5
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:15,960

Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm doing all right. You know I

8
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:21,880

00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 2: But yeah, so it looks like I'm gonna have some

11
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 2: some bone chips removed next week. That's kind of the

12
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: plan right now. But like I said, just grinding trying

13
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 2: to get back out there. I think, is really that

14
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:35,640

00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,520

17
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 3: You will get that cy young to get back healthy.

18
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 4: I believe it.

19
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 3: But here we are, right and I just want to

20
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,599
Speaker 3: know a guy that's been through injuries myself, you know

21
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 3: how hard is it one watching your team knowing they

22
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 3: could use your arm every five days? And then two, like,

23
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 3: what's your mentality process on going through this? Are you

24
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 3: relieve that it isn't worse than you know, than.

25
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 4: It could have been.

26
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 3: There, Like, where are you mentally on this right now?

27
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 3: As far as the steps and process moving forward.

28
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 2: First off, I appreciate the confidence that means a lot

29
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 2: coming from you, So thank you.

30
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 5: For saying that.

31
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, dude, right now obviously, like you know,

32
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 2: like you said, it could be a lot worse. I mean,

33
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 2: that's that's kind of how I've been looking at it.

34
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 2: You know, it could be TJ, it could be you know,

35
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 2: some kind of shoulder surgery. You know, it's you know,

36
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 2: each little setback has been minor, but you know it's

37
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 2: something that you can't push through because then it'll turn

38
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: into something major. So I think for me, the most

39
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: frustrating part right now is kind of figuring out, you know,

40
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 2: why we keep having these little setbacks and you know,

41
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 2: really trying to you know, look into the specifics of things.

42
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 2: And right now, I mean, I think, you know, these

43
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 2: kind of these bone chips are kind of you know,

44
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 2: creating all that.

45
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 5: You know, it's something that I've kind of dealt.

46
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: With for the last three or four seasons and now

47
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 2: just kind of gotten to the point where you know,

48
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 2: it's really kind of you can't really push through it,

49
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 2: you know, like you're saying, you don't want, you know,

50
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 2: to play through an injury, and then it starts to

51
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 2: turn into something else and something you know severe. So

52
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 2: obviously it's frustrating right now. Man, just trying to trying

53
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: to get through it, you know, leaning on my family,

54
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 2: my teammates, everybody's been pretty supportive.

55
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 5: You know. Like I said, it's really hard not being

56
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 5: able to be out there and and to pitch.

57
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 2: But uh, you know, we got to get this thing

58
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 2: fixed and you know, do everything we can to get

59
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 2: back out there and get back to being healthy.

60
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 6: I gotta just flip the switch. That background, Is that

61
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 6: a background or is that real in the back of

62
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 6: your house there. I mean, that's probably the incredible background.

63
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 4: I always rock.

64
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 5: I've ever, I've ever.

65
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 6: That's my first time talking to them, I mean that

66
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 6: is absolutely incredible.

67
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, phrase, this is the first time I think you've

68
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 2: you've been on the show.

69
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 4: When I've been on.

70
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 5: I feel like I've been on a bunch, but you

71
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 5: know you've always duck me, so uh yeah, I like exactly.

Speaker 4: Yeah.

73
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 2: So I've been I mean very fortunate to have been

74
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 2: raised in the outdoors.

75
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 5: I live in Texas.

00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 2: My my uncle is a wildlife biologist and you know,

77
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: specializes in deer management and everything. So I like to

78
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 2: you know, think I do the right things when I

79
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 2: hunt outdoors. But yeah, being raised by family that that's

80
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,079

00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 7: No, I'm kidding, they're tough. They're tough.

94

Speaker 6: Hey, they'll go ahead you're doing and they'll be in

95
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 6: a different part. I know Scott wants to talk a

96
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 6: little bit more about the injury. I want to talk

97
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 6: about some of the trade tips you got going on

98
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 6: here are not trade ships guys that have left. You know,

99
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 6: you got to know the Ryan o'harons and Cedric mullins

100
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 6: of the world. I know you're gonna miss him. Got

Speaker 6: direction of these Orioles going with all the acquisitions and

103
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 6: guys that left.

104
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I mean, obviously, you know, it really sucks

105
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 2: to lose teammates, you know, like you said, you know

106
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 2: Cedric O'Hearn, you know, those are two, you know, unbelievable guys,

107
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 2: clubhouse leaders. But I mean when you really kind of

108
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 2: you know, you have to look back at you know,

109
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 2: you know what's what's who's still on a team, and

110
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 2: you know, you kind of you know, you move on.

111
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 2: You know, you know, whatever happens yesterday, you know, is

112
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: not gonna affect.

113
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 5: Us today or tomorrow.

114
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: You know, being in Baltimore, we have an extremely young,

115
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 2: talented corps group of guys. You know, a lot of

116
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 2: guys like Gunner, Jordan Westburg, Colton Cowser, I mean, Adley

117
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 2: like you know, a lot of us played in the

118
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 2: minor leagues coming up together. So you know, you know

119
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 2: we're obviously going to stay together. You know, that's kind

120
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: of the focus. I mean, there's a lot of guys

121
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 2: you know, obviously still left in the clubhouse, you know,

122
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: that can go out and win a World Series next year,

123
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: you know, years down the road. But yeah, I mean,

124
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 2: you know, it's you know, the trade deadline. You know,

125
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 2: you're either you know you're getting players or you know,

126
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 2: trading them away. And you know, unfortunately for us, this

127
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 2: is the first time, you know, we've had to experience

128
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 2: something like that.

129
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 5: But I think, you know, in all, it's gonna make

130
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 5: us better ballplayers.

131
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 2: You know, a lot of guys we haven't been in

132
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 2: the big leagues for too long, and you know, kind

133
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 2: of seeing this and you know, know, you know how

134
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 2: bad it sucks. That's just gonna you know, motivate us

135
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 2: next year for this not to happen. Ever again, I

136
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: think it's kind of how you know, we're looking at

137
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:57,919

00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 1: now you can get twenty percent off your first slab

159
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: pack or your first card purchase if you're going on

160
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: there and you're just like, hey, I want a specific card.

161
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: I find it there, I want to grab it for

162
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: my showroom. Arena Club dot com slash foul and use

163
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: the code fo U l gras and I'll relate this

164
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: to you for a moment too. So, yeah, the team,

165
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: you know it's it's not going to be a playoff

166
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 1: team this year. So that's what you do at the deadline,

167
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: You sell so that you can load up for the future.

168
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: Did any of your decision making, like with the surgery

169
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: you have to do with where the team is at

170
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: as well. Would this have happened regardless or like, you know,

171
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 1: like sometimes guys will be like, I'm going to try

172
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: and push through it.

173
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 7: I think Reese Olsen right now is a shoulder injury.

174
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: With the Tigers, and he's like, I might be able

175
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: to come back in October.

176
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 7: No surgery for now. Was any of that on the table?

177
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: And because of the team's not going to be playing

178
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: in October, you can be like, hey, I need to

179
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: get right and be ready to jump at spring training

180
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 1: next year.

181
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 2: No, not really, you know, I mean obviously, you know

182
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 2: I ended the year on the il last year, you know,

183
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 2: tried to get back for the playoffs and that wasn't possible.

184
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 5: But no, I mean I don't.

185
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 2: Think really, you know, how the team was playing had

186
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 2: an effect on my decision. I think for me personally,

187
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 2: it just got to a point where Okay, I can't

188
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 2: pitch through this. I tried, you know, since spring training

189
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 2: I had an issue with it. It was the second

190
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 2: start of my spring training where I had to come

191
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 2: out early and it was due to these you know,

192
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 2: the bone chips and stuff in my elbow that just

193
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 2: you know, it had too much inflammation, uh in the area,

194
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 2: and you know kind of you know, rehabbing through the

195
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 2: first half of the season. You know, finally, you know,

196
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 2: you just kind of get to a point where it's like, Okay,

197
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 2: you know, I've dealt with this for three or four

198
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 2: years now, and now it's just to the point where.

199
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 5: You know, it's just you know, it sucks. It just

200
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 5: you know, won't go away and.

201
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 2: Said, no, I have I have to get it taken

202
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 2: care of, you know, in order to you know, be

203
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 2: who I want to be next season, you know, I

204
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 2: think is most important uh to me, and just trying

205
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 2: to get everything ironed out so I can come back

206
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 2: next year and you know, hopefully you know, make thirty

207
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,439
Speaker 2: starts and take a team into the postseason.

208
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:57,359
Speaker 7: Cam you muted.

209
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 3: So sorry you talk about losing some of those veteran guys, right,

210
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 3: and Cedric Mullins has been there for a long time.

211
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 4: O'Hearn has been around the game.

212
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 3: I think everybody has an ability to lead in their

213
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 3: own way, right, I don't I don't believe truly, you

214
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 3: you know, it's just one guy that leads the truths.

215
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 3: I think the manager has a big part to do

216
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 3: with it, and I think it's the guys around. But

217
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 3: as those guys have kind of left the clubhouse, who have.

218
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 4: You feel like?

219
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 3: Because it's hard when you're not playing right, who have

220
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 3: you felt like is kind of try to step into

221
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 3: that role because we know this isn't a season that

222
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 3: you guys expect, especially with the expectation that you guys

223
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 3: have built the last couple of seasons. Who's kind of

224
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 3: stepping into that role and say, hey, guys, you know what,

225
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 3: we're gonna finish this your strongest. Hell, we're gonna, you know,

226
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 3: give it everything we got and kind of let's focus

227
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 3: on the winning and not the individual, you know, element

228
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 3: of the game, because that's what happens when you get

229
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 3: kind of in this end stretch.

230
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 4: You start to kind of me, me, me.

231
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 3: But who's the guy kind of trying to still galvanize

232
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,839
Speaker 3: and say, hey, let's win at all costs and that'll

233
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 3: kind of help.

234
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 4: Us roll things into next season. Who's kind of taking

235
00:09:58,720 --> 00:09:59,439
Speaker 4: that leadership role?

236
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's Gunner for sure. It's Gunner Henderson.

237
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 2: You know, I can see you know it's spring training

238
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 2: this year. You know, when you have the whole you know,

239
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 2: you remember how spring training is. You know, there's a

240
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 2: lot of dudes in that clubhouse, you know, the first

241
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,439
Speaker 2: couple of weeks, a lot of faces. You don't know,

242
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 2: you're trying to get familiar with a lot of guys,

243
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 2: you do know. You know, anytime we had team meetings

244
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 2: or you know, anything with the whole camp, you know,

245
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 2: Gunner was always you know, taking charge, saying some things,

246
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 2: you know, telling us about things we could do better,

247
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:31,719
Speaker 2: I mean different things.

248
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 4: He was.

249
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 2: He was taking a leadership role early this year, you know,

250
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 2: and you can kind of see that last year. But

251
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 2: this year I think he really stepped forward. And I

252
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 2: think that's somebody who's kind of steering the ship right

253
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 2: now and gives a lot of people, or a lot

254
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 2: of guys on the team, you know, someone you know,

255
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 2: I don't know, just to get some advice, to get

256
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 2: some help.

257
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 4: You know.

258
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 2: Gunner, I mean, awesome guy, you know, awesome clubhouse guy.

259
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 5: He plays hard. The the funniest.

260
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 2: Thing I can say about Gunner is like this dude

261
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 2: could be three for three four for four one or

262
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 2: two Homer, you know, I mean playing having an unbelievable game.

263
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 2: But he's gonna go up to each at bat and

264
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 2: he's gonna grind like it's its own thing. You know,

265
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 2: some guys you might be able to see, you know,

266
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 2: a guy gets a hit and he's like, Okay, I'm

267
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 2: good for the day. I got a knock Gunner. I mean,

268
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter, you know, what a bat, what point

269
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,079
Speaker 2: of the game. You know, he's gonna give it his all.

270
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,559
Speaker 2: And I think guys see that the way he hustles,

271
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 2: you know, on and off the field. I think I

272
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 2: think guys are really going to look to him, and

273
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 2: you know, he's been able to step up and kind

274
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 2: of getting that leadership role.

275
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 4: Last one for me. As I look behind you, I

276
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 4: see you got the whole crew, Donner, Bliss and comic Cupid.

277
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 4: You got where's Rudolph?

278
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 6: Like?

279
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:42,839
Speaker 2: Have you?

280
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 3: Rudolph has alluded to that's the last one we need

281
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 3: on the wall.

282
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 5: He's up there somewhere.

283
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 4: That's the jersey book we're talking about. Phrase Rudolph.

284
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,199
Speaker 2: All right, Yeah, we've put a red we put a

285
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 2: red nose on him, uh years ago.

286
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 5: So people kind of like that.

287
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 4: But all right, that's dope, that's cool. That's it.

288
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 8: I love it, Hey, Grayson, Yeah, yeah, sorry, I was

289
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 8: gonna say, I don't know if you'll ever had venison,

290
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,199
Speaker 8: but it is the best meat you can buy.

291
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 2: I mean, it's better than anything in the grocery store.

292
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 2: You know, all these deer that we harvest are eating

293
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 2: and donated to food banks and stuff. So, uh, it's

294
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 2: the meat is spectacular. Just so if y'all ever get

295
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 2: the chance to eat it, try it.

296
