He is losing to the dog Peter, 30 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 3: but it's a respectable five point seven percent. 31 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: I think he's okay.

How close did you come to coaching Stanford football? 47 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 5: Not close at all. 48 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 2: You had no interest, no, no interest, no desire. 49 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 5: Wasn't right for me? 50 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 2: Okay, I thought that that's as close as you can 51 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: get to replicating what it's like to play. You have 52 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 2: no interest in replicating that feeling. 53 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 6: No. 54 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 5: Look, I volunteer coach for two years at Pwelltahigh School 55 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 5: before before taking the GM job, was the freshman offensive 56 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 5: coordinator uh in JV. 57 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 2: But were you good? 58 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 5: No, I don't think I was very good. I don't 59 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 5: think I was. It's I do think I do think 60 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 5: there's some truth to what you said, Dan about it's 61 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 5: the It's probably the closest thing to replicating what it's 62 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 5: like to playing, but not right for me. I want 63 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 5: to have an incredible respect for the coaching profession to 64 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 5: uh for my life, our family. What Stanford football needs 65 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 5: and needed a year ago and needs now like I'm 66 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 5: I'm in, I'm in the perfect spot. 67 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 2: Explain what your role is. 68 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 5: Uh So I'm the general manager of the team. I 69 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 5: I think maybe in some ways also act like a 70 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 5: team president or an athletic director just for football. Do 71 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 5: a lot of fundraising, a lot of spreading the good word. 72 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 5: I feel like a like an evangelical preacher barnstorman you 73 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 5: know the country, you know, to proselytizing about Stanford football. 74 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 5: Roster management certainly made have made coaching changes, you know, 75 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 5: the short tenure and hired Tavita Pritchard ours our as 76 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 5: our head coach and helping him with staff. And look, 77 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 5: we's what's still so unique about college sports as we 78 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 5: Stanford football exist within Stanford University's ecosystem, right like it's 79 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 5: we're part of this amazing institution of higher ed. So 80 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,039 Speaker 5: building bridges with the academy. I mean, we have one 81 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 5: hundred and nine guys on the team, let's say, eighteen 82 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 5: to twenty two year olds. They're amazing. They also, like 83 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 5: eighteen to twenty two year olds, do some dumb stuff, 84 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 5: like I still do dumb stuff, Like we all did 85 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,039 Speaker 5: dumb stuff, and it's uh so working with them every 86 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 5: day is a blast. And yeah, it's a little bit 87 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 5: of everything. It's a little bit of everything, a lot 88 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 5: of learning on the job. 89 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 2: Dan given nil if you were coming out of high school? 90 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 2: Would you have still gone to Stanford? 91 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 5: I would have look on what three or four years ago? 92 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 5: I'm not sure. You know, we we we were a 93 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 5: little slow to adapt and and embrace the changes. But 94 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 5: today app I was talking to Christian McCaffrey about this 95 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 5: last week, we we we we saw each other. Was 96 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 5: asking his perspective on it, and and and he was he's, 97 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 5: I'm sure he'd say it. If you're sitting right here, 98 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 5: he'd go to Stanford again. Right. We have a unique 99 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 5: value proposition, and I do know we are serious about football. 100 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 5: And if you're a serious football player that also has 101 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 5: the academic qualifications, the grades, you know we're the place 102 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 5: for you. 103 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 2: But as far as money goes, yeah, and I have 104 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 2: somebody who's a great source on this. You got to 105 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: have around forty million dollars if you want to be 106 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 2: a top end football program. That feels like in the 107 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 2: in the treasure trove there the collectives you're nil? Is 108 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 2: that a fair number? Do you think a n Stanford 109 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 2: in that? 110 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 5: I'm not. I won't get into our numbers or any 111 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 5: other numbers. I know. I don't see the balance sheets, 112 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 5: you know, including collectives, but it's it's a murky market. 113 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 5: There's there's there's not much transparency to it. I think 114 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 5: there are certainly schools and programs that seem willing to 115 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 5: do whatever it takes, you know, to get there. We 116 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 5: think we can do it our way and be competitive 117 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 5: and look the person the pudding, right, we got to 118 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 5: go out and play games. You got to go out 119 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 5: and put a winning product on the field. You got 120 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 5: to teach great football. You got to coach great football. 121 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 5: And I think we have that with our young men 122 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 5: in the locker room and our coaching staff. 123 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 2: But how is it when you're negotiating with somebody who 124 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 2: wants money? Yeah, how does that work? Do you talk 125 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 2: to the player, the agent, the parents? 126 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 5: It's the full spectrum. 127 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 6: But what is that like? 128 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 5: You got players certainly representing themselves, You've got agents, and 129 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 5: then you have the full continuum of agents, right from 130 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 5: those who have been doing it for a long time, 131 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 5: from those just starting out on the journey, parents as well. Certainly, 132 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 5: each one creates a little bit of a different dynamic 133 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 5: with its own challenges. I also have a great assistant GM. 134 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 5: You know, I'm a people pleaser, Dan, So if I 135 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 5: it's still part of college is recruiting right, and fall 136 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 5: in love with the kid, and and and selling Stanford. 137 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 5: So you know, I get compromise and negotiation fairly quickly. 138 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 5: You know, what, do you want? Five million day? Okay, 139 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 5: I'll give it to you. Let's make a seven, let's 140 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 5: go here you go. You're I but it's uh, it's 141 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 5: it's a it's a muscle. I'm wanting to exercise as well. Absolutely, Okay. 142 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: Uh, what do you miss about football? 143 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 5: You know? The elements of football that I do miss 144 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 5: are part of why I'm back in the game in 145 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 5: this role right as as a general manager, having a role, 146 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 5: being on a team. Game days are fun, like I 147 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 5: I forgot, Like I actually sort of enjoy the stress 148 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 5: of are we gonna you know, win or not? Like 149 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 5: it's it's exhausting. Uh, in a in a real way. 150 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 2: How does the loss affect you when you're the GM 151 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 2: as opposed to a quarterback. 152 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 5: Uh, you're not as physically hurt. I don't miss don't 153 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 5: miss getting hit. Okay, I don't miss getting hit. I 154 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 5: think you asked different questions the area were sporting our 155 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 5: coaches enough, Like there's no waiver wire in the NFL, 156 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 5: there's no you don't sign in college like there is 157 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,119 Speaker 5: in the NFL. You don't sign guys off the street 158 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 5: to a place. So you think about, you know, how 159 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 5: are we developing our guys? What are Do we have 160 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 5: enough of what we need for the future?

I did 167 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: not know this, but people at Stanford sent this to me. 168 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 2: Stanford's one of five schools to produce a US president 169 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 2: and a Super Bowl winning quarterback.

Herbert Hoover was our president. 183 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's not famous. 184 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, Larry Page and Serge oh h very rich.

Did you play with a like a defensive 194 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 2: player's mentality or am I overrating then? 195 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 5: I don't know. The last time I played defense was 196 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 5: I think seventh or eighth grade, and I got to 197 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 5: play defensive end. I enjoyed it, not as much as 198 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 5: I enjoyed quarterback. I did relish the opportunities to hit people. 199 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 5: They were few, but when they popped up, it was 200 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 5: I enjoyed that. 201 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 2: But when you would throw an interception, you wanted to 202 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 2: make the time. 203 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 5: There was part of me that did. And you know, 204 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 5: it's some of that, and I certainly if there's young 205 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 5: quarterbacks out there that I'm talking to, some of that 206 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 5: takes a toll, right, And there's there's part of being 207 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 5: a quarterback that you've got to But. 208 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 2: Can you do what Peyton did and just go into 209 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 2: a fetal position. 210 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 5: I'm not your went to a fetal position. 211 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 2: He went down. He wasn't going to try to make 212 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 2: a tackle there. 213 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, I played the way I played. I'm not sure 214 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 5: if I could have done it anyway else. 215 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 2: When you look at the game, it used to be 216 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 2: that college and the pros were very different. Now the 217 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 2: NFL has taken a lot of what college football does. 218 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 2: Are they still doing that that what you run offensively 219 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 2: is what a lot of these NFL teams are doing, 220 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 2: or making the transition easier for these quarterbacks to take 221 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 2: your like you know Cam Newton, they Carolina took his 222 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 2: system at all. Aren't just to make it easier? You know, 223 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: the transition. 224 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 5: There's a couple questions there. One the transition of quarterbacks 225 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 5: from college to the NFL, which which can be you know, 226 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 5: can be a tough one. I know how I was 227 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 5: trained at Stanford with Jim Harbaugh and David Shaw and 228 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 5: Greg Roman. Was a was an incredible training ground to 229 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 5: come into an NFL and run, you know, a Bruce 230 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 5: Arians offense and and handle some sophistication in the run 231 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 5: game and in the past game. I do think, uh, 232 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 5: franchises need to be very honest about what their quarterbacks need, 233 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 5: especially rookie quarterbacks, because it's a lot. It's a lot 234 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 5: on a young man's plate, and it's a tough position, right, Uh, 235 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 5: a really tough position. And then as far as the 236 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 5: the constant evolution of offenses, I I do think college 237 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 5: because of the breadth and at all levels, you know, 238 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 5: including you know, especially fcs and then FBS, people try 239 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 5: stuff right they do. It's it's almost like a Petri 240 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 5: dish for offense. And I know part of what what 241 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 5: I enjoyed my last year playing in the NFL with 242 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 5: Nick sirianni and and Frank Reich as we'd watched we'd 243 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 5: watch film of what I was was doing in the 244 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,839 Speaker 5: RPO game and install the what we thought we could 245 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 5: we could do well yeah. Absolutely, Look, you've got to 246 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 5: look for an edge on offense, right. If you get 247 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 5: too stagnant, you die. And and I think that'll always happen. 248 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 5: I think I think that will continue to happen where 249 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 5: college is a bit of a bit of a you know, 250 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 5: try it out area. 251 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 2: What role did your wife play in your decision to retire? 252 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 5: Oh? I retired and she she was six maybe seven 253 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 5: months pregnant with our eldest, and she was loving being pregnant. 254 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 5: And once I felt supported by her no matter what, 255 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 5: you know, through it all, and so she was just 256 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 5: there support. I didn't. I didn't feel alone through it 257 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 5: and helpful, helpful. 258 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 2: But you run it by you know, you're it's going 259 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 2: to be a big weekend.

I 393 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 11: was kind of really analytical. But I'll tell you this though. 394 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 11: When I got you lined up, Dan, it was lights out. 395 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 11: It was ninety nine. 396 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 5: Really. 397 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 11: I was a big time hitter and no quick. That's 398 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 11: how football was back then. 399 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 5: Though. 400 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 11: You know, big safety Steve Atwater, Ronnie Lott, Dennis Smith, 401 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 11: that's what Kenny Easy, those were all my heroes, man. 402 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 11: So that's that's kind of how the game was played then. 403 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 2: That count. 404 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 6: Oh let's see, well there was two. 405 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 11: Guys, right, So there was my rookie year when I 406 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 11: was with the Falcons, was with Jerry Glanville. I I 407 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 11: know I had a concussion in that game, but that 408 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 11: was before like concussion protocols became like what they are now. 409 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 11: I mean, I just remember Scott Case and them looking 410 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 11: at me going like he was like, dude, you you 411 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 11: don't know what's going on to you. I was like, no, 412 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 11: not at all. 413 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 2: So every plant like it was a it was a 414 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 2: preseason Scott Case would know. 415 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 11: Scott Case was like one of the like true like 416 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 11: football assassins back in the day. So I hit this 417 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 11: kid named Lynn James from from Cleveland in a preseason game. Unfortunately, 418 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 11: I think it wound up like cracking a bone in 419 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 11: his neck and he had to retire, and I was 420 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 11: I was like not altogether at that point in time, 421 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 11: I didn't even know what I was doing. I was 422 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 11: just kind of like remember dropping down into like this 423 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 11: robber type coverage and saw the ball thrown and hit 424 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 11: him about as hard as I possibly could. A guy 425 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 11: named Frankie Smith, one of our defensive backs. His finger 426 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 11: got caught in between my helmet and the shoulder pad 427 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 11: ripped the tip of. 428 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 6: His finger off. 429 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 11: It was a nasty play and I was concussed during 430 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 11: the play. So I don't even remember what the hell 431 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 11: really happened. Because I had hit Kevin Mack earlier in 432 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 11: that game. That's what it happens, So you know what 433 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 11: Kevin Mack is like. I think there there was that 434 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 11: one Vincent Brisbee from the Patriots in our playoff game 435 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 11: in ninety five. I clocked him pretty darn good. I 436 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 11: had a couple of them. Nate Terrell Fletcher from this 437 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 11: from the Chargers out in San Diego. Once I caught 438 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 11: him on the sideline, flipped him like a bowling pin. 439 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 6: Once I saw some pretty good ones. 440 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 2: Do you run into these guys and does this come up? 441 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 11: No, I haven't seen a lot of those. I haven't 442 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:57,199 Speaker 11: seen a lot of those dudes. But you know what, 443 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 11: that's how we used to do it. You remember the 444 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 11: late great Eric Turner safety from the Browns who passed away. Yeah, 445 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 11: probably one of the fiercest hitters I've ever seen ever, 446 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 11: like this guy. 447 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 6: That's how football was though back then. That's how it 448 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 6: used to be. 449 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 2: I remember Rodney Harrison telling me that he faced Jerry Rice. Yeah, 450 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 2: Jerry came over the middle. Rodney said, I don't care 451 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 2: who he is. He clocked him. 452 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 6: You know, it's funny. 453 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 2: Got fined for it, but he said, I he goes. 454 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 2: I had to let Jerry Rice know who I was, 455 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 2: and you don't come over the middle. 456 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 11: Then I have the funniest damn story about Jerry Rice. Okay, 457 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 11: so we're playing San Francisco Monday Night Football nineteen ninety 458 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:43,400 Speaker 11: six in Atlanta, and that's when Steve was there, and 459 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 11: Brent Jones I believe, was still there. Ricky was the 460 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 11: running back waters and all anyway, Jerry runs a slant 461 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 11: and I had him lined up and Steve overthrew him, 462 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 11: and I'm screaming in Jerry's face. I'm like, expletive, expletive expletive, 463 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 11: like you're so lucky you didn't catch that ball. 464 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:02,439 Speaker 1: You're so lucky. 465 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 6: And I'll tell you what. 466 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 11: I don't know if I can get up, but I 467 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 11: literally like he looks at me and he grabs my 468 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 11: shoulder pad and he turns me around and looks looks 469 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 11: up my name plate with backs and he goes, who 470 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 11: are you? 471 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 6: And walks away.

And look, honestly, 493 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 11: I think that ninety six season I played against some 494 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 11: really good teams that year, man, I mean we played 495 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 11: against I mean Dallas was still rolling at that time. 496 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 6: That might have been ninety two to ninety three. I 497 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 6: played against. 498 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 11: Brett Farr, we played, we played all the great quarterbacks 499 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 11: back then. I mean, there were some this really really 500 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 11: dominant teams in the early nineties. 501 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 2: But I remember Mike Hombrin telling me about Far. He said, 502 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: what's it like coaching him? He said, well, he loves 503 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 2: degree of difficulty. That guy's open, but that guy's got 504 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 2: three guys covering him. He was covered by three. 505 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 6: That seems like Brett. That seems like, you know, I 506 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 6: first met Brett. 507 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 2: But could you fool him into making him make those 508 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: difficult throws? 509 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 6: Now? 510 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 11: Interestingly enough, Okay, so I played against Brett when he 511 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 11: was in his rookie season, when Sterling, Sharp and all 512 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 11: of them were still there in the early nineties. 513 00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 6: Could you full Brett into it? 514 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 11: I don't know, necessary really think that Brett really cared 515 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 11: if you were trying to fall in. 516 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 6: He's gonna do what he wanted to do. 517 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 11: So whether or not he read the coverage right or not, 518 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 11: it didn't really matter. He's just throwing what he's doing 519 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 11: what he wants to do because he had he had 520 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 11: that kind of like arm arrogance that guys like Stafford 521 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 11: have now where it doesn't really matter what you do 522 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 11: because they know there's like only about you know, maybe 523 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 11: a handful of guys who've ever walked the face of 524 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 11: the earth who can fit a ball into a spot 525 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 11: that maybe no one else can, so they do it anyway. 526 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 6: Those are guys who are like Elway was kind of 527 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 6: like that. 528 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 11: Like when you played against John you knew that he 529 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 11: had that go go gadget arm and could throw it 530 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 11: a mile and he could also run, and he just 531 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 11: had that look on his face like I don't really 532 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,679 Speaker 11: care what you do. It's about what I do. And 533 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 11: those those dudes are special man. And yeah, Brett Brett 534 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 11: was like that. 535 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 2: Talking to Lewis Riddick of the Mothership. You strike me 536 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 2: as somebody who doesn't make their Super Bowl pick on Monday. Hmm, 537 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 2: that you might wait until Friday or Saturday. 538 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 11: Yeah, that's yeah, that's part of my analytical name. 539 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 5: Man. 540 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 2: But is there something that you could see that's going 541 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 2: to change your opinion today Thursday morning? Is there something 542 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 2: you could hear or watch that would change your opinion? 543 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:11,959 Speaker 10: You know? 544 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 6: The only thing that right now I believe. 545 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 11: Okay, if you if you heard something about the health 546 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 11: status about one of these quarterbacks being maybe worse than 547 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 11: what they're leading it, and you're leading us on to believe. 548 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 11: So if Drake's shoulder is not quite as good as 549 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 11: you maybe he says it is, or if Sam's oblique 550 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 11: is like bothering maybe a little bit more than people 551 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 11: says it is, that's that's maybe the thing that could 552 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 11: kind of tilt me one way or another. I'm kind 553 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 11: of fifty to fifty on this game, man, I really 554 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 11: am because look, I think Mike, I think the combination 555 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 11: of Rabel and Josh McDaniels is as good, if not. 556 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 6: The very best in the league. 557 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 11: I mean, how many Super Bowls as Josh McDaniel coached 558 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 11: in Is it like nine? And something ridiculous? Mike has 559 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 11: played in a bunch and want a bunch. I think 560 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 11: they're the best coach team in the NFL that combination. 561 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 11: I think Mike McDonald's one of the most analytical, even keeled, 562 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 11: level headed guys in the NFL that you're blown away by. 563 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,199 Speaker 11: And their football team defensively is this ridiculous, but so 564 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:11,719 Speaker 11: is New England's. Seattle's offense is a little bit more explosive. 565 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 11: Sam has a penchant for either being really good or 566 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 11: he can have one of those games where you're sitting 567 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 11: there going mmm, now you know you see why? 568 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 5: Maybe you know. 569 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 11: Minnesota has some reservations. Although I think buying large, Minnesota 570 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 11: still wishes that they had Sam Darnold. I don't know, man, 571 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 11: I'm going back and forth on this. I'm leaning towards 572 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 11: Seattle because of how strong they are defensively and because 573 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 11: of the explosiveness they have on offense, but coaching matters 574 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 11: in this league, as we know in New England's got 575 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 11: two of the very best and their defense is a 576 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 11: problem too. 577 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh, js N, would you have been a big 578 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 2: problem for you? 579 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 10: Ah? 580 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 11: Wide receivers were a problem for me now, But I 581 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 11: was I was a big, old like RoboCop type safety 582 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 11: that was just trying to knock you out. 583 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 6: I wasn't trying to cover two you. 584 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 11: I think that's you know, the game has changed so much, man, 585 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 11: it really had. I was talking to Charles Woodson like 586 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 11: a couple of years ago we were down and it 587 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 11: was when we were down in Phoenix when the Chiefs 588 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 11: were playing Philly the first time, and We're standing on 589 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 11: the sideline and I was just looking at the players 590 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 11: and I was like, Charles, what do. 591 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 6: You notice about about these guys? 592 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 11: And He's like, just how streamlined and just how athletic 593 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 11: every single person looks Like the DB's aren't as big 594 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 11: as they used to be, but there's so much more athletic, 595 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 11: there's so much more explosive. 596 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 6: Because we were just talking. 597 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 11: About like if you let these guys play the same 598 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 11: way we played, I mean, guys would really be getting hurt. 599 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 11: They had to kind of dial it back me just 600 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 11: because of how just how big and thick and muscular 601 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 11: and stuff all these guys are. But the athleticism is 602 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 11: so much different. The requirements at defensive back by and 603 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 11: large are the same. But I think I just think 604 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 11: the quality of athlete has really ramped up. And for me, Look, 605 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 11: I would have been there are a few teams I 606 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 11: still could play for, Like I could still play for 607 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 11: those big own teams that you know, I would. 608 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 6: Have been a good you know what I should have done. 609 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,719 Speaker 11: I should have done with the late great mister Al 610 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 11: Davis told me to do, which was move the linebacker. 611 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 6: I would have been a hell of a will backer. 612 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 11: Now, okay, but you know I still got I still 613 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 11: got my seven eight years in. 614 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 6: I'm good. I'm good. Now I get to do this, man, 615 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 6: I mean, you. 616 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 2: Know, yeah, it doesn't hurt. No, you're done with this. 617 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 11: No, you know what exactly I heard Andrew talking about 618 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 11: that that's the thing that you don't miss. But you 619 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 11: know what, at the same time, I kind of do 620 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 11: miss the pain a little bit. I kind of do 621 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 11: miss laying in the training when the last time, oh gosh, 622 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 11: nineteen ninety eight. I think that was the last time, 623 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 11: like I that I really felt, you know, like that 624 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 11: thrill of like knocking the crap out of someone. Although 625 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 11: I was playing in a like a like a parents 626 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 11: versus kids soccer game with my daughter like about back 627 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 11: in like twenty ten, and like kind of slipped on 628 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 11: the grass and like literally like just I mean went 629 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 11: head over heels and that. 630 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 6: That didn't feel very good. But I've had back. 631 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 11: In twenty fifteen, man, I had like like three like 632 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 11: a three disc fusion surgery in my neck because of 633 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 11: the way we used to hit back then. So those 634 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 11: days of being physical they're long gone for me, Man, 635 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 11: long gone. 636 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 2: You look at that Cleveland Brown staff that you had, BELI, 637 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 2: oh my goodness, it was. How come you guys weren't 638 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 2: good because. 639 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 11: We didn't have any offense. We stunk on offense. I mean, 640 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 11: damn we stunk. It wasn't good. We had one of 641 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 11: the best defenses in ninety four in the history of 642 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 11: the league, and I mean we were just snuff people out, 643 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 11: I mean blank them, and we'd still lose games. So 644 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 11: that ninety four season, we lost to the Steelers three 645 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 11: times that year, twice in the regular season. 646 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 6: Then we lost to them in the divisional round in Pittsburgh. 647 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 11: I remember we went there to Pittsburgh and we ran 648 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 11: out on the football for pregame. It was myself, Eric Turner, 649 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 11: maybe Rob Burnett, Anthony plays a couple of guys on defense. 650 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 11: I remember seeing this figure like down in the corner 651 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:51,959 Speaker 11: of the end zone.

Williams and uh who 661 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 11: was the other running back? Bam John L. I forget 662 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 11: who the other guy was. They had three backs go 663 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 11: for over one hundred yards that day. 664 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 6: Three. 665 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 11: I had eleven tackles at halftime. So that that's that's 666 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 11: we just couldn't. 667 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 6: We just couldn't. We couldn't score. Dan that was a 668 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 6: problem if. 669 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 2: That means there at the second level. 670 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 11: Well, and then and I played down in the but 671 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 11: because remember I wasn't a big cover guy, they had 672 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 11: me down in the box a lot. But yeah, you 673 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 11: know what, that staff Getting back to that staff though 674 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 11: that was football like that was like going to the 675 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 11: Harvard of football to learn from Nick and Bill. At 676 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 11: the same time, it was such It was so hard 677 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 11: at the time because of the demands that they put 678 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 11: on you. And I'm telling I had a lot of 679 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 11: sleepless nights those years, those three years in Cleveland. But 680 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 11: as I tell Nick now and I tell Bill anytime 681 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 11: I see him, I would not change. 682 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 6: It for the world. Those guys are savants. They are 683 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 6: one of one. 684 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 11: And whenever you lost football games or didn't play well, 685 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 11: it was your fault. It wasn't their fault because they 686 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 11: gave you the answers. This is whether or not you 687 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 11: could use them. They are that damn smart. And those 688 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 11: two guys, there are two greatest coaches in my mind 689 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 11: of all time, without a doubt. 690 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 2: Which one is the greatest coach of all time? 691 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 11: You know, I think, look, I think I hit it 692 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 11: off with I had a much more personal relationship with 693 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 11: Nick than I did with Bill because Bill was the 694 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 11: head coach and Nick was the coordinator and the dB coach. 695 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 11: Bill Bill was very Bill's very much like you think 696 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 11: he is. Like, Bill was very business by the book, 697 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 11: not very emotional about things, Like he would say hi 698 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 11: to you one minute and the next minute tell you 699 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 11: I'm cutting you get out of here, and like wouldn't 700 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 11: break a smile. Nick was so hard on you, but 701 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 11: when you did it the way you want it, he 702 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 11: would give you that look, that kind of like that 703 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 11: fatherly look that she's like, I approve that, That's what 704 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 11: I want from you. So he was the guy who 705 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 11: I gravitated towards. But I'll tell you what now, both 706 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 11: of those dudes, they are not for everyone. But if 707 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 11: you get coached by them, if you get coached by 708 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 11: them and you win their approval, there's no greater feeling 709 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 11: because they truly are the grand masters of this game. 710 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 2: Great to see you, of course, thanks for all your 711 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 2: contributions this year, your insights.

But I don't know 826 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 2: if I've been more excited to talk to somebody because 827 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 2: it had been such a long period of time, and 828 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 2: we played golf together and I just remember I thought 829 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 2: he was going to hit at three hundred and fifty 830 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 2: yards and then I realized he couldn't out bow a 831 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 2: golf course like he couldn't. He said, if that ball 832 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 2: was moving ninety five miles an hour, I'd have a chance. 833 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 2: But the fact that it was just it kind of 834 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 2: sits there and mocks you. Just looks, you know, it's 835 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,879 Speaker 2: looking right at you and bow. He just couldn't get 836 00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 2: it right. 837 00:39:57,600 --> 00:39:59,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, paul I just checked back the last time we 838 00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 7: had Bo Jackson the show. He was a spring training 839 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 7: coach in Scottsdale two thousand and four and he was 840 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,800 Speaker 7: with the White Sox and he joined the show. 841 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 2: And I love that. Andrew Luck came from Stanford. It's 842 00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 2: forty five minutes, he said. But he wasn't selling a 843 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:19,720 Speaker 2: product like everybody is normally selling a product. Lewis Riddick 844 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,319 Speaker 2: just came over. You're not selling a product. They just 845 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 2: wanted to come in and talk, and that's that's a 846 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,279 Speaker 2: lot of fun. But Andrew Luck coming in and being 847 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 2: a good sport, letting Paulie mimic him make fun of it, 848 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 2: and he took it. Good sport, fantastic impersonation. 849 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 6: I gotta give it to him. 850 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 4: Ah, I need some work, like Stanford football need some work. 851 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 5: We're getting there. 852 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 2: But we did find out that Seaton's been sitting on 853 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,399 Speaker 2: a Tom Brady impersonation. 854 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 4: It's not so much that I've been sitting on it, Den. 855 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 4: I just think that hard work, you know, dedication is 856 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,120 Speaker 4: really what's gotten me here to this point. That's why 857 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 4: I can't really pick who patriots. I don't have a 858 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 4: rooting interest in this.
