1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,600 Speaker 1: Matthew, thank you for doing this. Um, I'm going to 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:05,760 Speaker 1: ask a quick question, turn off my video, and then 3 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 1: start driving. So I just wanted you to know why 4 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: I was doing that. Can you just sort of give 5 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 1: us a sort of state of the state of where 6 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: you see things are with the team right now coming 7 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: off of yesterday's game. Yeah, First of all, be safe 8 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:24,319 Speaker 1: there as you drive. You know, I would say that 9 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: at this point in time, what we have to do 10 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 1: is make sure first and foremost that we stick together. 11 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot going on. Obviously, when you 12 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: deal with adversity, you want to make sure that there's 13 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,879 Speaker 1: no splinter in what you're doing, no splinter in the 14 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: locker room, no splinter between the players and the coaches. 15 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: You want to keep your head down and stay as 16 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 1: positive as you can and just fight through it. I mean, 17 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 1: we have we have some choices here, right I think 18 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: one of the choices is to let this just spiral 19 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: out of control, and the other choice is to, you know, 20 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: try to put our feet in the ground and make 21 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: a stand and fight. And you know, I believe in 22 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 1: the character of the men in this locker room. I 23 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: believe that we'll fight no matter the circumstances, even though 24 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: we're being faced with some adversity right now. I believe 25 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: that's the choice that we're gonna make. But it's not 26 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: going to be an easy choice. It's not something that 27 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: we're just going to show up and things are going 28 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: to happen. And we've experienced some of this early on 29 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: in the season. It's going to require a lot of 30 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: tough decisions, a lot of tough football, and it's gonna 31 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: be hard. I mean, that's just the reality of football 32 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: in the NFL during this time of the year. So, look, 33 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: we still have an opportunity to accomplish the things that 34 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: we shut out to accomplish at the beginning of the season. 35 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: But it's not going to be something that just happens. 36 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: It's not going to be simple for so I hope 37 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: and believe that we'll handle it the right way and 38 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: respond with some toughness and some resolve, and you know, 39 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: we'll see where that gets us at the end of 40 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 1: the Thank you, no problem. Next question Mark Daniels. Hey, Matthew, 41 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 1: when when you guys are facing university as captains, do 42 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: you do you guys like call it there's only meetings 43 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: sort of what steps do you take to you know, 44 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 1: to try to get everyone on the same page page. Yeah, 45 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it's it's interesting because much as 46 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: may of those player only meetings and professional sports, UM, 47 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 1: but I think that's you know, at various year to year, 48 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: group to group, leader to leader, um, the group that 49 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 1: you're leading, you have to know them and understand how 50 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: they would respond to that sort of thing. So I 51 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: think for all of us as leaders on this team, 52 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: we have different gifts and we have to lead within 53 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: those gifts. We can't try to be anyone that we're not. 54 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: We can't get out of character in any way, shape 55 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: or for them. So I think it's our job too 56 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: and still confidence in our guys to encourage them, to 57 00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: challenge them, to support them, and certainly to still belief 58 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: in these guys during this time. So we'll all do 59 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: that in our own way. But as I said in 60 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: response to Mike's question, is very important that we stick 61 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: together no matter what happens, no matter what the outcome, 62 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: this team is only as good as it's going to 63 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: be when we stick together, and we have to do 64 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: that at this time. Thank you. Oh problem. Next question, 65 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 1: Alan Siegel and Matthew how you doing this afternoon. I'm 66 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: doing well and how are you. I'm fine. Thanks. You know, 67 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: earlier in the year you had some adversity, but there 68 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: were plenty of games left to go. Devin talked about 69 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: this a little bit yesterday in terms of you've just 70 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: got two games left in the regular season, and you know, 71 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: the playoffs are definitely a goal in mind. So with 72 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: that said, in terms of execution in December, how do 73 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: you get that back? You know, quickly, knowing that the 74 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 1: time is starting to run out a little bit here, Yeah, 75 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: you know, if the season is a marathon, uh, we're 76 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: in the strength the sprint portion of our race. Now 77 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: we have to finish this thing fast and furious. So 78 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: you know, I think everyone around here understands the urgency 79 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: that we need to operate with, the resolve that I mentioned, 80 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: that we need to operate with the detail that we 81 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: need to operate with. But you know, we can't spend 82 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: a bunch of time talking about this stuff. We've talked 83 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: about it all year long. Now it's about going out 84 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: there and actually doing it. And you know, talk is 85 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: cheap unless you back it up with action. So for us, 86 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: it's really about going out and performing and the reality 87 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: is either we will perform well at a competitive winning 88 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: level or we won't. It's as simple as that, and 89 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: that that's the you know, they're every team in the 90 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: league is in that situation right now. So we like 91 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: the fact that we have a fighting chance that we're 92 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: still in the mix here, but we have to make 93 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: it count and it's on us to play good, good 94 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: football right now. And I'll just follow it up whatever 95 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: quickly says. You know, it's funny. You're gonna have a 96 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: home losing record for the first time, you know, ever 97 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: under Bill, and the road record is six and one, 98 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: which is a chance if you win, you know, the 99 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: final game in Miami to be seven and won the 100 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,239 Speaker 1: best of it in the league. Why the difference between 101 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: home and a way this particular year something you can 102 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: put your finger on good question, But I don't know 103 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: that I can put my finger on it. I don't. 104 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: I don't know why that is. That's just kind of 105 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: the way it's gone for us this season. So I 106 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: don't think it matters to us where we play. We 107 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: certainly love playing here in Foxboro and having our fans 108 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: behind us, but at this time of year, like I 109 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: just said, we need to execute. Whether we're home, away, 110 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: neutral site, it doesn't matter. Our execution needs to be 111 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: better starting this week, and you know, it's unfortunate that 112 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: we just haven't played the way we'd like to at home. 113 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: Thanks Nap, Next question him Bob, Thank you, Stephanie Matthew, 114 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: thanks for your time today. Problem. You guys were two 115 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: and four and going into that following game, you started 116 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: a winning streaks. You were able to stick together through 117 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: a difficult, less than ideal start. What's different obviously that 118 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: there's a sense of urgency because of the time of 119 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: the year, and you're coming off a division loss that 120 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: you know represented an opportunity to move a step closer 121 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: to the division title. But the message about sticking together 122 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 1: is that any different than the message you had for 123 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: your teammates at two and four going into that next game. No, 124 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,559 Speaker 1: I don't think so. Look there, this is the nature 125 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: of pro sports. You're you're under a microscope constantly. Every 126 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: move you make, every decision you make, is talked about, 127 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 1: highly publicized, heavily scrutinized, and it's human nature for people 128 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: sometimes to let the out noise come in and cause division. 129 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: In addition to that, when you're faced with adversity. It's 130 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: also a human nature for there to potentially be some 131 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: sort of division. So I think for us we have 132 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: to be as intentional as possible to make sure that 133 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: we don't let that happen. I'm not saying that that's 134 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: the case with this football team. I'm just saying it's 135 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: something that we need to be conscious of and stick together. 136 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: So whether we were two and four earlier in the year, 137 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: the message was the same. And now that we've dropped 138 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: a couple late in the year and the narratives arounding 139 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: our football teams as I'm sure done this over the 140 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: course of the year, it's the same thing. We have 141 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: to stick together. We have to fight and do everything 142 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: we can as a family together and see where that 143 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: gets us. Because because you've seen and I've seen it 144 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: being in a sleep for a long time or teams 145 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: don't do that and it just totally unravels on them. 146 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: So that's going to be my message, is us sticking together. 147 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: Other guys may have other messages and those are going 148 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: to be worthy as well, but you know, we gotta 149 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: stay together. I'll ask your forgiveness for posing this question, 150 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: because I know you have team matters on your mind, 151 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: but this is the last going home game of the season, 152 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: and you know, given the state of your career and 153 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: where you are in it, you're also another Pro Bowl. 154 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: You know, in the midst of another Pro Bowl season. 155 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: Will there any be any point in time during this 156 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: week when you think about this being the last home 157 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: game of this season and you know, consider the future 158 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: at all. I'm always partnering my future of well, you know, 159 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: especially at my point in my point in my career, 160 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: with my family and my kids expecting my fourth child. 161 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: But I can't let that affect what is happening now, 162 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: so I'm going to just stay in the present. I 163 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: appreciate that question, certainly, but my primary focus on Sunday 164 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: is not to go out there and become nostalgic. It's 165 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: to go out there and play well against the Jacksonville Jaguar. 166 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: Belated congratulations on another Pro Bowl and more importantly the 167 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: news of the fourth child counting. Thank you very much. 168 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: Pray for us, we and over his there. Thanks. Thanks. 169 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: Next question, Chris Ryan and Matthew um have two questions 170 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 1: within one um. You know, hearing from Bill and from 171 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: everybody after the game both this week and last week 172 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 1: a lot about you know, the competitive nature of this 173 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 1: group and it's kind of not being up to um 174 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: where you need to be against the Colts and the Bills. 175 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: And the other one is on execution. So in those 176 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: two areas, what do you see as being the rationale 177 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: for how you've gotten to this point, Why you have 178 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 1: not been, from a physical or mental standpoint, as competitive 179 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: as you need to be. And also why has the 180 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: execution not been um what you would expect it to 181 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: be at this point. Yeah, well, if I had the 182 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,440 Speaker 1: answer to the first question, we wouldn't be we wouldn't 183 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: be in the situation that we're in. You know, it's 184 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: tough to really put your finger on why it is, 185 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: because I feel like this group takes a lot of 186 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: pride and preparing the right way and trying to do 187 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: things the right way and respecting the process. And certainly 188 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: it's never perfect, but our pursuit is perfection. I do 189 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: think one thing that has hurt us is the way 190 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: we've started these games last couple of weeks. When you're 191 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: playing good football teams, you just can't play from behind, 192 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: you can't spot them a fast start. It's just too tough. 193 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: So I think for us starting fast it's no mystery. 194 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: Every team in the league wants to do it. But 195 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: starting fast is something that we need to do a 196 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: better job of so that the game is more competitive 197 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 1: early on and we can allow ourselves to get into 198 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: a competitive group if you will. The execution wise, you know, 199 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: there are a lot of things that you can attribute 200 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: the lack of execution too. Certainly it starts with us 201 00:10:55,000 --> 00:11:00,080 Speaker 1: as the players, whether it's our focus, our technique, you know, 202 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:04,839 Speaker 1: our physical prep, you know, preparation. All those things can 203 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: be better, and the margin of air this time of 204 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: year is so slim it's important for us to make 205 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: sure we're on top of that. So what we need 206 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 1: to do is control the controllables and that's going to 207 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: be our preparation due to the week, our mental attentiveness, 208 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 1: and then hopefully that translates for us this week and beyond. 209 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:34,719 Speaker 1: Thanks and final question, Steve Buckley and Matthew thanks for 210 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: your time. Not to put the answers to your questions 211 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: under a microscope, but earlier in this interview you use 212 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: the term tough decisions. We have to make tough decisions 213 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,319 Speaker 1: that that intrigues me. Can you expand on that a 214 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 1: little bit and discuss what kind of tough decisions you're 215 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,599 Speaker 1: talking about and what tough decisions have been made in 216 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 1: previous seasons that that can highlight the point. Yeah, certainly, Look, 217 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: there's a lot going on obviously what happens here in 218 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: the stadium in regards of football, But tough decisions involved 219 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: decisions that are made outside of the building. Coach always 220 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: talks about us eliminating the distractions not just inside the building, 221 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: but outside the building. And look, those things aren't easy 222 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: to do. As we live our personal lives outside of 223 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: here and things come up, you have to make choices. 224 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 1: You know, maybe you make a decision not to go 225 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: out and stay in and get your rest, that you 226 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: make a decision not to have that extra piece of 227 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: hake and as opposed to putting stuff in your body 228 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: that's going to help you. So I think those tough 229 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: decisions are made inside the building and they're made outside 230 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 1: the building. I think you can call them more sacrifices 231 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: than anything, and sacrificing some things for a while, pushing 232 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: them off for the duration of the season, just to 233 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: give yourself a chance to be at your best in 234 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: every area. Because as I said, the margin for winning 235 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 1: and losing is so so very thin. So yeah, it's 236 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: it's hard. Look, doing this and having success in this 237 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: league is a difficult thing. It doesn't matter where you play, 238 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: who you are, what you accomplish. It's hard to do 239 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: and it requires a lot of sacrifice, and it requires 240 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: tough decisions to be made where you have to prioritize 241 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: winning and being at your best. I chuse my words 242 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: carefully here, but is there a suggestion here that everybody 243 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: is not all in? Absolutely not No, that's not what 244 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:37,319 Speaker 1: I'm suggesting now, all right, all right, thank you, Matthew. 245 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,839 Speaker 1: We appreciate you joining us today.
