I want to know where this came from. 64 00:03:58,806 --> 00:04:00,846 Speaker 1: But nobody knows where they came from. They just are 65 00:04:00,926 --> 00:04:04,406 Speaker 1: and you don't question it, you just do it. But see, 66 00:04:04,446 --> 00:04:08,446 Speaker 1: like all so, my parents very much from a cultural 67 00:04:08,726 --> 00:04:14,886 Speaker 1: generational standpoint of feeling like they can't throw anything away. 68 00:04:15,086 --> 00:04:19,806 Speaker 1: They can't throw food away. So we would have tupperware 69 00:04:20,246 --> 00:04:23,286 Speaker 1: of everything. If it's like one slice of tomato in 70 00:04:23,406 --> 00:04:28,606 Speaker 1: one and then like one like a piece of lettuce 71 00:04:28,726 --> 00:04:32,366 Speaker 1: and another one and you know, all like the breads 72 00:04:32,806 --> 00:04:36,646 Speaker 1: you could possibly want, you know, in different spots.

So it was like that was homework, 125 00:07:30,926 --> 00:07:33,006 Speaker 1: like I had to really like practice and work at that, 126 00:07:33,566 --> 00:07:36,486 Speaker 1: but I just, you know, I just dove in and 127 00:07:36,526 --> 00:07:37,846 Speaker 1: I said, you know what, let me try it.

It was like I found the thing 132 00:07:49,166 --> 00:07:51,766 Speaker 1: that I actually loved more if you know this, just 133 00:07:51,806 --> 00:07:54,766 Speaker 1: as much, if not more than playing ball, you know. 134 00:07:54,966 --> 00:07:57,646 Speaker 1: And it was almost like I started to cultivate my 135 00:07:57,686 --> 00:08:01,006 Speaker 1: own identity apart from what my family thought I should 136 00:08:01,046 --> 00:08:02,486 Speaker 1: do all. You know. Even my brother said to me 137 00:08:02,526 --> 00:08:03,606 Speaker 1: one time, he was like, yeah, it was hard for 138 00:08:03,646 --> 00:08:05,886 Speaker 1: me when you quit, you know, because you don't even 139 00:08:05,926 --> 00:08:07,686 Speaker 1: know that side of it. He told me. He was like, 140 00:08:07,766 --> 00:08:09,206 Speaker 1: it was hard for me when you quit because I 141 00:08:09,206 --> 00:08:11,566 Speaker 1: really wanted you to keep going, yam, you know, and 142 00:08:11,606 --> 00:08:13,846 Speaker 1: I was, you know, and and it's it's sometimes somebody 143 00:08:13,846 --> 00:08:16,326 Speaker 1: else's dream for you was not you know what I'm saying. 144 00:08:16,366 --> 00:08:19,286 Speaker 1: But yeah, sports is I still that mentality like that 145 00:08:19,286 --> 00:08:21,286 Speaker 1: that doesn't leave, that doesn't leave you, like you know 146 00:08:21,286 --> 00:08:23,366 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And like I was playing in the 147 00:08:23,446 --> 00:08:25,886 Speaker 1: celebrity softball game recently, and I was like, no, we're 148 00:08:25,926 --> 00:08:30,566 Speaker 1: gonna win. Right. When did you realize that you could 149 00:08:30,606 --> 00:08:35,366 Speaker 1: actually be bilingual and do this and do it effectively 150 00:08:35,486 --> 00:08:43,166 Speaker 1: in both languages. So it started with what is an 151 00:08:43,166 --> 00:08:46,686 Speaker 1: affiliate of Univision, and I actually have the news director 152 00:08:46,766 --> 00:08:48,286 Speaker 1: walk in and asked me what I was going to 153 00:08:48,326 --> 00:08:50,286 Speaker 1: do with my life, and at that time, I was 154 00:08:50,326 --> 00:08:53,766 Speaker 1: only I just come back from Europe. I was away 155 00:08:54,246 --> 00:08:58,886 Speaker 1: doing you know, young young people thing and yes, and 156 00:08:58,926 --> 00:09:01,326 Speaker 1: I came back and again, you know, my whole dream 157 00:09:01,446 --> 00:09:04,486 Speaker 1: was to become a professional soccer player, and has any 158 00:09:04,526 --> 00:09:07,166 Speaker 1: good athlete. I hurt my ankle and I was done 159 00:09:07,926 --> 00:09:11,326 Speaker 1: so and you know, an injury. So he actually gave 160 00:09:11,326 --> 00:09:13,326 Speaker 1: me my first opportunity to get in front of the 161 00:09:13,326 --> 00:09:17,046 Speaker 1: camera and talk sports. And when I got a taste 162 00:09:17,046 --> 00:09:19,886 Speaker 1: for it, it was like, okay, wait, I can do this. 163 00:09:20,566 --> 00:09:23,326 Speaker 1: But I also saw an opportunity to do it for 164 00:09:23,406 --> 00:09:26,526 Speaker 1: my Latino community and do it right. What do I 165 00:09:26,566 --> 00:09:29,206 Speaker 1: mean by right is that I grew up watching a 166 00:09:29,246 --> 00:09:33,846 Speaker 1: lot of sports in in Spanish and the news in Spanish, 167 00:09:33,886 --> 00:09:36,886 Speaker 1: and I would see the woman be the trophies and 168 00:09:37,326 --> 00:09:39,726 Speaker 1: it would bother me because I'd like, I don't want 169 00:09:39,766 --> 00:09:41,606 Speaker 1: to do that. I don't want to wear a bikini 170 00:09:41,686 --> 00:09:44,166 Speaker 1: and show up in front of a camera and talk sports, 171 00:09:44,686 --> 00:09:46,366 Speaker 1: Like why do I have to wear a bikini to 172 00:09:46,526 --> 00:09:50,806 Speaker 1: talk sports? So at that moment, it was like, Okay, 173 00:09:50,926 --> 00:09:53,326 Speaker 1: I want to talk sports, but I don't want to 174 00:09:53,366 --> 00:09:56,166 Speaker 1: wear a bikini to do it, Like that's that's not 175 00:09:56,206 --> 00:09:59,366 Speaker 1: what I want. By the way, that's an actual literal example, 176 00:09:59,446 --> 00:10:05,286 Speaker 1: Like you're not exaggerating, right It like cacature especially growing. Yeah, 177 00:10:06,326 --> 00:10:09,046 Speaker 1: woman came you know in the Latino community. Woman came 178 00:10:09,086 --> 00:10:13,206 Speaker 1: into talking sports as a trophy, like you know, it 179 00:10:13,286 --> 00:10:15,606 Speaker 1: was just like you would see this thing and it 180 00:10:15,686 --> 00:10:18,006 Speaker 1: was like I remember a couple of women that have 181 00:10:18,126 --> 00:10:20,886 Speaker 1: created a career for them, but when they first started 182 00:10:21,246 --> 00:10:23,966 Speaker 1: and when they were doing the World Cup, it was 183 00:10:24,966 --> 00:10:27,646 Speaker 1: they were talking about the best abs and the best 184 00:10:27,726 --> 00:10:31,606 Speaker 1: legs and they were wearing miniskirts and crop tops, and 185 00:10:31,686 --> 00:10:34,846 Speaker 1: I was like, that's that's not what I want to do. 186 00:10:35,246 --> 00:10:37,486 Speaker 1: I want to talk about the actual game if I 187 00:10:37,526 --> 00:10:40,766 Speaker 1: want to do this. So that's where I started, and 188 00:10:40,766 --> 00:10:42,966 Speaker 1: I said, Okay, I'm going to go to Mexico because 189 00:10:43,326 --> 00:10:45,246 Speaker 1: if at that time I had one niece. Now I 190 00:10:45,286 --> 00:10:47,086 Speaker 1: have two, but I said, you know, when my niece 191 00:10:47,086 --> 00:10:48,926 Speaker 1: grows up, I don't want her to say, hey, yeah, 192 00:10:48,966 --> 00:10:50,526 Speaker 1: how'd you get into this and be like, well, my 193 00:10:50,526 --> 00:10:53,966 Speaker 1: pretty face? And I knew sports at that time. I 194 00:10:53,966 --> 00:10:56,806 Speaker 1: only had a degree in business administration. So so I'm 195 00:10:56,806 --> 00:10:59,926 Speaker 1: going to go to Mexico. I'm going to perfect my Spanish. 196 00:11:00,006 --> 00:11:04,326 Speaker 1: I'm going to you know, become a woman in sports, 197 00:11:04,326 --> 00:11:07,246 Speaker 1: and I'm going to talk sports and I'm going to 198 00:11:07,286 --> 00:11:09,246 Speaker 1: not have to do it in a bikini. That was 199 00:11:09,446 --> 00:11:12,726 Speaker 1: that was my goal. I was. And so I went 200 00:11:12,766 --> 00:11:16,126 Speaker 1: to Mexico and I started. I did a sports a 201 00:11:16,206 --> 00:11:23,206 Speaker 1: journalism and equivalence with sports journalism masters in Mexico, and 202 00:11:23,246 --> 00:11:26,686 Speaker 1: they realized in that moment that American football was a 203 00:11:26,686 --> 00:11:30,766 Speaker 1: big part of the Mexican culture, which was something that 204 00:11:30,846 --> 00:11:34,446 Speaker 1: I did not know because originally I was going to 205 00:11:34,526 --> 00:11:37,486 Speaker 1: go and talk about soccer. Remember how we talked about 206 00:11:37,486 --> 00:11:41,246 Speaker 1: soccer got me started. Soccer was right, I thought. But 207 00:11:41,286 --> 00:11:42,766 Speaker 1: then I get to Mexico and I was like, oh 208 00:11:42,766 --> 00:11:45,526 Speaker 1: my gosh, they love football. They do, and they know 209 00:11:45,646 --> 00:11:52,006 Speaker 1: they love it, yes, and they bring this extra passion 210 00:11:52,166 --> 00:11:55,206 Speaker 1: and they're so excitent and there's this whole tradition of 211 00:11:55,246 --> 00:11:59,006 Speaker 1: college football, and it was like, oh my goodness. So 212 00:11:59,086 --> 00:12:01,246 Speaker 1: one thing led to another. I had the opportunity to 213 00:12:01,286 --> 00:12:06,446 Speaker 1: work with Maximo Avance Cover Football College um Cover, which 214 00:12:06,486 --> 00:12:10,046 Speaker 1: is one of the longest, historical, most recognized football programs 215 00:12:10,086 --> 00:12:13,886 Speaker 1: in Mexico, and I started asking questions like how long 216 00:12:13,966 --> 00:12:17,046 Speaker 1: is football? Went around? And wait, you watch NFL? And 217 00:12:17,086 --> 00:12:20,966 Speaker 1: how do you watch the NFL? And so then it 218 00:12:21,126 --> 00:12:23,526 Speaker 1: just one thing again led to the other. It just 219 00:12:23,606 --> 00:12:25,886 Speaker 1: kind of it was like this puzzle that just kept building, 220 00:12:25,886 --> 00:12:31,766 Speaker 1: building building, and I'm still putting the pieces together. Girl. 221 00:12:31,846 --> 00:12:35,726 Speaker 1: The picture is coming along very, very beautifully. And what 222 00:12:35,766 --> 00:12:38,646 Speaker 1: I love about it is that we're you're still creating 223 00:12:38,686 --> 00:12:42,806 Speaker 1: the puzzle pieces right, like they weren't predetermined new things 224 00:12:42,806 --> 00:12:45,446 Speaker 1: like TNF for example, like your position with the Niners, 225 00:12:45,526 --> 00:12:48,446 Speaker 1: like they're they're creating a tapestry that now other women 226 00:12:49,006 --> 00:12:53,406 Speaker 1: will be able to follow and then add their own 227 00:12:53,446 --> 00:12:56,686 Speaker 1: puzzle pieces too, and it's been such a crazy journey. 228 00:12:56,806 --> 00:12:59,166 Speaker 1: I love that you mentioned, you know, sort of like 229 00:12:59,206 --> 00:13:01,606 Speaker 1: the trope that it was early on for women to 230 00:13:01,646 --> 00:13:04,206 Speaker 1: be in sports and Spanish language specifically, because I think 231 00:13:04,246 --> 00:13:07,846 Speaker 1: on the opposite side of it, in the us. It's 232 00:13:07,886 --> 00:13:12,006 Speaker 1: almost an overcorrection, right, So it's like a double edged 233 00:13:12,006 --> 00:13:15,886 Speaker 1: sword where my experience was the opposite, where they were like, 234 00:13:15,966 --> 00:13:18,526 Speaker 1: you need to strip away all of your femininity in 235 00:13:18,686 --> 00:13:22,126 Speaker 1: order to be considered credible, and it's like, okay, well, look, 236 00:13:22,566 --> 00:13:25,366 Speaker 1: can we as women just exists as who we are 237 00:13:25,806 --> 00:13:27,886 Speaker 1: authentically with what we bring to the table and just 238 00:13:27,926 --> 00:13:31,046 Speaker 1: bring our expertise in the field and our talent in 239 00:13:31,086 --> 00:13:34,566 Speaker 1: the field. Well that without having to fit into this 240 00:13:34,966 --> 00:13:38,046 Speaker 1: literal box that everybody tries to shove us in. So 241 00:13:38,446 --> 00:13:42,046 Speaker 1: it's I think we're still navigating those waters and the 242 00:13:42,166 --> 00:13:45,686 Speaker 1: industry is still trying to catch up to what it 243 00:13:45,766 --> 00:13:49,726 Speaker 1: is that women really bring to the table. But it's 244 00:13:49,766 --> 00:13:51,206 Speaker 1: going to be a journey I think for the rest 245 00:13:51,246 --> 00:13:53,006 Speaker 1: of our career certainly. I just hope that for your 246 00:13:53,086 --> 00:13:57,406 Speaker 1: nieces and for mine, eventually everything can land on an 247 00:13:57,446 --> 00:14:01,446 Speaker 1: even playing field. You've done a lot of things, and 248 00:14:01,766 --> 00:14:04,606 Speaker 1: for me, one of those things is heat and you 249 00:14:04,846 --> 00:14:10,086 Speaker 1: I've said before, You've said this before that that movie 250 00:14:10,366 --> 00:14:14,886 Speaker 1: was a career changer, and that scene with de Niro, 251 00:14:15,326 --> 00:14:19,366 Speaker 1: the death scene in particular, was one that really put 252 00:14:19,446 --> 00:14:22,286 Speaker 1: you on the map. So rather than asking you about 253 00:14:22,526 --> 00:14:25,126 Speaker 1: what's it like to work with de Niro? What's it 254 00:14:25,206 --> 00:14:28,366 Speaker 1: like to do that? I thought that you and I 255 00:14:28,406 --> 00:14:32,806 Speaker 1: could recreate it, Danny. I will play I will play 256 00:14:32,966 --> 00:14:36,446 Speaker 1: Neil McCauley, and you will play Trey Hoo. All right, Danny, 257 00:14:36,486 --> 00:14:38,246 Speaker 1: So here you go.

UM, great 363 00:22:48,046 --> 00:22:50,006 Speaker 1: great addition in New York. I mean, I think he's 364 00:22:50,046 --> 00:22:52,926 Speaker 1: he has a long future ahead of him.

I 372 00:23:14,206 --> 00:23:17,406 Speaker 1: mean he was essentially the best quarterback in the league. 373 00:23:17,446 --> 00:23:20,606 Speaker 1: So that's good. Um, this is a category for you. 374 00:23:20,686 --> 00:23:23,686 Speaker 1: This next one that is near in dear to your heart. 375 00:23:24,646 --> 00:23:29,286 Speaker 1: This next category is Platanel Power of the Season.

It's so cute. I mean, yeah, I think 384 00:24:11,006 --> 00:24:14,326 Speaker 1: it had to be Patrick Mahomes. He won League MVP, 385 00:24:14,606 --> 00:24:18,566 Speaker 1: Super Bowl MVP. Um bomb ankle. I don't know her, 386 00:24:19,686 --> 00:24:22,606 Speaker 1: didn't didn't seem to be a problem at all. Um. 387 00:24:23,246 --> 00:24:26,646 Speaker 1: The man just keeps keeps setting us up, knocking him down. 388 00:24:27,206 --> 00:24:29,726 Speaker 1: He's earned it. He did, he did, and you know that. 389 00:24:29,806 --> 00:24:34,086 Speaker 1: My my pick for NFL MVP was Jalen Hurts because 390 00:24:34,086 --> 00:24:35,686 Speaker 1: of the way that he played. But it'd be a 391 00:24:35,686 --> 00:24:38,646 Speaker 1: little ridiculous for me, not for us not to pick 392 00:24:38,686 --> 00:24:42,486 Speaker 1: the guy who won the Lombardi Trophy, Jalen. I see 393 00:24:42,486 --> 00:24:46,246 Speaker 1: you though unbelievable in that Super Bowl appearance. I know 394 00:24:46,246 --> 00:24:49,086 Speaker 1: there's no moral victories, but man, am I excited for 395 00:24:49,166 --> 00:24:51,166 Speaker 1: what's to come for Jalen and for the rest of 396 00:24:51,206 --> 00:24:55,086 Speaker 1: that team. But Patrick Mahomes have a have an offseason. Man, 397 00:24:55,166 --> 00:24:58,406 Speaker 1: You've you've earned it. He'll up take all of your trophies. 398 00:24:58,446 --> 00:25:00,526 Speaker 1: He's gonna need a bigger trophy case at this point. 399 00:25:00,926 --> 00:25:04,246 Speaker 1: Um to see and those are those are are but 400 00:25:04,326 --> 00:25:08,646 Speaker 1: emuels and huddle for the twenty twenty two twenty twenty 401 00:25:08,726 --> 00:25:14,286 Speaker 1: three season. We gotta get a trophy next season. Yes, 402 00:25:14,486 --> 00:25:21,806 Speaker 1: oh my god, I'm now we know what it would 403 00:25:21,806 --> 00:25:26,046 Speaker 1: sound like a Patrick Mahome spoke Spanish. Amazing. Oh my god, 404 00:25:26,046 --> 00:25:27,766 Speaker 1: it's too good. We gotta get him to do that. Man, 405 00:25:27,806 --> 00:25:29,406 Speaker 1: I had him at on Total Access. I should have 406 00:25:29,446 --> 00:25:30,926 Speaker 1: asked him. I was under pressure. We only had a 407 00:25:30,926 --> 00:25:35,406 Speaker 1: few minutes with him. But next time, for sure, Um, 408 00:25:35,486 --> 00:25:38,446 Speaker 1: let's close this out well because I know that the 409 00:25:39,086 --> 00:25:41,566 Speaker 1: season is over, but not for us. There's a lot 410 00:25:41,606 --> 00:25:43,966 Speaker 1: to come here. Um. So it's it's more of a 411 00:25:44,206 --> 00:25:46,886 Speaker 1: how do you say ellipsis in Spanish, it's not a bunt, 412 00:25:47,686 --> 00:25:53,926 Speaker 1: but it's the e ellipsis considers more to Honestly, my 413 00:25:53,966 --> 00:25:55,806 Speaker 1: parents didn't teach me that it was just all about it. 414 00:25:56,646 --> 00:25:58,286 Speaker 1: I don't know that it exists in Spanish, to be 415 00:25:58,326 --> 00:26:03,406 Speaker 1: honest with you, that exist. They just wanted to traumatize us, 416 00:26:03,526 --> 00:26:06,486 Speaker 1: not really. Yeah, yes, and they did, but they did 417 00:26:06,526 --> 00:26:10,846 Speaker 1: a very good job of it. So my epunto here 418 00:26:11,166 --> 00:26:19,446 Speaker 1: is we will be processing, dissecting, and evaluating these draft 419 00:26:19,526 --> 00:26:23,766 Speaker 1: prospects coming up with Combine and all the drills and 420 00:26:23,806 --> 00:26:29,926 Speaker 1: everything that they're going to be doing. It will be fun, 421 00:26:30,166 --> 00:26:33,646 Speaker 1: enjoyable to get to know some of these guys, these prospects. 422 00:26:34,046 --> 00:26:37,646 Speaker 1: You never know where they're going to come from. We 423 00:26:37,726 --> 00:26:42,366 Speaker 1: mentioned Brock pretty earlier and our premios look at him 424 00:26:42,646 --> 00:26:46,766 Speaker 1: seventh round and limited arm and look what he did 425 00:26:48,006 --> 00:26:51,486 Speaker 1: from that combine. So I my is I can't wait 426 00:26:51,486 --> 00:26:55,086 Speaker 1: to see the future stars show themselves there. And we 427 00:26:55,166 --> 00:26:59,806 Speaker 1: will be talking about Bryce Young's size and how it's 428 00:26:59,846 --> 00:27:03,166 Speaker 1: going to affect his cash stock and all those sorts 429 00:27:03,206 --> 00:27:07,406 Speaker 1: of things. So that's that's starting. So I can't wait 430 00:27:07,446 --> 00:27:10,686 Speaker 1: to see what future stars that we're going to be 431 00:27:10,726 --> 00:27:15,406 Speaker 1: talking about in the next two or three years. Yeah, 432 00:27:15,446 --> 00:27:17,326 Speaker 1: to your point, I think we do focus on like 433 00:27:17,366 --> 00:27:19,366 Speaker 1: the Bryce Youngs, on the guys who are expected to 434 00:27:19,366 --> 00:27:21,446 Speaker 1: go in the first and the second round. But I 435 00:27:21,486 --> 00:27:24,686 Speaker 1: think if we've learned anything from this season, it's to 436 00:27:24,806 --> 00:27:27,006 Speaker 1: keep an eye on the guys who come in in 437 00:27:27,046 --> 00:27:30,726 Speaker 1: the later rounds because they have just as much a 438 00:27:30,846 --> 00:27:33,646 Speaker 1: potential to break out in this league, and they're only 439 00:27:33,686 --> 00:27:36,366 Speaker 1: one play away from getting their number called. That's just 440 00:27:36,486 --> 00:27:39,086 Speaker 1: the nature of the game and how it goes. We 441 00:27:39,166 --> 00:27:41,286 Speaker 1: hear next man up all the time, but there's a 442 00:27:41,326 --> 00:27:44,126 Speaker 1: reason for that. Like these guys have to stay ready 443 00:27:44,166 --> 00:27:46,686 Speaker 1: at all times, and I love that, even though sometimes 444 00:27:46,766 --> 00:27:49,846 Speaker 1: their opportunities come, you know, at the sake of somebody 445 00:27:49,846 --> 00:27:52,286 Speaker 1: else having gotten hurt or getting an opportunity, but it 446 00:27:52,286 --> 00:27:57,246 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. It's inevitable. Injuries are inevitable in this league, 447 00:27:57,446 --> 00:28:01,126 Speaker 1: and that's why those later draft picks are so important. 448 00:28:01,126 --> 00:28:04,246 Speaker 1: And the teams that do it right does it pay 449 00:28:04,286 --> 00:28:07,126 Speaker 1: dividends for them. No better example than the forty nine 450 00:28:07,206 --> 00:28:09,086 Speaker 1: Ers and the Chiefs, which we saw this year with 451 00:28:09,166 --> 00:28:13,206 Speaker 1: their late rounds, Paggyhawks, Seahawks as well. So this is 452 00:28:13,246 --> 00:28:15,566 Speaker 1: this is an exciting time because we now get to 453 00:28:15,606 --> 00:28:18,086 Speaker 1: see what the future of the league looks like, and 454 00:28:18,126 --> 00:28:20,486 Speaker 1: we can zero in on the guys that are going 455 00:28:20,566 --> 00:28:22,446 Speaker 1: to make it really, really inciting, and then the ones 456 00:28:22,486 --> 00:28:24,926 Speaker 1: that we never see it coming. Those are our very 457 00:28:24,926 --> 00:28:28,526 Speaker 1: favorite stories, like hello, mister irrelevant never more. I wonder 458 00:28:28,566 --> 00:28:32,086 Speaker 1: if they'll retire that jersey this season after after what 459 00:28:32,126 --> 00:28:35,086 Speaker 1: brock Purty did. He has the exception, not the rule, though, 460 00:28:35,166 --> 00:28:38,486 Speaker 1: let's be clear on that for sure. All Right, guys, 461 00:28:38,686 --> 00:28:41,246 Speaker 1: we'll have um more as we get closer to Combine, 462 00:28:41,326 --> 00:28:44,326 Speaker 1: closer to the draft.
