: played with?

246
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 4: I think a lot. I think I think we do

247
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 4: a fairly good job. I think.

248
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 3: Miss Amy has done a great job of with the

249
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:11,960
Speaker 3: alumni weekend and which allows you know people now obviously

250
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 3: with the Oilers organization, but with guys I played with

251
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 3: with the Titans, you always have those guys that you

252
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 3: know you might have hung out with and they were

253
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 3: only here for this time of the year, you know,

254
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 3: through OTA's up to camp and then they get cut

255
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 3: at camp. But they're still good people, you know. Through football.

256
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,079
Speaker 3: Obviously we're all out here competing. It's a job. It's

257
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 3: a game, but there's a personal side. We're people more

258
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 3: than we are athletes. And you know, those people that

259
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 3: you connect with and click with, you usually stay in

260
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 3: touch with. And I think that it's great living back

261
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: here in Nashville and being able to you know, even

262
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,319
Speaker 3: if I can't make every event for an alumni weekend,

263
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,959
Speaker 3: you know, I'm sure to get to one. And then

264
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 3: you reconnect with somebody. Yoh, let me get your number.

265
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 3: You're into this or what are you doing now? You

266
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 3: might be in the same business, or you got kids

267
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 3: that are playing volleyball, or oh, I'm here for all that.

268
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 3: So it's pretty cool in this phase of life to

269
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 3: reconnect with those guys. And you know, mental health is

270
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 3: like huge. You know, there's there are guys that are

271
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 3: still stuck, like thinking that their number twenty six for

272
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 3: the Tennessee Titans or the New.

273
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 4: York or whoever it was, you know what I mean.

274
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 3: And I think those opportunities coming together, you know, help

275
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 3: for that as well.

276
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: Ammy Adam Strunk has done so many things and has

277
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 1: helped reconnect I mean the Oilers players to the Titans players,

278
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: and the Oilers players to the Oilers players and the

279
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: Titans players to the Titans players, it's one of the

280
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 1: best things she's done. And then she's connected to guys

281
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 1: in different ways. Amy Adams, Strunk and Chris Johnson.

282
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I mean look, you know, like I think

283
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 3: for me, you know, the only other team that I

284
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 3: got the opportunity to play with was the New York Giants,

285
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 3: you know, one of the original you know franchises of football,

286
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 3: you know, and just to see how mister Marra and

287
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 3: the ownership was there.

288
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 4: I had never seen anything like that, you know.

289
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 3: You know, I appreciated playing here and going out for

290
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 3: the guys and the coaches and for the people I

291
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 3: played for, you know, the city, but you know, just

292
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 3: to really observe mister marraor I practice every day talking

293
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 3: to the GM and I'm like, okay, like I saw

294
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 3: the business side of it, and I didn't get to

295
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 3: see that. And you know, once a Giant, always a Giant,

296
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 3: like I remember, you know, they just got Odell Beckham

297
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 3: junior and I played for the Giants and once upon

298
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 3: a time for a cup of coffee. You know, I

299
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 3: was there for a season, but I reached out. My

300
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 3: little nephew wanted to go to practice, Yeah, come on

301
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 3: through and they treated me and I was like really

302
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 3: impressed by that. And I think that and I know

303
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 3: that miss Amy is that's she's trending. She's doing that

304
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 3: like she does that. You know, as a former player,

305
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 3: you know, there was a time obviously when mister Adams

306
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 3: died in ownership was in limbo where it wasn't welcoming

307
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 3: at all to come around or you know, feel is

308
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 3: a part of the organization. And I think that, you know,

309
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 3: while I know for a fact that that is part

310
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 3: of the Samy's goal, and more importantly for those old

311
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 3: time guys that were in Houston that probably felt they

312
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 3: got left behind for a couple of decades, her rolling

313
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,800

335
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: guys were the building blocks. You were the pillars as

336
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 1: we get ready to move into the new stadium. It

337
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 1: was the foundation you laid that takes us there. And

338
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: you know, the fan base has been tremendous. But I

339
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: mean those days and you know those teams, those were

340
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 1: magic Sundays. And I think we have a lot more

341
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: to come, which is really fun.

342
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure.

343
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 3: And you know you speak about those players, those men

344
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 3: h Unfortunately, unfortunately they didn't get to play here as

345
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 3: long as I did. For a ten year career made

346
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,679
Speaker 3: with the Tennessee Titans, you know, get to play in

347
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 3: front of these home fans. But they set the tone,

348
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 3: They set the foundation with that first season in Adelphia Stadium,

349
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,439
Speaker 3: in the Colisseum, that's what it was called, those Aiadelphia

350
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 3: col Iadelphia Colisseum, And just that set the tone for

351
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:43,719
Speaker 3: my career.

352
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 4: You know, that set the tone for my career.

353
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 3: I remember the next year, we had a losing season,

354
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 3: and you know, I just remember the last game of

355
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:55,199
Speaker 3: the season.

356
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 4: I think we played the Bengals and.

357
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,200
Speaker 1: Because that was the game that was postponed due to

358
00:18:59,280 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: nine to eleven.

359
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was just a game that was like

360
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 3: it was rainy, it was I remember, like, and we lost,

361
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 3: and I just remember the fans, like the ones that

362
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 3: stayed and came like clapping, giving us like a like

363
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,239
Speaker 3: and we lost, and like since then, like that's what

364
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 3: it's all about. And like, you know, I played for

365
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 3: three things. You know, I played you know, for my family, fans,

366
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 3: and my teammates. You know what I'm saying. So you

367
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,200
Speaker 3: know that's when the fans it used to be myself.

368
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 3: But that's when you know you're realizing you're playing a

369
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 3: professional game, You're making money. You got fans that depend

370
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 3: on you for their Sundays. Especially in a town now

371
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 3: big city like Nashville, where people are spending money on

372
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 3: a ticket on Sunday, you know, you know they're giving

373
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 3: something up that they could be doing in their life.

374
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 1: Hey, Titans fans hard to decide. What's the best part

387
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 1: another fantastic event. Best player you ever played with? Can

388
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 1: you name one?

389
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, just honestly, off the top of my head, I

390
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 3: was Chris Johnson.

391
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 4: And I say that.

392
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 3: Because I had been playing and there are people before that,

393
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 3: you know, I could put in there for sure, But

394
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 3: I say Chris Johnson because at that time we were

395
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:17,360
Speaker 3: playing a style of football, tough defense, run the football,

396
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 3: slug it out. We was just tough. We're a tough club.

397
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 3: We weren't. You know, we might beat you, we might not.

398
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 3: It was like that, like season we got a little

399
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 3: electrifying because you got Vince Young, Lindell pac Man that

400
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 3: you know. But Chris Johnson, he was the first guy

401
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 3: in a long time that was like whoa you know

402
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 3: when you when when he gets his space and he

403
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 3: did his thing.

404
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 4: He was very fun to watch.

405
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 3: Was a great teammate to play with in that sense

406
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 3: that as a defensive player, as a linebacker, it's like, Okay,

407
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,719
Speaker 3: you can't let anybody another running back play better than

408
00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 3: Chris on Sundays because he's the only running back should shine.

409
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 3: We got the best running back in the league. And

410
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 3: I already know that it's hard to get, you know,

411
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 3: some notoriety. So for me, defensively. It was one of

412
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 3: my missions and it had always been whoever we're playing against,

413
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 3: to shut and shut them down. And my matchup was

414
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 3: typically a running back tight end. But when Chris Johnson

415
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 3: got here, I took it a little more personal and

416
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 3: it was just fun.

417
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 4: It was fun. So I just, off the top of

418
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 4: my head, good answer.

419
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,360
Speaker 2: You've got the mister Monday Night name just locked up.

420
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,640
Speaker 2: You will be mister Monday Night for all time. What

421
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 2: was it about those primetime games, those big moments that

422
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 2: really made Keith Bullock shine?

423
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 3: So, I mean, it's just with the opportunities we got

424
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 3: to play on television.

425
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 4: You know, we didn't get to play on television too much.

426
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 3: So if if you watch the Titans every Sunday, I'm

427
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 3: shining just about every Sunday, you know. But then when

428
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 3: you get on television, for me, it was easy, Like,

429
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 3: I like those moments. My favorite players is o Cho Senko,

430
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 3: just because you know, he talks to talk and you

431
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,199
Speaker 3: walk the walk and he walked the wall for the

432
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,239
Speaker 3: most part, and like that's kind of just how I

433
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:13,160
Speaker 3: felt about myself. And then you're playing prime time, they're

434
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 3: putting all these cameras in your face, half the reporters

435
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,199
Speaker 3: don't even know who you are, like, don't know your career.

436
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,160
Speaker 3: So you know, I'm not backing down from a challenge.

437
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,719
Speaker 3: And you know, sometimes your teams need to hear that

438
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 3: from their leaders. You know what I'm saying, certain things

439
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:32,719
Speaker 3: of confidence that it's like, you know, I remember when

440
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 3: Lance Schulters was here. We're playing the AFC Championship against

441
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 3: the Raiders, and he tells Jimmy why He's like.

442
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 4: Jerry Recei's a crybaby.

443
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 3: He's always he's calling Jerry Rice a cry baby before

444
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 3: the AFC Championship game.

445
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 4: If you don't think this is bullboard material.

446
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 3: And then Jimmy comes to me, He's like, yeah, Keith,

447
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 3: Lance says, you know, Jerry Rice is a crabbe have

448
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 3: you known Jerry Rice to be a crime like I have?

449
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 3: Lance said that, he said it. You know, it just

450
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 3: is what it is, you know what I'm saying.

451
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's just only the greatest receiver of all time.

452
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 1: Yeah it's okay, So yeah, just just fun times what

453
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 1: you think about all of it, and you could think

454
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: about different moments in different games.

455
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,400
Speaker 4: Wasn't it just fun? Yeah?

456
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 3: It was it was fun. People ask me all the time.

457
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 3: They're coming to my shop, I'm ringing them up, I'm

458
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 3: making them a lote. They're asking me stuff about what's

459
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 3: going on with the Titans. I'm like, sir, my six

460
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 3: o'clock called out. I had to get here. I ain't

461
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 3: even thinking about the Titans. But then we get into conversations.

462
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, do I miss it? They that's the

463
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,439
Speaker 3: famous question, do you miss it? It's like, no, I

464
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 3: did it, like I literally did it. Like like I

465
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 3: feel every challenge that a coach had given me throughout

466
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 3: this game, every challenge I given myself, every challenge a

467
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 3: teammate giving me, a reporter has given me, an opponent

Speaker 4: Sometimes you don't. You don't you know, succeed, and that's

471
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 4: part of it, to get your butt back out there practice.

00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 4: How do I.

473
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 3: Figure it out? And all of that. It's your job

474
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 3: at the time. But it's fun, you know, But this

475

Speaker 3: is your job. But love it, you know what I'm saying.

476
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,959
Speaker 1: So, but you played with such joy. Yeah, that's why

477
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,720

00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: you practiced with joy, and you had joy in the

479
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: locker room, and it's like, man, that is just that's

480
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: the way to do it.

481
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I definitely I played with a purpose. You know.

482
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,679
Speaker 3: At first it was in high school, was to get

483
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 3: a scholarship to get out of Foster care. Then when

484
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,439
Speaker 3: I got to Syracuse, I got around some guys that

485
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,919
Speaker 3: were you know, Hall of Fame Marvin Harrison, anminment like

486
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 3: and I was like, oh, so that's how you get

487
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 3: to the NFL. So I started working, working, working, and

488
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 3: I was on my journey and and I get here

489
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 3: and I learned from the foundation that was set by

490
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 3: you know, those guys that I've been naming, and you know,

491
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 3: then it's my turn, and you got to figure out

492
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 3: how to do it. And that's why I say, you know,

493
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 3: when it was my turn, like they're like here you go, Keith,

494
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 3: and we're four and twelve and five and eleven. But

495
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:12,880
Speaker 3: you got to figure it out. You got to figure

496
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 3: out how to be a leader on defense to you know,

497
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 3: help the offense, to help the team.

498
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 4: To help the coaches, to help this whole.

499
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 3: Thing get going. And you know, kind of reminds me

500
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 3: of being the owner of a coffee shot.

501
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: All right, I've got one more? Do you have another one?

502
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: Or okay, Keith Bullock, who's the best player you ever

503
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 1: played against?

504
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 4: Best player?

505
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:43,479
Speaker 3: The best player I've ever played against is definitely.

506
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,879
Speaker 4: There's no order and there's no butt. Like off the

507
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 4: top of my head, is Peyton Manning? Really?

508
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 3: You know, you got to think about it. Think about

509
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 3: all the teams we had here. If the Colts didn't

510
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 3: have Peyton Manning. How many times do we win the

511
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 3: AFC AFC South? How many times are we playing the

512
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 3: New England Patriots, you know, or that division or for

513
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 3: that you know, you know that title.

514
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 4: And that's funny you asked that question. I thought about

515
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 4: this the other day.

516
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 3: You know, play in the ABC with Peyton Manning and

517
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 3: Tom Brady, you know, and we competed, you know, obviously

518
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,400
Speaker 3: we had some down years, but those are the years

519
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 3: we didn't have a quarterback, you know. So yeah, it's

520
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 3: just it just goes to show what, you know, the

521
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 3: quarterback position does. And hey, I don't I don't feel

522
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 3: no kind.

523
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 4: Of way about that, you know.

524
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 3: That's how you know I can measure myself against you know,

525
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 3: some of the great players that plays two times a year,

526
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,880
Speaker 3: I'm facing Peyton Manning and you know, I'm sure.

527
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: You had some luck against it.

528
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, some luck and maybe no, no, no, no, no,

529
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 3: definitely some luck and I made a couple of plays.

530
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 3: But Peyton Manning isn't going to allow you to make

531
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 3: plays against him. You know, he's you know, So that's

532
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, Like, certain guys can keep you in

533
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 3: your place, and he's one of those guys, and you've.

534
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 4: Got to have some luck against the sheriff.
