1 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: Do you guys know me? I mean, what did you want? 2 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: You know, what do you expect me walking around the 3 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: high school in my varsity letterman's jacket is acting like 4 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:17,040 Speaker 1: just shoving kids into the locker like it is my 5 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 1: kind of celebration. But I don't have to do anything. 6 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 1: It's not embarrassing. You literally just stand there. I mean 7 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: it's perfect for me. Yeah, I mean, I'm like, I'll 8 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: grab a pumpkin beer. I'll probably get through three quarters 9 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: of it and say, man, this isn't that good? Like 10 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: why am I drinking this? I'm not answering that question. 11 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,520 Speaker 1: Welcome into the Lambs. This is a great day, Garrett. 12 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 1: It's a wonderful day. For the past several weeks, months, really, 13 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 1: pretty much since episode one, people have asked when you're 14 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: gonna get Joe Flacco on the podcasts? Very true, and 15 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: today is the day. We are happy to be joined 16 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: by none other than quarterback Joe Flacco. Joe finally got 17 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: you on the podcast. The listeners have been waiting for 18 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 1: a long time. Pressure Yeah, why now? Why did we? 19 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: How did we get you? You came on to me 20 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: called weeks ago, and I mean maybe a week and 21 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 1: a half ago. And said, hey, how about I to 22 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh and Cleveland game. We'll get you on. I said, 23 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: all right, I've been I've been dodging you for like 24 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: four or five weeks now, So I guess I feel 25 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: bad enough after two months of avoided, of avoiding, that 26 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: I can finally do it. Guilt a little bit of 27 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: a guilt trip. We were convinced that the reason is 28 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: that there's something called the podcast bump. So some of 29 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: the guys who have come on here and it came on, 30 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: caught like ten passes the next game. Tommy Jurden is 31 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: playing great. Tucker hasn't missed a kick since he came 32 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: on the podcasts the kick yet anyway, don't get don't 33 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: don't have something to do with it that I wouldn't 34 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: If I would have known that, I would have came 35 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: on the first week exactly. That's what I'm saying. We 36 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: should have. Let you know. I just want you to know. 37 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: First touchdown you throw against Dallas on Sunday, make and 38 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 1: I are going to be the press box just taking 39 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: all the credit for you guys. Nice point up to 40 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: us so a mannequin challenge. Speaking of celebrations after touchdowns 41 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: here did you get crap from your family like you anticipated? Afterwards? Um, 42 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: I think my sister asked me what kind of language 43 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: can be easier? Um? No, I think I think my 44 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: sister asked me, like, what the heck were you doing? 45 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: A couple other people did too, Um, a little bit 46 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: of crap. I was at a wedding Saturday night and 47 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: one of my brothers said that I forget what I said, 48 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: And he said, way after what you did in the 49 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: game on Sunday on Thursday night, you're not allowed to 50 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: say anything. And he was talking about that, like critique 51 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: his dance moves or something like, yeah, I forget, Well, 52 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: I forget what it was about. But yeah, they definitely 53 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: wanted to make fun of me a little bit. Not 54 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: as bad as I thought it was. It was going 55 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: to be. It's kind of funny. I mean, I did 56 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: a mannequin challenge type thing, but it's it's kind of 57 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: it's kind of tough when it's only one person doing it. 58 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: You know, you don't you don't have a guy with 59 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: a camera walking through the walking through the whole scene. 60 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: You're kind of breathing really hard. That was the only thing. Yeah, see, 61 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 1: like that's what somebody said, my, my, my, I was 62 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: either too pumped up or what whatnot. So my fist 63 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: was still moving a little bit. Like a couple of 64 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: people have said different things to me. So are you 65 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: gonna keep doing it? No? No, no, no no. It 66 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: is my kind of celebration because I don't have to 67 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: do anything. It's not embarrassing. You literally just stand there. 68 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it's perfect for me. I think you kind 69 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 1: of gotta make it your things. Like last year, you 70 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: know how Cam Newton had the dab and then he 71 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: became known as the dabbing guy. I think you could 72 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: be known as a man could challenge guy. I don't 73 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: think so. If I could come up with some good ones, 74 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: then maybe I would do it. But we've already put 75 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: some time in the show and we've got some suggestions. 76 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: All right, here we go. You could freeze hoisting the Lombardy. Well, 77 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: that would be sweet, but I wouldn't do it until 78 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: I knew that that was that was in the bag. 79 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: So maybe when we're up yeah, but that doesn't count anymore. 80 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: Maybe when we're up three touchdowns this year in the 81 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, then I can do that one. Okay, alright, 82 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: what about doing the Ray Ray Dance. Just ah, I 83 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: see that, like, now that's board that. Now that's getting 84 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: on borderline. Um, I might not be good at transition 85 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: into the mannequin challenge of the Ray Lewis Dance, So 86 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: like that's almost me dancing. I don't feel like I 87 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: don't think I could feel comfortable doing that. And then 88 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: the last one, I think this would be the best. 89 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: You could just troll everybody that says you throw off 90 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: your back foot and just beat right holding it. I 91 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: could do that if I could probably hold it back 92 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: there pretty good. That would be the total troll moment. 93 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: I could kind of see you doing that, kind of 94 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: making fun of people. I don't think so. Well. What 95 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: about this because after earlier this year, sugs were the 96 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: elite T shirt with your face on it, uh, and 97 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: the rumor was that you wanted to wear it after 98 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: a game. There was someone who told us that you 99 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: were talking about wearing it postgame. No, I would never 100 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: actually do that, even if I was joking around about it, 101 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 1: I could not. I could never actually bring myself to 102 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: do it. Not have to beat Dallas Dallas best record 103 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: in the league. No, I couldn't do it. That's just 104 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 1: not right, All right, So I want to talk about 105 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: sideline demeanor because I feel like your sideline uh demeanor 106 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: or attitude gets dissect it more than I think anybody else, 107 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 1: and like it's it's worse for quarterbacks just in general. 108 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: But I think for you, everyone looks at everything you 109 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: do on the sidelines and says, why is he not 110 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 1: doing this? Why is he doing this or whatever? So 111 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: my question is, why don't you yell at everybody on 112 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: the sidelines because everyone knows that's the way that you 113 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: need to be a good quarterback. It's funny, Um, listen, 114 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: we're all out there doing a good doing our job 115 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: and doing the best weekend, and you know, there's a 116 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: time to do it. When uh, you know, guys are 117 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: blatantly messing up because they're doing the wrong thing here 118 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: and there, there's a time to get them fired up. Um, 119 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: you know. I mean, you could be yelling at him 120 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: in a good way, tell him, tell him that you know, 121 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: telling them good things, and just in a fired up matter. 122 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: And I think there's time and there's times for that, um. 123 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: But overall, I mean, it's it's really just for show. 124 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: And at the end of the day's a lot of 125 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: it doesn't really do too much besides say, look at me, 126 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: I'm getting these guys pumped up because I'm awesome. You 127 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: know That's That's just my take on it. So what 128 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: what's the closest that you've ever come to having like 129 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: a full blown argument slash fight on the sideline with what? 130 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 1: It's not with teammates usually, Um, Derek Mason, me and 131 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: him got into it a couple of times, but you 132 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: know I've got me and coaches have gotten into it before. Uh. 133 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: Like I said, as a quarterback, when I if I 134 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: was to go and get into it with somebody on 135 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: the sideline, another player, Um, I mean as a good leader, 136 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 1: I think there's there's a time and place for that 137 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: outside of the sideline. As a quarterback, I feel like 138 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: that's like, look at me, I didn't do anything wrong. 139 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,040 Speaker 1: It was him, you know, Like I have the power 140 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 1: to do that as a quarterback. Like as soon as 141 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 1: something goes wrong I can point at somebody and look 142 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: at them and say, you know, and and then everybody's thinking, 143 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 1: oh man, look at that, Like maybe the receiver was wrong. 144 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 1: You know that doesn't that's not me. I don't care 145 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: if he was wrong or it was me that was wrong. 146 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go do that because at the end 147 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: of the day, you can think it was me all 148 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: you want. I'm cool with that. And I think when 149 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: you when you get into a lot of confrontations on 150 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 1: the sideline with other players, it's insecurities coming out, you know, 151 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: saying hey, everybody, look, it wasn't me, and I just 152 00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: I could care less for that. Why are you so 153 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: cool that? I'm kind of curious, like you have an 154 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: uncanny ability to just be like whatever, I don't care 155 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: what people think. Well, that's just good. Hey listen, I 156 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: mean you do, I do a little bit. You do care. Uh, 157 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: it can affect you a little bit, but at the 158 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: end of the day, it's it's that's that's part of 159 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: my job as being as a leader um in the 160 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: position that I'm in. Uh, it's it's part of It's 161 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: part of the job description, I think too, to take 162 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: that on it and and make sure everybody else is 163 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: feeling as good as they can about it. Can you 164 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: sense that people kind of play off of that and 165 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: that they feed off of that because we had actually 166 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: my Wallace on here and he was talking about just 167 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: how the way that you carry yourself in the way 168 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: that kind of translates to everybody amongst that entire group 169 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: that it's almost like your responsibility to you know, to 170 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: to not get too high or too low as the 171 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: cliche thing, but yeah, listen at the end of the day, 172 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: I hope. So it's all about what my players believe in, 173 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: you know, what my players think of me and all that. 174 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: And that's why I don't like to do a lot 175 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: of other stuff. I'd like to stay stay the same 176 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: and be the same person on the field and the 177 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: same leader, because it's all about what the players think 178 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: and what kind of trust they have in me, and um, 179 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't matter what people think, what other 180 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: people think, outsiders think of the methods that I do it. 181 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: It's really what what kind of trust do I have 182 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: with my teammates and how can I, you know, how 183 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: can I make sure that they respond to bet you know, 184 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: the best moving forward? It's not about what what what's 185 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: already happened. It's about how can we get the best 186 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: out of the moving forward. And really it comes down 187 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: to the trust factor, you know, in their quarterback and 188 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: can they look at him and say, um, you know, 189 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: oh man he's not really that affected by it. Maybe 190 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: I shouldn't feel as bad as I do, you know. 191 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: I mean, I think we've all grown up and been 192 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: little kids and had a time where we've been really 193 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 1: down about it. And you go home and you think that, 194 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: you know, somebody's gonna be really disappointed in you. And 195 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: when you get home, they're not disappointed in you. They're 196 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: there to they're there to pick you up, and they're 197 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: there to do positive things for you. And it it 198 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: instantly makes you feel a lot of a lot better 199 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: about whatever it may have been that you weren't feeling 200 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 1: good about. And you got to realize that the same 201 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: thing happens with thirty year old and twenty two year 202 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: old kids, and you know that all that all happens. 203 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: You know, guys go out there and you know we're 204 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: in we're in the spotlight, and we all make mistakes 205 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: and um, you know there's a there's a time and 206 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: place to correct those and and to make sure that 207 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: guys are on top of it. And the good thing 208 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: about us is that we have a good group of 209 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: guys and you know they're not out there being lazy 210 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: and and and and doing things all for them so, um, 211 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: you know, you don't want to go out there and 212 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: and and put put their you know, do something that 213 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: may that may make them put their head in between 214 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: their legs and and cower up. You want them to 215 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 1: be strong and go out there and finish the game 216 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: off the right way. You're talking a little bit about 217 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: even getting on into it with coaches a little bit. 218 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: I feel like you're a guy that at times you're like, 219 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna gun sling this thing, put 220 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: it on my shoulder. I'm gonna go out here and 221 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: win you a ball game. How often do you do that? 222 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: And how much of a urge do you have inside you? 223 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: This say is, oh, Garrett, I have a sound effect. 224 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: Actually it's called spread it out and let's start chucking. 225 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: How often do you feel that? Why? I think we've 226 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: been fortunate around here that we've had, you know, we've 227 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: had good teams and we've been able to, you know, 228 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: get a lot of leads and play good football. But yeah, 229 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: obviously there's a kinds of time where you know, stuff 230 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,599 Speaker 1: is the fan and and and and you know, you 231 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: get fed up with certain things, and um, you know, 232 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: maybe it may even be the fact that I just 233 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: threw a pick and was pisting myself about it, and 234 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: it's like, all right, you know, forget about that. Let's 235 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: go out there and just let it loose. And you 236 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: know everybody can feel that, and I think it does 237 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: wonders for you for the whole team. Serious question here, 238 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: you're playing a game of five. You're throwing the ball 239 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: up to Steve Smith or aunt kwom Bolton. No rules barred. 240 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: They can just fight to the death. Who comes up 241 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: with the football one of those man put them on 242 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: the spot. I'm not answering that question because that would 243 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: be I don't even know if I would like to 244 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: watch that, because it would just be too It would 245 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: be it would be. It would be a brutal site. 246 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: I got news for you. I think the ball would 247 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,079 Speaker 1: be ripped to shreds and you know they they'd each 248 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: come a boy with a couple of pieces of it, 249 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: both be concussed and missing limbs. So you know this, 250 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: This franchise has been known for defense for so long, right, 251 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: does that ever bother you? Now? Now we have number 252 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 1: one defense in the league? Does it? Does it never 253 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: kind of bother you? It doesn't bother me. I just 254 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: wish you know, but but there are times where I 255 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: think it it affects Um. I do think there are 256 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: times where it affects things. You know. Um, I just yeah, yeah, 257 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: sometimes you know, sometimes I just you're not not so 258 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 1: not so much anymore. But there there have been times 259 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: where you know, it's like it was almost it's almost 260 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: like just just let's not do too much and let 261 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: the defense do do their thing. And um, you know, 262 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: I'm more of a person that's willing to take more chances, 263 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: and I think we're gonna get better in the long 264 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: run for it. And yeah, we might lose a game 265 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: because we were maybe a little bit over aggressive or 266 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: whatever it may be, whatever you wanna call it, but 267 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: in the long run, you know, it's all about winning 268 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. In this league, you find out out 269 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: very quickly it's not a it's not just about being 270 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: careful and winning games. It's about winning the whole thing. 271 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: In order to do that, you have to have both 272 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: sides of the ball playing at a high level. You're 273 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 1: not gonna win it with one side of the ball 274 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: very rarely, so you have to have people that are 275 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 1: You have to have players that are confident. In order 276 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: to do that. You have to play aggressive football on offense, 277 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:33,719 Speaker 1: and you have to go out there and let it fly. 278 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: And yeah, you might lose a game, Yeah you might. 279 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: You're gonna have bad plays, but in the long run, 280 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: it's gonna make guys better, more confident, and it's going 281 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: to make you more likely to win that that ultimate game, 282 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: the super Bowl, because believe me, I mean, we've lost 283 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: in Navcy Championship game around here, we've lost in the 284 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: other rounds of the playoffs. And yeah it's nice and 285 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: it's it's nice and dandy to make the playoffs and 286 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: you're all happy, but once you lose, it's no different 287 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: than you know, going eight and eight and not make 288 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. That that's the reality of it. Uh 289 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: that's true. Yeah, that is true, and that's a lot 290 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 1: of people. But like just in terms of how you know, 291 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,959 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you lose and the way way 292 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 1: you're thinking about that season is in reality, as a player, 293 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 1: there really is not too much difference between you know, 294 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 1: getting to the playoffs and just not really doing anything 295 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: or uh, not getting to them at all. It comes 296 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: down to being able to win that game. So everything, 297 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: all of your energy, all you're focused in times should 298 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: go into winning that game, you know, and and sometimes 299 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: I think you can. You know, you get caught up 300 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: in the moment, and and and so um. You know, 301 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: so protective of individual games that you lose sight of 302 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: the fact that we need to get as good as 303 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: we can on both sides of the ball in order 304 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: to win the whole thing. We can't just be protective 305 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 1: of one side or the other and try to get 306 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: through games. We gotta we gotta, we gotta really get good. 307 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: Last week, you throw three touchdowns, probably the best offensive performance, 308 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: especially the second half of you guys have had. So 309 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: we spent a lot of times talking about the offense 310 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: this year. Is the offense fixed? Everything's fine? Now? If 311 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 1: only it was that easy, listen. I mean, I think 312 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: I said the last couple of weeks. Uh. You know, 313 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: any time, anytime you're in this league and you're not 314 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: playing as well as you want to, until you're always close, 315 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: there's always a couple of things. There's always a couple 316 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: of things that's a difference. And right now when you 317 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: look at it, you know, we can run the ball 318 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: a little bit better, our short passing game, and you know, 319 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: when we haven't played well, you know, it just hasn't 320 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 1: been as easy as it should be. Um, you know, 321 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: whether I've missed you know, a six yard hitch or 322 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: whether we were a yard two yards deep on it 323 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: or you know whatever, it is, like, we just haven't jaeled, 324 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: you know, and we haven't like that stuff that should 325 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: be guaranteed hasn't been, you know, So instead of moving 326 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: the chains two or three more times a game and 327 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: giving ourselves more opportunities, we're running off the field. And 328 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: then the other side of at is the fact that 329 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: you know, we we were say I want to say, 330 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: look back, I think it was the Pittsburgh game, maybe 331 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: like we I can look back. I think there were 332 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: three plays in that game work that could have been 333 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: touchdowns and they were in complete passes. So like we're 334 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: given ours, we gave ourselves a couple of chances to 335 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: to make big plays and we didn't make them. And um, 336 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: if we would have made him, it would have been 337 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: a completely different game. Now I want to give our 338 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: I want to give our our players ten chances to 339 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: make those plays. And if we only make three of them, 340 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: you know, now it's still a different game because we 341 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: still made three of them. So we don't have enough. 342 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: We haven't give ourselves enough chances because of that, that 343 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: that short little the running game and the and the 344 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: easy stuff that should be easy. And then when we 345 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: do get our chances, we're just not we haven't been 346 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: hitting them. So in Cleveland was big. You know. We 347 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: get down the red zone and we get the ball there, 348 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: and we get down the red zone and we get 349 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: Steve over the middle. We made the play at the 350 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: end of the game. We have a ninety play drive 351 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: that ends with it, that ends with Brashad one on 352 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: one making a touchdown catch. And that's what we haven't had, 353 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: you know, and other games that ball would have fallen 354 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: short to the it has fallen short and you know, 355 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, hasn't been completed. And not that it 356 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: may have changed the outcome of this past game, but 357 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: in other games it's probably affected the outcome a little bit. 358 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 1: You can look at the Washington game. At the end 359 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: of the Washington game, you know, like, you know, we 360 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: could have played better in that game and done better things, 361 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: but we still have probably a play or two that 362 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: can define the game, and we just weren't able to 363 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: make it happen. And they open and the open, get 364 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 1: to the fifth yard line, and then it's just more 365 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: drops the ball and you know, so it's just you know, 366 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: so like and it's and it is a fine line 367 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: between winning and losing in this league. I mean, you'd 368 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: like it not you'd like to make your chances a 369 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: little bit better than that, but it always comes down 370 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: to that every week. I mean you can see, Look, 371 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: pittsburghs lost four straight games. I mean, Cincinnati's sitting at three, 372 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: five and one. You know. So as as as as 373 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: a player, I think it's my job, especially as a 374 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: leader in this team, is to make sure there's a 375 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: positive atmosphere around this building because we're in a good position. 376 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: And I think sometimes when you're only five and four 377 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: and you and we we did lose four straight, there 378 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: can still be a little bit of a negative feeling 379 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: in here and and all around, and it's not our 380 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: job to really to really have that kind of mindset. 381 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: One thing that it goes along with playing quarterback is 382 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,400 Speaker 1: whenever the offense struggles, then people say, well, what's wrong 383 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: with the quarterback? Right? And I think that everybody's been 384 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: what that's been watching you for as long as we 385 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 1: have says we've seen Joe be lights out. I mean 386 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: the playoffs, you can get hot, and when you get hot, 387 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 1: you're one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL bar nine. 388 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: And now they look at, you know, best quarterback rating 389 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: in the league, and people are asking Garrett and I 390 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: what's wrong with Joe. So in the most open ended 391 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 1: direct way, I know how to ask you this question, 392 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: what's up with Joe Becase when you look at quarterback 393 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: rating and stuff like that, we're not scored enough points 394 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: and I don't throw any touchdown passes, you know, And 395 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: that's that's like I said that, It's all those things 396 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: I just said. You know, I gotta you know, we 397 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: gotta be a better page on you know, with our 398 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: I gotta be on a better page with my receivers 399 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: and you know, and and all that stuff. And um, 400 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 1: you know, it's just like I said, it's a little 401 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: easy miss throws or things like that. That's what that's 402 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 1: what is disappointing. It's nothing that's really hard when you 403 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: go back and watch it. I think our offensive line 404 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,160 Speaker 1: getting back together and getting a solid group of guys 405 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: out there will help. Um. But at the end of 406 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: the day, it's it's just being you know, being better 407 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: on my part, on on the on the easy things, 408 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 1: um and letting some of those other things take care 409 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: of himself take care of itself. Does any part of 410 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: it go back to before training camp opened? I pitched 411 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: a video to you and I went out there with 412 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: a girl pull my helmet and I got used to 413 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 1: I got used to your route running that's right and 414 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: my my less than blazing speed and you called it 415 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: then you said this might throw off my time. Does 416 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: that have anything doing? I wish I could look back 417 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: at that and say and say and say that was 418 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: it was that easy? But no, I mean you did 419 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: a pretty good job that day. Yeah, he's gonna be 420 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,680 Speaker 1: talking for the next month about how he got right Joe. 421 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,640 Speaker 1: Quick question. We ask a lot of guests this who 422 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: went in to fight me or DELI straight up right here? 423 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: I think, yes, you can't get in all you can't 424 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 1: get in on him all. Right. So we do a 425 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: storytime segment on here, and it's really just any kind 426 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: of story, and we want to ask you the story 427 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: about when you signed the contract, a big contract the 428 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 1: second time you got my understanding of it, you got 429 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: your paycheck, and then you basically kind of take it 430 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,239 Speaker 1: from me. There's some guys here in the building kind 431 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: of filming the gap for me. Yeah. Well, you know, 432 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: obviously I was here rehabbing, so I just kind of 433 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 1: answered my rehabits, went upstairs, uh, and signed one day, 434 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: and I forget, I forget why there was a reason, 435 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 1: but Mike Campanero was here, and I forget who else 436 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 1: was here, to be honest with you, Um, but yeah, 437 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: I think I got a chat. I think I got 438 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: a piece of it. Whatever I was getting, I don't 439 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: know how. I forget how much it was, but yeah, 440 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: zeros are in the actual I don't know. I forget. Um, 441 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: I don't even know if it was a real check. Uh. 442 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, no, but I you know, I just thought 443 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:13,919 Speaker 1: it would be fun for those guys. I brought it 444 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 1: down there. We were probably busting each other's balls all day, 445 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: you know, So when I went up there and signed 446 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: it and got the check that they gave me, I 447 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:21,919 Speaker 1: brought it down and just and showed them just to 448 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 1: see what they would, you know, just to see their reaction, 449 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: because because like I said, we were busting each other's 450 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: balls all day, and it was just one of those 451 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: things that I thought I could like I could throw 452 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: the last little thing at him and then walk out, 453 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: you know, the victor. So that's the mic drop, the 454 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 1: altar mic drop. You know what is like if you 455 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: had that button one dollar bills and then you just 456 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: like pull up to their house and you're like open 457 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:48,119 Speaker 1: the doors. And that's my dream that I feel like. 458 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 1: One of the things that about you is people assume 459 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: that you've gotta like a super thrifty guy. You know 460 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: the McDonald's saying you go to McDonald's, just signed the 461 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: contract and all that stuff, that you don't strike anybody 462 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: somebody that spends a lot of money on stuff. His 463 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: clothes have gotten pretty nice, though. I think he spends money. 464 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 1: This has some expensive suits. My suits, yeah, this got 465 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 1: just daily wear.

But where were you going 471 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: with that? Yeah? My question though, is what's the Is 472 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: there anything just a dumb thing that you have purchased 473 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: that you're like, you know what, I really have no 474 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: reason for this. It's expensive, but I've got this, all 475 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: this money, I might as well spend it. The dumbest 476 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: thing I bought were how many did I buy? I 477 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: bought a handful of massage chairs a few years back, 478 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: like the big Brookstone ones that like you know, like 479 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: tell you all the way back purchase. I think we 480 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 1: were at my rental house. I think we're at the 481 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: house that my wife and I ranted, like the first 482 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: two years we were married here and Dennis and his 483 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 1: wife were over and we were playing cards or something, 484 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 1: and I forget why I saw these chairs or what 485 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: I said, what do you guys think? Like I guess something, 486 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: and like of course pitted us the ultimate uh peer 487 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: pressure once he got the person who wants you to 488 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,239 Speaker 1: do dumb things, so he started getting in my ear 489 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: about doing it. I might have got five of them, 490 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: you know, I had a couple of thousand dollars apiece 491 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: used them one time and they just sat in my basement. 492 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 1: Craig Singletary, one of our security guys, actually is he 493 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: picked up I think two of them. He picked up 494 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: two of them out of my basement a couple of 495 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 1: months ago and he's still coming back for the ones 496 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: that are left. So that guy, I'm just I just 497 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: gave I just gave him. I just gave him to 498 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: him the cheapest guy. I'm the guy who would take 499 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: anything that was that. I mean, you know, that was 500 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: probably the one thing because you know, I, like I said, 501 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: I used him. I sat on it one time. I 502 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: really as big as they are, I still didn't really 503 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: fit in it, you know. So it was I made 504 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: six seven guys. No, No, that's great. So this is 505 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: a portion of the program now that we like to 506 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,719 Speaker 1: get into more of the personal fun stuff here, Joe, 507 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 1: I've done talking football and uh so, while we're on 508 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: the subject of your thrifty nous, is it true that 509 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: you spent your first two off seasons in the NFL 510 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: living at your family's house in autumn and sharing your 511 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: room with your brother? Yes? Okay. Is it also true 512 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: that that room had a poster of Tom Brady on 513 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:27,719 Speaker 1: it while you were living in It's got a lot 514 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: of I mean, it's got a lot of it's kind 515 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 1: of magazine cut out posters of a lot of people, 516 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: you know, so yes, Tom, Tom was one of them. 517 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: You can't your brother can't even put your post shop 518 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: on the wall while you're living. I mean, shoot, he 519 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: probably did that when we were man, I mean, he 520 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: might have made those. I think that was probably back 521 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: in like two thousand. I mean so I was probably 522 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 1: a freshman or sophomore. He was, he was in junior 523 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: high when he probably started doing all that. And it's 524 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 1: still you know, my room is that room is still 525 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: looks identical to it the way it did sixteen years ago. 526 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: So um, that's the reasoning for that. But yeah, I 527 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: mean you gotta realize, I mean, what what was my home? 528 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 1: You know my first couple of years. Well, I was 529 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 1: probably home for two months. You know, we were coming 530 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: back here in March. You know, we were done almost 531 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,160 Speaker 1: at the end of January. So I mean I probably 532 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: had a month and a half where I would go 533 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: back home and uh, you know, and then I was 534 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: back here. So I spent most of my time here. 535 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 1: So I mean, you can call it living with my parents, 536 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: like you know, I guess it's kind of what it was. 537 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: But you know, what was I going to do buy 538 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 1: a place back there? I mean not really, not not 539 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: for a month, you know, so you just go home 540 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: and play video games like that's what I did on 541 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: my college Now I was still going. I was I 542 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 1: was working out and then just hanging out with my 543 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: wife is probably with my wife, my now wife and 544 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: then girlfriend most of the day. You know, who knows 545 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: what I was doing. I don't, you know, I don't 546 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: want to remember that much. People always ask us, you know, 547 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 1: what's so and so, like, you know, what's this guy 548 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: like as a player. And one of the things, obviously 549 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: you're one of the guys that they asked about, probably 550 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: more than anybody. And our response always is, he's just 551 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: like an average guy. And I'm curious how you kind 552 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: of really good at football. He's an average guy who 553 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 1: happens to be good at football, right, And my question is, 554 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 1: how have you kind of maintained that amidst being coming, 555 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 1: you know, one of the highest faid quarterbacks, a Super 556 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 1: Bowl winner, how have you maintained that? Well, that's all 557 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: this other stuff going on around you. Yeah, that's all 558 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,360 Speaker 1: I'm interested in being is you know, I'm not interested 559 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: in being anybody but who I am. And you know, 560 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,239 Speaker 1: it's really tough for me to kind of to do that. 561 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: I think it's it's just not my personality. I think 562 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: we all who we are all who we are, especially 563 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 1: when the spotlights put honest, you become who you truly are. 564 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: And like, like I said, I just think that I'm 565 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 1: the same in all in all aspects. I don't, you know, 566 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 1: I get embarrassed easy. I'm pretty shy and you know 567 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 1: all that. So I think it's you know, it's pretty 568 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: easy for me to just want to be who I 569 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 1: am and be simple and um, you grew up in 570 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: a big family and got four kids in my own 571 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 1: now and it's a lot of fun and take a 572 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: lot of pride in that. And I think that all 573 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: keeps you kind of grounded and you know, kind of 574 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: moving along with the in a normal flow of things. 575 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: I'm kind of curious what you were like in high 576 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,199 Speaker 1: school where you like the star quarterback that you know, 577 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: kind of was the coolest guy at school. We know 578 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: what were you like? No? Yeah, no, I had a 579 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: couple of friends. My best friend was my receiver that 580 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: lived across the street from me, and my other best 581 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: friend lived around the corner from me. He picked us up, 582 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: we drive to school every day. I could care less 583 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 1: about going out at nights and going to parties and 584 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: doing those things. I went into class, didn't say two 585 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 1: words to anybody when you know, I was I was. 586 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: I was who I was. I am who you see 587 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 1: right now, but probably but more quiet, you know. And 588 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: you know if I did go out after, you know, 589 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: i'd go out with games and stuff like that and 590 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: hang out. But I would you know, I would do 591 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: what you would expect that I would do. I would 592 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: go there and sit and just kind of hang out 593 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: and do nothing. You know, Come on, it sounds so dull. 594 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 1: Just go and see that's what I did commercial commercial. Hey, 595 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 1: it's a I mean, you guys know me. I mean, 596 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: what did you want? You know, what do you expect 597 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 1: me walking around the high school in my varsity letterman's 598 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: jacket was acting like just shoving kids into lockers and 599 00:26:54,119 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: like no, no, I mean, uh yeah, I was. I 600 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: was quiet. I went I went there, did my school work, 601 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 1: went and practiced, went home, you know, I went to bed, 602 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: woke up, did the same thing. Um, you know, I was. 603 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: I was a homebody. I like I said, I had 604 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: my few few close friends and we would kind of 605 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: drive around and see what was going on on the 606 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 1: weekends here and there. But at the end of the 607 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: night we probably I'm not doing too much and come 608 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: home and yeah, I was simple. I didn't want to 609 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: do a lot. I didn't want to get involved in 610 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 1: drinking and doing all those things. I didn't do any 611 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: of that stuff. So you don't drink pumpkin beer? Well, now, 612 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: I mean if I go, like I say, if I 613 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,239 Speaker 1: go to like a little gathering or if we're going 614 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: somebody's house or Thanksgiving or something, and yeah, I mean 615 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'll grab a pumpkin beer. Now I'll probably 616 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 1: get through three quarters of it and say, man, this 617 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: isn't that good. Like why am I drinking this? You know, 618 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: give me, give me something else, Give me just a 619 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: water or coke, you know, something like that. Um. You know, 620 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: there was my time where I could go out and 621 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: have a couple of you know, a couple of beers 622 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: or something like that. But anymore, I'm just like, man, 623 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 1: I'm such a lightweight and it just it just isn't good. 624 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,120 Speaker 1: I don't I don't like it. So just like, give 625 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: me something that if I'm gonna drink something, I'm gonna 626 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: drink something I like. Uh. And that's it. You know. 627 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: That kind of does happen when you have kids, especially 628 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 1: four of them. My bedtime is latest nine o'clock these days. 629 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 1: I mean, shoot, like, you know, if me and my 630 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 1: wife got to dinner, like I have a glass of wine, 631 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 1: you know, but I'm not even even that.

You 644 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: want a little bit of a breather.

So 652 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: it's a lot of fun, but at the same time, 653 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 1: it's you know, it's a it's a lot of work 654 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 1: to get down on them and they have a ton 655 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 1: of energy, you know, to get down on the floor 656 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: with them and roll around for three hours, it's like, man, 657 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: there's bedtime here yet, or was for them? Is their 658 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: bedtime here? Yet?

If my wife all the sun says 663 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: she's gotta go do something or I'm gonna i'm you know, 664 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be I'm gonna feel like I'm you know, 665 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: giving her a night out, and she's got to go through. 666 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: Three hours with those kids is a long time. It's 667 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: a long time to entertain three boys, you know. So 668 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: I usually hang out with them for a little bit, 669 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: play with them and try to buy all them up, 670 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: and then I usually throw them int car and you know, 671 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: throwing him in the car is a good way to 672 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: just you know, whether it's just going out and running 673 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: and like being like the you know, not being the 674 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 1: tough dad. You know, you get you get, you get 675 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 1: a chance to be a you know, a cool dad 676 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 1: for you know, whether we get put him in the car, 677 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 1: go get him a milkshake and then drive around for 678 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 1: a little bit, and that kills yeah, And I can 679 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: kill an hour, you know, I could easily kill an 680 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: hour an hour driving around with them and doing something 681 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: that they want to do, you know, that they think 682 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: is cool, like oh man, we get to go out 683 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 1: with that and do this. Um. And that's kind of 684 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: how I would end up doing it, because there's no 685 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: way I could sit at home and just you know, 686 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: I would lose focus. I would all of a sudden 687 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: not be paying attention to them. They'd be three rooms over, 688 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: tearing the house apart, and I would just be I 689 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: would be not paying attention to him, which my attention 690 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,239 Speaker 1: spans is not there for them. The best is like, 691 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: you know, when I was playing with my niece and 692 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: she's like, you know, I'm gonna put you down to bed. 693 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: I'm the mommy baby, I'm gonna put you to bed. 694 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: You're like, this game is great. I can do this 695 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: all day. The only problems you can't fall asleep exactly exactly, 696 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: that's a that's a trap, man, because listen, I mean 697 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: my kids, they have every trick in the book to 698 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: get out of the bed, to get out of bed. 699 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: Especially my oldest son just just he doesn't like going 700 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 1: to bed. And it's just it's a it's a fight 701 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: every night to you know, to try to convince him 702 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: that it's bed time and to fall asleep and not 703 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: wake up his brother and not do all. You know, 704 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: So it's crazy bap in your house? You good cop? 705 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: And your wife back up? Or how do you guys 706 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: play that. I'm a lot of bad cop, but I'm 707 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: you know, I think I think I think I do 708 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: both sides pretty good. But and listen, my wife's at 709 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: home with him all day, so I think eventually her 710 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: yelling at them, it eventually loses his power. Dad comes home, 711 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 1: So when I come home, I can lay down the 712 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 1: law and uh and and try to set him straight. Uh. 713 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: And I like doing that. It's kind of fun to 714 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 1: be honest with you. Come home. Now he starts dropping 715 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 1: the no, yeah you got you gotta come home and 716 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: drop the hammer for sure. And then, like I said, 717 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: it is it's kind of fun because you know, you 718 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: want to make sure that they're being raised the right way, 719 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: and that's part of it. So don't you know, Dana 720 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 1: probably doesn't listen to the lounge, so you're free to 721 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: answer this however, you like, how many kids are you 722 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: gonna have? What do you tend? Twelves? I wish we're 723 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 1: not having that many. I don't know. I really don't know. 724 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: I would say we're at least gonna try to have 725 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: one more, but shoot, man, we'll see. How's it been 726 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: having a daughter? I know you were really excited about 727 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: having a daughter. Yeah, it's I mean, she's she's quiet. 728 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 1: I mean she's only six weeks old, so you know what, 729 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: what do we know? We don't We don't know what 730 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: she's gonna be. Yeah she could. She could be a 731 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: whole different monster for all we know. But she just 732 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 1: seems way more quiet and way more relaxed already than 733 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 1: the other ones are. I mean, the three boys are 734 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: just crazy, all the energy in the world and just NonStop. 735 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: So I'm hoping that she'll be a little bit more 736 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 1: reserved and a little bit easier to control. But yeah, 737 00:32:58,280 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: that's not going to happen. Oh, I know, it's like 738 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 1: a bad for whoever the first boyfriend is what comes over, 739 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: and she's got three older brothers they're watching. I don't 740 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: envy that kid shoes. Yeah, I hope that takes a 741 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 1: little while. Um, you know, obviously you know you don't 742 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 1: want to. I'm not gonna be ridiculous about it, but man, 743 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: it definitely is a little bit different when you start 744 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: having when you start talking about having a little girl 745 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: and and having that day come so I can wait 746 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: for that. Now. You know, she might think she's a 747 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: boy till she's ten years older because of all of 748 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: her brothers. So one thing I want to ask you 749 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: about is, uh, one thing amazes me you still have 750 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:32,959 Speaker 1: time to watch the TV shows. You and I are 751 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,719 Speaker 1: both Thrones guys. We're big Thrones guys. I want you 752 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: to give me your top few TV series because Thrones 753 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: is right Thrones to the wire for me. I probably 754 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:45,320 Speaker 1: wanted to breaking bad up there. Give me your top 755 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: three series. I've watched all those. I mean, the off 756 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: season is huge for binge watching, and you know, and 757 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: and and Game of Thrones usually happens to be on 758 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: at those times. And then and then like right now, 759 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: like you know, the good thing about the shows is 760 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: that they're not on in the middle of the week. 761 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: You know, they're on Sunday nights, so some Sunday nights 762 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: a great time to watch shows. So, like, I mean, 763 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 1: I obviously like Game of Thrones. It's right up there. 764 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 1: I think Billions is a new series on Showtime that 765 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: was on this offseason. I would put that up there. 766 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: That's really good just because it's a new one. Um, 767 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 1: I really like Breaking I haven't watched House of Cards. 768 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,200 Speaker 1: I mean, we like Breaking bad. But at some point 769 00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: I was just like, okay, this seems to the end. Um, 770 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,759 Speaker 1: you know, Okay, it drags. The Sons of Anarchy was 771 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: the same way. It just needed to end at some point. 772 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: And then right now I'm watching West World. You know 773 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,799 Speaker 1: I heard good thing. Yeah, when I get home, it's 774 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: on Sunday nights, so it's the same thing. Uh, you know, 775 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: we'll get home, um, you know on a Sunday night, 776 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: on a Sunday from a game, and my family will 777 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 1: be here and we usually kick them out. At some point. 778 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,360 Speaker 1: They'll get they all get the idea around eight thirty 779 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 1: nine o'clock and West World comes on at ten o'clock 780 00:34:57,960 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: and as long as I can stay awake for it, 781 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 1: which I usually can because you're wired on Sunday. Um, yeah, 782 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,479 Speaker 1: we me and my wife sit down and watch West World, 783 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 1: and it's getting pretty interesting.

So um, 785 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 1: I think there's a good amount of guys in the 786 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: locker room that watch it too. So I'm trying to 787 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,400 Speaker 1: keep straight who's watching it and who isn't so I 788 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 1: can make sure so I can make sure i'm quiet around. 789 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 1: But it's fun to talk about it with some of 790 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: the guys.

Like would you really 812 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:28,839 Speaker 1: want to be president? And just see what they say, 813 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 1: and most people say no, like like do you want 814 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: every second of your day scheduled for the next four day? 815 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 1: Eight years? And just all of that, and you know, 816 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: and and so much of it, so much of what 817 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 1: goes into It's like, yeah, I want to play quarterback 818 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Do I want all the other stuff 819 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: that goes around with it? No, not necessarily, but that, 820 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 1: but I like playing quarterback and I can deal with that. 821 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 1: I can deal with that other stuff. I feel like 822 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: a lot of the stuff that goes into being president 823 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 1: is that stuff, the stuff that I wouldn't want to 824 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: deal with. Like, yeah, I feel like I could do 825 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: a lot of things, but at the end of the day, 826 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: just getting involved in the polity go arena and doing 827 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 1: all those things, I think, Oh, I think that would 828 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,359 Speaker 1: wear you out. And I think when you actually found 829 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: out the reality of what goes on behind the scenes 830 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 1: and what you have to deal with, like the butts 831 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,280 Speaker 1: you have to kiss and all that stuff, I couldn't 832 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: do it. I could not do it. I wouldn't want 833 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: to do it, and I just think it'd be very 834 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 1: hard for me to do like after, you know, I 835 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 1: think I'd get in the job for a couple of 836 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 1: weeks and I would say, Man, this is what it is. 837 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 1: I cannot I can't do this. It's it's gonna wear 838 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: me out right like to I just couldn't put on 839 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: probably that face or that front for I don't see much. Yeah, 840 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 1: I think you can really kiss. Yeah, And I think 841 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 1: there's a certain aspect of that and that's not what 842 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 1: I mean. You know, I think you can get what 843 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 1: I mean when I just by me asking would you 844 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: really want to be president. I think it takes a 845 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 1: you know, it takes a certain kind of person to 846 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: do it. Plus he kind of got a lie, and 847 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 1: I will take you also as a liar. I'm not gonna. 848 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 1: I can't lie. I'm bad at it always have been, 849 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 1: you know, my I think I was like fourteen playing 850 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: summer league baseball. The high school coach, you know, his 851 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: son was on It was my age, so, you know, 852 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 1: were he always coached our teams also, and I was 853 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: playing shortstop, and um, somebody hit a groundball to me, 854 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: and uh, the guy was running from second to third. 855 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: You know, I filled the groundball and I forget what 856 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,879 Speaker 1: happened on the play. Um, but he was my coach 857 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: was arguing that the ball hit the runner, and he 858 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: was arguing with the rev, arguing with the rev, argument 859 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 1: with the ref. And he came out to me and said, Joe, 860 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,799 Speaker 1: didn't it hit him? I said, no, didn't hit him. 861 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 1: I'll never forget how piste off he was at for 862 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 1: not lying, you know, for not just saying yeah, it 863 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: hit him, you know, and it's just it's just just me, 864 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 1: you know, I just you know, I didn't even really 865 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:40,960 Speaker 1: think about it. I just answered like, no, man, it 866 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: didn't hit him. And that's me. I think I'm pretty 867 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 1: straight up and pretty honest about, you know, assessing certain 868 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 1: situations and being up front with people. And I think, uh, 869 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 1: you know, and I have to I really have a 870 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 1: tough time not being I mean maybe maybe it's almost 871 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: like a social awkwardness that I have. I just tell 872 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: you how it is and see how you react to it. 873 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,479 Speaker 1: But Umah, would have a tough time lying, for sure. 874 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 1: I remember one time when you lie to us. It 875 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 1: was that I don't even know this one. It was 876 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 1: at the end of season Bengals game. You were kind 877 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 1: of banged up, how he was banged up? Right, you 878 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,439 Speaker 1: take a hit in the back of the end zone 879 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 1: and the CBS cameras get you going at the end 880 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,799 Speaker 1: of that throw, right, and then after the game seasons over. 881 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:24,919 Speaker 1: You don't have to lie about your health status because 882 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 1: the season's over. It's done, And we asked you, Joe 883 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 1: was knee hurting rights? I remember if I was. I 884 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 1: got hit in the back in the back of Cincinnati's 885 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 1: end zone, away from where you come out of the tunnel. 886 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: And then the issue was that is like I don't 887 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 1: know what I had that year. Maybe an MCL I 888 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 1: forget um, but I mean it hindered. I mean it 889 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: made me stiff probably, and maybe I couldn't move as well. 890 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 1: But whoever it was was on top of me, my 891 00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 1: knee got caught like he's laying on my knee. And 892 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: I didn't have like the flection in my leg that 893 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,439 Speaker 1: you know, I didn't have full flection of my because 894 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: it was my knee was swollen a little bit, and 895 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 1: I was on my back and he was and I 896 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:07,839 Speaker 1: was sliding on the turf a little bit, and he 897 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,720 Speaker 1: was on top of me, and and it just kept 898 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,479 Speaker 1: going and he kept he just kept bending my knee 899 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 1: more and more and more and more and more and 900 00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: more and more. And did that hurt? Because I remember 901 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: going like I remember, you know, trying to grunt the 902 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 1: pain away on that one. And then I got up 903 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: and ran off the field. By time I had the sideline, 904 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: you know, kind of subsided it a little bit. Um, 905 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,319 Speaker 1: But that was what that was. It would it would 906 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,319 Speaker 1: be like it would be like somebody taking like you know, 907 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: a month after I got done my a c L surgery, 908 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: when I couldn't bend my knee all the way, it 909 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,880 Speaker 1: would be somebody like taking it and just forcing it then, um, 910 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:45,719 Speaker 1: and that that's you know, so I don't know if 911 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: I was technically lying to you. Was that did hurt? Though? 912 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 1: On that note, like you shake off so many hits, 913 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: I mean it took an a c l you know how. 914 00:40:58,040 --> 00:40:59,479 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people out there and wonder 915 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 1: how you do it. You're like, I had to grow 916 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: up my way through that one. Do you have to 917 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: do that like all the time? Like how are you 918 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 1: able to take so many hits behind a patrick offensive 919 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 1: line and just keep on tick? Hey? I mean, I 920 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 1: mean that's part of you know, yeah, if you I 921 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 1: keep hearing you know, people talking about throwing off your 922 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 1: black back foot, which you know yeah, uh, I mean 923 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: I don't think I'm throwing off my back back foot, 924 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:26,439 Speaker 1: but like at the top of my drop a little 925 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 1: bit there, there is times where I'm going back where 926 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: it was still a little bit, you know, And I 927 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 1: don't want bad things to happen in the pocket. I 928 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 1: want to be able to get the ball out and 929 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: go through my progression and I'm just trying to buy 930 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,439 Speaker 1: the extra time. Um. I think a lot of times 931 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:39,880 Speaker 1: I am stepping up and doing those things, but that 932 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 1: that's all part of it, you know. That's and and 933 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 1: as a and then and in terms of taking the hits, 934 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,759 Speaker 1: you know, I'm okay with taking the hits, but like 935 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 1: I said, I don't want bad things to happen in 936 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 1: the pocket. I want to be able to get the 937 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 1: ball out. And uh, you know, sometimes when you're just 938 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 1: standing in there and and and people in arms are 939 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 1: flying around and bodies are flying around, you get the 940 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,359 Speaker 1: ball knocked out. In terms of taking the hits, I mean, 941 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 1: that's just I mean, there's not too many things you 942 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 1: can do as a quarterback to be tough. You know, 943 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: You're not going out there and hitting people and blocking people, 944 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 1: and you know, and when you do, you look terrible, 945 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 1: you know, so you kind of try to block someone. 946 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: I feel like, no, I just danced out of the 947 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: way of a couple of guys and he's got in 948 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 1: their way. You know. Like I said, I'm saying, doesn't 949 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 1: look natural, you know, because I'm a quarterback at heart. 950 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: You know, I'm not a guy that's going to hit people. 951 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 1: But you know, the one thing you can do is 952 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 1: you can stand in there and you can take hits, 953 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: and you cannot not complain about it, and uh, it's 954 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:31,879 Speaker 1: another It's just another thing that goes a long way, 955 00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:35,759 Speaker 1: I think with your teammates and and their trust in you. Um, 956 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 1: And I'd be embarrassed if I was to do it, 957 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 1: if I was to react any other way. You know, 958 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: I don't think i'd be able to go home and 959 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 1: look my dad in the face if I was going 960 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 1: to be if I was out there acting like a 961 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 1: baby because I got hit. You know, you know he 962 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,359 Speaker 1: always told us growing up, unless both of your legs 963 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: are broke, you better get off the field if you're hurt, 964 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 1: and you know, I think it's it was kind of 965 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: you know you kind of take that as a joke, 966 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,319 Speaker 1: but not really now when not not not not when 967 00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 1: you know him and not when you know how we 968 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: grew up. You know, I I would I think I 969 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 1: would literally if I broke a leg, I would probably 970 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 1: try to go off the field, like I wouldn't want 971 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 1: to lay down. You know, I always see people with 972 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:06,880 Speaker 1: like hurt wrists and they're on the field, I'm like, 973 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 1: what your legs work, don't they just get up? And 974 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,839 Speaker 1: don't feel your slowing again? You're slowing the game down, 975 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 1: you know, you know like you're you're you can you 976 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: can move your legs, like get up, get up and 977 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: go and go. So yeah, like when I hurt my knee, 978 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:19,359 Speaker 1: I mean, I wasn't thinking I was going to play. 979 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: I mean I was thinking, man, get up and get 980 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:25,720 Speaker 1: off and then let's take care of it there. And uh, 981 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,360 Speaker 1: you know, when I got up, I was obviously just 982 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: surprised that it didn't totally give out, you know, so 983 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: I put a little bit of pressure on it. It 984 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,080 Speaker 1: was just testing it out and said, yeah, you know what, 985 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:35,720 Speaker 1: I think I could finish. So I wasn't necessarily planning 986 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 1: on it, but I was planning on it. Did go 987 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 1: through my mind, like get up and get off, you know, 988 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 1: get your ass up, That's what that's kind of went 989 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: through my mind. Yeah. So so this is this is 990 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:46,880 Speaker 1: the my last question, you're Joe, And this was actually 991 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 1: supposed to be off the whole president of cloudsic sock, 992 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 1: which we can get back in politics, get back. Don't 993 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 1: let him drag you down this dark path. They'll never 994 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 1: get out of it. But this supposed to be my 995 00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,120 Speaker 1: last question. And that is a bunch of kids, know, 996 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:01,480 Speaker 1: they say they want to be a president when they 997 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 1: grow up. What did you want to be when you 998 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 1: grew up? I wanted to be a professional football and 999 00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: a professional baseball player both. Yeah, of course, I mean 1000 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: I think a lot of kids do that. There are 1001 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,879 Speaker 1: multiple sport athletes, you know, throughout the course of their 1002 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 1: whole athletic career. Um, that's what they envisioned themselves being. 1003 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,799 Speaker 1: And then nobody really told me any you know. I 1004 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: mean maybe you call people here and there, but nobody 1005 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,279 Speaker 1: really ever told me any difference. So that is what 1006 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 1: That's what I wanted to do. Do you think you 1007 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:28,319 Speaker 1: could be playing pro baseball if you wanted to go 1008 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 1: that route? And how many Super Bowl titles do you 1009 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 1: walk away within this childhood dream that you you had? Five? 1010 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: There we go, There we go, Joe, thank you very 1011 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 1: much for joining us. And when you score touchdown or 1012 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 1: throw a touchdown on Sunday, hit that mannequin and look 1013 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 1: up to us in the press box, we're gonna be 1014 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,200 Speaker 1: taking full credit. I'll definitely be thinking about you guys 1015 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 1: when it when it happens, but I probably won't do 1016 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: it podcast. You got it well, Joe Flacco for president 1017 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 1: isn't going to happen. Sorry, if you have that on 1018 00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 1: your ballot for you're gonna have to hold on maybe horrible, 1019 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 1: make a hardball hardball. He told me he also would 1020 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 1: not want to be president, even though I think he 1021 00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 1: would be a good one. Yeah, I think he thinks 1022 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:10,239 Speaker 1: he would be a good one. That's what I'm saying. 1023 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 1: Put the two hardballs on the ticket. That would be 1024 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 1: something to really consider. Anyway, Really good stuff from Joe, 1025 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 1: and I really appreciate all of you out there listening. 1026 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 1: We finally made it half. We got Flacco on the pot. 1027 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 1: You guys have been asking.
