1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Let's bring in Rodney Harrison, who hopefully will 3 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: be in the Hall of Fame one of these days. 4 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 1: Two times Super Bowl champ and an analyst on Football 5 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: Night in America. All Right, rod when you dropped that bomb, 6 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: and I almost chext you to say, are you in 7 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:22,640 Speaker 1: NFL Insider? Now, you must have felt pretty strongly about 8 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: Aaron saying that to say that on Super Bowl Sunday. Yeah, 9 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: when I had a chance to speak with Aaron, we 10 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: spent about fifteen and twenty minutes, and you know, I 11 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: asked him, I was like, how many more years you 12 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: want to play? You're at eight and I'm thinking, hey, man, 13 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna play another extra you know, another seven years 14 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: to get at least fifteen. And he looked at me 15 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 1: and he was like, hey, I tell my teammates all 16 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: the time, but they don't believe me that if I 17 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: win this Super Bowl because how I prepare and the 18 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: way how hard I work on my body year round. 19 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: And obviously, you know, he's mentioned his family like he's 20 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: accomplished everything, so it's very believable. He said, Hey, there's 21 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: you know, there's a chance that I can walk away. 22 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: And I was stunned because I'm thinking, this guy has 23 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: another seven, eight, nine years. And these guys are different. Dan. 24 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 1: Think about these young guys. They make so much money 25 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: in a short period of time. They don't have to 26 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: play twelve fifteen years like you know, like old guys 27 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 1: like me. I played fifteen years. I knew I could 28 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: still play, but I wanted to continue to make that 29 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,559 Speaker 1: extra money. And these these guys, they make so much money, 30 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: especially a guy like him, he's coming off one hundred 31 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: million dollar contract. You think that he's going to come 32 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: back and play. You know what? Right now? I saw 33 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: him at the parade and it was emotional. Let's running back. 34 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: There's a lot of emotional type things. You know, before 35 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 1: you you know, before you initially win that Super Bowl, 36 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 1: your mind is playing tricks on you. After you win 37 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, your mind is playing tricks. I think, 38 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: you know, I would like to see him come back 39 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: and play, because once you walk away, there's no there's 40 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: no coming back, you know what I mean. And you 41 00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: don't want to sit at home and wish you could 42 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: have done this, could have done that. But he's got 43 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: plenty of time this offseason. We'll see what happens. Is 44 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: there a better defensive player that you've seen in history? 45 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: You know what I used to say. I used to 46 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: say Lawrence Taylor. Then I was really really high on 47 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: JJ Watt when he was at the top of his career, 48 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 1: you know, being Defensive Player of the Year over and 49 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: over again. But when I saw Aaron Donald, I just 50 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: saw something different. I saw a guy that I could 51 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: connect with, a guy that I just absolutely fell in 52 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: love with with how hard he plays the game, how tough, 53 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: how passionate he is. And you think about the thing 54 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: that game really changed the course of the game was 55 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: that melee on the sideline when he pushed Virow on 56 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: us and everybody. It didn't just spark him, but a 57 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: Sean Robinson, he got pumped up von Miller Like, that's 58 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: the type of stuff that Aaron Donald does. His passion, 59 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: his aggressiveness, it's infectious to his entire team. Then if 60 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: the Rams could afford to lose one player, or Aaron 61 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: Donald or Sean McVeigh coach or Aaron Donald, if you 62 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: if you had to lose one, let's just say hypothetical. 63 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: You know that Sean went into the broadcast booth or 64 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 1: that Aaron was considering retiring if you had to lose. 65 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: Once you lose the coach, you lose that coach. Because 66 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, then as much as 67 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: I like Sean McVeigh, he ain't out there, you know, 68 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 1: causing disruption, taking on double and triple teams and chips 69 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: and things like that. He's not doing any of that. 70 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: He's sitting back reaping the benefits of having the greatest 71 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 1: player of all time. What was Matthew Stafford's reputation before Sunday? 72 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: He was tough, but a guy that was always limited 73 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: because of where he played. And you know, I respected 74 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: him from Afar. Never thought that he was gonna be 75 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: a world champion, never thought he would get this opportunity. 76 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: And you know, I hear a lot of people screaming 77 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: and yelling hall of Fame, Hall of Fame, and I'm 78 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: not not quite yet. Man. You still got, you know, 79 00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: some work that you got to put in before we 80 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: start to Hall of Fame with Matthew Stafford. How what 81 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: did you think of the Bengals approach to the Rams 82 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: offense after ob J went out? The Bengals approached Yeah, defensively, Well, 83 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: I just felt like, um, I felt like the Rams 84 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: really struggle once O'Dell because I hadn't mentioned before I 85 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: made my pick. I picked the Rams and I said, oh, 86 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: I said O'Dell Beckham he could be Super Bowl MVP 87 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 1: if he wins that matchup against Eli Apple. And it 88 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: looked like he was on his way. A couple big catches, 89 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 1: a touchdown catch and before you before you know it, 90 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: he gets hurt. Then Matthew Stafford saw Cooper Cup getting 91 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: double team and he's trying to figure out, okay, let 92 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 1: me go to Van Jefferson, let me go to Van Jefferson, 93 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: and he just couldn't get it done with Van Jefferson. 94 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: So once O'Dell got taken out, he got hurt, it 95 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: really changed the course of the game. And then at 96 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: the end you saw Matthew Stafford say screw and I'm 97 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: just gonna force the ball to Cooper Cup. Yeah. I 98 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: love how people go, well, Cooper Cup's got to be 99 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: MV beat because he was double teams. And I said, 100 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald's double teamed every time everybody. Yeah, in the 101 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: first half. You know, Cooper Cup's not doubled in the 102 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: first half. It was when Obj went out and They're like, 103 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: we can double this guy. I just still don't understand 104 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: how Eli Apple is on Cooper Cup at the goal 105 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: line single cover it. Let me tell you something. It 106 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: is amazing. And the defensive coordinator, lou on a Rumo, 107 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: he told me before he said, hey, Eli's gotta before 108 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: the game, he said, the most important matchup is Eli 109 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: Apple has to match up be able to match up 110 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: with Odell. And there's no way I'm taking my second 111 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: or third corner and putting them on Cooper Cup on 112 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: the goal line in the most critical moments of the game. 113 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: And that's why I talk about, um, you know, like coaches, man, 114 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: you gotta have a feel like that's Eli Apple against 115 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup, double team him. You can't let the Cooper 116 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 1: Cup have that one on one matchup. It's crazy, Well 117 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,239 Speaker 1: reminded me, and I hate to bring it up. Ellis 118 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: Hobbs on Plexico Burrs where I just went. The Super 119 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: Bowl is over. Like you know, Ellis is what five 120 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: eleven and Plexico is six to five and he's out 121 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: there by himself and the Giant and Eli had to 122 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 1: look over there and go, we just won the Super Bowl. Five. 123 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: It's even worse than that he's like five to nine 124 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: against a guy that was six to five, and you're 125 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,600 Speaker 1: looking like, why are we calling this play here? You're like, okay, 126 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: but and you try to check it and you know 127 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: what happened? Happened? Do you think Tom is truly retired? Brady? 128 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: I would like to see Tom just stay the heck 129 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: away from the game. What more does he have to prove? 130 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: Twenty two years? Man? All those and let me tell you, Dan, 131 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: the thing that you miss out on, you miss out 132 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: on being able to go to your kids recitals at 133 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: eleven o'clock on a Wednesday. That stuff is important man, 134 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: to be able to sit there in the audience and 135 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: watch your daughter. Like I've been blessed enough and fortunate 136 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: enough where I don't miss any football games. I go 137 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: to all the volleyball games. I go to all the 138 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: recitals because you know, my time is free during the 139 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: week and on the weekends, I travel. And that's something 140 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: that that's time that you can never ever get back. 141 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: You can't continue to acquire, you know, trophies and MVPs 142 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: and put up records, but at the end of the day, 143 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: you can't replace that time with your kids and your family. Yeah, 144 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: I agree, but you know he's wired differently, and you 145 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: know you've been doing this for thirty years. It's a sacrifice. Dan. 146 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: If you want to invest more time into your job, 147 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: then guess what You're gonna fill it on the back end, 148 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: because your kids are gonna be like you know, daddy, Daddy, 149 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: you had everything and you missed this and you couldn't 150 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: make it to that. And when you play on that level, 151 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: it's not just you sacrificing your entire team, your entire family, sacrifice, 152 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: your wife, your kids.

But you know, it's 185 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 1: one of those things where I was kind of pulling 186 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: for the you know, the small market team. But I 187 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: really didn't have any stress. It was it was one 188 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 1: of the more enjoyable games for me. You know, when 189 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: the Patriots aren't ended, I'm a crazy I mean when 190 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 1: the Patriots are in and I'm a crazy person. So 191 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: for me, it was it was super relaxed. I didn't 192 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: didn't really it was a concern one way or the other. 193 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: Did you go to the game? I did. I went 194 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: a couple hours early. I was doing some stuff to 195 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: promote Uncharted, so I was there there, was suppressed, had 196 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 1: some meetings with a bunch of people. I jumped from 197 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 1: box to box. Then I left after the first quarter. 198 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: I got home in time to see the halftime show, 199 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: which I thought was the greatest halftime show that I 200 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: had ever seen. It was fantastic. And then I watched 201 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: the rest of the game, but I watched at home 202 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: that had some friends over, my wife had a little 203 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: super Bowl party. It was very enjoyable. What did that 204 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 1: music mean to you growing up? The halftime show. Oh 205 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: my gosh. Well, I remember the first time my brother 206 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: Donnie and I were at Interscope Records and Doctor Dre 207 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: came in with the Chronic and we were there and 208 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: I had already had my record deal, and they were 209 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: talking about whether or not they were going to do 210 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: a deal with death Row, and we heard the record 211 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: and just thought it was one of the best records 212 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: we've ever heard. It is still one of the best 213 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: records to this day. So that music is part of 214 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: my child. But also to see Kendrick now, who's a 215 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: new artist and so talented, I thought I thought he 216 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: was one of the best highlights that And of course 217 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: Mary J.

So for her to still 220 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: be killing it as hard as she is, uh, it's 221 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: absolutely amazing.

I 229 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: used to get in trouble because I would do things 230 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: that we're inappropriate for younger audience over from Europe, and 231 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: I would always get an earfull from from my brother.

Because it 247 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: feels like it goes on a little too long. Yeah, 248 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: it doesn't really end. Although my sons now are becoming 249 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: obsessed with golf, and now that we've got real a 250 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: I could play and be we get to go play 251 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: really cool golf courses and they're seeing lots of cool 252 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: golfers that are actually my friends that are professional. So 253 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: I got a little cool factor on the golf in 254 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: the golf world with my sons. I didn't know that 255 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: you love to prank people so much. What's the best 256 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: prank that you've pulled off? It was probably on the 257 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: Dan Patrick Show when I called Pete Berg and pretend 258 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: to be a guy from Louisiana and I was talking 259 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,599 Speaker 1: about the little altercation that happened on the plane, and 260 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: Pete was trying to say that, you know, that wasn't 261 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: really how it happened, and then he realized it was me. 262 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: The look on his face was classic. I remember, like 263 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: it was yesterday. I was in New Orleans. I think 264 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: I was shooting two guns with Denzel. I was in 265 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: my hotel room, so I'm watching him live as I'm 266 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 1: calling in. That was that was pretty good. That was 267 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: up there. But when you're acting with somebody like Denzel, 268 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 1: did you ever catch yourself going I'm acting with Denzel 269 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 1: in the moment.

And to 278 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: work with guys that are that talented, I always, I 279 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: always get very excited about that. But they know how 280 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: respectful I am, and I'm a student of the game 281 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: and uh but yeah, and then of course I'm also 282 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: fearless in trying anything, so uh, you know that those 283 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: are some of the greatest experiences that I've had, and 284 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 1: I carry those experiences on and and try to share 285 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: those experiences when working with young actors like Tom Holland. 286 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: Did you cry when Tom Brady announced he was retiring. No, 287 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: I was just happy for him. I was happy, you know, 288 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: for me. He's done so much for New England, He's 289 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: done so much for football. You know, for us to 290 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: you know, to win that many championships, uh, you know, 291 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: six titles, it's a blessing whatever he wants to do, 292 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: more than supportive and and and just you know, happy 293 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: for him. I was watching Perfect Storm, it was on 294 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: last night, and there's there's the scene when you guys 295 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: are drowning. Now, how do you how do you act 296 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: like you're drowning? Well, you know, it's actually it was 297 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: pretty helpful, and that we were in the tank at 298 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: Warner Brothers. You've got the wave machines going the rain 299 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: and all that stuff, and there are guys because the 300 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: shot of me, especially when they're fading away and I'm 301 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: supposed to be in the middle of the ocean. The 302 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: mark itself is so critical for focus that you have 303 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: guys Scooba, guys under the water holding my feet to 304 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: keep me in position, but they don't realize where the 305 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: waves are in relation to where my head is, so 306 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: they're holding me in that position. Then when the waves 307 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: go up, I'm submerged and I'm like trying to get away, 308 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: and you know, swim away. That's your first instinct, right, 309 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: It's to swim. But so it was it was pretty 310 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: scary That was a pretty sketchy time to shoot that 311 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: because I didn't want to mess up a take. Wolfgang 312 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: would would not have been happy with me, our filmmaker. 313 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: But was there any thought of like the ending like that? 314 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: You know, we normally have Hollywood endings. I like when 315 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: you have a real ending, an ending that makes you think, 316 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: but you know you and George Clooney dye. Yeah, I mean, 317 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: well it's a true story. You know, many many a 318 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: fisherman has gone out to provide us to sim bull 319 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: pleasures of eating fish for dinner and not come back, 320 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: especially in the Flemish cap and uh and places like that. 321 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: So you know those guys you know that are on 322 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: the Andrea Gale, they didn't come back. You have this 323 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: new movie with Tom Holland and he's sort of the 324 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: it guy right now. Can you give him advice on 325 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: dealing with whatever it is that he's going to deal with? 326 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: I mean, have you been in that moment, that level 327 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: where it's like whatever you do, whoever you're dating, wherever 328 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 1: you go, TMZ, they're all there waiting for you. Yeah. 329 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: I mean things have changed quite a bit with social 330 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: media since I was his age, but he's had a 331 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: lot of success in a very short amount of time. 332 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: But he's he's comes from a great family. He really 333 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: has his head on right, and he's you know, he's disciplined, 334 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: he works hard. He knows that this kind of success 335 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: in big ip like like Spider Man or even Uncharted, 336 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: is very different from you being above the title on 337 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: your own an original movie. So he's he's really out 338 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: there to do great things in between that showcases talent 339 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 1: and ability as an actor, and I think he's gonna 340 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,360 Speaker 1: have a very long career. Explained this movie and how 341 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: it came up. So this movie actually came up in 342 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 1: for me two thousand and nine, I just finished The Fighter. 343 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: David o'russell and I attached ourselves to do and Charted. 344 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: I was playing the role of Nathan Drake. I have 345 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 1: since now aged out to playing the Rolelly the Elder Statesman, 346 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 1: but you know, I embraced that. It was one of 347 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: those things that when I did get the call, I 348 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,439 Speaker 1: was a bit surprised because I'm like, all right, well 349 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: we got Uncharted going again. I hope you're ready. I 350 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: was like, absolutely, I'm ready. And I was like, who's 351 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 1: the other guy, because you know, before we had de Niro. 352 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: So I was like, maybe we get de Niro back, 353 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,880 Speaker 1: or maybe we get Jack Nicholson, or you know, somebody 354 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 1: great and like Tom Holland, I was like, what do 355 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: you mean to Holland. I had to put two and 356 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: two together, and I just realized, oh my god, you 357 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: want me for the old guy. But then I realized 358 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 1: the benefits of being in the helicopter barking orders is 359 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 1: supposed to, you know, having to be thrown out of 360 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: a plane or hanging from a cable for twelve hours 361 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: a day for six months. So I embraced it, and 362 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: it's much better me kind of playing age appropriate roles. 363 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 1: And imagine me trying to play the twenty five year 364 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: old running around with a bad back and a bad knee. 365 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: It wouldn't it wouldn't have looked good. It's a tougher 366 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: to add weight or lose weight. Oh, it's much tougher 367 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: to add weight. It's just it's fun for a week 368 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: and then you know, I just put put thirty pounds 369 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: on for a role and I'm still feeling it's just 370 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: still bothering me. So I lost a weight since, But 371 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: it just does a lot to your body, but nothing 372 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 1: worse than being on a full stomach and then having 373 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: to eat again. It's it's the worst. Well, that's how 374 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: you win Academy awards, you know, when you have the 375 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: transformation right, either lose weight or gain weight. Well, I 376 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: think for me, if the role calls where I played 377 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: a guy who was you know, started out as a boxer, 378 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 1: and then he became he tried to become an actor, 379 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 1: and then after that he wanted to go into the priesthood. 380 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,479 Speaker 1: After he had a terrible accident, had a visit from 381 00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: Mother Mary, went into the priesthood, and then he came 382 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: down with a rare muscular degenitive disease IBM and his 383 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 1: physicality basically deteriorated, but a spirituality sword. So he had 384 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: put on a lot of weight and what was once 385 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: this kind of you know, really kind of uh fit guy, 386 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 1: you know, everything just kind of turned to mush and 387 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 1: so you know I had to you know, portray that 388 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: in an honest way before we let you go.

I went into the mail 433 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: room yesterday and I opened up the package and I go, 434 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 1: somebody sent me vodka. I started asking, there's no note 435 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: in there, and I started saying, who's sending me vodka? 436 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,439 Speaker 1: And then Fritzie goes Junior is. I said, all right, 437 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: we'll get Junior on the phone. You got my attention 438 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 1: with vodka there. So you and Amy are deciding to 439 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:07,439 Speaker 1: do this together. Yeah, We've been talking to Sugarlands for 440 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: several years about trying to figure out what we could 441 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: do together. They make a lot of different products, from 442 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: moonshine to bourbon, and they got a really really cool 443 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 1: bourbon called Roaming Man that's won a lot of awards 444 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 1: across the country. But anyhow, they wanted to make a 445 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: vodka and they make it all in house right there 446 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, and they they just had a lot 447 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: of success. So we thought, if we're going to do this, 448 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 1: we want to do it with the right people. So 449 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 1: it's a great product and we're real proud of it. 450 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: So kind of starting to launch that slowly across the 451 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: country over the next several months. We're going down to 452 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: Daytona this weekend for the Daytona five hundred, and we've 453 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 1: got a few launch parties down there in Daytona tonight 454 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: and tomorrow night, so it should be a lot of fun. 455 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: So I think it'll be. I think it'll be a 456 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 1: pretty good success. What did you drink after you'd win 457 00:22:55,720 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 1: a race? When I would win a race, then the 458 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: adrenaline's pumping through your body no matter where you finished, 459 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 1: you couldn't go to sleep, and you you know, so 460 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: I always went home and I'd stay up till two, three, 461 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 1: four o'clock in the morning, just trying to calm down, 462 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: and I drank beer, Budweiser, bud Light. I was pretty 463 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: loyal to Budweiser because they were so great to me 464 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: early in my career, and that's what i'd still drink 465 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 1: to day and housing Bush products. When it comes to beer, well, 466 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: when you get into the Winter's Circle champagne, you're actually 467 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 1: drink in the champagne or just sprayed on you, you 468 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: almost feel obligated to take a drink of it. Right. 469 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: You like to spray it everywhere, right, get it all 470 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: over the place. But it's sort of involves it. It's 471 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 1: a great way to get everyone involved in the celebration. 472 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: If there's no confetti, you want to spray champagne on everybody, 473 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: but you feel obligated to drink some of the champagne. 474 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: It's baby bad luck if you don't have a drink 475 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 1: of the champagne from bottle. Did you ever screw up 476 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 1: the sponsors after you win and you want to thank everybody. 477 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: I don't think I ever made a mistake that I 478 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: can remember, but you often forgot to mention your sponsors, 479 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: and they want you to mention them right every opportunity, 480 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: every interview, if they come up to interview before the race, 481 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: before qualifying, after anything you've ever done, uh, they want 482 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,160 Speaker 1: you to mention your spot sponsors. And I was never 483 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: really good at that, but I kind of got a 484 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: pass um uh with with that kind of thing. And 485 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: we were doing so much um oh oh, I just 486 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: saw them. I saw your daughter, tell Amy heard her coming. 487 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: I heard the little bit of patter of the feet coming. 488 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, we're getting ready to introduce you to Nicole. 489 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: Let me let me see her. She done took off, 490 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: she's she's she doesn't took off around the corner. But no, 491 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: that's I think, was it? Amy? Grabbed her. That was Tammy. Tammy. 492 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: Tammy helps out around. Okay, she's your crew chief around them. Yeah, 493 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 1: keep thinking straight around here are our drivers made? Are 494 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: you born a driver or do you become a driver? 495 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: You know, I think it depends. I think when you 496 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: if you're family raced like mine did, it's uh, it's 497 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: very you know, it's common to hear people say, man, 498 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: you were born into this, and you really are. You're 499 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: You're you're you you are what you're exposed to. Right, 500 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: So if you're born in an environment, you kind of 501 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 1: are infect you know that you're kind of infected with 502 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 1: that passion and you're you're you're steered, uh to be 503 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: interested in certain things that you're exposed to. So if 504 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: you grew up around racing, here's race jop in the 505 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: backyard and there's race cars around all the time, Yeah, 506 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 1: you're born into it. But when you look at a guy. 507 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: For example, my career kind of paralleled with a guy 508 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: named Matt Kinsis and we were pretty good friends, and 509 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 1: he was not born into it. Racing was something he 510 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: discovered and you know, he was sort of a he 511 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: didn't have a last name like me, and he didn't 512 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: have all the keys to all the doors to unlock 513 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 1: and walk right through. And he was kind of a 514 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: self made racer and had to learn the craft and 515 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: develop his skills really from his own experiences. And so 516 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: it just depends really about you know where you are 517 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 1: and who you are and who you know and what 518 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 1: you're exposed to at a very young age. But do 519 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 1: you think your daughters are going to have that racing gene? No, 520 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: you know, I don't. I don't know that. I don't 521 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: know that you have the gene. I don't know that 522 00:26:56,119 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: there's a there's a certain real attribute that you can 523 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: you can be born with. It makes you're a great 524 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:09,239 Speaker 1: race car driver. I think that you know, you just 525 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: either have it or you don't, and you can develop talent, 526 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: but you have to go out there and you have 527 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 1: to drive, and you definitely need people around you that 528 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: are helping you understand the mistakes you're making on the 529 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: race track and why you need to do certain things, 530 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: and how to run the line and how to get 531 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 1: around the track and go fast. Some people, I mean, 532 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: it's been the hardest thing to really understand. You'll you'll 533 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: see a guy race and they will be so fast 534 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 1: and there's no explanation for why they're this good. Like 535 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: Kyle Larson, for example, right where did his ability come from? 536 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: This guy can win and drive anything on dirt, any 537 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: type of horsepower, any type of car. He seems to excel. 538 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 1: Kyle Bush is the same way. They just have this 539 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: real raw ability to connect to the car. And I 540 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,479 Speaker 1: always felt like that the best way to describe it 541 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: was is when you're when things are working really good, 542 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 1: you and the car almost feel like one thing, right 543 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: you almost it fits you like a glove, and you 544 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 1: that car is like an extension of you. It's like 545 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 1: your arm or your leg. You know how to work 546 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: and move it just like you've been living with it 547 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 1: your entire life. And so there's moments where you'll see 548 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: that in certain drivers, and those are those are the 549 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: elite ones. Though. You know, there's guys that are good, 550 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: there's guys that are pretty decent, and there's guys that 551 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: are talented. But then there's this one little group that 552 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: just has something special that everyone else doesn't have, you know, 553 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 1: and it's a rare, once in a generation kind of talent. 554 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: Could you drive any racetrack? Is there a racetrack you 555 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 1: could drive? One lap? With your eyes closed. Yeah. I mean, 556 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: I think when we raced at Daytona and Talladega, when 557 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 1: you know, when you're in the lead of the draft 558 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: and you got forty you know cars behind you, you're 559 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: looking in the mirror. You know, you're driving the race 560 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: car looking out the windshield, but you're also looking the mirror, 561 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: watching what's going on behind you. Probably three quarters of 562 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: the lap, you might run almost a whole lap like 563 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: watching that mirror. And the great thing that we develop 564 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: as drivers, and I think that probably all athletes have 565 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: this ability, especially I would assume like a cornerback in 566 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: the NFL would have amazing peripheral vision and they can 567 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: actually focus on an object in front of them or 568 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: a person, but also see other things happening around them 569 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: and make adjustments based on what they see in their 570 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: peripheral vision. And that's what a race car driver does. 571 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: And so I can look in the mirror and really 572 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:57,479 Speaker 1: focus on trying to defend anything that's coming from behind 573 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: me to maintain the lead. But also as I'm focusing 574 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: on that, I'm actually still seeing what's out the windshield 575 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: in my prefuel vision and understanding where I'm at on 576 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: the racetrack. So yeah, it's it's it's a pretty uh, 577 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: it's a pretty interesting thing when you think about it. 578 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: But when you do something for so many years, you 579 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 1: develop those type of skills. He's Dale Junior. He and 580 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: his wife Amy have partnered with Sugarlands to launch their 581 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: own vodka brand called High Rock. Visit high Rock vodka 582 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: dot com. How often would you flip somebody off when 583 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 1: you were driving? Um? I probably did it that. See, 584 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: flipping somebody off is it's pretty bad? Oh okay, yes, 585 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: well you know it's in a race car. You're not 586 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: able to speak to each other, right, I can't. I 587 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 1: can't cush you out. If you're in another car and 588 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: we're banging and you did something I'm mad about, I 589 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: can't cush you, and so really slipping you off is 590 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,719 Speaker 1: about the only thing I can do to show you 591 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: that I'm angry. And Well, you can bump into somebody, 592 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 1: Well yeah I can do that. Yeah, but I I 593 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 1: like how that's acceptable. But hey, you can bang into 594 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: my cart, just don't flip me off, because then I'm 595 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: really I've never I've never really understood this, but I 596 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: learned this from guys like Rusty Wallace. And the people 597 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: that uh, you know, I grew up watching that. For 598 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 1: some reason, that sets you, that sets them off. You 599 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: know that for some reason, that's a very unethical thing 600 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 1: to do. Now, outside of the racetrack, by all means, 601 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: you know, everybody flipping everybody off, no big deal, um, 602 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 1: given the bird is you know what you would expect 603 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: in any other circumstance. But on the racetrack, for some reason, 604 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: when you get flipped off, it sends you into a rage. 605 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: And unlike any other situation. Uh, and you you don't 606 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: want to be flipped off. I don't know why that's 607 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: such a big deal. On the racetrack. For some reason, 608 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: that's super that's way more offensive. And you're racing the 609 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: race car to be flipped off than it is to 610 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: be flipped off in any other scenario. I don't really 611 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: know how to understand, you know, how to articulate that 612 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: or explain why that's the case. But you your football 613 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: team is now known as the Commanders, Junior. Are you 614 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 1: okay with that? It is what it is is happening, right, 615 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: So that's not a raining endorsement, are you? Well? All right? 616 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: So I'll be honest, like I was hoping it would 617 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 1: be the Warriors, because that sounded like, um easy, it's easy, 618 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: Washington Warriors. That was an easy thing to say. I 619 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: knew that it was probably unlikely because you know, somebody's 620 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: out there trademarking and copyrighting and you know, trying to 621 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: you know, trying to get a pile of cash for 622 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: the rights to use something like that. And I have 623 00:32:53,760 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: no idea how they determined or decided on Commanders. I don't, 624 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: I was. I don't know how those meetings went. I was, 625 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: I had no clue what the name was up until 626 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: everyone else found out at the same time. And uh, 627 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: I don't you know. I think I wasn't super in 628 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: love with it at first, but I wasn't in love 629 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: with Washington football team either when it first came out, right, 630 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: And then a year later, here we are going, well, 631 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: I'm kind of okay with that now. I was just, 632 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: you know, I was just leave leave it football team. 633 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: That's good. Well, we weren't thinking that a year ago. 634 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 1: We hated it, right or two years ago, and so, 635 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 1: you know, Commanders sounded weird at first, but I think 636 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: with each passing day it gets normalized and it gets okay, right, 637 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: it gets and look at it. I mean when you 638 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: really think about it. Uh, you know, looking at all 639 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: the other teams names, I mean, they're not extraordinary. There's nothing, 640 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 1: you know, there's nothing that really jumps off the page 641 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 1: when you look at all the they're just names. And 642 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: if if they ever came up for sale, Yeah, would 643 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: you be a part of I don't have that kind 644 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: of money, Uh dan No, I mean this is billions 645 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: of dollars. This is gonna take part of a group. 646 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I don't know that i'd be interested. I 647 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: don't know that i'd be interested in that, to be 648 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: honest with Yet, you know, it would be such a 649 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 1: I would be such a small fraction of the ownership 650 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,839 Speaker 1: that it wouldn't I don't know what I would get 651 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: out of that.
