26
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: let's do it. Yep, all right, let's jump right into

27
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: the schedule. Come now, because it's the news. It's everything.

28
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: I've been with several people this morning. It's all anybody

29
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: can talk about. The schedule came out last night at

30
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: seven o'clock. Titans open on the road against the Cleveland

31
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: Browns and then come home for Indianapolis road games at

32
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: Jacksonville on a Thursday night and Atlanta follow So that's

33
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 1: September three on the road, in September three at home.

34
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: In October Buffalo the Chargers in Tampa at home, in

35
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: between a trip to Denver. November is the month that

36
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: we will finally see the Titans get a buy but

37
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:24,119
Speaker 1: that doesn't come until week eleven. First, it's November third

38
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: at Carolina and then home for the Kansas City Chiefs

39
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: on November tenth. The month ends as the Titans go

40
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: back into the AFC South, taking on the Jacksonville Jaguars

41
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: to three oh five start at Nissan Stadium, and then

42
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: five games in December, some heavy lifting at Indianapolis and

43
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 1: at Oakland, and then two games with Houston within three weeks,

44
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: really within two weeks actually home on December fifteenth, closed

45
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: the season at Houston on December twenty ninth. In between

46
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: it's Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints coming to

47
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: town on December twenty second. So that is the run through.

48
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: Amy Adams strunk. When you saw it, what did you think? Well,

49
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: right away, you know, Cleveland jumped out and I went, wow,

50
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: we get the hottest, hottest team right now, according on

51
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: paper to start out with. But you know, when I

52
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 1: look at a schedule every year, I say the same thing, which,

53
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: oh gosh, this looks hard. But it's like that every year.

54
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: So you know, things tend to play differently as you

55
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 1: go along. But my first reaction was we we bear

56
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: beyond our game and right away, but we'll have plenty

57
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: of time to to get what we need for Cleveland though,

58
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: So that's good. That's a good point. You get the

59
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: whole offseason to get ready. How do you get the schedule?

60
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: Do you get hints at it? How does that work? No,

61
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: not really at all. I got it earlier in the day, um,

62
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: actually in the morning, and so no, not really. Do

63
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: you have any input beforehand? Do you go to them

64
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: and say, hey, we'd like this and have you done that?

65
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: I mean, if you'll if you have a scheduling problem

66
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: with a stadium, absolutely they want to know and they'll

67
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: work around that. But other than that, you know, when

68
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: or anything like that on any team. Now, that is interesting.

69
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: You would kind of think that the owners would all

70
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: have some sort of input, But I can't imagine that. Yeah,

71
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: I get two of us. Haven't our input? That'd be

72
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: really scary. It would be a little chaotic, I guess

73
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 1: if you think about it. But you all, I just

74
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: always assumed, I mean, I don't know. I always assumed

75
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: that you'd have some sort of a I don't know,

76
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: like a comet. The only thing that they really consult

77
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: with teams are or any conflicts with your stadium. Yeah, Amy,

78
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 1: we did a special OTP last night, and if you're

79
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: a subscriber to the podcast if you subscribe to the

80
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: OTP podcast, which you should. We hope you were pleasantly

81
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: surprised last night into this morning that you got a

82
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 1: special fifteen minute reaction about the schedule from the Great

83
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: Gem Wide and Amy Wells. Anything change in your mind

84
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: about how you feel about the schedule now that you've

85
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 1: had fifteen hours to absorb it, you know, I almost

86
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 1: I was thinking about it last night actually when I

87
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: was driving home, and the way that it is all

88
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: spaced out is so intriguing to me. I like the

89
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: way that it's sections off almost by months, like the

90
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,119
Speaker 1: quarters and the months, you know how football coaches always

91
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: try to deal with it almost in like four quarters,

92
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: you know, And so the way that it's sections off

93
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: I really like. I like that you have little pockets

94
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: of time where you have some big challenges, you have

95
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: some rough stretches, but then you have some times that

96
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: you can kind of pull back and either get back

97
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 1: into a routine of a couple noon games in a row,

98
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: or get back into Nissan Stadium for a couple weeks.

99
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: It seems like it's very very very well balanced, and

100
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: so some of the times that I initially looked at

101
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 1: it like December. Well, I was like, ooh, this is

102
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: going to be really hard. The more I thought about it,

103
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: the more I was like, it's pretty well balanced, though,

104
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 1: so I'm looking forward to it. I think it's going

105
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: to be Obviously, a football season is a long road,

106
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: but I think it's gonna be a fun road ahead. Well,

107
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: I was going to say, you know, when I looked

108
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: at the schedule, of course I immediately go to do

109
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 1: we have any Monday night, you know, Sunday night, those

110
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: kind of things, And that was a little disappointed that

111
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,719
Speaker 1: it was just the Thursday night. But you know, it

112
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 1: is what it is, and you just put your head

113
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 1: down and keep going. You can't worry about it. The

114
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,919
Speaker 1: only thing that really got me with it when I

115
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 1: really sat and thought about it, was the fact that

116
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: in week two you're going to play Indianapolis, and that

117
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:48,239
Speaker 1: is that's an emotional game for the Titans period, because

118
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: you're taking on a team haven't beaten Andrew Luck unfortunately,

119
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: it's a big game that we played them to end

120
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: the season to go to the playoffs last year. And

121
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: then you have to turn around on Wednesday and go

122
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 1: to Jacksonville because the game is on Thursday and whether

123
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: you win or whether you lose against Indy, that's gonna

124
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: be hard because it's going to be an emotional reaction whatever.

125
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: It's going to challenge the team right away, and it's

126
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: not unfair, it's just you. You'd prefer it a different way.

127
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: I think it's going that what is a ten day

128
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: period is really going to be a tone setter for

129
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: the first half of the season. I think that if

130
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: the Titans are able to beat Andrew Luck and then

131
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: we're able to go to Jacksonville and get things done,

132
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: I think that the momentum that that's going to generate

133
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: going through up until the bye week is going to

134
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: be so much fun. I think that if that doesn't

135
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 1: go the way that we're all hoping it goes right now,

136
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: I think that this team is really going to have

137
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: to grind and kind of have a come to Jesus

138
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: moment earlier than most teams normally would when they hit

139
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: a rough patch. I think that's going to be really

140
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: defining for they can't come out serious now because those

141
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: games wow. And then at the end the Houston that's odd,

142
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 1: it's odd, that was like what but but at least

143
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: it's not three games in a row on the road,

144
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: which we've done in years past, and so have we

145
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: not had was it Indianapolis? When it seems like we've

146
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: done this Indianapolis game Indianapolis before we have we have

147
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: thought we had have and and this is the earliest

148
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: we've seen the Colts since twenty fifteen. Well, maybe that's

149
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: a good omen maybe it's a good and maybe that works. Yes,

150
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: we shall certainly see. Remind everyone single game tickets are

Speaker 1: a Titan season ticket member and enjoy what all's going

156
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,240

157
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: this great schedule at home, but a lot of what's

158
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: happening right now that's very exciting. The season ticket member events,

159
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: we already have two in the books. We went to Jackson,

160
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 1: Tennessee on Monday and had a fantastic event at Hub

161
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: City Brewing. And then yesterday Dave McGinnis and I went

162
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: to gray Stone Golf Club and with our friends at

163
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: the Dixon Rotary. We hosted Titan season ticket members and

164
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: it was packed and Coach Mac was absolutely mesmerizing. He

165
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 1: would still be there answering question. The fantastic and so

166
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: thank you to the Dixon Rotary for doing that, and

167
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 1: obviously thank you to Dave McGinnis for making that happen,

168
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: and most of all, thank you to Titan season ticket members.

169
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: When we are all set and done with season ticket

170
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: member events, we will have had fourteen and so around

171
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: the draft. And you know it's interesting too, Amy telling

172
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: people about the NFL Fan Mobile Pass explaining how the

173
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 1: mechanics of the draft are gonna work. I mean, people

174
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: are really interested to know exactly, you know what all

175
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: it's going to be starting next Thursday. I think that

176
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: word has spread that this is going to be awesome.

177
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 1: Now people just want to know logistics. They want hard fast,

178
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 1: how do I get there? How do I make this happen.

179
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a doubt in anybody's mind that

180
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: this is a must see. I think the issue now

181
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: is where do I put my car, how do I

182
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,079
Speaker 1: get in, how do I get the best spot? What

183
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 1: time is my band going to be playing? That kind

184
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,959
Speaker 1: of stuff. So whatever we need to do to get

185
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: out into the world and spread the good news, I'm

186

00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 1: Why do you consider these sorts of events so important

203
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: in what you believe this organization should be to its

204
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: season ticket members. Well, I think that our fans know

205
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: that They're the very most important thing to me. So

206
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: anytime we can participate with some fan engagement, whether it

207
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: was going to Jackson or Dickson or wherever. You know,

208
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 1: Titan fans are all over the state, and we need

209
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: to make sure that they get to see and hear

210
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: about what we're doing and what's going on. It's all

211
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: very important. I think everyone knows how much I enjoy

212
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: talking to fans and and just you know, being out

213
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: there with them. And I think it kind of You've

214
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: got John the same way, You've got Mike the same way.

215
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 1: It's kind of, you know, it's a good thing that

216
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: we all feel that our fans are the most important thing.

217
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: Are you surprised how they respond to you, How the

218
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 1: fans respond to you, particularly the season ticket members, and

219
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: the pride that they take in having a chance to

220
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: spend time with you. Well, I think, you know, when

221
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: I first became controlling owner, you know, there was they

222
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: didn't know me, they didn't know if they should approach me,

223
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 1: that sort of thing. And I think now they understand

224
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm one of them. Come talk to me.

225
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: I love it. And so I'm not surprised now because

226
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: I just think I'm myself as a regular person, and

227
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 1: you know I can. I'll love to talk to our

228
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 1: fans and so, you know, come come on. Do you

229
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: get recognized when you're in Nashville. I do. It's funny.

230
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: I really do at obviously all Tighten adventures right away.

231
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: But when I'm out and about you can kind of

232
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 1: tell someone's like no, noa, noa, noa, noa. You know

233
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:31,719
Speaker 1: they just are like maybe, but very rarely. I mean

234
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 1: at the grocery store maybe five times since I've been here,

235
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: but that wasn't your life now until four years ago.

236
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:44,959
Speaker 1: So what's it like? Well, you know, I'm like, oh,

237
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 1: it's way fun okay, And if I'm in the grocery store,

238
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: I'll sit and talk to you for a while about things.

239
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: So it's your chance to get get some inside scoop

240
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 1: if you if you're brave enough to come on and

241
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: let's talk getting inside scoop over Oh my gosh. Oh yes.

242
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: I've got tons and tons of questions from social media,

243
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,199
Speaker 1: and I'm filtering all the people who just want to

244
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: say thank you for all that you've done and um,

245
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: but there are some actual questions in here. Here's one.

246
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: Can you tell us what it's like for you as

247
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: an owner to sit back and watch John Robinson work

248
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: during the off season. Well, John, first of all, is

249
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: a fun person, so you know, right there puts a

250
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: different element to it because you know, he's certainly not

251
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: boring by any stretch. But you know people are like, well,

252
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: do you know which way direction we're gone? I said,

253
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: I could tell you this week, but it could change

254
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 1: a hundred times by the time we get to the draft,

255
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: because that's just John. But you can, as fun and

256
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: as great a person as John is, he is the

257
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: hardest work GM. I mean, every time I walk into

258
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: his office, he's looking at film and they're going back

259
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: over film and back over film and trying to do

260
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: his you know, their due diligence on these players. So

261
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: you know, I'll call him up and especially during free agency,

262
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 1: and we talk about different guys and whatnot, and you know,

263
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna tell John who or you know, we

264
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: need to get, but it's fun for me to hear

265
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: what his thoughts are. And I'm not shy about telling

266
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: my thoughts. I just know that I pay these guys

267
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 1: to do the work. I'm not going to get in

268
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 1: the mental of it. And tell him who to pick

269
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 1: or who to sign. I have another one here from Facebook.

270
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: What's the biggest lesson you've learned as an owner so far? Well,

271
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: I'm you know, sometimes I'd like to think that I

272
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: am not just really quick to react, that I think

273
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: things through a long time. You know, when we moved

274
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: on from Kin What Wiz and Hunt, that wasn't an overnight.

275
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: It was kind of coming and you know, I had

276
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: to think about things. I always am like trying to

277
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: make sure and make the right decision. The one thing

278
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: with my dad, I think sometimes he got emotional and

279
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: he pulled the trigger on things that maybe if he

280
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: reflected a little longer, he might have changed his mind.

281
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 1: And I like to think that I do that. One

282
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: more from social media. What is it like for you

283
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 1: being a woman in a predominantly male industry. Well, I'm

284
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: here in Nashville. It's it just doesn't have any relevance.

285
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's you know, Mike and John don't

286
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: have a problem. The players don't have a problem with

287
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: a woman owner. You know, it was it was different

288
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: at the owners meetings. You know, there's there's more and

289
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 1: more women coming in to the to the room now.

290
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 1: So you know, Um, I was telling John McClean, I said,

291
00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: we all do tend to gravitate together. And for a

292
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,959
Speaker 1: while there it was as far as controlling owners. It

293
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: was missus Ford and myself and I mean we headed

294
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 1: off immediately. I mean it with her daughter to Sheila Hemp,

295
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: and um, it's it's you just I like to say,

296
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: you kind of go in and you just pay your

297
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: dues a little bit and don't try to push in.

298
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: And I think they're very accepting now. And that room's

299
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: looking there's a lot of women in there now. There

300
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 1: are there's a lot of women from four years ago.

301
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 1: There are a lot more women throughout the league than

302
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: even when I started. Yeah, I love that. If you're capable,

303
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: you're capable, that's right. Yeah, all right, So tell us

304
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 1: this story. What was your role in the process of

305
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:05,239
Speaker 1: helping get the draft to Nashville. Well, I think by

306
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: now everyone knows that in twenty eleven, butch Spiriting, you know,

307
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 1: he definitely thought Nashville could host a draft, but the

308
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 1: league wasn't moving it around then, so he had to

309
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: do some fast talking. He was always pushing that, yes,

310
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 1: the league should move At that time, I was more

311
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 1: like dealing with ownership issues with the league, and you

312
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 1: know I was I was like, I think it's a

313
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 1: great idea, I just don't know one they're not moving it.

314
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: You know. So as time went on and they got

315
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 1: more comfortable with that, I think that a scheduling conflict

316
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: in New York, and so they decided to move it.

317
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: You know, we sent a delegation, Butch was in there

318
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 1: pushing hard and at least we got on the list then,

319
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: which was really good. So as time went on here

320
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 1: it went to Chicago, and then it went to Philadelphia,

321
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: and in Philadelphia I think us when we actually really

322
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: truly made the shortlist and we you know, the plan

323
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:23,360
Speaker 1: of how it would look, you know, Nissan Stadium. We

324
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 1: had to make a plan with them on how we

325
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: would interact with the draft, and so m definitely. You know,

326
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 1: this is such a huge event and it's made over

327
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 1: many many years, and it's also so many hours have

328
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: been devoted to making this a success. And whether it's

329
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: the Titans or the league, or Butch or the Metro

330
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 1: Police chief Steve Anderson' you can imagine what the safety

331
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:08,360
Speaker 1: issues are. And so you know, this was not an

332
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: amy deal. Or this was a community deal the mayor Briley.

333
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 1: I mean, Butch and the Titans came up with the plan,

334
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: and you add music and all the fun things that

335
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: Nashville has to offer, and I like to think that

336
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 1: we made the list. They were looking at us closely.

337
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 1: But here we go that uniform reveal that opened some

338
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 1: eyes big time. That was the deal closure, I think it.

339
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,919
Speaker 1: I mean, no one from the league said that, did it,

340
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: but they were all they could not believe it. I mean,

341
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: they could not believe that twenty thousand of our fans.

342
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: So here you go. Our fans are instrumental in bringing

343
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: the draft here. I mean without them that night showing

344
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 1: what Nashville can be, I don't know that they would have.

345
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: I can't answer for them, but I'm thinking that was huge.

346
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,479
Speaker 1: That was huge and a whole lot of fun. It

347
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: was fun. It was fun. So when you were told

348
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: that Nashville was getting the draft, what was your first reaction?

349
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 1: While I was ecstatic, because you know, I'd kind of

350
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: heard rumors that were in there, and you know, I'd

351
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 1: talked to the commissioner and he would never kind of

352
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: let the cat out of the bag. But he was like,

353
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: if if if you if Nashville and you know he

354
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: wanted some reassurances from the Titans and you know, so

355
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 1: it was I was like this, you know, my fingers crossed, please,

356
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,479
Speaker 1: but um oh, I was just so happy. I was

357
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: like I think when they announced it at the owners

358
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 1: meeting in May and I went out to do media interviews,

359
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:59,919
Speaker 1: I was like, boa, I remember Steve Wi said me

360
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: on Good Morning Football, went, wow, you have a lot

361
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: of energy. So I was excited. It's exciting. It was.

362
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: It was really exciting. Since you got to town. Have

363
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: you been downtown yet? Yes, well I've been. I've seen

364
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 1: it from afar and it is believing. Now it made

365
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: our stage, which I thought was huge, makes it look

366
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: like tiny, tim I mean it was teeny yeah, teeny.

367
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 1: So this thing is just I cannot wait. I'm getting

368
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,360
Speaker 1: a tour next week of the whole setup for the

369
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 1: VP in the back and the media and the whole

370
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 1: nine yards. So so since that announcement last May, what

371
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 1: has your role been in this whole draft process? Well, um,

372
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 1: since last May. You know, that's when really we had

373
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: the plan already. Um, it's league driven. They decided where

374
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: they were going to put it, whether it was going

375
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: to be at the stadium or where exactly. Once again

376
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 1: the uniform reveal, I mean there in their minds, even

377
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: though they looked at all the Amphitheater and all that

378
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: they had it down where they wanted it, they wanted

379
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: it on Broadway Lower Broadway. So from then, you know,

380
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: there's so many additional things now that we had to

381
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: start working through. We got a host committee, and you

382
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 1: know that was important because we needed to raise money

383
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: from the community for our share of things that that

384
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:40,440
Speaker 1: we were going to pay for. And I just there

385
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 1: was it was almost just overwhelming, but there were so

386
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: many people involved. Like I said, we had the mayor.

387
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: You know, we're talking like street closures and all these

388
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 1: things that had to be worked out, and you know,

389
00:23:55,960 --> 00:24:01,439
Speaker 1: everybody from the mayor's office, the governor, everybody jumped on

390
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 1: board and was just great, just great. In fact that

391
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 1: the League has told me that Nashville has been the

392
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 1: very very best to work with. And that host committee too, Oh,

393
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: I mean, what a key group of people. When you

394
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: see those people in a room, I mean it's pretty

395
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 1: impressive who you pulled together to make that. Ron Samuel's

396
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 1: and Rob McKay with Pinnacle. I mean they they were

397
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 1: Phil Wink Yeah, McGraw. Yes, it was an impressive group

398
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:40,679
Speaker 1: and everybody. You know, the economic impact what this draft

399
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 1: brings to Nashville is so huge, and everybody, all the

400
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: business leaders recognize that this is huge for us. And

401
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure you know, Butch is still working hard. But

402
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's already thinking what next big event he

403
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 1: can be bringing to Nashville. Are you ready to do

404
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: more social I have them if you've got the time. Okay,

405
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 1: Given the past three winning seasons, have you seen a

406
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,359
Speaker 1: big increase in the Tennessee Titans fan base? Oh? Definitely.

407
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: I mean there was you know, in the beginning, there

408
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 1: was just a little I hate to say it, but

409
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 1: no faith. And as things kind of moved on and

410
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 1: changes were made, excuse me, you know, the fans start

411
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: you could kind of see they were getting excited. And

412
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: after the season before last when we went to the

413
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: playoffs and actually one beat Kent City, I mean there

414
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 1: was a lot of i mean off the fence and

415
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 1: firmly planning in Titan Land. You know, it was exciting.

416
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: So we just got to keep keep the excitement going.

417
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 1: We gotta keep you know, improving, and you know, I

418
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,439
Speaker 1: think every year the draft brings you know, renewed hope.

419
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: Those guys we're gonna get to help us out. And

420
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: so here we go. Here's another one. I think this

421
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: one's from Facebook as well. What's been the best game

422
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: atmosphere that you've experienced so far? M a stumper the

423
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:28,879
Speaker 1: best game atmosphere? Well, as for last year, I would

424
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: say New England game was rocking. Yep, that's what came

425
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: to my mess. But I also think the Houston game

426
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 1: at home was so unexpected that when we came out

427
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,959
Speaker 1: and did what we did and scored that touchdown, yeah,

428
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 1: I think that just had the fans like, oh gosh,

429
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: were you know, we shouldn't be winning, We shouldn't be

430
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: able to win this, but we we might and and

431
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 1: you can just feel the game building with the fan excitement.

432
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 1: And then you had New England and well the Indianapolis

433
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: the final game. People turned out and they they were

434
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: helping that football team stay in a game where I mean,

435
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 1: you know, you don't want to say you're playing with

436
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: one arm tied behind your back, but the Titans were

437
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: at a deficit personnel wise ten minutes to go in

438
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: the game, you got the ball and you're only down

439
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,719
Speaker 1: a touchdown, and I just felt the crowd just keeping

440
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: the team in it and felt like the old days. Totally. Yes,

441
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 1: it did, and I mean we were in it, we

442
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: were absolutely so. I mean, I gotta give those fans

443
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,680
Speaker 1: a lot of props because they came out. They you know,

444
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 1: they were excited, they were holy smoked there and so

445
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: many good games though now my brain is churning through them.

446
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:59,640
Speaker 1: London was awesome. Adelphia twenty sixteen. Yeah, that Jaguars game

447
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 1: to put us in the playoffs at the end of

448
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen. Oh man, so many good remembering. You know.

449
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,919
Speaker 1: One of the better things that has happened in recent years,

450
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: in my opinion, has just been the way the team

451
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,199
Speaker 1: has played under John Robinson. The team has played so

452
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: much better at home. And I mean that listen. To

453
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 1: go to the playoffs, you have to win your home games.

454
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: But that also helps you sell tickets, it helps you

455
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 1: build the atmosphere. I mean, it's if the team plays

456
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 1: well at home, it's a huge shot in the arm

457
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 1: for the entire franchise all about, right, It truly is.

458
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 1: And we've had some great gangs last year. I mean,

459
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: you can't even let leave off Philadelphia game. I mean

460
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: we wanted in the last right, Yeah, overtime? Yeah, I

461
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: went for it on fourth down too many times. I

462
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 1: didn't think I was going to make it out of

463
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: there without at That was just too much. I had

464
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: you in my head the whole time. Fun like that

465
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: and when people go away from it, And that's what

466
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 1: it's really about, because the truth is the challenge in

00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 1: all of sports today's you can watch game on TV,

468
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 1: and the challenge is it's gotta be fun. What has

469
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 1: to be fun. It has to be something that you

470
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: go away saying to your friends, I was there, right,

471
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: And that's kind of what this draft is all about, too,

472
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 1: is I know. So I was talking to a guy

Speaker 1: I'm staying at an air B and B in Brentwood,

475
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,000

00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 1: but I'm going to be part of it because I

477
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: want to say I was there. And that's the type

478
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 1: of amos. That's the type of atmosphere you have to

479
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,520
Speaker 1: have for the games too. That's what you're you're looking

480

523
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 1: draft so unique, is all the music and um, the

524

Speaker 1: any hesitation. They wanted to be part of it. And

528
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,480
Speaker 1: I think when fans come, I think, you know, they're

529
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: just gonna this isn't gonna be your normal draft. It's not.

530
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 1: I mean, you've got all the honky tonks down there.

531
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: It's it's I'm I personally have not been to other drafts.

532
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 1: I'm a little busy here at times, but I can't

533
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 1: imagine that there's ever been one that's gonna be this

534
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: much fun. They've said that the footprint is the biggest

535
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: one ever. Yeah, so that alone means we win. You

536
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: mentioned draft, and you mentioned that you're busy during the draft.

537
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: What is your role leading up to the draft and

538
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: then day of and all three on the football side, Well,

539
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: I mean John and I talk probably four or five

540
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: times a week for sure. And you know, I always asking, well,

541
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: what direction this time? So I'd like to hear where

542
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: it's what they're kind of thinking. And I think I

543
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 1: touched on this a minute ago. I'm not gonna I'm

544
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:13,319
Speaker 1: not an expert. I'm I study, I you know, try

545
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 1: to be as up on everything as I can. But

546
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 1: those the John and Mike and the scouts, they're working this.

547
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 1: You know, he's already looked at players for next year.

548
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 1: I mean, this is something they study all the time,

549
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 1: and so leading up to the draft, I just kind

550
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,799
Speaker 1: of want to hear about what's going on during in

551
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,399
Speaker 1: the war room. You know, he might say, if we're

552
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: making a trade here moving this ray, are you okay? Yes?

553
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 1: You know, I leave it to John because John's the expert.

554
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 1: The way I look at it, I've been paying him

555
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: to be that expert, and so I'm gonna go with

556
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 1: you know, I trust him. I think he's building a

557
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:59,880
Speaker 1: great team and we're just I'm I'm there to support.

558
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,800
Speaker 1: Can I ask a question from social media girl, Kevin

559
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: would like to know what would your dad think of

560
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: all of this, the spectacle that is coming to Nashville. Well,

561
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 1: you know, back in the day, the draft was like

562
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 1: in a little hotel room somewhere and it was just

563
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 1: obviously in over the years it grew to when it

564
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:26,240
Speaker 1: was in music radio cities, yes, in New York. And

565
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 1: so I don't even know if he could fathom how

566
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,440
Speaker 1: big this is gonna be, but he would love it.

567
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,399
Speaker 1: He would love it. He would think it was just great.

568
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,319
Speaker 1: And he'd be so proud of Nashville and the part

569
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,279
Speaker 1: the Titans have played in getting the draft here. And

570
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:49,279
Speaker 1: he'd be very proud, very proud. Sure, keeping along those

571
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,439
Speaker 1: same lines, can you tell all the fans just what

572
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 1: the Oilers and the connection to your dad and that

573
00:35:55,400 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: history means to you and your family. You know, the

574
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:07,879
Speaker 1: Oilers first season was nineteen sixty and so I'll let

575
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 1: them do the our fans do the map. But I

576
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: was six years old, so my entire life, this is

577
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: what we did. This is our Sundays. You know, I

578
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 1: heard about football from being six years old on. Didn't

579
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 1: know what it was what we were doing, but I

580
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 1: just thought it was really fun going on Sunday and

581
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: running around the stadium because you could back then, Yeah,

582
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 1: and I'd have my little pennant and I wanted autographs

583
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: at the end, and you know, it was just it

584
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: was a really fun upbringing. And you know, if at

585
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,880
Speaker 1: my doll he said, my dad did a lot of

586
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: work at his breakfast table and he'd be sitting there

587
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 1: every morning and you'd hear all the conversations. And you know,

588
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 1: I was that super fan as a kid all the

589
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,920
Speaker 1: way through college. He was not one that thought, oh,

590
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 1: I'm going to bring my girl into it. It was

591
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,319
Speaker 1: a different time. I don't have any hard feelings there.

592
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 1: It's just what I wanted to do. He was very

593
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:10,000
Speaker 1: supportive of but it didn't enter his mind that his

594
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: daughters would be in the football business. And so you know,

595
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 1: it was just but it was oilers all the way.

596
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 1: And you know, we went through the bomb and the

597
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,879
Speaker 1: love you blew and all that excitement, and we all

598
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 1: wore silly cowboy hats with feathers everywhere. And I look

599
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:35,439
Speaker 1: back and I'm just like, hide those pictures, please. But

600
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 1: it was a lot of fun. So you know, everybody

601
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:41,280
Speaker 1: looks back on their life and that's where the oilers

602
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:46,760
Speaker 1: are for me, and that's where I, you know, reconnected

603
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 1: with our players, our old oiler players, because I felt

604
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 1: like when we moved here and it was nobody's fault,

605
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 1: but we didn't do enough to bring the history with us.

606
00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 1: We should have tried to do more than have them

607
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 1: show up at a reunion because it you know, our

608
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 1: fans just didn't know enough about it. But it is

609
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: our history, and I think they're starting to get it.

610
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: That witness all the I think a lot of people

611
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: got upset when they wanted the Texans wanted to wear

612
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 1: our throwback jerseys. I know somebody who get upset who me, Yeah,

613
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:28,799
Speaker 1: like I said, it was just no. I knew if

614
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: I let that happen, he'd find a way to like

615
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 1: lightening strike me because in a way, and you know,

616
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: so I don't want to. I want the fans to

617
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 1: understand our history if it's intriguing to them, which I

618
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 1: hope it will be. As we go along, we're going

619
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,799
Speaker 1: to do more and more. I hope they, you know,

620
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 1: will bring it to their heart and at least give

621
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 1: it a you know, a try. And I think they're

622
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 1: doing that. I think they're doing that. I mean, Nashville

623
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: has enough history with the Titans now that it's not

624
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 1: a competition. It's not a competition, it can be secure.

625
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: I mean, we've got Javone and Steve Eddie and Frank

626
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 1: and and all of Chris Johnson and all of the

627
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 1: memories was an oiler too, that's exactly right. Yeah, and

628
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: had lots of friends, the Bruce Matthews of the World's Overlap,

629
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 1: the Mike Munchett's Overlap. So but I think there's enough

630
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 1: time now that the time is right. The time is

631
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 1: right because this is the sixtieth year. Yes, wow, the

632
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: sixtieth year of this franchise. That's great now, I know that.

633
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 1: Um that I get a lot of questions are we

634
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: going to wear the throwbacks? And I personally would like to,

635
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: but I don't want to go there until we can

636
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: have another helmet with it, right because right now you

637
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 1: get one helmet. Hopefully there are enough teams that are

638
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 1: going to want to change that rule that we can

639
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,000
Speaker 1: have to helmet every once in a while. Yeah yeah,

640
00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: well like twice twice a year. And I think maybe

641
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 1: we're getting closer to that. But that uniform without that

642
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 1: helmet just wouldn't make sense. It wouldn't make sense. So

643
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: you know, I already called up and we've had the

644
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:17,839
Speaker 1: big conversation with in the league about it and We're

645
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: just gonna have to hope at some point. And I

646
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: think now they're getting enough helmets, you know, in the beginning,

647
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,680
Speaker 1: there were just a few. Well, the college us are

648
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,400
Speaker 1: doing I know, every game, and people love game. I

649
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 1: think it's coming. So when they do, I think it'd

650
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 1: be fun. I think it'd be fun even if you

651
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 1: could do different variations of our new helmet. I mean,

652
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 1: if you did like a silver like they do the

653
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 1: teams do the shiny. I mean, I don't like changing

654
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: every game, sorry Marcus with Oregon. I don't like doing

655
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,759
Speaker 1: it every game, but every once in a while it's

656
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 1: kind of cool. It's really cool game and definitely the

657
00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:01,319
Speaker 1: throwbacks at least once, you know. And so when they

658
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,719
Speaker 1: do that helmet change, which I hope it's coming, I

659
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,839
Speaker 1: know the teams that want to do it. We just

660
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:11,680
Speaker 1: hope that the commissioner will come around to the idea

661
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,360
Speaker 1: that the time has come, which would be really a

662
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,399
Speaker 1: fun thing. Maybe you can hit him with that next week. Well,

663
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: he's watching Nashville three hundred thousand people. Yeah, you're welcome, commissioner.

664
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,319
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'm all over the road. I apologize. Oh no,

665
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,800
Speaker 1: this is pretty excited you're here. Well, thank you to

666
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,240
Speaker 1: questions you're just pouring you they are, they're going crazy.

667
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 1: But I want to ask you a question about this offseason.

668
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:42,879
Speaker 1: How different has it been than in previous years with

669
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: how calm it's been. It's nice, isn't it. Yeah, it's nice. Well,

670
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:54,280
Speaker 1: I think, you know, consistency is going to help us. Now.

671
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 1: I know Arthur Smith is our new OC, but you

672
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:02,360
Speaker 1: know he's been around these guys. This isn't like bringing

673
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 1: a completely new person in. I know they're keeping a

674
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 1: lot of the same elements, but they get to put

675
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:13,359
Speaker 1: in the Arthur Smith parts, which is gonna be fun.

676
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 1: I'm really really looking forward to it, and I think

677
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 1: it'll be good for Marcus and good for the offense,

678
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 1: and I think it's going to be a good thing.

679
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 1: But I think the consistency, first off, is the major

680
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 1: thing that you know, everybody's gonna be on the same page.

681
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 1: We're not starting over completely. I'm so glad we have

682
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 1: deem P's back, and you know, I just think it's

683
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 1: a good thing to have calmness. Mike Vrabel's message this

684
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 1: offseason good too. Great. I bet when you heard that

685
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 1: you thought yes, because that's how do you see the

686
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:54,319
Speaker 1: whole organization and is that fair? Totally, totally it. You know,

687
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 1: it's one thing our first year that we were nine

688
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 1: to seven to be a good team, that was exciting.

689
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: Now we've been there for three years and we're like, okay,

690
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 1: we have to make the next step or you know

691
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,919
Speaker 1: that's really important, but how do you get there? And

692
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 1: we just all need to think. You know, you get

693
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 1: to great by working harder. You know, it doesn't just happen.

694
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 1: You can't keep doing whatever. You have to work at

695
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,799
Speaker 1: it and you have to get better. And I think

696
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:25,319
Speaker 1: that's where he was trying to go. That's where I've

697
00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: been trying to go with the organization. We all need

698
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 1: to do a better job, no matter what it is.

699
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,800
Speaker 1: It's one thing to be good, but to be great

700
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:37,719
Speaker 1: it just doesn't just you can't wave the wand you

701
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 1: have to put in a lot of hard work. And

702
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 1: Mike Rabell puts in the hard work and he's you know,

703
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 1: the players know they're going to have to put in

704
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,279
Speaker 1: that work too, and I think they want to and

705
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,360
Speaker 1: they're ready to make that next step. In one week

706
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: we start to add some pieces that will take us

707
00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 1: from good to great. What do you enjoy so much

708
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 1: about the ENFL Draft? Well, you know, I love to

709
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 1: build up to it because it's just so fun the

710
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 1: hope a team has and everybody's kind of in the

711
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 1: same position. And you know, you saw um last year.

712
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:20,120
Speaker 1: I mean to take Cleveland, I mean, with the moves

713
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 1: they made, they went from you know, kind of down

714
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: at the bottom too. Now they're being talked about and

715
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 1: so any team, you know, with some good drafts, they

716
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 1: can make that that jump. It's just you know, and

717
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,719
Speaker 1: so for the draft, for me, it's exciting, is exciting,

718
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:43,760
Speaker 1: Free agencies is exciting. I ask a couple of questions.

719
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 1: While I do that, let's see if we can wrap

720
00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:48,359
Speaker 1: up with a few more social media questions. So I'll

721
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:53,360
Speaker 1: give you a chance, I'll generate, I'll gather you, I'll ask.

722
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:59,280
Speaker 1: And what happened that brought everything together with the instant

723
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 1: replay review. There have been several really nice articles written

724
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: about how that came to be, and I'm fascinated to

725
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: know how impressed you were that everybody got together and

726
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 1: decided that it would be a good thing if pass

727
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:20,880
Speaker 1: interference were and no calls became reviewable. From your standpoint

728
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:25,000
Speaker 1: as an owner, in your four years. How impressive was

729
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:27,799
Speaker 1: that as a moment. Well, if you knew how hard

730
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,520
Speaker 1: it is to get all that group on one page

731
00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 1: on something this big, you would be like wow. But

732
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 1: I think when what happened in New Orleans happened and

733
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: I put myself in that position, I thought, oh gosh,

734
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,240
Speaker 1: if that had kept us out of the super Bowl.

735
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:50,280
Speaker 1: I mean, you talk about it, punch to your gut.

736
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:55,760
Speaker 1: I mean I think everyone thought the way I thought, Wow,

737
00:45:56,400 --> 00:46:00,200
Speaker 1: they wouldn't want to be for their team and their fans,

738
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,360
Speaker 1: and the league doesn't want that to ever happen again.

739
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 1: And so I think, you know, a little empathy there

740
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 1: went a long way across the board for everybody to

741
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 1: kind of think, wow, that's we just don't ever want

742
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:18,320
Speaker 1: that to happen again, something that a game that big

743
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:22,480
Speaker 1: to be decided like that, Did you have to be convinced? No,

744
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 1: you were already on board with me? Yeah, because that

745
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:29,239
Speaker 1: was my thought. I mean I listened to everybody, and

746
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,319
Speaker 1: I guess if there had been enough good arguments to

747
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 1: go the other way, I might have listened, But I

748
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 1: just kept thinking, what have they been us? And your

749
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 1: Dad's logic two is the one that I've always quoted

750
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 1: about instant replay, which is, if you can make something right,

751
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,080
Speaker 1: why wouldn't you. It was so him. I mean that

752
00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,200
Speaker 1: was just so black and white, right, yeah, yeah, because

753
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 1: he was for instant replay and a lot of the

754
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: old timers were not, but he was because he said,

755
00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 1: if you could fix it, why wouldn't you fix it?

756
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: You remember the Mic Renfrod, Well, it's gonna bring up

757
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: that you. I mean, you had an instance into in

758
00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:07,440
Speaker 1: that history and that wouldn't have necessarily and the man

759
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 1: who might have might have gone, or the man very

760
00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:14,760
Speaker 1: good official from right here in Nashville made the call

761
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 1: that Mike Renfro did not catch that pass and certainly

762
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 1: changed the course of that game, that game that we're

763
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:23,799
Speaker 1: giving you a chance to go to the super Bow.

764
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 1: It did, it did, so I'm sure that had a

765
00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 1: lot to do with the way my dad felt. Once again,

766
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:35,560
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes we always say, oh, it's okay, if

767
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 1: it happens to you, it's okay. But me so, you know,

768
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:43,160
Speaker 1: I mean, when when you put yourself in that position

769
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: to think we would have gone to this might have

770
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 1: gone to the super Bowl, I mean a good chance

771
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:52,880
Speaker 1: or New Orleans might have gone. I mean it hurts,

772
00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 1: that's sure, it does. And and overall, just last point

773
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,920
Speaker 1: on this before Amy takes it back to social because

774
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:03,759
Speaker 1: she's getting a ton I working hard. The whole thing

775
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 1: about everybody working together and everybody coming together. That's a

776
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:11,840
Speaker 1: really good thing for the NFL and for everybody associated

777
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:15,400
Speaker 1: to have that moment where the public sees it and

778
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 1: the media fans, right, it looks like you're it certainly

779
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 1: appears that everybody is plugged in, which is always a

780
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:27,359
Speaker 1: good thing for your fan base to see it is

781
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:32,359
Speaker 1: it is, I mean, it's that was that those were

782
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 1: rules that everybody was for and everybody had good reason

783
00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 1: why they were for it, and so it you know,

784
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:44,839
Speaker 1: it was a cohesive decision, and so I think I

785
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,319
Speaker 1: think we all should be proud that we got that

786
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:50,839
Speaker 1: done that fast. Usually wild changes like this they kind

787
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,839
Speaker 1: of get presented and they get tabled, and you know,

788
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 1: they come back and maybe you know, they get tabled.

789
00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 1: This was like kind of almost a slam tonk. I mean,

790
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 1: last last one, because Amy's still writing. When you did

791
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,880
Speaker 1: the first interview with me for Titans Online dot Com,

792
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,000
Speaker 1: you said you just wanted to be one of the

793
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,759
Speaker 1: guys that was how you described yourself in terms of

794
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 1: the Owners. You're really not one of the guys anymore.

795
00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 1: You are somebody who has a much bigger profile than

796
00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 1: what you did four years ago. The media knows you,

797
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 1: the fans know you. Your fans certainly know you. What

798
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:30,279
Speaker 1: are you comfortable with that? Is that something that you have?

799
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:32,960
Speaker 1: I mean, you feel good about taking more of a

800
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 1: lead uncertain things? Well, in the beginning, you know, I

801
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 1: was a complete newbie, so I was very uncomfortable in

802
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 1: the spotlight. I still enjoyed interacting with fans and whatnot,

803
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:50,799
Speaker 1: but as far as getting up at the owners meeting

804
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:53,759
Speaker 1: and speaking and that sort of thing, you know, I

805
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 1: was definitely uncomfortable in that because you just kind of

806
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 1: have to earn your stripes. You do. And but now,

807
00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:09,360
Speaker 1: you know, I don't think about how I come, you know,

808
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 1: how it looks and what my profile is. Now, I

809
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,279
Speaker 1: just in me and I just go out there and

810
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 1: you know, if the profile is raised, well that's good.

811
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm comfortable with it. But you're done. Well,

812
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:28,040
Speaker 1: I have some questions here. It's kind of a lightning round,

813
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 1: so okay, good up. The first one is what matchup

814
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 1: in the twenty nineteen season. Do you have circled on

815
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 1: your calendar? Which one are you looking forward to? Well,

816
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:47,239
Speaker 1: I think probably the Indianapolis Gag. I think we have

817
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:51,839
Speaker 1: a little We've got some I have some payback feelings there.

818
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:56,600
Speaker 1: I think we all do. Yeah, I'm really looking forward

819
00:50:56,640 --> 00:51:00,239
Speaker 1: to that, really looking forward. Here's another one from one

820
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 1: He says, every single offseason we've seen you make changes

821
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 1: or upgrades to the facility or the stadium. Are there

822
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:11,640
Speaker 1: any changes or upgrades happening this offseason? Well, here at

823
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:16,040
Speaker 1: the facility, we're putting in a new lunch room and

824
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 1: the players, you know, they eat and coaches eat a

825
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:23,240
Speaker 1: lot of meals here, and we will have a new

826
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:29,560
Speaker 1: chef and everybody's really really excited about. You know. The

827
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:34,359
Speaker 1: past was we did not have a kitchen capable of

828
00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 1: cooking all the meals, and so they had it had

829
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:40,200
Speaker 1: to be brought in, which was very difficult over the years,

830
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:42,520
Speaker 1: and this has kind of been in the works for

831
00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 1: a while. But you know, nutrition is huge, and we

832
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 1: have a lot of vegans and we were Derek Morgan's

833
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 1: wife was bringing in the vegan meals and now we'll

834
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:54,719
Speaker 1: be able to take care of all that, but you

835
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:57,399
Speaker 1: know the old days, it was, you know, bring them

836
00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:02,520
Speaker 1: in triple cheeseburgers, and you know, back in my dad's day,

837
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,920
Speaker 1: and now it's it's quite sophisticated on what you want

838
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:09,359
Speaker 1: your players eating. So that's a huge thing this year.

839
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:12,360
Speaker 1: Matthew would like to know, do you have a favorite

840
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 1: player of all time? All of them? She's running for

841
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 1: off if you really never I promise I'm not putting

842
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:30,439
Speaker 1: mad hat on for sure. You know, I think kind

843
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:37,480
Speaker 1: of each era I had favorites, right so you know, um,

844
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,359
Speaker 1: back in the Oiler day, you know, of course I

845
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,200
Speaker 1: love Robert Brazil and we have a closeness now after

846
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,320
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame last year, I just I love Robert.

847
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:49,319
Speaker 1: He's definitely one of my Oiler favorites. And you know

848
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 1: I loved Earl and Dan so Billy White Shoes. He's

849
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:57,320
Speaker 1: the nicest man in the world. And he still looks

850
00:52:57,320 --> 00:53:01,760
Speaker 1: like he's twenty five years old. It's amazing. It's amazing.

851
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:06,840
Speaker 1: So um that era there, and to get into the Titans,

852
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 1: you know, I love Steve, love Eddie, you know it,

853
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:16,400
Speaker 1: just love Frank. I mean these guys they were our heroes, right, Yeah,

854
00:53:16,440 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 1: there's too many to pict that's it, just yeah, I

855
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:23,680
Speaker 1: get it. Okay, here's the final question I have from

856
00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:26,640
Speaker 1: social media. Walker would like to know what can we

857
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 1: do to get more women in football? Well, I think

858
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:35,399
Speaker 1: we need to keep an open mind and as I said,

859
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:38,440
Speaker 1: if you're qualified, whether if it's on the business side,

860
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:42,960
Speaker 1: I mean, our CFO Janine Kaufman's a woman. We have

861
00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 1: lots of women in in our franchise here, so we

862
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 1: need to all keep an open mind and hopefully, you know,

863
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:57,520
Speaker 1: we'll see more coaches, more trainers, more scouts more. I mean,

864
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:03,360
Speaker 1: I think women can do anything. I agree, you both agree,

865
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:08,359
Speaker 1: and I'm mount uber. Uh. You have given us way

866
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,839
Speaker 1: too much time and I don't know any other owner

867
00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:13,319
Speaker 1: who would do this. So this is and to be

868
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,920
Speaker 1: able to take questions from the fans. And uh, I

869
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:19,399
Speaker 1: mean to build this studio. This was something you did

870
00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:23,359
Speaker 1: last year and giving us the opportunity to reach our

871
00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:28,960
Speaker 1: fans in a different way. Um, we're very thankful. Well,

872
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:33,080
Speaker 1: thank you. It's it's it's really enjoyable to see you know,

873

Speaker 1: Jim Wyatt here coming in last night and doing the

874
00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:39,239
Speaker 1: thing with the schedule and the immediacy that we have

875
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,239
Speaker 1: a chance to provide in this way. It's changed a

876
00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:45,920
Speaker 1: lot in twenty two years for me, so I've had

877
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:48,279
Speaker 1: but it's better. You know, some people say about the

878
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,719
