Quote? 16 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: What sticks out most about this player is his explosiveness. 17 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: He is an absolute bottle rocket and moves with discipline 18 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: and urgency. He possesses a terrific motor, does not get gassed, 19 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: and never gives up on plays. 20 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 4: There's more. 21 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: This player certainly has the potential important to remember that word, 22 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: the potential to play tackle in the NFL. But what 23 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: makes him a safe pick is his easy transition to 24 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: the guard position, and finally the la Times once said 25 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: our guest was the best part of an a cappella 26 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: singof scene.

It was good, it was fun, bittersweet, 68 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 4: you know, I loved, loved my time in Green Bay. 69 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 4: But the reality of being the player side, you know, 70 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 4: you as a fan, it's like, oh, you'd always love 71 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 4: like your players to stay with the team, and I 72 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 4: would too, but it is a business at the end 73 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 4: of the day, so business decision to be made. Currently 74 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 4: a free agent, currently rehabbing from my surgery this past year, 75 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,039 Speaker 4: and kind of just playing the field, feeling it out, 76 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 4: seeing when what teams will call, where that might be, 77 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 4: and kind of keeping all options open. So it's kind 78 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 4: of exciting. I've I've never been a free agent before. 79 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 4: It's kind of cool being like the new hot girl 80 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 4: on campus and get all the teams kind of having 81 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 4: their feelers out for you, kind of give an eigh 82 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 4: to you. So it's been kind of cool so far. 83 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: I have a theory and I think this goes back years. 84 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: The longer your hair as an offensive lineman, the more 85 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: of a chance you stand out, the more excited fans 86 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 1: get to follow you to watch you play. You know, 87 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: it goes back like remember Kyle Turley and he had 88 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 1: that long flowing Maine and like you see it with 89 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: guys when they're running out of the field and they're 90 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: taped up as warrior like as it gets and you're 91 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 1: coming out there with long hair. I do think it 92 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: has a massive impact popularity of offensive linemen. 93 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 4: Can't say that I modeled my hair game after him. 94 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 4: I was honestly was just trying to grow a mullet 95 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 4: in college, and then when it came down to cut 96 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 4: my hair, I had buyers or more so, I ended 97 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 4: up just keeping with it and then obviously got the 98 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 4: Clay Matthews cut. Once I met Clay back in twenty thirteen, 99 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 4: he showed me how to how to do my hair 100 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 4: properly and not look like an idiot, and then just 101 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 4: kind of stuck. I kind of enjoyed it, kind of 102 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 4: let it down either on some crazy nights with a 103 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 4: bunch of beers, a bunch of beers in me, or 104 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 4: when I'm playing football. That's pretty much the only times 105 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 4: that my hair comes down. 106 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 2: I have a selfish question as an Eagles fan, could 107 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 2: you tell me what the magic is of Jeff Stotlin 108 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 2: on the Eagles offensive line coach? Is there rumors around 109 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 2: the league how this guy is just the offensive line whisper? 110 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 2: What makes him so special that you know Melta came 111 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 2: to him as an Australian rules rugby player and now 112 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: is one of the highest paid tackles in football. I mean, 113 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: it's incredible, how incredibly gifted of a coach he is 114 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 2: and how many people know this. He's a Chip Kelly project. 115 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 2: Chip Kelly brought him in when he joined the Eagles. 116 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 2: So I would love to know what your viewpoint is 117 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 2: of Jeff as someone that hasn't ever played for him, 118 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 2: but obviously you've heard about him and what he's done 119 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 2: with other players. 120 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. I actually I know Jeff because during the draft 121 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 4: process way back in the day, we did an official 122 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 4: interview at the Combine and then he also came out 123 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 4: to Boulder for my pro day and then he held 124 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 4: a private work out with me, so we had so he. 125 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 2: Just knows talent. Jeff just knows he knew with you obviously. 126 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 4: I mean not enough. But maybe they maybe they felt 127 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 4: good enough with Lane that year because they maybe I 128 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 4: was I was to hedge their bet if they didn't 129 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 4: go Lane, or if Lane didn't fall to them, that 130 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 4: maybe I was gonna be taken. They were gonna not 131 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 4: take any tackle in the first round or second round 132 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 4: and then maybe try and get Because I was supposed 133 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 4: to be like a I probably probably should have been 134 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 4: like a third round pick. I don't, you know, like 135 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 4: my age and everyone, I kind of thought i'd be 136 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 4: second third, but I was like, yeah, probably third. Nothing 137 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 4: sexy about me. I'm not super tall, I'm not super nast. 138 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 4: I remember laying like speaking of the Eagles make you 139 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 4: feel good, like, uh, when we were doing like the 140 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 4: draft day, I remember we got locked in like this. Uh, 141 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 4: we got put in this room together where the all 142 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 4: the doctors can I evaluate you, and then you have 143 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 4: to like or almost like stripped down and get naked. 144 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 4: You're definitely a piece of meat. You're like a piece 145 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 4: of cattle. And I remember like Lane like stood up 146 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 4: and he took his shirt off, and like I saw 147 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 4: like his ribs and he had like a six pack. 148 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 4: As an offensive lineman, and being like six six and 149 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 4: I'm like, well, I mean it makes sense why this 150 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 4: guy's Probably I don't have that, but yeah, I know. 151 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 4: Get getting back to Jeff, I think his ability to 152 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 4: relate and demand yet appreciate with the player, so to 153 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 4: demand a certain energy and excellence of all his players 154 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 4: while also having that ability to connect and relate, so 155 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 4: you know, definitely uh getting the most out of his 156 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 4: players at the end of the day. That's essentially a 157 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 4: quick way of saying it. And he understands football, he 158 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 4: understands proper technique. I mean he's taken raw talent and 159 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 4: you know, carved it and made pretty good players. And 160 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 4: it's not just Jordan. You can look at a couple 161 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 4: other guys at a phone that are their sixth n 162 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 4: man up and they go out there and they are 163 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 4: able to do a good job. And I think that 164 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 4: speaks to his individual drills and what he talks about 165 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 4: in the classroom because his guys get it. His guys 166 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 4: are prepared, and I mean, those guys better appreciate, you know, 167 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 4: the type of coach you because it's not a lot 168 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 4: of great coaches out there. At the end of the day. 169 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 4: I've been blessed to have amazing coaches on my end. 170 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 4: But I've been around other coaches that I just sit 171 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 4: there and I'm like, yeah, I'm glad I have a 172 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 4: good room with the older veterans because he may know 173 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 4: football like x's and no's, but from technique, he like 174 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 4: has no idea, He's just talking. 175 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 1: What do you remember about the draft process as you 176 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: were going through it? 177 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 4: The combine is not sexy. What the TV side, you 178 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 4: guys get all the glitz and glamour. The players side, 179 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 4: I can speak for everyone, it is not a sexy thing. 180 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 4: It essentially a test in and of itself. If you're 181 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 4: doing so many psych evaluation tests where you're doing like 182 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 4: two hundred to four hundred question psych evaluations, like there 183 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 4: might be three or four teams terns and you, so 184 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 4: you have to do their psychic evaluation test and they 185 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 4: don't care how much time they take because you voluntarily 186 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 4: go to this place that they you can do whatever 187 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 4: you want and you have no time, Like I think 188 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 4: there's like a window between like seven in the morning 189 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 4: till like twelve one o'clock at night, Like there was 190 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 4: things that you're doing twelve one am in the morning 191 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 4: then you're up at six thirty in the morning. So 192 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 4: those psych test just wear you out and they're stupid. 193 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 4: It's like, uh, it's like, uh, what's your favorite color? 194 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 4: Do you love your mom and dad? Did you like 195 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 4: going to school? Have you ever thought about shooting someone 196 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 4: in the head? And I'm like, like assuming the reason 197 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 4: why they do is because you have somebody's to be like, yeah, 198 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 4: you know a couple times person pissed me off. I'm like, 199 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 4: they just wear you out doing that. The food sucks. 200 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 2: The Patriots must not have assets to Hernandez, yeah, hey now, or. 201 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 4: Maybe they just overlooked it because of the talent. 202 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 2: That's true. 203 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 4: That's true. The food sucks. I remember walking this auditorium 204 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 4: where they do like the height and measure. Is this 205 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 4: all the same place you do the bench? You walk 206 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 4: into this like half auditorium, there's a stage, there's like 207 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 4: an MC almost, and they give like your name, your school, 208 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 4: your weight, like you step on the scale and just 209 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 4: your spandex. And you got all these coaches and scouts 210 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 4: and they're all just staring at you, just so you're 211 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 4: not really hiding much they could see or at all 212 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 4: your goods rattle off, how big your hands are, your wingspan, 213 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 4: your height, your weight, and then you walk off the 214 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 4: stage and you go do a body mass index and 215 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 4: then like you rarely have any time to eat and 216 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 4: do all this stuff, so like most of it sucks, 217 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 4: I'll say for the guys, especially if you have a 218 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 4: long hospital visit, because you have to do a full 219 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 4: like backscan or anything. Thankfully I did not have to 220 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 4: do an MRI, but certain guys have to do multiple 221 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 4: memris because certain teams want different types of imaging and 222 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 4: like I said, you're just a piece of cattle. That's 223 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 4: just your number and whatever you want to do. So 224 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 4: I thankfully out of college, I didn't have too much. 225 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 4: It was maybe like a two and a half hours 226 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 4: in the hospital. I had guys there for ten hours. 227 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 4: Their whole day was over there. They missed, they couldn't 228 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 4: do their certain interviews, they had to move them because 229 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 4: of all the different imaging that they had to do. 230 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 4: That part sucked, and then it's okay. Then wake up 231 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 4: the next day, make sure you're properly fueled, you do 232 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 4: your proper warm up, and then go sprint as hard 233 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 4: as you can. That's where you see certain guys that 234 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 4: you hear about them kind of get hurt or pop something. 235 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 4: It's a testing of itself, like how well can you 236 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 4: perform under intense amount of pressure and scrutiny, and like randomness, 237 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 4: because the whole day is very random. There's a lot 238 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 4: of weird things. Speaking of about Bill Belichick, I did 239 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 4: have an interview with the Patriots, and so you have 240 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 4: an official interview. You walk into the these little like rooms. 241 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 4: I guess it's like the suites in the hotel. And 242 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 4: usually it's like oline coach, a bunch of coaches in there. 243 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 4: Sometimes the head coach would be in there, certain scouts, 244 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 4: and I'd say, at least, let's call it on average, 245 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 4: eight people are in this room. And then usually you're 246 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 4: breaking down film. They're asking me questions. They say, they 247 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 4: will kind of want to understand your football IQ or whatever. 248 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 4: Bill Belichick. I really remember walking in and it's just 249 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 4: him and a whiteboard and no film and he's just 250 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 4: going up there and it's telling me about your favorite play. 251 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 4: Draw it up. It is just one on one mono 252 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 4: liu mono. And I thought, you know, for being a 253 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 4: college kid and the immense amount of respect you have, 254 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 4: a guy like Bill Belichick can be very intimidating and 255 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 4: can definitely make you forget a couple of your plays 256 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 4: and formations about how to draw him on a whiteboard. 257 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 4: But I thought that was an interesting strategy, and I 258 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 4: think that was his way of kind of trying to 259 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 4: see his evaluation, which was again, it was the only 260 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 4: thing that was extremely different par to everyone else. 261 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 3: Can you develop a rapport with Bill Belichick? 262 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 4: Yeah? I remember I had certain plays that I had 263 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 4: in my head that I didn't want to draw up, 264 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 4: and then he wanted like full formations the wide receivers 265 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 4: and certain concepts, and I'm gonna be honest, I don't 266 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 4: give a shit what the hell they do, like unless 267 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 4: it's like safety rotation. They have eight to nine hole 268 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 4: like rules, which I learned in the league. Like I 269 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 4: did not know coming out of college. I just knew 270 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 4: what the line had to do, and I taught, you know, 271 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 4: I had to be taught like what running backs and 272 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 4: there are certain footwork and stuff. So he was kind 273 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 4: of grilling me on that end and a couple other formations, 274 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 4: and to be honest, I literally after that meeting, I'm like, 275 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 4: oh sick. He just taught me like two formations and stuff. 276 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 4: So now I'm just gonna lie and act like I'm 277 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 4: gonna take his formation with my run play. I'm gonna 278 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 4: put it together for the next guys I go talk to. 279 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 4: So that's other. That's the part of that that I 280 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 4: still I remember. I thought that was pretty funny. Maybe 281 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 4: he did kind of like me because he's like, I 282 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 4: had another meeting, but I had a break before the 283 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 4: next official meeting. And then he's like, well, I don't 284 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 4: have anyone, so let's keep going. I'm like all right. 285 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 4: And then by the time this guy showed up, that was, 286 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:52,599 Speaker 4: like I said, you're like a piece of meat. So 287 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 4: like someone's like, wait out the door to usher you 288 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 4: somewhere else. It was for the Cardinals. He was like, 289 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 4: what the fuck? Where where were you? Of course Bill 290 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 4: belp oh trying to get an itt'e getting extra fifteen 291 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 4: minutes with a guy. I'm like, look, we want me 292 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 4: to tell him? Oh, sorry, Bill, against the rules. I 293 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 4: don't even know what that I'm even doing here. I 294 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 4: didn't even know what the wide receiver formation was. I 295 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 4: remember the Giants too. They had a guy who stood 296 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 4: like behind this like little like half wall and only 297 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 4: showed his eyes the entire time. I don't know, maybe 298 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 4: they're trying to freak me out. I don't know. 299 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 2: And then that old school Coughlin, right, Coughlin just probably 300 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 2: had some guy he's had with him for like thirty years. 301 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 2: He's like just there at those kids. 302 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, everyone was like kind of normal. Asked me a question, Lily, 303 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 4: here's the wall, and his eyes are just like this 304 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 4: staring at you. And you always hear some of these funny, 305 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 4: like funny, weird stories that come out, so I just 306 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 4: remember that one explicitly. And then I remember he's like, 307 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 4: do you own a gun? And I was like yes, 308 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 4: And then all of a sudden, I see the eyes 309 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 4: that come up and everyone says, like what, and then 310 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 4: they started asking a bunch of questions about guns. I'm like, 311 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 4: have one, I've shot one, Like that's it. I just 312 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 4: remember the guy's eyes that he like heared his whole 313 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 4: fix up at that point. The whole experience is so weird, 314 00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 4: and I can definitely say like after him, like what 315 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 4: is like, I'm like, it sucks. It's not that fun. 316 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 4: It's a cool experience to say you did it, but 317 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 4: it is not what it's hyped up to be. From 318 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 4: the audience, perspective. 319 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 2: From the fan perspective, I'll say, it's just cool seeing 320 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 2: your peers like when I was your age again, you're 321 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 2: a year younger than me. It's just cool seeing people 322 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 2: your age becoming millionaires. I think that's the hype where 323 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 2: it's like, it's crazy watching a dude who looks like me, 324 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 2: who's my age, who's a freak athlete that I grew 325 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 2: up with, become a millionaire. I think that's definitely the 326 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 2: hype where it's like, you know, we all daydream we 327 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 2: all have those dreams as kids.

So I'm gonna keep going. And I 369 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 4: remember for this that deal was the historic one. That's 370 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 4: the one I remember calling him and then saying like 371 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 4: that second deal that was for you, this one's for me, 372 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 4: and like we were laughing about it. And then I 373 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 4: just remember sitting in my car because I signed like 374 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 4: the day before a game, so we had night meetings, 375 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 4: and I remember just kind of finally having a moment 376 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,679 Speaker 4: to myself, away from my agent, away from my at 377 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 4: the time a girl from a fiance. I can't remember 378 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 4: if I proposed her yet, just finally was by myself, and 379 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 4: I just remember just like laughing and crying borderline hysterically, 380 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 4: just being like you, son of a bitch, you did it, 381 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 4: good job. And then I had like my like little 382 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 4: two moments to myself. I'm like Okay, cool, all right, 383 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 4: now let's go back to work. Let's go, let's go 384 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:52,360 Speaker 4: earn this thing. 385 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: What do your teammates say to you when that happens. 386 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: Like Aaron Rodgers is a lightning rod of controversy, you 387 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: next to him always made him seem more human, more friendly, 388 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: like a dude that people could get along with. How 389 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: do teammates react to you when you're walking into the 390 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 1: building that day? Do you give a guy like Aaron Rodgers, 391 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: who you've been protecting, a gift for helping you get 392 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: to that deal? What's the response from people on your team? 393 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 4: I mean, usually the go tos is big money, let 394 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 4: me hold, let me hold a little piece of that congratulations. 395 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 4: I mean, at the end of the day, all of 396 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 4: us are excited, like not on these teammates, but like 397 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 4: we're all just players in the league at the end 398 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 4: of the day, and our whole goal is to perform 399 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 4: dual for the team. But there is a business component, 400 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,679 Speaker 4: so all of us want to see money in the 401 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 4: player's pockets and not in the organization pockets. So no 402 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 4: matter what, I don't think anyone's not happy for a player. 403 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 4: So a lot of that, And then I mean I 404 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 4: guess for Aaron, like, hell, I'm not getting that guy 405 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 4: a gift, Like he made me work so goddamn hard 406 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 4: for that money. If I had another quarterback, would have 407 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,719 Speaker 4: been a lot easier to get that from how he 408 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:02,400 Speaker 4: plays the position. But I definitely pushed me to show 409 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 4: off as much as I could do. No, but a 410 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 4: guy like him, you know, he's he's so always calm 411 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 4: and cool that I just remember he was just like ingrats. 412 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 4: You know, he gave me like a little quiet like 413 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 4: congrats buddy, like doesn't feel good to be up here 414 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 4: with me, and that I think that he didn't say that, 415 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 4: but that's like kind of like the feeling like I 416 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,159 Speaker 4: know what you're experiencing and then kind of give me 417 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 4: a little hugg and we just kind of man, it's 418 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 4: just business as usual. 419 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 2: My view of Aaron is we all have friends like Aaron, Right, 420 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 2: We all grew up with a buddy who loves Joe 421 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 2: Rogan and they love conspiracies and they say crazy stuff. 422 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, you know, you 423 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 2: have a lot of stuff in common with him. Like 424 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:42,360 Speaker 2: I can tell you guys just weren't football field friends, right, 425 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 2: You guys chilled off the field, like, you know, you 426 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 2: know him in a way more personal level than most 427 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,199 Speaker 2: people know him. What's his outview on this year? Like 428 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 2: it feels like he's going full killer mode coming to 429 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 2: this jets here where it's like he's heard so much doubt. 430 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 2: Have you ever seen him as motivated as he is 431 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 2: this year ahead of the season, where it's like he's 432 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 2: just taken all of the doubt and put it into 433 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 2: this year. 434 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 4: I think Aaron performs best with doubt. I think he 435 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 4: converts it into energy in a really positive way. And 436 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 4: then if you just kind of follow his career and 437 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 4: I always have the prefaces I love speaking for him 438 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 4: because he hates people speaking for him. So I get 439 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 4: mad at me for us being like, you don't know 440 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 4: what's going on my head. You know, I'm in control 441 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 4: of myself. You don't fucking get it. I digress. You know, 442 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 4: he was doubted in college. He was out in high school, 443 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 4: dat in college, going to beute, doubted in cal Doubted 444 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 4: at the draft night, embarrassed at the draft night. You know, 445 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 4: dad on the Packers with Brett, and then you know, 446 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 4: I just wanted to start proving everyone. So I think 447 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 4: he does really well in that scenario, and you know, 448 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 4: even when new coach comes in and then they draft 449 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 4: you know, first round quarterback first time they did that, 450 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 4: and then you know he rat a lost back back 451 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 4: MVPs like he does very well with that. I think 452 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 4: the history speaks for me to make that statement, you know, 453 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 4: going into this, I think he same dynamic. I think 454 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 4: a lot of doubt age is creeping in. He understands, 455 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 4: you know, time's on on the side anymore. You know, 456 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 4: he's definitely on the back night in the you know, 457 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 4: last couple holes. So I think for him, he's trying 458 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 4: to maximize everything he's got, you know, being on a 459 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 4: Jets organization that hasn't had a lot of success and 460 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 4: having trying to turn over the entire franchise and make 461 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 4: it more of a winning culture. But I think I 462 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 4: think he does well with more stress and more weight. 463 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 4: I don't think he always should have to do that, 464 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 4: but he does love the Superman superhero paradox. So long 465 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 4: winded way of saying, yeah, I think he's can do 466 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 4: pretty well this year. 467 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 3: Can you think of plays? I'm sure you can. 468 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: You're in Green Bay and you're playing with him and 469 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: you're seeing him do things that you had never seen, 470 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: didn't think a quarterback could do that were outside versus 471 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: other things you've ever experienced. 472 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I can tell you two quick stories about that. 473 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 4: One is when I first got on the team and 474 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:57,479 Speaker 4: I was playing tackle. I remember when I finally started 475 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 4: like playing with like with the ones in playing with Aaron. 476 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 4: I remember like a guy kind of beat me. I 477 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 4: was like, ohit, like I'm running Arond the quarterback of 478 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 4: ten yards like a sack and the quarterback wasn't there, 479 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,479 Speaker 4: and I was like, this is amazing. Like college, like 480 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 4: if I got that turling corner, like you know, twelve eleven, 481 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 4: ten yards, like this is sack because they'd have no 482 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 4: idea of pocket presence. But having a guy that you 483 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 4: know is also really detailed and really good at his job, 484 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 4: I just didn't compute it. Did It didn't really make 485 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 4: sense to me. But seeing him operate and then I 486 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 4: remember him throwing a making a throw to Jermichael Finley 487 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 4: and then him like one hand catching, I was like, dude, 488 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 4: this is so sick. Everyone's really good. I just never 489 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 4: I've never been around that. Like I won like thirteen 490 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 4: games in my four years at Colorado, so I hadn't 491 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 4: really been around much like high end talent, so I 492 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 4: was pretty ignorant to the idea of so much good 493 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,679 Speaker 4: talent around me. So that's one thing being kind of 494 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 4: odd and seeing him make amazing throws. Two was I 495 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 4: remember having a talk with the GM now Brian Goodagainst 496 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 4: and he had said with all the scouts, he always 497 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 4: tell them when you go on to practice and in 498 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 4: they're in the evaluation of quarterbacks for the day, you 499 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 4: can evaluate Aaron like everyone else because he's going to 500 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 4: make one throw day that's going to completely ruin your 501 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 4: entire scale and grading an idea of uh evaluating quarterbacks. 502 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 4: And he has to always I remember him saying that 503 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 4: I have to prefaice that and make it important because 504 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 4: every day we go down there, there's always one places 505 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 4: he makes that's absolutely insane. Like some of his cool 506 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 4: stuff I think he's done might have happened in practice. 507 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 4: Some cool things obviously have made it in the games. 508 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 4: But if it gives you any indication, he does that 509 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 4: in practice all the time. 510 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: Simon, can you name the fastest growing ticketing app in 511 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: the United States? 512 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 2: Game Time? 513 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: That's right, It's game Time.

I mean, I can his visual edge right now, 531 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 2: Jordan Nelson corner pocket of the end zone, and it 532 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 2: feels like Jordan Love has taken that part of his game. 533 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 2: Like if you watch Jordan Love again. I don't know 534 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,880 Speaker 2: the most about quarterbacks, but I know footwork is key. 535 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 2: He will literally have the most unstable footwork. Jordan Love 536 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 2: just like Rodgers would he could throw off his back foot, Like, 537 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,880 Speaker 2: did you see similarities in practice between that? I mean, 538 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,159 Speaker 2: that's it's definitely something he's taken apart from Rogers, who 539 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 2: made his own part of it game where Jordan, you know, 540 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:04,360 Speaker 2: off balanced throws. He's really improved from college to where 541 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 2: he's at and his first year as a starter. 542 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think just from what I know of Jordan 543 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 4: a lot of potential. A growth pick was awesome because 544 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 4: he'd be able to sit for three years behind the 545 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:19,159 Speaker 4: Hall of Famer. 546 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 2: Like, that's the crazy part is he learned, like you 547 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 2: got to see the best of the best every day 548 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 2: at practice and film. It's it's like, it is crazy 549 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:26,640 Speaker 2: how lucky that is. 550 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, to be honest, and this is respectful, I don't 551 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 4: think anyone really saw how good Jordan was in practice. 552 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 4: I think Jordan's more of a gamer. And also it's 553 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 4: kind of polarizingly tough to evaluate a guy like Jordan 554 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 4: when he's constantly around Aaron. 555 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 2: Probably. 556 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 4: To be honest and this, I'm saying, Jordan is a 557 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 4: very good quarterback. He's gonna do a lot of really 558 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 4: good things in the league. And I think you're seeing 559 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 4: the beginning of his career, starting right now. But when 560 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 4: you're always, like I said, it's hard to evaluate quarterbacks 561 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 4: when you're around Aaron, and I had been accustomed to 562 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 4: seeing what Aaron was doing all the time. It's tough 563 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 4: to really see how good he is when you have 564 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 4: Aaron doing just the most absurd things all the time. 565 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 4: He really flicks his wrist and go sixty yards and 566 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 4: you never really see ducks come out of Aaron's hands. 567 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 4: Where Jordan very good quarterbacks, sometimes you're gonna throw a 568 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 4: little more of the ducks, a little more like throws 569 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 4: that aren't like in perfect step again extremely efficient. But 570 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 4: that's where like the hard trying to like separate, he's 571 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 4: still a very good quarterback. There's just a difference, Like 572 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 4: Aaron is like a just in a different class int 573 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 4: and of itself. I think that's why everyone starts talking, 574 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 4: you know, puts up with is he the best? The best? Ever? 575 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 4: Plays only when won Super Bowl? You know you got 576 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,400 Speaker 4: guys of one, like how many is Tom won? Six seven? 577 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 4: I don't even know at this point he does. 578 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 2: Own the hell of Maria though we'll give we have 579 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 2: rogers that he is the king of Hell Mary like 580 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 2: I try to explain to my younger cousin. I was like, dude, 581 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 2: you don't get it, Like you have to go on 582 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 2: YouTube and watch Aaron Rodgers. Hell Mary's people throw up 583 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 2: a prayer. He is throwing with accuracy sixty seventy yards 584 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 2: downfield to a. 585 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 4: Guy, and not to mention that's with more than one 586 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 4: broken collar room like his. He is fucking impressive, it is, 587 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 4: and I'm honored to say I got to play with 588 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 4: him now. Again, going back to the comparison, I think 589 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 4: the best thing that Aaron did for Jordan was like, 590 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 4: don't do me, no need to do me. Just be 591 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 4: comfortable and play and understand the game, Understand how defenses 592 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 4: run there, how they run their coverages, understand the whole 593 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 4: operation of the offense. And then he's like, just be comfortable. 594 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 4: So I think a lot of like the feet the 595 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 4: footworks ouf that you're talking about, I really think that's 596 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 4: more of just Jordan watching Aaron and just feeling comfortable. Okay, 597 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 4: I can add this, but he never The thing I 598 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 4: really appreciate about Jordan never you never saw him try 599 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,120 Speaker 4: to be like Aaron. It just whatever ended up being 600 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 4: natural was great. And I always remember hearing Aaron say 601 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 4: certain things like you just whatever's most comfortable for you, 602 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 4: Like that's what you gotta do. You gotta be the best. 603 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 4: You don't try and be like me. And I do 604 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 4: remember seeing a lot of quarterbacks over my time they 605 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,360 Speaker 4: tried to be like Aaron, Like you could see them 606 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 4: actively like trying and practicing, like there's only one Aeron. 607 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 4: You got to be the best you. And this is 608 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 4: where I think is most important. Never try to become 609 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 4: someone else. Maybe take the idea, but you have to 610 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 4: you have to make it your own. And I think 611 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 4: that's what Jordan did really well. Like there's certain things 612 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 4: Jordan does that's completely opposite of what Aaron does, like 613 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 4: timing of the throw and staying within the system. I 614 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 4: think Aaron loved going off schedule. I think Jordan, you know, again, 615 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 4: he's younger, so maybe he feels more obligated too at 616 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 4: this this point in time. But that's one thing I 617 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 4: remember when we were playing well before I got surgery 618 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 4: last year, that that was one thing that he did 619 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 4: really well. He stays within the system, a lot more 620 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 4: hits off hitches off his back foot and that ball's 621 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 4: coming out and he's just gonna say, all right, screw it, 622 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 4: this is where the coach that's supposed to be there. 623 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 4: I'm just gonna just pipe it right here and whatever 624 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 4: happens happens. Whereas Aaron, that's where the magic happens. It's 625 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 4: a double edged sword. You hate it, but you love it. 626 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 4: And that's why you never count him out because you 627 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 4: have no eight because he can do everything, so he 628 00:28:58,080 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 4: wants to do anything because he can do everything. 629 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: Well, there is something I bet when you're an offensive 630 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 1: lineman knowing who you're blocking for and knowing the ability 631 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: of that player, but also in the confidence you'll have 632 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,239 Speaker 1: down to the final seconds sustaining that block for the 633 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: extra tenth of the second to allow someone to step 634 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: up in the pocket because you know what they're capable 635 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: of doing no matter where you are in the field. 636 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, the the game changes, I think, particularly talking offensive 637 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:38,239 Speaker 4: line play, certain guys you can definitely play differently. I 638 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 4: don't think you can. How to evaluate offense line is tough. 639 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 4: It is more you can't look at statistics because they, 640 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 4: to be honest, I think it tells a very small 641 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 4: fraction of the actual story. You could take certain offense 642 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 4: line and you think are great past protectors, and I 643 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 4: would look at it and I can tell you strap 644 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 4: the bat. There's probably a small handful of guys i'd 645 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 4: actually feel comfortable. I'm like, go play for go play 646 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,239 Speaker 4: for a guy that holds the ball for longer than 647 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 4: two point five seconds, or like a guy like Aaron 648 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 4: during not he's definitely gotten quicker with his release. He 649 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 4: has a great release, No, but his ability to hold 650 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 4: the ball now is not as much as he used 651 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 4: to back in his prime. I don't think people will 652 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 4: be talking about a certain linemen with the same amount 653 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 4: of respect because it's extremely tough. But I was thankful 654 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 4: because it made me. It forced me to someone's got 655 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 4: to do it and if it's not gonna be using me, 656 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 4: someone else, and that it forced me to become so 657 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 4: freaking good at passpro and like step my game up 658 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 4: because if not, he's gonna get smoked or I'm gonna 659 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 4: get yelled at everything. You can't blame this guy. It's 660 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 4: always gonna be the line like if Aaron ends up 661 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 4: moving wrong in the pocket and I get bull rushed, 662 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 4: but he's like fading over to me, my coach would 663 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 4: be like stoppin buller. So far like, does anyone want 664 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 4: to tell this guy to have a proper drop back. 665 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 4: That's why Tom Brady amazing, Alex Smith, Alex Smith and 666 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 4: Tom Brady by far some of the best quarterbacks to 667 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 4: play for. In his old lineman's dream gonn it's run 668 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 4: heavy first play action, they're touching like eight and a 669 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 4: half nine yards with their back foot, they're stepping up 670 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 4: to almost five yards. They're tall enough, like Tom can 671 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 4: see over everybody, and he's always dishing the bat and 672 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 4: it's like, first two reads are gone, don't go broke 673 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 4: taking a profit. I'm gonna check it down. We're gonna 674 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 4: live to fight another day. Tom has made so many 675 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 4: linemen so rich, and then when they get broke off 676 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 4: go somewhere else. You don't really hear much about them 677 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 4: because then it's like you gotta like my age old saying, 678 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 4: is a pass block for dough, run block for show, 679 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 4: I really get exposed. And that's where like, if you 680 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 4: have a quarterback that plays a little bit out of 681 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 4: the system or does that like you have a tough living. 682 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 4: So again, it's really hard. I think there's so much 683 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,719 Speaker 4: more to offensive line play that I think goes unknowsed 684 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 4: that I'm spoken in, and I think a lot of people, 685 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 4: even in a lot of analysts, I don't think Frank, 686 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 4: I don't think they don't think they really know what 687 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 4: the fuck they're talking about. Honestly, I'll say some offensive 688 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 4: lineman X offense lineman when they talk because I sit here, 689 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 4: I'm like, God, it's a terrible take.

Pretty much any 706 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: subject that is being discussed, football or otherwise, it is 707 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: a full on blast. 708 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 3: You should go be an analyst. 709 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 4: I don't know. Part of me wants to hate to 710 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 4: say it might be too easy. I may I maybe 711 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 4: want to challenge myself more by going into something I 712 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,239 Speaker 4: really have no idea and really getting humbled, like I 713 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:48,479 Speaker 4: felt like that's how I felt with football. 714 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 2: I'm a sports bet with us. Brother, that's will humble 715 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 2: you real quick. 716 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, no sports betting, Like I'm gonna be honest, I don't. 717 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 4: You're not supposed to, so I guess. Yeah. 718 00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. We had Chris long On. He talked about it. 719 00:32:58,680 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 4: He was like, I know what I was walking in 720 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 4: though I don't, and that shit scares me because yeah, 721 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 4: I know of the insider information and I still don't 722 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 4: understand the outcomes. So I don't know how these certain 723 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 4: lines are so good and like what's prestaurant? But like 724 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 4: I'm in there learning all week, hearing the game plan, 725 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 4: no one what's up, and I still don't understand how, 726 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 4: like like nothing ends up coming to what I see 727 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 4: things forthwith, So I'm like, I don't know how people 728 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 4: even get a beat on that like that, well you 729 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 4: lived it like you were in some Green Bay games 730 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 4: where you guys were huge favorites. And obviously, you know 731 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 4: football any given sun to anything can happen. But to 732 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 4: the outside viewer, they're like, I'll never know how Aaron 733 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 4: Rodgers lost that game and how Green Bay didn't win 734 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 4: that game. 735 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 2: Where it's just like, that's sports. That's why we love 736 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,239 Speaker 2: this thing. Where it's like there's more to it than 737 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 2: just one on one. Right, it's football such a team 738 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 2: thing where it's the coaching game plan to the players 739 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 2: in the field, to the right scheme. Where that's why 740 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 2: again me and Chad we bet it. We love it. 741 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 2: You live it like as a player, you know it 742 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 2: is where people's like people are like, well, you guys 743 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 2: were a big favorite. You're like, no, we weren't like 744 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 2: those guys. We're just as good of us. They run 745 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 2: a great scheme like they have our numbers. So you know, 746 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 2: from your perspective, that's that's probably one of the toughest 747 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 2: parts of it. 748 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 4: Right, That's why I'm so scared of it because I 749 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 4: know so much about sports, yet it's so and I 750 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 4: know how unpredictable. It can be. That's why I'm I'm 751 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 4: not putting no money behind any of that because I 752 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 4: don't know how you can even it. Just that's a 753 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 4: frighten to me. I will say this though, We'll say this, 754 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 4: when it comes to betting, referees can totally influence a game. 755 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 4: I don't know if a player could, even if he 756 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 4: knows whatever lines and this stuff like that could be 757 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 4: tough unless you're seeing like sabotaging side point shaving things 758 00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:40,320 Speaker 4: like that. You know, shout out uh Falco, but uh 759 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 4: refs for sure, like you could totally. And it's starting 760 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 4: to make me more skeptical. The older I'm getting, the 761 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 4: more I'm seeing like some of these stupid calls, and 762 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 4: like I understand the impact, like to be honest, having 763 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,839 Speaker 4: a holding call in the regular season which is completely ambiguous, 764 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 4: and I hate holdings and I think they're dumb. 765 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 2: What about the Chiefs and No. Two Super Bowls in 766 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: a row, zero holding calls on their offensive line? Which 767 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 2: review of that going against a forty nine Ers defensive 768 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 2: line and the Eagles defensive line zero holds. 769 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 4: I know when it comes to playoffs, the rest are 770 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 4: always gonna let you play like, oh no, and this 771 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 4: is I'll say it, Jean Sterator, my favorite fucking rep 772 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 4: up all hockey. Los guys suck it. 773 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 2: Jean's the man. 774 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 4: Dean is the man. I remember him literally coming up 775 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 4: when we were bitching him out the Cowboy game. We're like, 776 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 4: we saw these flags, like Aaron and said, he goes, 777 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,240 Speaker 4: why don't you say anything about these other fucking flags. 778 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,359 Speaker 4: He was all pissed off, and Gene comes up, super chill, 779 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 4: super cool. He goes, look, we already had this call. 780 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 4: We have the other calls against your guys in the team. 781 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 4: I didn't want the fucking fans. You know already they 782 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 4: already hate us. I don't want to hate us off 783 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 4: set and Aaron, let's just go play. And then then 784 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 4: Aaron Sis goes all right, Gene, thanks, but like he's 785 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 4: just so just chilling cool and like he's a big 786 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 4: like let you play. And that's what I know. Playoffs 787 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 4: are like they're gonna let you get away with a 788 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 4: lot more. It's like you gotta fucking fight twin. I 789 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 4: think that's why you see DB's grab a hold a 790 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 4: little more because I don't and this is my perno belief. 791 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 4: I think dB should hold. Let's not stop babying wide receivers. 792 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 4: And I think the rules are in place because this 793 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 4: is now just my opinion. I think rules are in 794 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:13,279 Speaker 4: place because Goodell and the NFL know that more people 795 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 4: are going to tune into higher scoring games because that's 796 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 4: what's fun. So if we can change, even tweaking just 797 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 4: the rules a little bit, you're gonna change how the 798 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 4: outcome and how the game is played. And that's why 799 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 4: I think. I just think that's messed up. And that's 800 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 4: why I go back to, like in playoffs, like you 801 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 4: just gotta let him play. You gotta letdv's hold little more, 802 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:30,799 Speaker 4: you can let offense line and hold. But I do 803 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,760 Speaker 4: think that that is a direct like indication. Talking about 804 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 4: refs of two Super Bowls with the Chiefs, no holding 805 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 4: is like and if you're get like they call holding 806 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:39,640 Speaker 4: on Trent. I thought that was a bs Mike. You 807 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 4: gotta if you're gonna call that one, you have the 808 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 4: hunters and call the one and Donald Smith not the 809 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,720 Speaker 4: one where he's bear hugging Bosa when he spun. That's legal. 810 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. Guys are stupid if the guy's 811 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 4: gonna spin and he have the back of his breastplate 812 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 4: facing you. You can totally hold on that thing all day. 813 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 4: Holding is once your feet are beat, you can borderline, borderline, 814 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 4: hug it, dude, as long as your feet aren't beat 815 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 4: the guy that that's what he wants to do, going 816 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 4: into your body like by all means, because the rulebook is, 817 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:05,399 Speaker 4: once your hands get outside of the frame of your body, 818 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 4: you gotta let him go. 819 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,800 Speaker 1: It does seem like this year offensive lineman and tackles 820 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 1: on the edge, we're getting further and further off the 821 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and cheating on the snap by a 822 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 1: quarter of a second just to be able to open 823 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: up and get to the edge a little bit faster 824 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: against a defensive end who has such a head start 825 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 1: or who just might be faster and stronger than they are. 826 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,720 Speaker 1: Did you notice some differences? This felt like a narrative 827 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:35,800 Speaker 1: this year in the NFL more than any year before. 828 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, because what's his nuts? Is an idiot? Who's the 829 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:39,399 Speaker 4: chief's right tackle? 830 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 3: Jowan Taylor, Juan Taylor, there it is. 831 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 4: He's an idiot. He really fucked it up. He took 832 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 4: something that is good and within the rules, and bastards 833 00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 4: it made it so egregious that now it's like a 834 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 4: mic like you there, we're putting a microscope over the issue. 835 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 4: Your boy with the Eagles, Lane Johnson. He's also started 836 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 4: to bastards it too. 837 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 2: They're gonna say Jason Peters, remember Jason Peters back into 838 00:37:59,160 --> 00:37:59,720 Speaker 2: his leg. 839 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 4: Kick when you saying that you get a little bit 840 00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 4: further off the ball. But here's my thing. I guess 841 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 4: I'm a little biased, but it's really hard to see 842 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 4: me offsides and if you really slowed down, like I thought, 843 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 4: I'm definitely the best at getting off on the snack 844 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 4: count probably some of the like. And I learned that 845 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 4: from Joe Thomas and Joe Staley within the rules, because 846 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 4: the rule is the moment the ball begins to move, 847 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 4: you can move. But these assholes and now overdone it 848 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 4: and made it so apparent that it like just takes 849 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 4: a good you're ruining good thing. Now they're gonna be 850 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,759 Speaker 4: worried about you on the ball, which has already been 851 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 4: an issue that was kind of quiet within like the 852 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 4: the refs had always come like there's so many times 853 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 4: you come up and be like, hey, you're getting warned. 854 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 4: Hey get up, like okay, cool, thank you for talking 855 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 4: to me, Like, work with me. Ref don't just throw 856 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:46,359 Speaker 4: a flag like I'll scoot up for sure, And that's 857 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 4: what you do. You respect the rule, that's what it is. 858 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,319 Speaker 4: But like you know, like John Taylor, he's not gonna 859 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,440 Speaker 4: get called because it's Patrick Mahomes and everyone wants to 860 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 4: watch pack and home play. So if you just kind 861 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 4: of keep ignoring and keep scooting back and keep getting off, 862 00:38:58,239 --> 00:38:59,839 Speaker 4: really like, they're not gonna call a flag. Everyone knows 863 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 4: call flag every game. It's like, I think we know 864 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,359 Speaker 4: DB's understand the same thing. They aren't call holding every time. 865 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 4: So like thread the needle, you know, you can get 866 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 4: a little in the gray area, but just don't overdo 867 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 4: it where then it's like, Okay, now we're gonna put 868 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 4: an emphasis on it, and then refs will legitimately ruin games. 869 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 4: And that's where I look at these guys. I'm like, 870 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 4: you guys ruined such a good thing. We had such 871 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,480 Speaker 4: a good thing going. It was the best. 872 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 3: I got two more questions for you. 873 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: One, who is the one player pass rusher that gave 874 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 1: you the most concerns before a game? 875 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 4: It's tough what year because like my rookie year Alan 876 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 4: Smith was amazing, but I would take my older self 877 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 4: and put me in that situation again, let's face them, 878 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 4: and I think I actually did when he was on 879 00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 4: the cow somewhere else, and I fear I fared way better. 880 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 4: But also I don't think he was as good. So 881 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 4: that's I've gotten that question a lot. Who's the best 882 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:11,879 Speaker 4: pass rush of Ragon against I don't know. I've been 883 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 4: I've played a lot of unbelievable guys. 884 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 2: Chad wants you to say Khalil Mack. 885 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 4: No, I'll be on player. Here's the thing, Cli maxophanomen player. 886 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 4: Nothing against him. He's one of the best pure d 887 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 4: ms against to get after the quarterback and also get 888 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,839 Speaker 4: off the U to stop the runner. But I'm gonna 889 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 4: be honest, I match up really well against him. And 890 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 4: if you go back film, like you know, I put 891 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:39,840 Speaker 4: the leash on him and I take him for a 892 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 4: walk in past bro and there are a couple of 893 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,719 Speaker 4: times in the run game where I'm not known from 894 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 4: a run blocking, but I'm taking him to the ground. 895 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 4: He's complaining to the ref because he wants holding, and 896 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:48,919 Speaker 4: that's when that's when you know you're in a guy's head. 897 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 4: When he's begging the REF to help him out. So though, no, 898 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 4: no disrespect, I think he's a stud. I've seen him 899 00:40:56,560 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 4: absolutely wreck games and ruined offensive lineman's career. It's just 900 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 4: how he plays matches up really good to me. I'm 901 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:04,799 Speaker 4: trying to think, like. 902 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 2: I'm trying to do the bike gets have anyone to 903 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:08,720 Speaker 2: give you issues. I'm trying to someone in your division 904 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 2: ever since uh ever since Griffin. 905 00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I hate it going against him, but he 906 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,880 Speaker 4: also is playing me majority and like my prime and ascension, 907 00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 4: so like I fare pretty well against him, but he 908 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 4: was extremely tough. He's up in my top five for sure. 909 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 4: Like I talked off into line and they're like, I 910 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 4: hate a playing because he's just gonna he's gonna he's 911 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 4: gonna try and break your will for sixty minutes. And 912 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 4: he's six foot one six two two seventy five with 913 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,759 Speaker 4: a gunner and is just on turf in just five 914 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,600 Speaker 4: steps and then just gonna absolutely smoke your face for 915 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,800 Speaker 4: sixty minutes. So that sucks. I mean, honestly, Julius Peppers 916 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 4: is up there and I got a chance to play 917 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 4: with him, but I wish it would have played in 918 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 4: his prime, right, you know it's I'm saying I just 919 00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 4: so I could really see because even. 920 00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,399 Speaker 2: If by Jared Allen is prime, did you miss Jared Allen? 921 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 4: I'm saying I played him, but I don't think I 922 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,719 Speaker 4: didn't play him in Yeah, I started coming down and 923 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:06,280 Speaker 4: I like, he gave me some fits, but I fared 924 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 4: pretty well against him, so oh man, it's tough. I 925 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 4: can't give you a name. That's how good you are, bro. Yeah, exactly, 926 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 4: disrespectful to to some other guys, like, uh, I can 927 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,879 Speaker 4: play some guys. I think their SUTs. I think I 928 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 4: love both the Bosa brothers. I think they're awesome. I 929 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 4: think Miles Garrett is unbelievable. And the last time I played, 930 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:33,760 Speaker 4: the only time I really played him was his rookiear 931 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 4: and it was also one of my best years that 932 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 4: I ever played. But I do remember I'm like, if 933 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:40,840 Speaker 4: this kid can just figure it out, he'll dominate anybody. 934 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 4: Because he was very tough to play, but I had 935 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 4: the better day and better him because just timing, like 936 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 4: I just understood the game better, but I could tell 937 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 4: he was just kind of feeling it out and didn't 938 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 4: really get it. But I'm like, once this guy understands 939 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:55,959 Speaker 4: himself and how to play. He's going to destroy dudes, 940 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 4: and that's what you're seeing today. So tough for me 941 00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:02,279 Speaker 4: to just, you know, name one guy. 942 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,560 Speaker 3: What last question?

We 963 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 4: don't really slow down that much everyone comes down to 964 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 4: our level. We don't really drop because we don't really 965 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 4: have a high top end speed to begin with, so 966 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 4: it's just better. And we're organically and sulated, so we 967 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,239 Speaker 4: already run a little bit hotter. So I kind of just, 968 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,919 Speaker 4: at least for me, I kind of enjoyed those games. 969 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 4: They no sleep thing. I don't know, it's more of 970 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 4: a mentality. The older ass came in and it was 971 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 4: just kind of like a don't be a bitch. When 972 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 4: I was fucking wearing sleeves, IM all right cool when 973 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,880 Speaker 4: I were in sleeves, Like, it's a mindset. So I 974 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:36,879 Speaker 4: didn't and then but I mean you can. You can 975 00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 4: find ways around it. Like I had elbow sleeves. I 976 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 4: did that. I covered up like I don't know, a 977 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 4: third of my arms. There's this stuff called like a 978 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 4: warm skin, which is like a borderline like vasaline that 979 00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 4: you kind of rub into your arms and it makes 980 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 4: you feel I don't know, kind of warmer. It doesn't 981 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:57,440 Speaker 4: get make your skin better with the being exposed of 982 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 4: cold temperatures. And but I can guarantee you like we had. 983 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 4: We've had a couple of guys like Elton Jenkins. He's 984 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 4: like been begging to wear sleeves, and I think now 985 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:09,919 Speaker 4: that I'm definitely gone, he'll definitely will. And these younger 986 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 4: guys are coming in. It's all about like the swag 987 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:15,880 Speaker 4: and you know, like having like the hand or hand warmer, 988 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 4: like little pocket thing the quarterbacks have on them now 989 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 4: and the shirt's being untucked and so I yeah, they're 990 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,799 Speaker 4: gonna definitely rock sleeves. It's it was definitely more like 991 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 4: my generation, the generation before me. I kind of came 992 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 4: in and this is definitely changing because they want to 993 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:29,839 Speaker 4: make sure it looks swaggy and cool. 994 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 3: Well, young kids are so freaking soft. It's just sad. 995 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 4: That's how you know we're old, is because when we 996 00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:40,160 Speaker 4: start calling them soft. Yeah, exactly, I'm just gonna say it. Netflix. 997 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 4: I believe that they're going to do an offensive lineman 998 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 4: one because they've done quarterbacks. They did like the receivers 999 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 4: or yeah, it's coming out right, They're gonna do an 1000 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 4: offensive line in one, and that's gonna put offense limon 1001 00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 4: on the map, because I think they're gonna finally realize 1002 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 4: that no disrespect, but most guys are pretty boring and 1003 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:02,600 Speaker 4: offense linen are honestly fucking hilarious. The amount of characters 1004 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,719 Speaker 4: that you get, it's like, uh, that ugly dude. So 1005 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 4: we've kind of been told that our whole life, and 1006 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,399 Speaker 4: now we're gone. We're kind of cool around the cool 1007 00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,359 Speaker 4: guys and we everyone's kind of got money and we're 1008 00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:13,120 Speaker 4: playing professional sports, but we're still just like kind of 1009 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 4: like that fatgally like dude. So we're like we all 1010 00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 4: automatically develop way better personalities where we have jokes like 1011 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 4: I don't know why. It's like every ovinse line has 1012 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 4: a joke. I don't know why, but that's just kind 1013 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:26,280 Speaker 4: of like in our repertoire, and uh, I can definitely 1014 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 4: see that airing and then people kind of put an 1015 00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 4: offense line on that, being like, these guys are unfucking 1016 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,120 Speaker 4: believable and hilarious even when we're trying not to be, 1017 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 4: Like certain guys are super serious, and even by being 1018 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 4: super serious, you're super funny. It's just I don't know, 1019 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 4: it's just a thing. 1020 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:40,800 Speaker 3: Who is your cast? 1021 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,520 Speaker 4: I want to see Laramie Tunsel. He's probably pretty like. 1022 00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:45,840 Speaker 4: I also love his game, love him as a tackle. 1023 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 4: I think he'll be kind of like more of the 1024 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,920 Speaker 4: cooler guy because he's got. He's definitely got some swagger 1025 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 4: to him and especially how he dresses, and he lives 1026 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 4: the good life, so that way you get one dynamic 1027 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 4: of him. 1028 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 2: The most famous, arguably podcaster is an offensive lineman and 1029 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 2: kel So. It's like, I'm not saying altins line are 1030 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:05,400 Speaker 2: peeking right now, but yeah, holding someone in sports media 1031 00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 2: twenty years ago that the biggest podcast would be you know, 1032 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 2: Lawan has got a huge podcast, and Kelsey.

The funniest dudes on the team are 1034 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,359 Speaker 2: usually the offensive lineman and then the funny ass. 1035 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 4: D Tack was a d lineman because the other guy 1036 00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 4: they're too worried about their image, like wide receivers dbs, 1037 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,479 Speaker 4: I gotta be cool, so I always gott to look cool, 1038 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 4: whereas like fat chubby Detacker, like I'm fat and chubby. 1039 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:30,879 Speaker 4: I got paid a bunch of money to be fat 1040 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 4: and chubby, so it's gonna have a good old time. 1041 00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 4: Like if I'm gonna eat this whole kike, I'm gonna 1042 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 4: eat this whole kick like not even something you're not 1043 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 4: even trying to be funny, but it's hilarious. Just how 1044 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 4: like the thought process of it I wish the Packers 1045 00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 4: way back in the day we ever did a hard 1046 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:47,879 Speaker 4: knocks because one, the amount of crazy, stupid acanine shit 1047 00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,479 Speaker 4: that the offensive lineman would do probably would have gotten 1048 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 4: the Packers in trouble. To be frank, like, we just 1049 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 4: randomly go in, just get like tape a due up 1050 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 4: in milli meetings. The amount of times like just like 1051 00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 4: the four jokes, dumb jokes like drawing dicks and like 1052 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 4: the white do this. Any other athletes you ever have 1053 00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:05,880 Speaker 4: on asked them what the funnest position meeting room is 1054 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:07,359 Speaker 4: and if they don't know, that means he never left 1055 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,879 Speaker 4: a meeting room, which automatically makes them boring. Or two. 1056 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:12,800 Speaker 4: Many coaches will always say offense line room is the best, 1057 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,080 Speaker 4: is the best room always going to. It's always the 1058 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,880 Speaker 4: most fun, It's always most dynamic. We always had guests, 1059 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 4: Like anytime we had a guess if you ever came 1060 00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 4: in it was your first time in there, you had 1061 00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:23,759 Speaker 4: to automatically leave. We had a rookie go take you 1062 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 4: out and said, what's your name? What school did you 1063 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 4: go to? He'd come back in. We turn off all 1064 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 4: the lights and then the lights would turn on and 1065 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:31,760 Speaker 4: he'd have a microphone. He had to have a bottle 1066 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:33,799 Speaker 4: in his hand, and he'd scream from the top of 1067 00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 4: his lungs like back in w and'd be like and no, 1068 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 4: and he'd say his name in his school. And then 1069 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 4: we do this whole Da Dad, And we'd have this 1070 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 4: whole like take up like a good two minutes. And 1071 00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 4: then the person that we just introduced they had to 1072 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,879 Speaker 4: they had to tell us a joke. Then they can 1073 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:52,760 Speaker 4: and if they came in for a cup of coffee 1074 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:55,319 Speaker 4: to tell a coach one thing or whatever, like if 1075 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,120 Speaker 4: this could be the head coach, this could be a scout. 1076 00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 4: It didn't matter. The rules say the same for anybody. 1077 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 4: I mean, maybe the GM could probably get away of it, 1078 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 4: but even the head coach had to succumb to to 1079 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:06,719 Speaker 4: our rules. But that's what like the dynamic of our 1080 00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 4: room is, and that's what made it. 1081 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:09,040 Speaker 3: So much fun. 1082 00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 1: I always felt like offensive linemen when I was covering 1083 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 1: the league and on the road. 1084 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 3: They were always the best people to talk to. 1085 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,200 Speaker 1: They they knew every play, they knew every formation, they 1086 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 1: could give every answer, They were closest to the ball. 1087 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 3: They were the smartest guys in the room. 1088 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,399 Speaker 1: If you wanted to know anything about what was going 1089 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,920 Speaker 1: on with the team, you talk to the offensive lineman. 1090 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:34,360 Speaker 4: I think what I love about it is that most 1091 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 4: linemen do pretty well post career, because we didn't really 1092 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:41,359 Speaker 4: like fall in love with the idea of ourselves while 1093 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 4: we were playing.
