1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Oh man, we lost to them. You got we did too.

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: I lost Pittsburgh, I lost the New England. I lost

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, I lost a lot of people.

4
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,559
Speaker 1: What do you do next to find who you are?

5
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: If I'm anybody that's playing lineback right now, I'm saying,

6
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,760
Speaker 1: listening here, man, Derrek Henry got to deal with me.

7
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna dedicate this whole off season to the person

8
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 1: that ended my dream. That's what we did with Brady.

9
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 1: Give the mother ball and we will score. Got dirty.

10
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: Lamar doesn't shock me. Lamar doesn't surprise me. Lamar is

11
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: doing exactly what Lamar was born to do, and that's

12
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: what we did our whold career. Put us on the

13
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 1: stage looking young. Line You're gonna do a lot of things.

14
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: You're gonna be around for a long time, but now

15
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 1: you got to make everybody around you better. It sounds

16
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: like you want to shoot up one more game with

17
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson as your quarterback. I'm telling you, I dance

18
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: with the mall one time. I got six months and

19
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna just lead them where they need to go. Anyway,

20
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: but where I'm at this is clear. I don't make

21
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: some play welcome into the lounge. You know what we

22
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: were were a little dry on guests. A couple of

23
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: weeks ago, we had to skip a day. Well, we

24
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: got the big fish today, Garrett. We reeled in, reeled

25
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: in Ray Lewis. I don't know what that sound effect was.

26
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: We got Ray, We got Ray Lewis on the pot.

27
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: Is there a bigger guest than Ray Lewis. There's not

28
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 1: a bigger guest than Ray Lewis. I'm shocked that we

29
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: have never had him on the podcast. Obviously, he's a

30
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,199
Speaker 1: very busy guy. He's difficult to, you know, to get

31
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: a lot of time with. But we were able to

32
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: do it. We were able to get the goat. It's

33
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: one of the guys who we have not had on

34
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: the podcast. It's always been on my list of who's left,

35
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: Like there's not a very long list of people who

36
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: who's left. Ray was one of the guys that we

37
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: had not talked to, and he was at the top

38
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: of the who's left list, and we get across him

39
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: off to day. Before jumping into that interview with Ray,

40

56
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: about your new podcast, Everyday Greatness dropped Friday, the first episode.

57
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: What do you want this podcast to do? I think, honestly,

58
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: I started this podcast because, UM, I think the podcast

59
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: kind of exposes the way I live. You know, um,

60
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: I've people have known my you know half of my stories,

61
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,679
Speaker 1: and you know about how I train, how I live,

62
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: how I eat, how I pray, how I you know,

63
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: all of these things, how I inspire. But I think

64
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,679
Speaker 1: it's it's a lot of times just it's very fragmented,

65
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: you know. It's like it's it's a lot of it's

66
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: over the place. And so now where I am in life, right,

67
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: I just one of the things I'm freaking proud about

68
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: right even starting the podcast is like I just had

69
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: two kids graduate this week from college. Congratulations. It's like

70
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 1: my daughter graduates from Alabama, my son graduates to day

71
00:03:54,840 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: from Maryland. I'm like yes, and and he stop, there's

72
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: tuition payments to right, listen, I just teld you it's

73
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: it's over. So so it's like it's like for me, guys,

74
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: like seriously, like every day greatness it's this thing. It's

75
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: this thing that I think a lot of us, you know,

76
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: we're missing it right or we don't know how to

77
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: to activate it right, and every day greatness isn't found

78
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: and every one of us. But if you if you

79
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: watch the way we're living, and you watch the way

80
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: you know, kids are reacting and and life is going,

81
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: and you know, if you think about the mental clayer,

82
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 1: I mean, the mental health side of life. Guys. It's

83
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 1: like we're all over the place. So so every day

84
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: Greatness says, look, this is where, this is what we're

85
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 1: gonna do. We're gonna take life one day at a time,

86
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: one step at a time. We're gonna have principles that

87
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: keep us focused on what's important right in my life individually.

88
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: And that's why their greatness. It's like it's this map.

89
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: It's this road map that says, Okay, I want to

90
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 1: be better. How do I be better? Not just okay,

91
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: you gotta be better and you gotta do this. No,

92
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: you have to meet people exactly where they are. And

93
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: Everyday Greatness is available to meet people exactly where they are,

94
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: and we walked through life together. So that's why I started.

95
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: That's awesome. Yeah, So why did you decide on a podcast?

96
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: Obviously you've done a bunch of different media, you've done TV.

97
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: But what was it about a podcast that was attractive

98
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: to you? Because I could do a podcast looking at

99
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 1: this blue water and not have to be bothered by

100
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: nobody except for us. We'll still bother you. But but um,

101
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: I think this is one vehicle, um, and then probably

102
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 1: seven or ten days um, because another one and then

103
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 1: that's another one, right that I'm doing. So I think, Um,

104
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 1: it's not necessarily it's the podcast. I think it's how

105
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 1: many different avenues that I'm gonna start to come from.

106
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 1: Me and my teams have spent a lot of time

107
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 1: really formulating the second half of life for me, and

108
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: now I'm super excited. Um, I could never be more excited,

109
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: well kind of than than my planning days. But the

110
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: second side of life is so incredible, you know, because

111
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: it's just it's just different. Right. You trained trained for me, right,

112
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: I eat for me. I think for me. You know

113
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: a lot of times when you're playing, you're always programmed.

114
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: And so now podcast gives me, um a concrete foundation

115
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: in the podcast space. Right. The next one is the

116
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: digital platforms where you get online streaming and things that

117
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 1: I kind of do already, but I'm kind of creating

118
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: my own thing, and so now the wave of the movement, right.

119
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: And so while podcast is relevant for me at this

120
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: point in time, it's because as my my company, No Excuses,

121
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: the mission of No Excuses is very simple, right, which

122
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: tells you why I need not only the podcast, but

123
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:15,119
Speaker 1: other outlets as well. Our mission is redirect gift hope

124
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: or save a billion lives? How do we do that.

125
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: We're gonna need a lot of people to do that,

126
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: and we're gonna need a lot of voices, and we're

127
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: gonna need a lot of different avenues. But as a

128
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,680
Speaker 1: as a world like, I just feel there's so much

129
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: pain and so many distractions and so many people that's

130
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: actually manipulating people instead of inspiring them. So the podcast

131
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: is another avenue that I go down that road. And

132
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: you can have that clarity, right you can join everyday

133
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: greatness and and and subscribe to it and be like,

134
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, wait a minute, But it's uncovering who

135
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: you are. It's not telling you to be Rady laws.

136
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: You know, it's not telling you to go to be

137
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: a football player. I know it's telling you to become

138
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: a better you and and and discover what greatness is.

139
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: And I believe this in all of us. Yeah, but

140
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: I think that's awesome. The only problem with the podcast,

141
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: Ray is that we can't see your hand gesters, Like

142
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: you're sitting there pounding your fists into your hand right now,

143
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 1: Can you like narrate the hand gesters part of it

144
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: for us? I can tell you how of things. You see,

145
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: I can I can take your places, you know, and

146
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 1: I can bring you back, and then I can take

147
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: the podcast and I can wrap you around, you see,

148
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: and then I can grab the piece and I can

149
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: tell you how to go forward. But you'll understand that.

150
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: But if you stay consistently down the road, every day

151
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: greatness is available. That was amazing. That was amazing. You

152
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: kind of reference this, but like just how much you're

153
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 1: enjoying you know, your post football days. You love feeling football,

154
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 1: but you're loving this stage of life. Like, what's a

155
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 1: normal day look like for you? Today? Crazy, that's what

156
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: a normal day looks like. I am hum most of

157
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: the times. Um I the moment I wake up, monster

158
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 1: short to be very quick. Um I get up at

159
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: whatever time I want to get up. That's the beautiful

160
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: part about being your own boss. Then UM, I get

161
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: up and I just spend so much time meditating and

162
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: just reading and just um clear my mind to to

163
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: to ask myself what's next, Like what is this day?

164
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 1: What am I trying to grab from this day? What

165
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: am I trying to accompass from this date? What mission?

166
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: And my arm? And then it goes into all of

167
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: my business calls um, oh my gosh, guys, you're gonna

168
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: hear a lot of this stuff coming out soon. But

169
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 1: built and started so many companies, and I'm partner with

170
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: so many people, and so then I'm in my business

171
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,199
Speaker 1: role all day. Right. One unique thing I think people

172
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 1: will really like and be able to really understand is

173
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 1: the difference guys that I changed in my football world

174
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: and my business world is when I used to get

175
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: up in the mornings, I used to always make sure

176
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: my physical was intact. Why because my physical pay my

177
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: bills right. So I would make wake up every day,

178
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: and I was taking my workhouse a prey still pread.

179
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: I was taking my workhouse right as all workouts um

180
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 1: um um designed. And then years after I retired, I

181
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: was like, you know what, you're not playing no more. So, yeah,

182
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: you're gonna always train because it's a lifestyle for me.

183
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: But that's gonna have to be on the back side

184
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: of the day, and you're gonna have to get up

185
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to bang out all of these

186
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: business needs. So I go from prayer, meditation to the

187
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: business cars all day and then right at about four

188
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: to seven, everybody and and eat and any company or

189
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: any any connection to me. UM knows immediately that I'm

190
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: busy from four to seven because I'm gonna wrap my

191
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: bike and I'm gonna i cycle. I'm guys, I got

192
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: into cycling so heavy, and it's so fun man, because

193
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: you know, all of the things I've ever done was

194
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: always you know, hit hit, hit, you know, and go

195
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: har hall hard. And this makes me go harder, but

196
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: it makes me go harder smarter. So by the time

197
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: I get through my bike ride, I come back to

198
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 1: UM just getting the phone calls and banging them out

199
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: and a lot of you know, I think what people

200
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: will really I want to know, like, on this side

201
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: of life for me, I get them a lot. I

202
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: get these calls a lot. But it's a challenging world

203
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: out here, man, Like a lot of people are going

204
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: through so much, guys. If I told you, guys, just

205
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:48,199
Speaker 1: the cause I get of cancers and dying and suicides

206
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: and oh my gosh. So I I keep myself sharp

207
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 1: everything I do as a lifestyle, um, And but I

208
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: think I found a different niche on this side of it.

209
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: You know, I found I really found how flirted with

210
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 1: greatness is really an attractive thing. It's actlutely a hobby

211
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: like to really freaking circ for a flirt um search

212
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 1: for greatness. It's a hobby like every day you have

213
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,320
Speaker 1: to read something different that inspires you or take you

214
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 1: somewhere you've never been or tried something different. Cycling teaches

215
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: me you got to come out your comfort zone. So

216
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 1: this whole world, I put another world around it. And uh,

217
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: and that's why I think. I, Like I said, you

218
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 1: can't compare the two, but this ride is one heck

219
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 1: of a ride. I'm forty five years old and I

220
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 1: just turned for the five a couple of days, a

221
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: couple of days ago, and I'm I'm me and John

222
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: was talking, Harves was talking. When I was talking to

223
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 1: the team the other day. Man, I'm in better shaping

224
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: and I was freaking I was playing. But now mentally

225
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: I'm in even better shape. Right because this this second

226
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: half of life is for me the reason why I

227
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: want to master this cycling thing, because I want to

228
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: do it until you Yeah, we're gonna see you the

229
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: toward of France or something. You know, I can identify

230
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: with this careful care for what you speak. You know,

231
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 1: during this quarantine time, obviously no gyms are open. So

232
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: we got a peloton in my house. We made the

233
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 1: purchase for a peloton, so I can identify with this. Now.

234
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna compare workouts because I don't

235
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: want to embarrass myself, but I can identify with how

236
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 1: that can be life changing for you. You know exactly

237
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. When you get to that forty

238
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: five minute mark and your legs are burning so bad

239
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 1: and the only differences outside is there's no break, Like

240
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 1: you gotta be worried about You gotta worried about potholes

241
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: and glasses, right, and then you're like, what the freaking

242
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 1: is the whole another world? I did my mom giving

243
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: me this, My mom gives me this holy oil, and

244
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: I'm riding yesterday and this car man was crazy and

245
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: I was like, my mom's hate me, Bryan bite, and

246
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: so I was like, I was like, man, I gotta

247
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:08,600
Speaker 1: start putting on my mom hold it all before what

248
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, cycling forever. It's gave me a different

249
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: perspective on life. I'm telling you guys, I have crossed

250
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 1: over to learn and cycling the way somebody will entertain

251
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: trying to be trying to be a black belt. So

252
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: I started from stretch, like simple basics. One five you know,

253
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: and you unless you understand cycling, you won't know a

254
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: one five is. Any cyclists will know what one in

255
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: five is. But one in five almost becomes your base stroke.

256
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: You know, it's your base stroke. One five, one five.

257
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. And but if you don't

258
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: learn that, you just get out there and you just right.

259
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 1: And so man, I am with this cycling. I'm going

260
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: crazy with it. I just did I just did a

261
00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: hundred miles Saturday, um, and then I think we're looking

286
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: it'll be fun. I really want to get in touch

287
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: with all right. Yeah, so you talked about talking to

288
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: Harves because you talked to the team recently. Uh, you know,

289
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: it's interesting. We actually did a podcast with Pronomic Fee

290
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: yesterday who you played with? Who knows who you know well?

291
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: But Pronell came away from that meeting like fired up.

292
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 1: He said that you kind of changed his perspective on

293
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: some things. So what did you share with the team

294
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: during your time with him this week that had even

295
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: a veteran like pronomic fee so fired up? You you

296
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: have to I shared a very direct message to them, um,

297
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 1: because I'm with this mental health um um summit that

298
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: I'm kind of a part of, and so I've been

299
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 1: in these thoughts and I'm saying to myself, like, I

300
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: don't know if we ever thought about most athletes deal

301
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: with these things every day, you know, these mental issues.

302
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: And so what I gave the team was you got

303
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 1: to figure out the difference of mental clarity and mental boredom, right,

304
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 1: because they run hand in hand. And but had what

305
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 1: happens when you mentally bored if you never chase your greatness,

306
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: you don't even know what it looks like, right, Like

307
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: like it's a it's a it's actually a it's not

308
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: a good thing, because that's why kids try so many things,

309
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: right because if they're bored mentally. Right, Like, when we

310
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: were growing up, something that was interesting was we didn't

311
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,479
Speaker 1: have a lot to entertain us, right. We didn't have

312
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: cell phones, we didn't have computers, we didn't have all

313
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: those things. So you know, what happened. We had to

314
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: become mentally engaged, so figuring out how to make it

315
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 1: out of life and how to think differently. Even though

316
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: you're poor, even though you're broke, even though you don't

317
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: have nothing, how can you come out of this? And

318
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: what happens now is the guys are so distracted. They're

319
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 1: so distracted and there's so many things in front of

320
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 1: them that before they know it, seriously, before they know it,

321
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,239
Speaker 1: they have went through five years of their career and

322
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: never maximized. Like the only reason I stayed in Baltimore

323
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: seventeen years because I was consistent on ridding myself of

324
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 1: my distractions. I was consistent and and and and in

325
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,880
Speaker 1: the little things and and and and but but it's

326
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 1: not little things as a player, it's the little things

327
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: as a man. How do you every day get up

328
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 1: to be a better man than I was yesterday? And

329
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: you've got to meet yourself exactly where you are. But guys,

330
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 1: we're not doing this. And the more the same thing

331
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 1: I shared with the team, Imagine how many of you

332
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: don't understand that battle for your entire life. That's why

333
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: people I want you to follow them on social media

334
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 1: and pay attention to all of that. Why, it's because

335
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,679
Speaker 1: they want you board. Do you know how bored you

336
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: gotta be to go down social media? Just do this

337
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: all day you're free. You're gotta be bored to death.

338
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 1: So you got to keep the mind active. The mind

339
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: is an active thing, man. And that's what I think,

340
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of us were getting away from, right,

341
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: is to actually making the mind work again. And so

342
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: that that's kind of what I was trying to tell them, Like,

343
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: you know, even when you lose games, right, like a

344
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 1: game as big as you know, the Tennessee game was right,

345
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 1: and yeah, you feel heartbroken and there's things like that,

346
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,199
Speaker 1: but that's the greatest lesson of life. What do you

347
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: do next? Defines who you are? It ain't what you,

348
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 1: ain't what you Oh man, we lost to them, Yeah

349
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 1: we did too. I lost Pittsburgh, I lost the New England,

350
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 1: I lost you know what I'm saying. I lost to

351
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 1: a lot of people. But when I got it. When

352
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 1: I got it is when all of the pieces are

353
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 1: put together. And that's how you have to put together

354
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: a man, right. And and that's why even even on

355
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 1: the podcast every day greatness like like there there will

356
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: be weeks coming. That's already built now. But where our

357
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 1: piece men back together to where they have a check

358
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,880
Speaker 1: in every day with what a man do this are

359
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 1: because because we see we're forgetting duties right, running fast

360
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: and jump high. It's what's relevant. But it's really not.

361
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 1: It's your integrity, it's your character. It's a respect, and

362
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 1: it's the loyalty and the commitment that you have towards something.

363
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 1: And that's why so many players go through this revolving

364
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,879
Speaker 1: door because they have yet to commit to themselves. And

365
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: that's what I wanted to share with them. If you

366
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 1: never figure out how to commit to yourself, guys, you

367
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: your teammates, I never know who you are because you

368
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 1: will be always searching for that person. So yeah, so

369
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,640
Speaker 1: I want a lot of different places, but I mean

370
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: it was a large group of guys, and I wanted

371
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 1: to really go a lot of places. So it homed

372
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: in on the ones that really grabbed it. And they

373
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,119
Speaker 1: will see life differently the moment you absorb it. I

374
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: mean you you have to unless you just somebody that

375
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: just want to live a crazy life. Yeah, you know.

376
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 1: It honestly reminds me a lot of your locker room speech.

377
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: In twleven after the a f C Championship lost in

378
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: New England, like just some of the same lessons about hey,

379
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 1: what what life is about? And it's bigger than this, right?

380
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: I mean, do you think after what the Ravens went

381
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: through last year that they were kind of like that team,

382
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: you know, a great team eliminated in heartbreaking fashion. And

383
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 1: what would you say, is is the key? You know?

384
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: Is it kind of what you're talking about to getting

385
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,639
Speaker 1: over that help and getting beyond a loss like that. Yeah,

386
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,160
Speaker 1: but let me tell you what the key is, right,

387
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 1: The key is you gotta be okay with no one

388
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: that you're in a business that you won't win every game.

389
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 1: That's factual. That's that's the reality of it, right, But

390
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 1: the foundation of it is pick yourself up and let's

391
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 1: go back to work. What it's gonna be one champion.

392
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,679
Speaker 1: It's gonna be one person crown at the end of

393
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 1: this year. It's all it always is, right, It's always

394
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 1: one crown champion in this sport, in any sport. And

395
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: when the show yea is Joe yea, I should tell

396
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 1: Stephen shine all the time. That's what he actually wrote

397
00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: in My My m V P read um was God,

398
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: don't make no mistakes none. And when you know that,

399
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: when you know that, when I when I knew that,

400
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 1: when when when I saw you know whether it was

401
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 1: a mispast misfield goal, mistackled by me in the second quarter,

402
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 1: I no matter what it is, everything did not add

403
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: up for us to win in two thousand and eleven.

404
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 1: And I got then, I was like, oh man, this

405
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 1: is crazy. And I'm watching you know, people going crazy,

406
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: you know, because we're we lost a big, big game.

407
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:37,360
Speaker 1: And I sat there, man, I said wow. And immediately, man,

408
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: my perspective was like, Okay, we need a real word,

409
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 1: We need a real word. And heard was we ran

410
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 1: our race. Stop trying to force something that ain't yours.

411
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: Oh I should have won that. No, you shouldn't. What

412
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 1: happened was supposed to have Right now, Is there things

413
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: along the way that you can do? Absolutely, Mr Tackle,

414
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,880
Speaker 1: Mr Field ago this cake. Right, it's the simple things.

415
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 1: And that's what you have to go back to work

416
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 1: and you have a piece together to make sure it

417
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 1: don't happen again. Right. That's the same thing with Tennessee.

418
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: If if I'm if I'm getting to Tennessee again, I'm

419
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: telling myself in the off season right now. If I'm

420
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: anybody that's playing linebacker right now, I'm saying, listen here, man,

421
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: Derek Henry got to deal with me that that's a

422
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: personal thing for me. I don't like the way it

423
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 1: went down, and that's the way it's gonna. I gotta

424
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: see him. So this whole off season, I'm gonna dedicate

425
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 1: this whole off season to the person that ended my dreams.

426
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: That's that's what we did with Brady, right. Prepare ourself

427
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: enough to get me back to that one position and

428
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: lock that lock that damn dope and throw away the

429
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: key and getting out of here this time and get

430
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,679
Speaker 1: and and that's it, man. And so it's the process.

431
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: It's the process of it. But it's the process of

432
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: never being comfortable with losing. So if you're never comfortable

433
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 1: with losing, then always compete at everything. And that's everything

434
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 1: that's at practice, that's what yourself. Um, it's everything, man.

435
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: So yeah, what do you think of of what Lamar

436
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: Jackson has been able to do the last two years.

437
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what we're like when I see the

438
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 1: reaction that he gets from fans. I have not seen

439
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,199
Speaker 1: that since you were on the team. Like when I

440
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 1: when I see him at training camp and he's signing autographs,

441
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: he gets swarmed in in a similar way to the

442
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 1: way you did. And there's been popular players since you,

443
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: but it's just a different level. You're on a different

444
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: level and he now is on a different level. Do

445
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 1: you see that? And what do you think of what

446
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: he's been able to do? Let me, let me, let

447
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: me just I won't say it because you know, people

448
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: always try to take stuff and run with it. But

449
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 1: the facts is, it's the facts, man, Like in Baltimore

450
00:25:55,960 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 1: history and the histories is nineteen nine and six. The

451
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 1: one consistent thing, right that we've never had like a

452
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,959
Speaker 1: paid manner, like a Tom Brady, you know, like like

453
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,120
Speaker 1: we've never just had that one guy at the quarterback position.

454
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,119
Speaker 1: You know, we just didn't we just for whatever reason,

455
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,880
Speaker 1: you know, and maybe that favored me a little bit,

456
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 1: you know, not that I wanted it to be that way,

457
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 1: but Burnett, you know. But but listen, I'm telling you something, right,

458
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 1: I never forget this is what what Lamar reminds me

459
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 1: so much of, honest to God, right, because we've we're

460
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,120
Speaker 1: through this shoot, we're going through this, this wave again. Right,

461
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: so where we have last time we saw super Bows

462
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 1: two thousand twelve, right, so we eight years from seven

463
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,680
Speaker 1: eight years, right, But we got that taste, we got

464
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: to tell But when we came here in Baltimore, there

465
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: was no taste. There was just you know, okay, yeah,

466
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: you know whatever. And there was this energy that people

467
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 1: started to be like, wait a minute, that energy is

468
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: a little bit different, right, and that was my energy then, right,

469
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 1: and now fast forward, right, you're like watching Lamar's energy

470
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: and I'm saying, oh my gosh, like I'm just once again,

471
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 1: I'm excited as a Baltimore fan that we have somebody

472
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: at the quarterback. Was this that can go do that?

473
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: You know what, man, give give, give the mother ball

474
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: and we will score. God durn it, We're gonna We're

475
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:43,959
Speaker 1: gonna find a way, you know what I'm saying. It's

476
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 1: like one of those those those those really special players

477
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 1: that they come around like Lamar, even at Louisville. Right,

478
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 1: Lamar doesn't shock me, Lamar doesn't surprise me. Lamar is

479
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 1: doing exactly what Lamar was going to do. And that's

480
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 1: what we did our whole career. Put us on the stage.

481
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 1: What we do behind the scenes is which you would

482
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: never appreciate because you can't because of the way it's built.

483
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:11,840
Speaker 1: That kid has what you call it. It's and and

484
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 1: and it's not given by somebody that wants to rate

485
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 1: you and say that you can't be a quarterback and

486
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 1: you can't be this. It's bottom line is I am considered,

487
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: and you can. From childhood all the way up, there's

488
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 1: nobody better than Lamar Jackson with just a ball in

489
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: his hand and what he can do with it. It

490
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:33,439
Speaker 1: sounds to me like you want it. It sounds like

491
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 1: you want to suit up one more game with Lamar

492
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: Jackson as your quarterback. I tell you, I mean, if

493
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 1: they wanted me to press, I would have to have that.

494
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: I would have to take my um gold jackets to

495
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: the press, to the cleaners, have them press, sent them back,

496
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 1: tell them to hold him for a minute. And I'm

497
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: telling you, I dance with La Mall one time. I

498
00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: got I got months, you know, I got six months

499
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: in I almost just lead them where they need to

500
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 1: go any way. But when I'm at physically, I'm I'm

501
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: gonna make some play. But what to play with somebody

502
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 1: like him? It's what I always remember row, which you

503
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:15,680
Speaker 1: used to say this. He's always saying. Always, he's always saying,

504
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: and ain't nothing like playing with that ship, Like you

Speaker 1: and watch this magician go to work. Man. So he's

512
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: been one of my favorites since college though. Um, you know,

513
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 1: I love the stories where people say what you can't do?

514
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 1: You know, I don't heard that before. So so I

515
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 1: became a fan of me is immediately when I used

516
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: to get people will say condens say, oh, that won't

517
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: happen in the next football thing. I was like, what

518
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 1: what does that mean? You hear people say certain things,

519
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: You're like, you made your mouth say that, your mouth

520
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 1: actually said that? And uh And Lamar, man, he's gonna

521
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: give us a lot of a lot of amazing years

522
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: of exciting championship football in Baltimore. So I'm excited, man. Yeah,

523
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: if I wonder if Lamar we're on this call right now.

524
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 1: What advice would you give him about really the only

525
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: you know, tough times so far in his NFL career,

526
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 1: and that's getting over the playoff hump and starting going

527
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: two in the playoffs. What would you say to Lamar

528
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: about that? Yeah, so I will give him the same

529
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 1: advice that I gave myself to become a champion. It's

530
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 1: not about you. It's about you, Sharpen, and all of

531
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 1: the twos around you, so that you're all thinking on

532
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 1: one accord. M. That's why champions they don't hesitate when

533
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 1: they walk on the battlefield, certain battles. It ain't even

534
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: about the school board. It's the battle. It's it's understanding

535
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 1: that everything works together. It's me telling him, like looking

536
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,479
Speaker 1: young lyon, you're gonna do a lot of things. You're

537
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 1: gonna be around for a long time. But now you

538
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: got to make everybody around you better. How you must

539
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 1: challenge them to be better? Athletically? Come on, man, the

540
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: draft Alan was just crazy, just beautiful, just athletically. Now,

541
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 1: how many of those young guys, if you're Lamar Jackson,

542
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: can you get to buy in fully to know the playbook?

543
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 1: In an out you know, why I learned the whole playbook,

544
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: the entire playbook, It's because I wanted to make sure

545
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: nobody on my team did not know their signed it.

546
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: That's that's when you take your your your greatness to

547
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 1: another level. Right. I never had that. I never had y'all.

548
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 1: You guys have been around me long enough and anybody

549
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 1: who played with me. I ain't never cursed nobody out. Yeah,

550
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 1: I never disrespect nobody. I challenged them. I challenged them

551
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 1: and at their level. I didn't say complete. I didn't

552
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: say come plays them at their level and for the

553
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: Ravens to become that team, because look, it is what

554
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 1: it is. And if you're in the a f C

555
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 1: for the next ten fifteen years, you got two people

556
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 1: alone that it doesn't and neither one on them name

557
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: is LJ and that's the Shaun Watson and Pat Mams.

558
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: So we got a trio that's gonna be battling for

559
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: that number one for a very long time. And I'm

560
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: not just scared to nobody else, but I'm just saying,

561
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: at that position, the dynamic of former m v P,

562
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: no m v P, not super Boy m VP. Right,

563
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 1: And that's and those kids, oh my gosh, those three alone.

564
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: So we have we have to get better, man all

565
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: the way across the board to finish it next time.

566
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,880
Speaker 1: And it's the same things that we went through, whether

567
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: it was nine and didn't make the playoffs, or whether

568
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 1: it was two thousand and eleven and kick away, catch

569
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: away to tackle away right, maybe two thousand nine eight

570
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh, you know, go all the way back to Indianapolis,

571
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 1: Payton coming to me. I still every time I've seen him,

572
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: I want to just punch him in his gut journey

573
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 1: as closest friends as we are, like man, like, you're

574
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: not supposed to come to my city and we give

575
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:10,879
Speaker 1: up five field goals and lose. So so there are

576
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 1: things that you know you want to make sure that

577
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 1: you get over. And how do you do that? You

578
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: make everybody around you better. You're giving me goose bumps,

579
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 1: like when you're even when you're pretending to talk to

580
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, your voice changes and you go right back

581
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 1: to it. Man, it's like you're in the middle of

582
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: that huddle again. Like it gives me goose bumps. Listen, now,

583
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 1: it's a lifestyle, it's acting class. This this is every

584
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: day you wake up and get it every day. This

585
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,920
Speaker 1: is not every other day. This is every day. I

586
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:51,359
Speaker 1: just did uh second episode with UH that I did

587
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 1: on my podcast with with Eddie George. Oh wow, yeah,

588
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 1: and yes, exactly why everybody needs to listen to that

589
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 1: right now? Yeah yeah, and and so here be all

590
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 1: we I mean as were coming up. But the whole thing, man,

591
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 1: is like sometimes and this is kind of what my

592
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 1: theme was, you know, like leadership follows leaders you know,

593
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 1: and you got to really meditate on that to understand

594
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:21,799
Speaker 1: why leadership follows leaders because whatever sees you plant it

595
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: dictates who and what you follow, you know, it dictates

596
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: what you pay attention to. And I paid attention to

597
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 1: enjoy so much that I realized that my physical side

598
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: of life and my mental side of life needed to change,

599
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 1: you know, like I had to. I had to physically,

600
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: I had to physically become stronger. I had to mentally

601
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: become way smarter than I would ever imagined to deal

602
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 1: with an animal like that. And six man, six four

603
00:35:54,000 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: two hundred and forty five pounds. Man, that's exactly what

604
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: you're talking about, isn't it isn't Listen, I'm telling you

605
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: I lived it. I lived it. Well, I know what's

606
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:11,200

662
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 1: you must carry ten to twelve percent body fat to

663
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,799

668
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,040
