<v Speaker 3>clippers to cut his hair, you know, down to a

0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:28.080
<v Speaker 3>low and then still have a hairline with.

0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:29.440
<v Speaker 2>But he needed to get in with this guy.

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:35.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he needed to get like a real shave, like a.

0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:47.280
<v Speaker 3>bump stuff on your head and getting it out all

<v Speaker 3>up and shuff and shiny, which is the best haircut

0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:51.440
<v Speaker 3>you can ever have a ball head.

0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:54.240
<v Speaker 2>But not everybody can pull it off.

0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:56.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean you gotta have a confidence to pull it off. Sure,

0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:01.320
<v Speaker 3>having a ball head, that's like you a confident man.

0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:03.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know what.

0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:04.760
<v Speaker 1>I feel the same way about having short hair as

0:03:04.760 --> 0:03:05.040
<v Speaker 1>a woman.

0:03:05.080 --> 0:03:07.200

0:03:07.560 --> 0:03:09.639
<v Speaker 2>chop it off and feel liberated, let it go.

0:03:10.280 --> 0:03:12.320
<v Speaker 1>So you weren't satisfied with what Bja did.

0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:13.480
<v Speaker 2>No, it didn't count.

<v Speaker 3>No, I didn't count.

0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:19.880
<v Speaker 1>No, Okay, Renee all day is presented by Gellette Labs.

0:03:20.040 --> 0:03:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Gellette Labs is not your dad's razor, It's Jellette's Ultimate

0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 1>shaving experience.

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.080
<v Speaker 2>So you're a hard guy to find some information on.

0:03:28.200 --> 0:03:30.120
<v Speaker 1>Like obviously, football wise, I can find all sorts of

0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:33.359
<v Speaker 1>information on you, but you off the field not as

0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:37.040
<v Speaker 1>easy to find information on. But one of the things

0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:39.600
<v Speaker 1>that kept popping up was you guys being miked up

0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:42.040
<v Speaker 1>of course during the games. Is it stressful to be

0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 1>wearing that mic pack during the game.

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.920
<v Speaker 3>I don't think it's stressful. You know, you just play

0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:49.360
<v Speaker 3>and then go out there and make plays and then

0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 3>people just see the real you in between the plays

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 3>or something like that.

0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:55.720

<v Speaker 1>Everyone the got it.

0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:02.920
<v Speaker 3>You gotta get people's head up because they might say

0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:06.560
<v Speaker 3>something like whoa, whoa, what are you saying? Everybody say

0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:08.920

<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, we we adjust. We are always listening, always

0:13:55.320 --> 0:13:58.840
<v Speaker 1>paying attention. Very true. Okay, you've been on the team,

0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:01.640
<v Speaker 1>uh for quite a while. Now, when are you going

0:14:01.720 --> 0:14:05.760
<v Speaker 1>to go from playoff p to Uncle Pee? Is that

0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:06.560
<v Speaker 1>going to be a thing?

0:14:07.559 --> 0:14:10.680
<v Speaker 3>Uncle plete? I think I'm already probably Uncle Pete to

0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:14.040
<v Speaker 3>some people, you know, but I think I'll probably be

0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:16.719
<v Speaker 3>somebody you know. They probably think I'm alridy old. If

0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:18.920
<v Speaker 3>I don't shave my head and stiff walking around like

0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:22.480
<v Speaker 3>like dang boy, because I ain't gotten here in the middle.

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:26.320
<v Speaker 4>So i'd say, yeah, yeah, how does it feel you

0:14:26.400 --> 0:14:29.760
<v Speaker 4>Are you feeling that like that age of being on

0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:32.120
<v Speaker 4>the team for you know, the five years to having

0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:33.280
<v Speaker 4>some of these newer guys come in.

0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:35.320
<v Speaker 1>Are you feeling that age gap between you guys?

0:14:37.000 --> 0:14:40.760
<v Speaker 3>Not somewhat because I ain't the oldest. Nobody's really it's

0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:43.040
<v Speaker 3>really still young and I'm still young.

0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:46.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, of course. I mean, yeah, you're still young obviously.

0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:48.600
<v Speaker 1>But sometimes when I come in here, I'm like looking

0:14:48.600 --> 0:14:50.720
<v Speaker 1>at someone's date of birth, I'm like, oh my god,

0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:52.240
<v Speaker 1>they're so young.

0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:54.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they're still young, but we still young. Like it's

0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:57.920
<v Speaker 3>not like we ain't got nobody, you just got old

0:14:58.040 --> 0:15:02.760
<v Speaker 3>it or might might say it's really old, but nobody's

0:15:02.800 --> 0:15:04.240
<v Speaker 3>really that old, because.

0:15:03.920 --> 0:15:06.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's crazy because what's old, Like what's who's

0:15:06.920 --> 0:15:08.280
<v Speaker 1>the oldest on the How old is.

0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:10.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't know how, thirty thirty.

0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:13.880
<v Speaker 1>Something, thirty two something like that, thirty.

0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:16.320
<v Speaker 3>Two, I don't know how. Oh yeah, yeah, it's what

0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:18.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm saying. So I think, like it's not that too

0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:20.960
<v Speaker 3>many people, oh because a lot of kids are staying

0:15:20.960 --> 0:15:23.600
<v Speaker 3>in college. Yeah, and they come here like twenty four

0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:26.240
<v Speaker 3>to twenty five. I'm not but twenty seven, so I

0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:26.640
<v Speaker 3>ain't that.

0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, no, not at all. But sometimes that when

0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:31.480
<v Speaker 1>I see like twenty one twenty.

0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:34.000
<v Speaker 3>Two, I'm like, yeah, you got the outliers a baby

0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 3>you know he was first guy?

0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:38.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, no doubt.

0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Okay, what do you want your legacy to be in football?

0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:42.600
<v Speaker 1>What do you want to leave on the sport?

0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:46.560
<v Speaker 3>I'll say a legacy. I just leave this like I

0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:50.280
<v Speaker 3>was a great teammate. It's a guy that that was dependable,

0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:54.200
<v Speaker 3>you can count on, and this is that you can hit.

0:15:54.320 --> 0:15:56.280
<v Speaker 3>So that a guy that loved football.

0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. What about after football? Who do you want to

0:15:59.520 --> 0:16:00.400
<v Speaker 1>be after football?

0:16:00.400 --> 0:16:02.800
<v Speaker 2>What do you want to do? I stay at home, dad,

0:16:03.560 --> 0:16:05.720
<v Speaker 2>great answer I was saying.

0:16:06.120 --> 0:16:08.720
<v Speaker 3>I'd say they stay at home somewhat stay at home.

0:16:09.400 --> 0:16:12.240
<v Speaker 3>But you gotta figure out a balance between that, you know,

0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:15.720
<v Speaker 3>because I see what my kids do. Because after that,

0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:17.960
<v Speaker 3>I know what I really want to do because I

0:16:18.840 --> 0:16:21.520
<v Speaker 3>be around my kids and they if they playing sports,

0:16:21.600 --> 0:16:24.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to everything because I'm I'm not going to

0:16:24.480 --> 0:16:27.240
<v Speaker 3>some job and just sit there. I'm like, oh, my

<v Speaker 3>kid got a game. I'm going to my kid game.

0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:32.600
<v Speaker 3>I'm stopping everything go see them. Because I didn't have

<v Speaker 3>that father figure going to the game and stuff, and

0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:38.000
<v Speaker 3>then I just had my mama was always working. But

0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:40.720

<v Speaker 2>to be that kid.

0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:47.760
<v Speaker 1>All you want to do is look up in the

0:16:47.800 --> 0:16:51.080
<v Speaker 1>stands and see who's there watching for you, rooting for you,

0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:51.920
