I was thinking 6 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: about this. Every time you come back and you go 7 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: out there in the field house and you see yourself 8 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: hanging a monster image of you and all of the 9 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:33,520 Speaker 1: Ringer Honor inductees of this organization that's been around since 10 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty, do you take a look at it just 11 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 1: for a second and doesn't make you reflect. It's funny 12 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: you say that, because I actually took a picture of 13 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: it today when I was at practice just I can 14 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 1: show my kids. But yeah, talking to Christopher Johnson to practice, 15 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: and I'm just like, I come here and I just 16 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: feel so happy seeing that, and you know, I thank 17 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: them for making me part of the organizations still put 18 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: me in a ring Honor the all time team, So 19 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,639 Speaker 1: it's still kind of dream like. You know what, what 20 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: was the first we've talked before? I mean, I remember 21 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 1: reading the story that we did together on New York 22 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: just dot com and I feel like there's a thousand 23 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 1: different things we can talk to you about. But one 24 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: of my favorite things that that you told me when 25 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: you signed with the Jets. You obviously it's still lived 26 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: in the dorm and just walked to practice every day, 27 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: Like is how weird? Was that? It was really weird, 28 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: But it was kind of an advantage because EVER was 29 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: kind of homesick coming from all over the country. But 30 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: my wife was my wife now was a year behind me, 31 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: so I just stayed in the dorms. So I go 32 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: to practice and still at my backpack from class on 33 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: my hat low and like just kind of blended in, 34 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: like I didn't have a care in the world. I 35 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: had nothing to lose, you know what I mean. So 36 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: UM definitely helped me out. But you were attending practices 37 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: when you were a student there, obviously an accomplished receiver 38 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: at Hofstra, But would you go across the street in 39 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: attend training. Can't practice this before you? When it got 40 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: to try out with the Jets, I had seen it. 41 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: I didn't think much of it, that I'd be out 42 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 1: there someday, but um, it was it was a nice 43 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: thing to have there. UM, especially once I started playing 44 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 1: and I knew everybody there. You know, I was a 45 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: local guy, But um, I missed those days. I miss 46 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: it being in Long Island. Yeah, just a Long Island 47 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: fans are gonna love hearing about. Yeah, because you you 48 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: grew up in Jersey, you live in Jersey, but you 49 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 1: miss it being out there. Yeah, just a lot of 50 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: good memories. I mean when I played, I wish the 51 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: facility was here though, because it's like forty or five 52 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 1: minutes and I could have lived home. But that's why 53 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: I enjoyed my time in Long Island. So can you 54 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: take us and whoever is listening, whether it be video 55 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: or audio whatever, when you were when you found out 56 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: that you were calling to the Godfather by Julian Edelman 57 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 1: and Danny Amondola, Like where were you? What happened? And 58 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: do you almost feel like that's a rite of passage now? Actually, um, 59 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: we got in touch with Avendola. Um, just I had 60 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: been in finance and I was just helping some of 61 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: the younger guys get adjusted to life in the league 62 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: and what comes after the league. And I said, if 63 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: you're ever in town, we'll go out to eat. And 64 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: he said, um, I'm when being town, I said, we'll 65 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: go out and get some good checking farm in New York. 66 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: And uh, he's like, you mind if I bring somebody 67 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: Like sure, He's like, I'm gonna bring an Edelman. Like 68 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: that's great. So we're just talking, had a great dinner 69 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,239 Speaker 1: and they're like, you know, we don't call you Wayne, 70 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: we call you the guy father, the guy father. A 71 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: slap like that. I appreciate that. And they're just talking 72 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: about how they used to watch my film and Amundola 73 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: at a poster me in his in his bedroom, and 74 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: I appreciate. I was humbled by it because those guys 75 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: are great and they certainly carried the torch, you know 76 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: for the slot receivers. But um just you know, I 77 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: was part of the beginning and that is great. And uh, 78 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's just a weird experience thought of 79 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: that way. But what's it? What's it like being in 80 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: the city. You three guys at a table. Are folks like, yeah, 81 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: you wouldn't see that? Is that? Is that? Why is 82 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: that waiting for? And then they're like, oh, there's the 83 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: guy with the beard. Is that Yeah? Did people pop in? Yeah? 84 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: But it was weird because we um all posted a 85 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: picture of the three of us said little put across 86 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: the middle till we die hashtag to Godfather and uh 87 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: but um it just you know, I've never really met 88 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: those guys before, but their respect was mutual. So, um, 89 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to give out him in too much love. 90 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: Obviously everybody else can do that. But what do you 91 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: appreciate about his game? He's this tough guy. Yeah, he's 92 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: he does it right, you know, and he's been doing 93 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: it for a long time and he still haven't figured 94 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: him out, which is great. Keeps adjusted. I mean, it's 95 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: nice to have a quarterback like that for your whole 96 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 1: career that bleesing you. But um, now he wants some 97 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: super Bowls. He's done well for himself. So the question is, 98 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: you know, is he getting nearer Hall of Fame status? 99 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: And I think you know, there's another year or two 100 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: like that, you know, winning super Bowls. He's got a chance. 101 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: What does it mean to you to be recognized as 102 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: the Godfather from two guys that are very successful in 103 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: the slot and almost you know, I feel like you're 104 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: almost a trend setter because you were the slot receiver 105 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: before the slot receiver made it big. Yeah. Um, no, 106 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: it's great. I don't be arrogant, but they really didn't 107 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: have that when I started. Now they drafting guys just 108 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: to be in the slot. But when I started doing 109 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 1: that on third downs and stuff, people like, oh, you're 110 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: best third down receiver this net. And I was offended 111 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: by it. I was like, Oh, I catched the ball 112 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,359 Speaker 1: first and second to him, not like some sub that 113 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: comes on the third down. And my dad's talking to 114 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: me about it, and I said, he said, if I'm 115 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: gonna be you know, coined that phrase, I'm gonna be 116 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: the best there ever was at it, and I kind 117 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: of embraced it and from the fans the third down 118 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: thing and um, just kind of character of my whole career. 119 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: I know the majority of my catches were third or 120 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: first down conversions. That's just kind of happened. Receptions and 121 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:18,559 Speaker 1: definitely over three. Now, you said they didn't really play 122 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: offense like that. Who do you credit for changing that? 123 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: Dan Henning was a parcelves when you go back to 124 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: what you guys did in that transformation where it was like, hey, 125 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: Jets are gonna play different offensive football and they're gonna 126 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: use the receiver a lot differently than what we've seen. Yeah, 127 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: when Henning came in, he did a great job, and 128 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: Charlie Weiss was there, but um, they just put you 129 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: the best position to succeed where your strengths were. So 130 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: they just kept me in there. And you know, I 131 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: did my thing on the inside and the other guys 132 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: did their things on the outside. And this was perfect chemistry. Um. 133 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: Like I said, everybody was doing their strength. But it 134 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: was just uh, some good years with those guys. Did 135 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: you have to ask the coaching staff at the time, 136 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: because we all now or no now about option roths, right, 137 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: you know, you can go this way if they're sitting here, 138 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: if leverage here and things like that. Did you have 139 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: to convince the coaching staff for more freedom? No? No. 140 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: And the great thing was like when Vinnie came in 141 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: and I had the option rounds. I could go left, 142 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: that could go right, I could stop, um just by 143 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: the pre snap read. I could look at Vinnie. He 144 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: looked at me, and he know what I'm doing, because 145 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: obviously he has to be ready to throw the ball. 146 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: But we just kind of had that like special you know, 147 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: you know bond. I guess you could say unspoken bond 148 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: that you know he knew what I was doing, and uh, 149 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: we had a lot of access doing that, a lot 150 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: of success over the years. How rare is that way 151 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: you just described that unspoken bond because you see a 152 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: lot of the very good quarterbacks and very good receivers 153 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: have that bond. But how rare of a thing is 154 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: that to no pre snap, no communication. Yeah, I know, 155 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: Wayne's gonna break this way and if this I sits here, 156 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: I can fire it there. That's just for repetition, you know, 157 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: not just in practice after practice, going over, going over, 158 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: like you know, not the short routes, but when I'd 159 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: have to run steam routes and stuff like that poster 160 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: flag and you know I have a deeper route and 161 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: you know, I'm primary guy. I would look at Vinny, 162 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: he looked at me, and we'd be like do you 163 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: see what I see? And like this is this is 164 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: gonna work. So we were no pre snap, like, you know, 165 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: if it was gonna be successful player, you know, he 166 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: if he could just put it on me, I was 167 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: gonna catch it. But um, that's the kind of stuff 168 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: I miss, Little things like that, you know, little relationships 169 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 1: you have with all your teammates. Like sorry, I just 170 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 1: feel like it's one of those things where when your 171 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: buddies across the room and you both see something that's 172 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: really funny and you look at each other, you just 173 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: start cracking up. I feel like that's the football equivalent. Yeah, 174 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: it's just like you know you're looking at it's exactly 175 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: what it is. And we were best friends on the 176 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: on the field, off the field, and uh, I always said, 177 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,319 Speaker 1: what would my career look like and what would the 178 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: Jets organization look like if he was played for the 179 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: Jets majority of his career. He was only here a 180 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: handful of years, and I think if we had him longer, 181 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: and when we had Bill longer and kept that you 182 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: know core piece together, does no reason we couldn't have 183 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: won a Super bowler too. What do you think most 184 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: about when is brought up? Just the word right? Um, 185 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 1: it's tough to know we were that close because I 186 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: know whoever won the game with the Broncos was going 187 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl. We already killed the Falcons. Um. 188 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: But it's it's interesting people always I assumed we were 189 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: up tend nothing at the half stupid story. I would 190 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: bet my house on that we're up ten and a half. 191 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: And someone showed me We're only up three nothing at 192 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 1: the half, but then we went up ten nothing. I 193 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: was like, wow, So I guess I don't remember the 194 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: game that great, but we were essentially thirty minutes away 195 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: from winning a Super Bowl, I felt, and I'm like, 196 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: we're going right back. And Vinny tears as a chilled 197 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,559 Speaker 1: his first game, and I broke my foot in the 198 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,959 Speaker 1: last season game. So we're during Sunday games. We both 199 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: got our legs up ice on him and we're sitting 200 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 1: there watching the game on TV in his house and 201 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 1: we're like, this was not how it was supposed to be, 202 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: so um and we never really got close after that. 203 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,719 Speaker 1: What did you like most about Vinny Um? And what 204 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: do people not know about him? Because you mentioned how 205 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: good of a man he is. He's a gentleman, a 206 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 1: good husband, a great father. He was so well liked 207 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: inside the locker room. One of the strongest dudes I've 208 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: ever been around. I remember back at Hofstra hit him 209 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: doing all the things, taking care of his body, having 210 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: a low body fat, but his personality. Guys just gravitated 211 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: towards him. Yeah, yeah, pound for pounding is one of 212 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: the strongest guys. But um, yeah, he led by example. 213 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: You know he didn't get in your face, but you knew, 214 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: you know, you better be listening when he's talking in 215 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: the huddle, no one, no one else is talking. But um, yeah, 216 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: he's been a great friend. He's been like a you know, 217 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: big brother kind of figure. Um ten years older than me. 218 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: And his family has been great. Like I knew we 219 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: we met them when he signed, I guess we're on 220 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: the Intrepid. They had something going on in the Trepid. 221 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: I met him and his wife, his young kids, and um, 222 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: they from from day when it was like that, and 223 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: then the first time we got on the field together, 224 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, this is gonna be good. What 225 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: you you had said that? Sorry to bring him up again, 226 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: Edelman and both watch your film but being the Godfather, 227 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: was there anybody that you watched film of that you 228 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: or did you feel like you almost carved your own 229 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: role without looking at anybody in particular, saying I like 230 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: what that guy does, but I want to do a 231 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: little more. Right, Well, I mean they're watching game film. 232 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: I never read a chance to watch game film. But 233 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: you know, I was a big football fan. I loved 234 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: watching guys like Jerry writes. Obviously but guys I really 235 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: took notice. Was like Andre Reid from Buffalo. Guys like 236 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 1: did that kind of stuff playing in the outside, inside 237 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: and outside. But uh, seeing him because you know, Jets 238 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: play twice a year. Um, he's just one of the 239 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: guys larger and him. You guys, I kind of thought of, 240 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: you know, do the same thing they did, you know, 241 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 1: mimic third game Steve Large and Seattle Seahawks. Yeah, that 242 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: asked me. That's a guy who goes under the radar. Yeah, 243 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: why don't we think about history? They asked me. Because 244 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: I was number three in training camp. I don't know 245 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: if anybody knows that. So everybody thought I was a kicker, 246 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: you know. But when it was time the last preseason game, 247 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: Clay was like, what number do you want if you 248 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: meet the team? And he told me it was available. 249 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I want a D if it's available. 250 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 1: So the next day I came in and said it 251 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: the three carbet. It said Aidy Carbett, and I was like, 252 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: you know, I still didn't know if I made a team, 253 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 1: but I'm like they gave me the number. I was like, 254 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: supposed to be a good song. I call my my parents, 255 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: you know, I'm like, uh did She like, did did 256 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: you make it? I'm like I don't know. They're like, 257 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: ask somebody. I'm like, I'm not asking anybody. So I 258 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: was like, said, I'm just gonna go to the meeting. 259 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: They say stay, I'm fine. So that was it. Seen 260 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: the ad crebit up there, I knew that I had 261 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: made it. Speaking of that, well, why don't you retell 262 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: the story because I know a lot of our listeners 263 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,839 Speaker 1: who were out there, a lot of young folks definitely, 264 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: who probably are not familiar with this. In your old words, 265 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: what happened the day when you come over across the 266 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: street from Houstra your report for practice or tryouts in 267 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 1: the spring at that time, I believe, and you're stopped 268 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: at the security gate. What's the background here? No, yeah, 269 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: the same thing coming from class backpack on hot low 270 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: and um you know had that that gate that had opened. 271 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 1: And the guy there, Harry Fisher, never forget it, he 272 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,719 Speaker 1: was like eighty years old. Funny guy just went let 273 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: me in and man, I gotta go to practice. He's like, 274 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,439 Speaker 1: no autographs. I'm like, I'm a player. I said, I 275 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: gotta go to practice, and he's giving me a hard time. 276 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 1: At all. It was hysterical, really, and then someone waved 277 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: me in and I was like, so, me and Harry 278 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: laughed about it forever. Um, he's a great guy. You know, 279 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: he passed recently. But um, that was my first experience 280 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: trying to be an NFL player was getting denied at 281 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: the gate. And was that in the spring. That was 282 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: mini camp. Yeah, and later on one of your old 283 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: heady coaches her mad Words is now, of course, the 284 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: head coach at Arizona State. He famously got locked out 285 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: his gate code wouldn't work at Hofstra, so he scaled 286 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: the gate together. Because her famously used to work out 287 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: every morning, probably still does, God bless him, Ountain Tempy 288 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: four thirty every morning. Yeah, the first guy there. Yeah, yeah, 289 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: he does running those drills to get his treadmill lifting 290 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: a little bit. And I saw one of the shows 291 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: they were showing on the Arizona State football and I 292 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: think they showed him doing the same thing. Yeah, yeah, 293 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: I saw that to Actually, can you tell the story 294 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: you told me once last year about your workout at 295 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: Hofstra and I believe you were between there's some weird correlation. 296 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: You're you're either going to be with the Jets or 297 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: one of was it the Bengals or something. It was 298 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: the Bengals and the Saints or Jets for free agency 299 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 1: and so what can you just tell us the that 300 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: whole story and how you ended up in Green and white. Um, 301 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: you know, I had worked out for a couple of teams, 302 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: um try out sweet and they had a good couple 303 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: of scouts. The Canadian League was looking at you two, right, Yeah, 304 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: I went up there for workout, just to try to 305 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: get looks and um, so when the draft went on 306 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: the first day, obviously I'm not getting drafted, but the 307 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: Saints and the Bengals said maybe they'd picked me up 308 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: in the later rounds. So um. One of the guy's 309 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: name was John Griffin from the from the Bengals. So 310 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: I mean sorry John um Garrett. Yeah, Jay Garrett's brother. 311 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: So when I came in the house, you know, I 312 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: didn't get drafted. I was upset. And then I get 313 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: in the house, Mom was like John Griffin's on the phone, 314 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: like you mean John Garrett. Like no, John Griffin. I'm like, 315 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: who's John Griffin. John Griffin is like, you know from 316 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: the Jets. We want you to come in. Um, you know, 317 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: do a workout for us. I was like, the Jets 318 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: never showed much interest. And then I went in. I 319 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: thought I was going to sign a contract. They're like, no, 320 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: you gotta work out. So they threw me like a 321 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: hundred passes, then dropped one and um, they brought me 322 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: in and they still didn't know if they're gonna sign me. 323 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, there's nothing else I could do more to 324 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: get signed by them. So then they called me and 325 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: my agent. They said, we want to sign your free 326 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: agent contract, and um, my agents lied.

You obviously later took over this establishment, 334 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 1: but he used to be manna raise how about maybe 335 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: how different was maybe for you guys as players to 336 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: get away a little bit, Because I remember a couple 337 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 1: of times i'd see you and Laverneus go over there 338 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 1: and just go upstairs and have your private time kind 339 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 1: of away from it where we don't live in a 340 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: day and age back then of where people got our 341 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: phones or cameras snapping shots, so trying to get video 342 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 1: all of you. Yeah, they didn't have they didn't have 343 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: social media really back then when to play, which is 344 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: a good thing. I don't know how it dealt with that, 345 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: but um, yeah, you really you really can't do anything 346 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: these days and people not knowing about it, and once 347 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: you it's out there and it's there forever. So I'm 348 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 1: kind of glad they didn't have camera phones when I 349 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: was playing. Speaking of Coles, was he also one of 350 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 1: your favorite teammates? Yeah? Um, yeah for our He's a 351 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: great friend, great teammate, and know he's coming to the 352 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 1: game this week. Can't wait to see him. Another guy 353 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: that's a tough guy, strong and uh you know, kind 354 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: of like your brotherhood with those guys. What a dang. 355 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: I just had a question in my head. Now, Oh, 356 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 1: do you ever go back to Ostra? No, not anymore 357 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,159 Speaker 1: once I got rid of football. Yeah, how much did 358 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: that hurt? That hurt because it wasn't expected. I mean, 359 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: they could have talked to the alumni or the former 360 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 1: players and could have raised the money somehow to save 361 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: the program, but it wasn't that much money. But you know, 362 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: they just didn't want anymore. And you know it's a 363 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: shame because we had built it into a pretty good 364 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: one double A program. But um, they did what they 365 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: had to do, and you know I cut cut ties 366 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 1: with them. You know the day they did that. How 367 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: many years has it been, It's been probably what a 368 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 1: decade it you're probably close to it. Yeah, yeah, I 369 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 1: thought of you immediately. Obviously there are other guys who 370 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: played there, but over the years and things like that. 371 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: When you heard that a hostel disbanding the football program, 372 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: was like wow, yeah, so what are you gonna do 373 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: with great great times there? But so shame doesn't continue, 374 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 1: but maybe one day, you know, it'll come back. What 375 00:18:54,720 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: was your favorite uh Parcels story? I mean, you were 376 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: guy who would always put us that down when you 377 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: had to speak, he spoke, you got firm opinions. But 378 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: what was he like for you? Um? It was great 379 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: because I was a massive Giants fan growing up and 380 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: I always wanted to gatorade and build parselves. So Harry 381 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,959 Speaker 1: Carson doing it, but he's like the great Wayne Carbett. 382 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 1: I know you. I know everything about you. I know 383 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: all the cops and the judges in Burdon County because 384 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 1: we're from the same area. He said, Corbet, if you 385 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: don't listen to me, your career it's going down. Heal 386 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: faster than a dump truck would have cement parachute. That's 387 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: what he said to me. And I was like, Wow, 388 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: that's pretty harsh. But he made you play hard for him. 389 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: Hit you know, he hit all the white buttons. And again, 390 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: like I said, if we would have had him more 391 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: years than he was here, I definitely could have seen 392 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl or two. I feel like everyone that 393 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: I've heard tell of parcelf story always says what you 394 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: just said. He knew exactly what button to press for 395 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: what guy at the right time, just to get under 396 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: their skin enough to like really fire them out. I 397 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,439 Speaker 1: feel like that's a that's a skill almost, It's like 398 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: a rare skill to be able to push you still 399 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,119 Speaker 1: keep in contact with him. I've seen him like up 400 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: at Saratoga at the race track and now how all 401 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: of the horses not as much as I used to 402 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: be just don't have time for it.

Let's talk 459 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: about Crowder. Do you like him? I like him a lot. Um. 460 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 1: I like that what he did when he was in Washington, 461 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: and um, you know he's continue to do that and 462 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: you can see when they've made him the focus of 463 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: the offense and some some of those games that he 464 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: could really produce. And um, you know he's not such 465 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: a quick guy. He's fast, you can go deep too, 466 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: But hopefully continue to use him. And you know, I'm 467 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: happy to have him in green and white. And I 468 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: know you like that number because he's wearing eighty two 469 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: right now, Number eighty.

I don't know what they're 471 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 1: gonna do with it, but I think it's safe. They 472 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: kind of messed up that can't give it away. Now 473 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: it's been so lot, people say, do you think they 474 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: retire number?

But if they ever 477 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: give me that call, then I'm getting retired and it 478 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: would be probably one of the best days of my life. 479 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: All right, Well, we'll be looking forward to that day. 480 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 1: Thanks for coming on the Official Jets Party.
