Okay, let's spring in larry a 0:00:24.160 --> 0:00:29.080 valuable piece up front on that Jets defensive line, Legite Douzable. 0:00:29.840 --> 0:00:35.200 Thanks Jay, what's happening? Hey? Doing good? How you guys going? Dude? 0:00:35.240 --> 0:00:40.400 I asked Sheldon richardson this after the game? What happened 0:00:40.400 --> 0:00:46.680 at halftime? You guys were a different team after intermission. Yeah, 0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:48.600 you know, Toll talked to us a little bit. We 0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:51.559 knew we weren't paying up to our standards. We used 0:00:51.560 --> 0:00:53.599 to turning the ball over and not turning the ball over, 0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:55.480 and that's something we didn't do in the first half, 0:00:55.520 --> 0:00:57.960 and you know, guys were disappointed. Uh, you left the 0:00:58.000 --> 0:01:00.320 game in the veteran's hands. Where a veterans head, he said, 0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:02.920 team and guys who started decided to go out there 0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.120 and make plays. Man that's all it all came down to. 0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:08.160 You know. It's interesting. Tom Bowls has been talking about 0:01:08.160 --> 0:01:10.880 you all season and he's been talking about how you've 0:01:10.920 --> 0:01:12.640 been playing on both sides of the line. You've been 0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:15.440 playing different positions, and I know you love doing that 0:01:15.480 --> 0:01:18.880 because it shows off your versatility. But as you as 0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:20.479 you found out that your role was going to change 0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:22.520 a little bit, how exciting was that? What was the 0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:25.640 challenge and learning the different roles in different schemes that 0:01:25.680 --> 0:01:27.640 you have with top Bowls now, I mean it was 0:01:27.680 --> 0:01:31.119 really exciting. I probably myself on being a versatile defferensive lineman, 0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:33.800 being able to play alongside the whole line. And uh, 0:01:33.920 --> 0:01:35.960 he pulled me in his office before camp and told 0:01:35.959 --> 0:01:37.920 me that they're gonna move me around a little bit, 0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:39.880 and I was excited. Man. That's that's why I love 0:01:39.920 --> 0:01:42.039 to do. I like to be in multiple positions. I 0:01:42.040 --> 0:01:44.440 think the unique thing about our defense is that we 0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:46.280 have so many versus tile. I let it guys that 0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:48.720 you can were interchangeable and so it's hard to tell 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:51.640 where somebody's gonna line up at any different given time. 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:54.360 I think you might have surprised the Redskins there early 0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:57.480 on in the game with how many of four men 0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:02.080 of affronts you guys employed? Uh, how excited do you 0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:04.320 get during the week to see the game plans that 0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:07.640 these guys are coming up with. And um, speaking of 0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:11.399 of both Todd Bowls and Casey Rodgers, Yeah, it's it's 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:12.960 never the same. I think a lot of people were 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:14.880 saying after the coach game they were so surprised that 0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:16.840 we were lining up in four three a lot. You know, 0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:18.799 last week we did a little bit more three four, 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:20.800 and then this week more again of the four three. 0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:23.040 The thing is, it's just fun with his defense. You 0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:25.240 never know what the defensive scheme is gonna be the 0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:27.359 weekend and week out, And I think that's a great 0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:29.239 thing for us because it's hard for officer teams. The 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:33.360 key on us is what's also has gotta be fun 0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:36.840 is that your ability to rush the passer with your 0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:39.560 other guys along that line. Mohammad Wilkerson, they got shown 0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:43.160 richardson back. Uh, you know those guys and you getting 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:46.040 a chance to rush the quarterback, which is what defensive 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:49.320 lineman just love to do. Pressure on that. Just your 0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:52.120 thoughts about the different angles in the different schemes that 0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:54.000 you can do that with. Yeah. The thing is we 0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:57.000 have so many different guys I can play, um one time, 0:02:57.040 --> 0:02:59.280 it could be me Leo Moor shouting out there. It 0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:03.000 could be me snacks Sheldon or bowling out there. I 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:05.160 mean the thing is, like I said, we're so versatile 0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:07.799 that it's a great thing for Our defensive line is 0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:09.960 the deepest defensive line I've been on, and we enjoy 0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:11.880 getting after the quarterback. I think it's a lot of 0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:13.880 people don't know if we challenge each other more than 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:16.839 probably offensive lines or other teams challenge does. Um. We're 0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:18.920 always at each other's neck, like I ain't heard your 0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.000 name and I know while you're gonna make a play today, 0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:23.399 like what you're doing. So that's a great thing about 0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:26.400 our defensive line. We're very competitive. How emotional was that 0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:29.200 do you think for Sheldon getting back there with you 0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:32.440 guys on the field. Oh, that's great. Anytime he's out 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:34.519 on the field, you just feel the energy. The guy 0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:36.600 plays with a high motor. He has a lot of energy. 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:38.960 He's always smiling and having a good time. So it 0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:40.440 was great to have him back in the fold and 0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:42.920 to get out there and get that continuity back with him, 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:44.920 you know, It was just as Eric and I was 0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:46.880 talking about. It was just such a difference in that 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:48.360 second half. But I want to go back to the 0:03:48.400 --> 0:03:50.680 first half and just how you guys were able to 0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:53.280 minimize the damage even though you had to turnovers except 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.680 for one opportunity you kept watching the audiend Jones. Yeah, 0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:57.840 we pride ourselves on being able to stop them wherever 0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:00.080 they get the ball, and that's something we emphasized all 0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:02.200 week go on. No matter where they office gets the ball, 0:04:02.480 --> 0:04:04.600 our jobbers to protect that goal line and hold them 0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:06.800 to you know, field goal to temps if offense does 0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:08.960 happen to turn the ball over. You know, we actually 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:11.080 gave up one touchdown earlier. We were mad about that, 0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:12.960 and we're actually able to hold them to you know, 0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:14.400 to field goal to Temps. I mean the guy I 0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:16.720 think made with a fifty four yard field go So, 0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:18.880 I mean we did a good job there, but we 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:20.840 would like to get that that one drive back if 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:22.440 we could, and not give up seven and hold them 0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:25.120 the three. When you guys are on then and you're 0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:28.600 preparing uh for your next series out there, are you 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:34.039 able to enjoy what's happening offensively right now with Chris 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:37.640 Ivory and Brandon Marshall taking over games. Well, not right away, 0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:39.120 because of course, when you come out the field, you 0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:41.480 gotta do adjustments and see what you know the offense 0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:43.880 was giving you and what looks we had. That way 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.520 we can moving forward, you know, make adjustments on the run. 0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:48.760 You know, after a while the offense is driving for 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:50.280 a little bit. Then we get to actually sit back, 0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:52.520 relaxing and actually look at the jumbo trying to see 0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:56.200 Chris Ivory running guys over, Brandon making spectacular catches. But 0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:57.840 right when we come up the field, we don't we 0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:00.400 don't get to really get to watch the offense. This 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:03.480 locker room seems special. This locker room, the guys, they 0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:05.520 just seemed to like each other. They seem to get 0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:07.800 along and listen, that's not easy with the big locker 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:09.839 room where guys you don't get on each other's nerves 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:12.560 and stuff like that during the season. Is that what 0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:14.680 makes it that way? Why is it just like such 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:16.440 a good camaraderie in that. I just think it's a 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:18.359 mutual respect that the guys have for each other in 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:20.800 the locker room. Another thing is, in the past we've 0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:23.680 had younger teams. This team is really veteran heavy set. 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:25.359 I think I have a lot to do with it. 0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:27.320 You know, Todd already said he was gonna give the 0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:30.280 veterans the locker room, and I think everybody is taking 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:32.760 his cue from that and everybody. You know, if everybody 0:05:32.800 --> 0:05:34.359 doesn't like each other, we all respect each other and 0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:36.640 we love playing with each other. So I think you 0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:37.960 can see that on the field when we go out 0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:39.920 there on Sundays. You know the guys that you're living right, 0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:41.919 he has your back no matter what. I know you 0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:44.160 have a lot of leaders in that locker room, and 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:47.040 I'm around there every day. Who do you point to 0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:51.640 and say, hey, those guys are kinda the people we 0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:55.240 look up to around here to set the tone. Well, 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:57.360 I mean there's so many. There's so many veterans. I 0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:02.360 would say vas Brandon Marshall, fits Crow, I tried to 0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:06.479 be a guy myself, Um, David Harris, definitely, Calvin Pace 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:10.400 and so many veteran guys, Willie Cologne, um, the britishall Mango. 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:13.280 So many guys that you can feed off, Guys that 0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:14.640 you can look up to when you if you're a 0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:17.880 younger guy to follow around in the locker room. Communication 0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:20.120 is always something you guys talk about week after week 0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:23.680 after week after week. How is that communication? How much 0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:26.080 better hasn't gotten and what's the challenge to keep it 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:29.400 at that level? Yeah? I think we've taken numerous steps 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:31.680 since the beginning of O t a s and training camp. 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.920 You know, when you learn a new defenses, there's gonna 0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:36.600 be some wrinkles that guys aren't used to and communication 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:39.039 is key and that's something we've talked about. Like I said, 0:06:39.040 --> 0:06:42.960 since O t A's offseason workouts camp and our communication, 0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:44.680 I feel it's gotten better and better as the week 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:47.160 gone on. We still haven't. I don't think we've gotten 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:49.240 to the peak where we need to be, but it's 0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:51.640 it's night and day from when we first started learning 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:54.360 a new defense. What are you most proud of? Your 0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:58.240 number one in red zone defense, number two and takeaways 0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:05.160 with number one in overall defense, number one in points allowed, 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:08.800 what are you most proud of? Uh, that's a hard 0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:12.200 one to us. We've really emphasized takeaway, So it would 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.560 have to be a top between takeaway and points allowed, 0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:16.800 because if you hold an opponents a low points then 0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:19.280 you're gonna most likely win the game. But if you're 0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:21.600 you know, plus three in the takeaway category, you have 0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:24.560 chance to win the game. So I think those two 0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:26.000 would be at the top of my list. Do you 0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:29.360 think it was gonna all come together so quickly? Because 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:32.840 there were a number of pieces added here this offseason, 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:37.280 whether they're veterans or not. As Antonio Camardi sends us 0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:42.120 some messages out there, I'm not really surprised the veterans 0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:44.200 that we got brought in. There were guys that are smart, 0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:46.840 they can think, guys that have been on winning teams. 0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:50.080 You know, we brought crow back, Rivers back, Brandon Marshalls 0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:51.680 played at the top of this league. The one of 0:07:51.680 --> 0:07:53.960 the top receivers for the longest fits is a guy 0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:55.880 that's played a lot of years in this league. So 0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:59.040 I'm not really too surprised that the communication factor came 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:01.480 in as quickly as it did, just because of the 0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:05.120 pieces that we brought in. Eric mentioned Christopher christ Ivery earlier. 0:08:05.440 --> 0:08:08.640 You go against this offensive line every day. What's the 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.000 difference in this line this year from previous years? They 0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:13.400 just seem to be more physical more what's the difference. Yeah, 0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:15.680 I think it's just the scheme that we put in 0:08:15.800 --> 0:08:17.680 this year, and I think it's suited better for Chris 0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:20.880 Ivory as far as downhill counters powers. It's a more 0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:23.200 physical brand of football, and guys like Willie Colonne are 0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:26.040 built for that. Um, guys like Brno Jacomini built for 0:08:26.120 --> 0:08:28.160 stuff like that. You know, we got winners that's been playing. 0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:30.680 He's built for something like that, a physical run game, 0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:33.640 not so much far, not so much zone schemes and 0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:36.679 and everything like that. It's it's we're we're right here, 0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:38.959 we're lining up, we're gonna run power stop us. We're 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:40.839 gonna get four yards four yards, and we're gonna pop 0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:43.560 one for twenty something yards. And I think those guys, uh, 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.240 they love that. I mean on run days, those guys 0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:48.199 are juice up man that they love to get after it. 0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:50.800 And it's just it's just I'm I'm so glad that 0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:53.880 everybody is getting to see Chris Ivory nationwide. The guys, 0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:55.480 to me has been one of the best running backs 0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:57.360 in the league. He's quiet guys with a lot of 0:08:57.360 --> 0:08:58.960 people don't know about him. But it's it's just good 0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:00.839 that he's finally getting a little bit recognition because he 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:04.480 deserves it. U leg you know what this week is 0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:07.440 gonna be like obviously a New York team, the Jets 0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:10.400 going to play the Patriots, agreeing to white four and 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:12.760 one so far this season of the funding Super Bowl 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:18.719 champions five and old. But I love the approach your 0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:21.080 head coach is taken and you guys have followed suit. 0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:24.920 What do you think about what Todd said today? Winning 0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:28.760 isn't going to make us, Losing isn't going to break 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:31.360 us exactly. I mean I would say in past that 0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:34.439 we've got wrapped up into this game. Everybody knows the 0:09:34.480 --> 0:09:37.040 why people we have with those guys. Um that dislike 0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:39.760 we might have for those guys, but Todds had it best. 0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:42.160 It's it's the next game. This is round six for us. 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:44.160 We're just trying to stack wins right now. That's where 0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:46.400 it comes down to. Um, it'll be great, you know, 0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:47.960 to get this division win, But like you said, it's 0:09:48.000 --> 0:09:49.959 not gonna ruin our season. It's not gonna make our season. 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:51.880 We win this, We're not like, oh we're going to 0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:53.640 the super Bowl. We lose this, We're not gonna drop 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:55.440 our heads and be like we're not going to the playoffs. 0:09:55.800 --> 0:09:57.520 So I think it's just the next game. And you know, 0:09:57.640 --> 0:09:59.599 they're a good team. We're a good team and it 0:09:59.640 --> 0:10:02.000 should be fly on Sunday. They're not going to show 0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:04.040 you anything you haven't seen, right, You've seen You've seen 0:10:04.120 --> 0:10:06.360 a lot of them over the years. Is there a 0:10:06.520 --> 0:10:09.640 danger of trying to outthink them in the sense of, Okay, 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:11.640 this is what they normally do, so if they do this, 0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:13.640 we know we should do something like that because it's 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:15.320 such a on the point that you see so often. 0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:16.840 I think that's what a lot of people do when 0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:19.040 they play them too. They tend to overthink it. I mean, 0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:21.480 we know that Gronk is gonna get his plays. You 0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:23.000 know they have a good running back in Lewis. This 0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:26.760 year he was playing outstanding Um al Mondola, Amadola and 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:29.920 Aldam and a Growth both great receivers. Um, you just 0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:32.040 can't overthink it. Usually I go out there and play football. 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:33.600 I mean, you've been playing this game your whole life. 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:35.439 You know what to do once you get on that field. Yeah, 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:39.080 there's such a healthy respect there. Uh. But I really 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:41.559 liked Larry what I heard out of these guys in 0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:44.560 the locker room today and what leg is telling us 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:47.000 right now, and Antonio Cormari is gonna follow up with it. 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:51.480 In a few moments. As the general feeling is from 0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:54.839 Eric Decker said today, we haven't played a complete game yet, 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:58.359 and we have a lot of corrections to make. Offensively. 0:10:58.440 --> 0:11:02.360 You can point to the turnover special teams wise unfortunately, 0:11:02.840 --> 0:11:05.880 uh give up a touchdown late on the block punt. 0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:10.240 There are areas where this team can say, hey, we 0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:14.000 can improve. Exactly what Decker said, we haven't played a 0:11:14.040 --> 0:11:16.679 complete game yet, so it's scary to think that would. Uh, 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:19.240 we're not having playing a complete game yet. We're four 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.679 and one still, you know, so like the sky's a 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:23.320 limit for this team. We still got a long way 0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:24.840 to go. We're just, like I said, we're just trying 0:11:24.840 --> 0:11:26.959 to stack wins right now. And that's what's the most 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:30.000 important thing. Now that you were at the NFL boot 0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:33.920 camp broadcasting, does that change how you see the media 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:35.559 since you're kind of going to be on the other 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:37.960 side of it, How does that change? Do you appreciate 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:39.679 more of what the media does and and and have 0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:42.520 got the better understanding of it? Definitely have more of 0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:44.920 appreciation of what you guys do day in and day out. 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:46.920 I mean we went me and Crow actually went to 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:54.600 the broadcast boot camp together and literally man fifteen hour 0:11:54.760 --> 0:12:01.160 days just research, research, research, research, research, research, and remembering 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:04.160 statistics and and knowing what your next bullet point is 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:07.079 gonna be is. It was an amazing experience. I think 0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:10.880 anybody trying to get into broadcasting, journalism or anything should 0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:13.240 definitely do it. Are the former players out there that 0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:16.920 you watch broadcasting right now and say, hey, they're doing 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:20.360 a really good job. And even if they didn't play 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:24.439 there at the Pinnacle, they're very good in this profession. Yeah, 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:26.640 there's actually a couple of guys I try to watch. Um, 0:12:27.120 --> 0:12:29.280 I think my guy that I that I try to 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:31.520 watch this. You know, Chris Carter has done it pretty 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:34.040 on a high level for the last couple of years. Um, 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:36.960 a guy that didn't play football. It was a great 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:39.000 rest in peace. Stewart Scott was a guy he used 0:12:39.000 --> 0:12:41.079 to watch day in and day out. The guy was 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:43.839 amazing at what he did. And uh, you know, James 0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:45.960 Brown is a host, but he's also another guy while 0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:49.079 he's an amazing guy. Yes, Stuart Scott, god rust the 0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:51.400 Soul was a guy who was able to combine the 0:12:51.520 --> 0:12:55.240 information with entertainment exactly so you weren't bored by sitting 0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:57.559 that throwing numbers at you because he presented the numbers 0:12:57.559 --> 0:13:01.440 in such a way that it was like wow, really exactly. Yeah, 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:03.439 he made it fun for everybody to watch, you know, 0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:06.280 just highlights. You know, some people, you know, get bored 0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:08.079 after watching the same thing over and over game, but 0:13:08.160 --> 0:13:09.719 he made it so fun and exciting. It was like 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:13.840 watching a drama TV show. So so yeah, like I said, 0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:15.319 rest in pieces stories guy, but he was. He was 0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:17.800 one of the best that ever did it. Um On 0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:19.679 the bye week you got a chance to go home 0:13:19.720 --> 0:13:23.199 to Florida. You had your number retired at your high school. 0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:25.480 Can you tell us about that experience. Yeah, it was 0:13:25.520 --> 0:13:29.080 a great experience.
