I 6 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 1: don't know if I got a virus and infects you 7 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: a science infection.

Okay, Matt Backer. Saturday night 12 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: you were at MSG. People are walking by you in 13 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: the hallways here at one Jets Drive and saying, yes, 14 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,840 Speaker 1: I saw you. Apparently the UFC event for the first 15 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: time New York City at the world's most famous arena. 16 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: And then that sounds like a commercial right there. And 17 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: Bart Scott was in the house to watch the Notorious One. Yeah, 18 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: well it was. It was a mismatch though. You know, 19 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: he was a lot taller, naturally taller, bigger than than 20 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: the kid I think Alvarez is his name. But he 21 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: put on a great show. He's a great personality. Um. 22 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: For the first time ever in New York. You know, 23 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: I didn't think it did It didn't disappoint um. But 24 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: next time, I think they're gonna have to have a 25 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: more exciting uh contest. You know. The thing is about 26 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: those fights, they're so short, um that sometimes a fan 27 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: can lead with a dissatisfiedation. Math you kind of want 28 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,039 Speaker 1: to see some blood and guts. But it was. It 29 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: was a good show, you know, UM. And I think 30 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: you know what I didn't like about it is that 31 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: it was so late.

No? No, no, you know I don't mind 37 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 1: being amongst the pizza. You know. I went out and 38 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: at Ubert home, I I walked came out of the seventh, 39 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: seventh Avenue, um, and then I walked down to eight 40 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: you know, men and wife he went and you know, 41 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,639 Speaker 1: get her out the crisip you know, show something different, 42 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: you know, having some fun. Many date night.

You kids catch them 46 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:10,919 Speaker 1: out of the elbow. It's a lot of blood everywhere. 47 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: But she didn't mind, you know. I mean she's from 48 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: the streets of your choice. She got a little good bobble. 49 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: So the arena. What's the UFC crowd like? Is there 50 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: any different than like a boxing crowd? Different? It's more 51 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: like soccer. It's more like soccer. You know. It's a 52 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: different crowd as well. You know, a lot of people 53 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: that's attracted to UFC may not particularly be you know, 54 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: the boxing fan. Boxing fan is a little bit more 55 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: of a casual fan. A lot of times they want 56 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: to be part of the moment, you know. Like UFC 57 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: is like a I don't want to say cold following 58 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: because that's a bad word, but I want I want 59 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: to say it's more like a like Red Bulls crowd. 60 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: It's a different, different demographic, you know. I mean, they 61 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: go hard and a lot of these fighters in the 62 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: UFC are from different countries, you know, so you get 63 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: that element as well. You get the soccer like environment. 64 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: You know, a lot of energy there. You're a lot 65 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: of che and a lot of you know, coaches from 66 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: the sideline. I found myself, you know, spitting out advice 67 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,119 Speaker 1: from the crowd too, because it kind of rubbed off 68 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: on me. Yeah, and I kind of telling the guy 69 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: circling to the wrong side, oh yeah, you got into it. 70 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 1: And my wife was like, listen, but she was like then, 71 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 1: you hate when people scream, fans screen stuff to you 72 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: from the stands, like you're you're that guy right now? 73 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: I said, you know what, you're right, shut up. Just 74 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: like a wife. I always put you back in now, 75 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: you said, the chance they sing songs like some of that. 76 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: And then you remember like when Ricky Hatten used come 77 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: on and he said Ricky, so they got like they 78 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: got their little set chance. You know these guys, you know, 79 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: there are a lot of people from Ireland. Are you 80 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: think it wasn't it? It wasn't as many as I thought. 81 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: It wasn't as many as I thought. You know, I 82 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: thought it was gonna be like Ricky Hatton when he 83 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: used to come over. You know, you have like you 84 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: know sometimes some of the Mexican fighters come over. You 85 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: have a following people come and get on the plane, 86 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: especially from New York. You would think because it's close, 87 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: you know, from top in the here maybe six six 88 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: and a half and then then it's an international airport 89 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: where it seemed like it would have been easier. But 90 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: you know, maybe they they're waiting for something greater too. Now, 91 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: Connor McGregor, he is a master marketer. Uh, do you 92 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: think that is something because you brought a lot of 93 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 1: personality to the game when you wanted to bring the juice, 94 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: you brought the juice yourself. Do you think that is 95 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: something you are born with or is that something that 96 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: a guy like that grows up in Ireland, he becomes 97 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 1: a fighter and then he sees away and says, I 98 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: can be a professional fighter, but I also know I 99 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: can make it really big by making this persona Do 100 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 1: you think that that part of that is who he 101 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: is or is that all him? Well, it has to 102 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: be part of who you are to be willing to 103 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: step out there and take that risk, you know, because 104 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: what happens is you're gonna be loved and hated at 105 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: the same time. You know you're gonna be loved by 106 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: the people that support you, especially if you can back 107 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: it up. You give them more feel the more ammo 108 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: to kind of support you and what you say. But 109 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: then you're gonna be hated by something that want you 110 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: to have some humble I want you to be modest 111 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: and things like that. It's a lot harder to step 112 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: out there because when you step out there, everybody's waiting 113 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: for you, hoping that you're getting knocked out, and they're 114 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: waiting for that day to day your demise, you know. 115 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 1: So it's harder because you're going to get the best 116 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: because you're hated by the opponent as well. But also, 117 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: like I said, the squeaky wheel gets the oil. If 118 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: you're able to be successful with doing that, it's a 119 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: lot of money involved in and that's how you, you know, 120 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: build up a fan base. Whether they love you, hate you, 121 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 1: they're gonna follow you. Do you have a sense of 122 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: how much of that is character, how much of that 123 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 1: is showman from him? Because I'm sure you don't know 124 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: personal level, but we've seen that with Diana, right. Dan 125 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: created Prime Time because it was something to sell, you 126 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: see Dennis Robbing, he was a massive marketer of it. 127 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: So but sometimes you can, you know, you have to 128 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: produce and We've seen guys that try to come out 129 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: and be personalities that failed because they weren't able to 130 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: put up the numbers. They weren't able to be successful. 131 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 1: You know, I see right now a guy in the 132 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: Crossroads is trying to be that massive marketer um that 133 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: has had some setbacks in his life. Is Adrian Broner. 134 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: You see a guy that is trying to take a 135 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: page out of the Floyd Mayweather playbook. But you know 136 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: what may Floyd Mayweather loves and hated and also you know, 137 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: a great draw whenever it came to an event, with 138 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: the fact that no matter how much you hated him, 139 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: he still won, you know, and people still want to 140 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: come up because they wanted to say they were there 141 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: the day he got his big mouth shut. How big 142 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: do you think he is mc gregor as far as 143 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: on a national scene here in the United States, he's 144 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: I think he's the biggest thing in USC right now. 145 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: Him and Randa Rousey. You know, you never know, like 146 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: why was Tebow, you know, arguably the biggest star in 147 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: the NFL without having a lot of production, obviously one 148 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: of the biggest you know, you never know what fans 149 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: are gonna gravitate to what people are gonna see. I think, 150 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: you know, in certain aspects, people when they look at 151 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: those guys, they see themselves, you know what I mean, 152 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: Or they see how they would be if they were 153 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: in that position, They see their provido, how they would respond. 154 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: So I think a lot of times that's when people 155 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: start following guys like Connor. But but does he like 156 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: a transcendent star already, like on a level crossover sports 157 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 1: like a Lebron James, or he started where Rhonda Rous 158 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: is right, if we see her in movies, she's one 159 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: of the highest pay athletes. You know, her fights are 160 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: sold out even more than men and things like that. 161 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: But then she got knocked out, you know, you know, 162 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: I think that set her back. But she went and 163 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: shot a movie. I think she was in Bond or 164 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: something like that, and she was in some movie I 165 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: forgot I saw. But she made a step to the 166 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: big stage. And that's what you see. You want to 167 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: see the people that that's able to transcend. You look 168 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: at when she was in the Entourage movie as well, right, yeah, yeah, 169 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: and you see like Rihanna, you know, people that cross 170 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: over the different markets, different genres um and I think 171 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: she's that. I think he's on the cusp of being 172 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: that he has to make sure they stays clean. I 173 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: get knocked out. I think before that a guy who 174 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: was kind of crossing over where people were paying attention 175 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: to other sports with bone Jones, you know, but he's 176 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,239 Speaker 1: had so many personal setbacks that he's not able to 177 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: take that next step because marketers don't trust them, so 178 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: they're not going to give him their products to trust. 179 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 1: You're not gonna see him with a watch company. You're 180 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: not gonna see him with a skin line. You're not 181 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: gonna see him out and commercials because they can't trust them. 182 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: You said, Hugh Jackman was at the Light the other night.

I think Beckham was backstage with McGregor. 185 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: You know. I think Beckham is one of those guys 186 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: is kind of trying to make that transition over to 187 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: to to Beckham has got to be a smaller guy, right, 188 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: he played soccer. Yeah, but yeah, but Beckham was a 189 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: lot bigger than McGregor. He's probably like they don't really 190 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: these people don't realize how big these guys. Yeah, McGregor's 191 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: tiny man. Yeah, like he probably got baby fist, junior 192 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: wapper hands.

Uh, 334 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: there's a show on Monday Night on the USA Network. 335 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 1: It wasn't Monday Night Raw was Um? Was it called 336 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: Prime Time Wrestling? It was mean gene Oakerland and Gorilla Monsoon. 337 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: Do you remember every one's while Guerrilla would come out 338 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 1: of Wressell every like ten years, come out his old 339 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: school can't come Bundy outfit and trying to gorillas. Oh 340 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 1: my god, those are golden years. Oh man, that's that's 341 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 1: when life was simple, man. Life. Um, alright, So the 342 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: election is over. Donald Trump is the president, and we're 343 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: not going to talk too much politics here. But after after, 344 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: after watching The Apprentice a few years back, I would 345 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: have never thought this could have been possible. You never 346 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: would have thought Schwarz would have been a governor California either, 347 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: Jesse Venturing the governor in Minnesota. I just think the 348 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,919 Speaker 1: establishment was fed up and good luck, be careful. What 349 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: you wished for should be a wild ride and we'll 350 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: see what happens. Now. You were at the fight. Uh, 351 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: you were at the fight Saturday night, So you did 352 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: not see Saturday Night Live. And I don't typically watch 353 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: Saturday Night Live anyway, but Dave Chappelle was on Saturday 354 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:25,439 Speaker 1: Night Live. Now he is he is brilliant, he is 355 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: edgy time he was farting, but he was also touching 356 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: at the same time. You know, you know, and Chappell, 357 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: I think you can make people feel uncomfortable too. You 358 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Show he can get he can 359 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: go into that sketch comedy, yes, and he can go 360 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: places that other people do. I need to go back 361 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: and watch it. You have to watch the open. Yes, yeah, 362 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: he ended it. I will say this that he ended 363 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: it with that, basically saying that, um, black people have 364 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: been disenfranchised for a long time. And what basically said was, 365 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 1: you know, I'm willing to give you a chance if 366 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 1: you're willing to give us a chance. He said that 367 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: at that But he had some jokes and he had 368 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 1: some skits in there that I never thought would be 369 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: on the n Okay. So, yes, you have to watch. 370 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: I gotta check it out. But you know what, comedians 371 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: have always had a place, I think in the healing 372 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: of a country because they can make they can take 373 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: these uncomfortable topics that they can make them lighthearted but 374 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,439 Speaker 1: still get the point through at the same time. You 375 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: know who does a great job of that is Chris Rock. 376 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: I think he's the best and really bringing politics and 377 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: what it's going on in society now to the stage. 378 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 1: Everybody can't do that. Everybody can't be like Kevin Hart. 379 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: Kevin Harden doesn't really bring any social issues because I 380 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: don't know if he's willing to offend anybody and really 381 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: turn off anybody from the fan base. But Chris Rock 382 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 1: has always done that seamlessly and where people still get 383 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: the message and they feel, you know, entertained and not 384 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: offended at the same time. Now, paraphrasing a little bit, 385 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: Kim Martin from Newsday Good reporter who covers the Jets daily, 386 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: caught up a Brandon Marshall about it, and she said, 387 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: they're basically talking about social issues right now, and Brandon, uh, again, 388 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing, but he said that I think sometimes guys 389 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 1: feel like pressured now to have a stance on everything 390 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 1: when it shouldn't be that way. You, as a former 391 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: athlete and as a guy out there all the time, 392 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: how do you feel about that? Because we grew up. 393 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: We're talking about the eighties. We grew up early nineties, 394 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: late eighties. Michael Jordan was always the guy that they 395 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 1: get on all the time who was never say anything 396 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,239 Speaker 1: k right. And now it seems like there's been a 397 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 1: shift where people are saying you have to take a 398 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: stance on something. And I want to get your view 399 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: on that, because my thing is and I'm not an athlete, 400 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: but I think Brandon is right on that is that 401 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 1: if you don't know enough about something, you should not 402 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: have to feel like educated you have the responsibility to 403 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: take a stance on everything. There should be some things 404 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: that you definitely should have opinions about, and everybody should 405 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 1: have freedom of speech. But I almost feel like there's 406 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 1: too much weight being put on some people in the 407 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: public eye. Well, I think if you don't feel comfortable 408 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: answering something, I think you should be able at least 409 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: to articulate that. Like they said, I don't know enough 410 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: about that, I'm still learning about it on research, and 411 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: I think that's fine. But to say you have nothing 412 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: to say, I think you can't go out there because 413 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: people too many people look up to you, you know 414 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: what I mean, And you know you talk about being 415 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,159 Speaker 1: a leader in the role model. Well, people want to 416 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 1: know what you think and how they should react, because 417 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: a lot of times they react on how you react, 418 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 1: you know, because they believe in you and they trust 419 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: in your opinion. You know, I mean no different from 420 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: you believing in your pastor you believe in in anybody 421 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: that you look at as a role model. You know, 422 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: back in the day, it used to be that way. 423 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,439 Speaker 1: People to Jim Brown, people look to lu Al Sender, 424 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 1: People look to these type of athletes because they knew 425 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,719 Speaker 1: that they were on the forefront. And you know, athletics 426 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,439 Speaker 1: has a different, you know, stance in life because you 427 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: may not like you know, I mean, I'm assuming and 428 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: and I'm not. It may not be correct, but I'm 429 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: assumed that a lot of people that are bigger than 430 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: in racist, you know, still cheer for a black athlete 431 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 1: if he's helping his football team and what I'm saying 432 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: of helping his team win, you know, he's a good whatever, 433 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But you know, sports of 434 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 1: a always been on the forefront of edgy issues in society. 435 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: You talk about, you know, uh, the first gay player, 436 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 1: you talk about, the first black player, you talked about 437 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: a lot of first was in sports, and then I 438 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: think it gave society, um gave society the the liberty 439 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: to to to accept it as well, because these strong athletes. 440 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: How can you not accept something that your hero accepts. 441 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: So if if if white players were comfortable with playing 442 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: with Jackie Robinson and standing up for him and his rights, 443 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: and it helped ease detention. You know, we all have 444 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: stereotypes about each other, but sports have always been an 445 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: equalizer because we only have one goal. And I think 446 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 1: you know, whether you're Republican or a Democrat, it still 447 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: should be one goal. It should be what's best for 448 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: the people, what's best for the country. And until we 449 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: can put our political parties aside and quit trying to 450 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: do it our way and understand that we have to 451 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 1: work with each other and and appreciate other people's points 452 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 1: of views, we can't take the next step, but we 453 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: can't act like you know, things aren't the way they are. 454 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,199 Speaker 1: But we have to. We have to talk about it. 455 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: We have to have a conversation, to open honest conversation. 456 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: And you still can believe what you believe. I still 457 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: can believe, but I believe. But we got to say, Okay, 458 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: how can we find common ground and start building from there? 459 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: How how do you, as a successful young black man, 460 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: I'm still calling you young hope getting up there. I'll 461 00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: another year before you, guys stop and a guy who 462 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: grew up from Detroit and you've lived in different areas. 463 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: They lived in Baltimore. Obviously you've spent a lot of 464 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,880 Speaker 1: time up here in the New York area as well. Uh, 465 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 1: you know, and I know this is a big topic, 466 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: but how do you view race relations in the country 467 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: right now? I think I think, you know, I think 468 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: this election proved you know what, I believe a lot 469 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: of black athletes, black people believed anyway we already knew 470 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: no black personal minority was was. I believe shocked by 471 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: the outcome of the election, and even with all the 472 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: things that were set, you know, all the racesnogynists. I 473 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 1: think this mess I just bushered that word monogynists. Um, 474 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 1: bigger than type of statements, you know, separate. I think 475 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: the politics about separating the country, UM. I think it 476 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,919 Speaker 1: just brought it to the forefront. It brought the conversation 477 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: up at least we know and now other people. I 478 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: think that's what some of the outrage is about that people. 479 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: You don't think people were aware of just how deep 480 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: it was like, you know, but you know, I don't 481 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: think people were. We're as aware of just how deep 482 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: this stuff goes. And you know, for the same thing 483 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: that happened. I believe when Barack ran, you know, people 484 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: want to change something different. I think people in rural 485 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: America wanted the same and they found a candidate that 486 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: they thought would speak to them and what was best 487 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: for them, and they voted on it. And the people 488 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: that you know came out and voted the other way 489 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: before didn't come out because they weren't inspired, you know. 490 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: So you know, listen, I'm willing go ahead and take 491 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: your shot. You know, if the people that voted for 492 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 1: Donald Trump um believe in him, and let's see, you know. 493 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: But for me, it's hard to believe that a man 494 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 1: that always had his own self interest at heart for 495 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: seventy years can change and start thinking about other people first. 496 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 1: You know, that's tough, But I hope he can because 497 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 1: I think we need it. Yeah, but I think that 498 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: I wouldn't I wouldn't hold my breath and better on it. 499 00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 1: Hopefully the rhetoric, as you said, it gets better across 500 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: or across everything, dude. And that I'm not talking social 501 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 1: platforms away people even talk about the presidency. I believe that. 502 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: And this is not a nobody watching is working together. 503 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: Nobody's working together. Like you know, just because you have 504 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: a you know, just because you're one party of me, 505 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: you can't cooperate. It's like it's almost like if one 506 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: party has a president and the other party wants that 507 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 1: party to fail. Yeah, it's like that's not the way 508 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 1: it's supposed to the way it's supposed to be. You're 509 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: always gonna work with people with different views than you 510 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 1: and like you go back, you know Ronald Reagan and 511 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: uh tip O'Neill. Tip O'Neil was the leader of the 512 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 1: Democrats at the time, but and Ronald Reagan was a 513 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: very conservative Republican who got a lot of things done 514 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: and a lot of things accomplished. But that's because they 515 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: worked together, and they worked with both of their partners. 516 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 1: You gotta do that, I mean do like, let's this 517 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: is a sports show. Let's talk about Goodell and the 518 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 1: Moore Smith. Come on, man, Like we're not getting stuff done, 519 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like we have to work together, 520 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: you know, for the good of the game, and no 521 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: different than you know, we have to work together for 522 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 1: the good of the country, you know. But the thing is, 523 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: you can't. You can't speak the way you speak during 524 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: your campaign and think that you can just talk softer 525 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: and say, oh Obama is a nice man, or say 526 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 1: oh Hillary is a pleasant woman. She fall hard, and 527 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 1: think that all it's gonna be forgiven because now, to 528 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: us or to me, that's the act during your campaign, 529 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: when the stakes were high, that was the real you. 530 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 1: So you can't come back and say, no, we're gonna 531 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 1: work together. No, it doesn't work that way, because that's 532 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: the that's the whole thing, especially we talk about minorities. 533 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: That's what they're used to seeing. They're used to people 534 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: hiding behind their racist views and then acting like they 535 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 1: get along. Then soon you're out of their face. They 536 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: talk bad about you. See, but Donald Trump did a reverse. 537 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: She talked bad about you. Now he's trying to take 538 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: it back. But now you've already exposed and show who 539 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 1: you are, what you believe in and core principles, and 540 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 1: now you're trying to take it back and you can't. 541 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: So it's just gonna be one of those things. Man 542 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: unfortunately would like the country to get together, but I 543 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: think we're more separated than ever. Oh all right, that 544 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:16,199 Speaker 1: sucks for three and seven Jets. By uh, just real quickly, 545 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: part what does the coaching staff have to do now 546 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 1: before they get so much needed time off? I remember 547 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,360 Speaker 1: when you played here on the racks, everybody always used 548 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: to talk about the coaching staff would always come together 549 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 1: during this week and self scout. So what does that mean? 550 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: This is the first time for you to take a 551 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,199 Speaker 1: deep breath, self Scott, see what we do well, what 552 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: we do wrong, and focus on what we do well 553 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: and do more of that and try and improve what 554 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: you do bad. And I think the Jets have to 555 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: take a look at how other teams view them, do 556 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: a self scouting report as if they were their own opponent, 557 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: and say, okay, if I was going against this team, 558 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,479 Speaker 1: this unit, what would I do against it? And you know, 559 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 1: now you figure out that, so you know self awareness. 560 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: Now you go back and you're trying to prove that 561 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: and throw some things out if they need to be 562 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: thrown out. Change the game planning things, change some tendencies up. 563 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: If you have some telling telling Tennessee to be it formations, 564 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: be it down to distance um places on the field, 565 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: because how do you go from being one of the 566 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: best red zone offenses to be one of the worst. 567 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's because teams have scoutled you and see 568 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: what you like to do in the red zone. So 569 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 1: now you have to adjudge. That's the thing about you know, sports, 570 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: you always have to be able to to counter, you 571 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: know what I mean, because you know, it's very few 572 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: teams that can go in and say this is what 573 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: we do, stop it. A lot of us they adjudge. 574 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: You adjusted, it's a chess match, and I think the 575 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: Jets have to really figure out what their next moves are. 576 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: Playing for pride, people always say that, And I had 577 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 1: discussion with somebody and they said, I don't know if 578 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: you want to say, you know, I don't know how 579 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: athletes feel about playing for pride. But I thought to 580 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 1: Tony Richardson about this this week in Mount Life Stadium, said, 581 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: you're always playing for pride. You always play for pride. 582 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: You want to play for the playoffs, you want to 583 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: win this ultimate goal, but you're always that's always there, right, 584 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: I've always played for the respect of by peers. Um that, 585 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: which is basically pride. So what happens is when you're 586 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: in this situation and it's going to sound weird, but 587 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: you know you stopped playing so much for the name 588 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: in front of the jersey as the name in the back, right, 589 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, you want to say, man, 590 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: when people say bart Scott, what do they think? You know? 591 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: Right now it's hard to think about Okay, the jets, right, 592 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: you want to think about yourself because now at this 593 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: point a lot of people think about self preservation. They're like, man, 594 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: you know, we had a losing season. A lot of 595 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: us are gonna get fired. So what you wanna do? 596 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 1: You want to put great film out there so that 597 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: you can survive, so that you can still have an 598 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: opportunity to play. So now you want to make sure 599 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 1: you represent yourself. You want to make sure that in 600 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: an adverse situation, you rose to the cage and you 601 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: didn't succumb to your circumstances. That now you have to 602 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: make sure that you even work even harder. So when 603 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: people say that, man, this dude is playing his but 604 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 1: he's playing hard. He has nothing to play for. Yes, 605 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: I do after play for my brand I'm paying for 606 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 1: my name on my back, the people that support me, 607 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: to people that believe in me, to say that he's 608 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 1: not a guy that quits. He's not a quitter. Anybody 609 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: can play hard and be a front runner. But if 610 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 1: you find out a lot about people when hit adversity, 611 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: how do they respond. Do they succumb to their circumstances, 612 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: they give into it, or do they rise up and 613 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 1: say I'm beyond, I'm greater than my circumstances. And we're 614 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: talking about it before. This is a great opportunity for 615 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 1: a lot of young players because you as an organization 616 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: have to find out exactly what you have here heading 617 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: into two thousand and seventeen and beyond as a young 618 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: as a young player, man, I'm like, yo, you know 619 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: I might not have a got this opportunity. Robby Anderson, 620 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: you know, Decker is healthy. You know, may not have 621 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: got this opportunity. You in the middle of a playoff run. 622 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: You might not have got that. But now you've got 623 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: an opportunity to put good film out there, not only 624 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: for the Jets, but for everybody in the NFL, so 625 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: you can continue your dream. Um, what do you think 626 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: about Petty? I know it's a small sample size and 627 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: he made his first career start. But is there anything 628 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: you can take away from that? You were at the 629 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: NFL today, uh studio, you watched our game a little 630 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 1: bit and things like that. Much you can take away 631 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: from just watching him and once start. But I thought 632 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: he was poised for the most part. I don't think 633 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: he like ran out of there, you know, took a 634 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: bunch of unnecessary sacks. Yeah. I think he just was inaccurate. 635 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 1: I think you know he said, and he saw him 636 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: do it a couple of times where he over anxious 637 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: over gripping the ball. Well, yeah, and at times maybe 638 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: he was overthinking it because he's a double clutch. Yeah, 639 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: afraid he's afraid to believe what he sees because what 640 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: happens is you have you have practice speed game speed. 641 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 1: So he's been practicing against his own team and he 642 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: sees impractice speed. Now he's in a real game, and 643 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: now he's going against people that he don't know. He 644 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: don't know the defense that they run. When you go 645 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 1: against the guys on his team. He sees his defense 646 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: all the time, so he understands what they're doing. Who 647 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: does what? But now he's going to get the team 648 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,719 Speaker 1: that he doesn't know who's who, and they're playing at 649 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: a different speed. So now his eyes and his process 650 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: has to go greater because in practice you don't get hit. 651 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 1: In this game, you know, you get hit and it 652 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: can hurt. So now that slows his process down. He 653 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 1: becomes over anxious, he throws the ball, you know, too 654 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: much juice on and not enough touch because he's speeding 655 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: up his process in his head. So now you know, 656 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: for young players, you have to try and slow the 657 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: game down. And I think for him it is you know, 658 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: for him, and there's no by week. He needs to 659 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 1: be in here. He can't take a vacation. He needs 660 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: to catch up so he can show he can represent 661 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: himself better than he did this week and show improvement 662 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: and make sure that he's gonna make the same mistakes 663 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 1: that he made last week. What would you like to 664 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 1: see from the Jets when they come back. We can 665 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: talk about it next week, but just real quickly, is 666 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,479 Speaker 1: Todd Bowls after the game said that he's not going 667 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 1: to commit to a quarterback right now, We're gonna see him. 668 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick continues to heal up. I'm gonna evaluate the 669 00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: film from Bryce. Just you maybe taking a fans perspective 670 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 1: or analysis analysis perspective on this. Would you like to 671 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: see Patty again? Uh? When the Jets come back to 672 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: play against the Patriots. I mean, I think it's safe 673 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: to say that, Ryan, if this pactually won't be your 674 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: quarterback next year, UM, so you might as well see 675 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 1: what you have, you know, um, evaluate what you have, 676 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 1: see what pieces you want to keep, who you can 677 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: build around, who's a couple of years away from being 678 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,879 Speaker 1: a major contributor. And you only do that by letting 679 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: young guys play. And you know, veterans don't like that 680 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: because they say, see that you're maybe giving up on 681 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: the season. But every season isn't going to end in 682 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 1: a winning season. Nobody has, you know, winning seasons every year. 683 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 1: But what can be done is getting an identity and 684 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: establishing the identity, establishing a level of play, a commitment 685 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: to a certain type of style, a certain type of effort. 686 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 1: And you only get that sometimes by letting young guys play, 687 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, because the reality is the 688 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,720 Speaker 1: young guy as a cheat. So if they can produce 689 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 1: at the same level somewhat close to some of the 690 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 1: veteran players, and it gives you cat flexibility to go 691 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: out and find your elite players at certain positions. You 692 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: got any surprise questions for David Harris is an interview 693 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: that we all eagerly anticipate to watch on Jet Life 694 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 1: and on New York Jets dot com. I'm just going 695 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 1: to inform him that I don't want any to answers 696 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,719 Speaker 1: to to tour answers, you know. But you know, me 697 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 1: and David has has a great relationship. We had a 698 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:29,320 Speaker 1: great planning relationship. We still maintain contact, you know after 699 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:33,359 Speaker 1: after um, you know, our planning days. So people, some 700 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: people inside the building actually said that he was more 701 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 1: chatty than you know, actually inside the medium rooms at times. 702 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: Is that true? Well, I can get it out of him, 703 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: I can. You know, I can make him like talk crap, 704 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: you may joke a little bit, you know. Him and 705 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 1: Beat we had a good room that was able to 706 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,240 Speaker 1: we were close. We're a close group, so we're able 707 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 1: to to to inspire day. But speak more because you know, 708 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: I always have something to say. So he he got 709 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 1: tired of me talking, so he started talking back. All well, 710 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 1: we're looking forward to that. I have a good week, brother, 711 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. You you get that infection cleaned up. 712 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 1: M
