Speaker 1: program because of the guests that you had, and we'll

00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: talk about that in just a second. We've got a

6
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 1: couple of things we want to cover to begin this

Speaker 1: Strunk for the podcast last week and for your response

11
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 1: to her. We've got an amazing feedback on that. And

12
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: it was so much fun to have the controlling owner

13
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,239
Speaker 1: on the show. Oh gosh, it was a blast in

14
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 1: the stories that she was able to tell. If you

15
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: haven't heard it, check it out because it was enlightening

16
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: and entertaining. Yeah, she was a lot of fun. Also,

17
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: thank thank you to you for going to Titans online

18
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: dot com and visiting our draft section and watching the

19
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: player preview videos that we've been doing. Sponsored by Snickers.

20
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: It's a great sponsor, by the way, Oh my gosh,

21
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: certainly one we can endorse. A lot of Snicker's jokes

22
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 1: have been rolling around here now. But yeah, I mean

23
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: snickers satisfies, Oh my gosh. Yes, So we're thankful for that.

24
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: But if you haven't watched the videos, they're fifty guys,

25
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: and we're posting two a day through April the twenty fifth.

26
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: At this point, I guess we have about half of

27
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: them up, and there are a lot of names that

28
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: we think you will find interesting. If you've got a minute, ten,

29
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: a minute, fifteen, you'll enjoy watching those videos, finding out

30
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,199
Speaker 1: a little bit about these players, and you'll be ahead

31
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: of your friends. Absolutely. You'll be more prepared for the

32
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: draft than people who don't go to Titans Online dot

33
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: com and visit the draft section. And isn't that the

34
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: ultimate goal? Having more knowledge than the people close to you?

35
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: Exactly one percent. So all of those thank you's out

36
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: of the way, I want to step in here too

37
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: and say thank you and wish condolences at the same

38
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: time to Joe McConnell, who passed away at the age

39
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 1: of seventy nine in the last week. Joe McConnell was

40
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: the first voice in the history of the NFL franchise

41
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. He was the voice of the Tennessee Oilers

42
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety seven and nineteen ninety eight. He was

43
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 1: a legendary NFL voice, in large part from his days

44
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 1: with the Chicago Bears, calling Walter Payton when Walter Payton

45
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 1: broke Jim Brown's all time rushing record. Joe McConnell is

46
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 1: the man who had the call. He called the NBA,

47
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 1: he called Major League Baseball. He also was the voice

48
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 1: of his beloved Purdue boiler Makers, and that was how

49
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: he ended up here because Mike McClure, the man who

50
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,959
Speaker 1: in large part spearheaded the move of this franchise from

51
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: Houston to Nashville, was a huge Purdue fan and so

52
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: he knew Joe McConnell well, and he Joe McConnell here

53
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: to do the games. And Joe lived in Indianapolis or

54
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: right around Indianapolis. Did not want to move here full

55
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 1: time because he was still doing perdue his wife had

56
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: a good job. And it's why you hit it up

57
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: with me, because he did not want to move here

58
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: full time, but he did the two years, and the

59
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: first year he worked with Jeff Van Note, the former

60
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: Falcon's great who did a really nice job. And then

61
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 1: the second year I was his color commentator, and he

62
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: was incredibly kind to me, taught me a lot and

63
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: genuinely took a lot of interest in what I was

64
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: doing as a young broadcaster and didn't have to. And

65
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: I will always be appreciative to him. The driving force

66
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: behind Titans Radio, the number one force will always be

67
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: Larry Stone. He will be at the top of that

68
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: list forever. But Joe McConnell is certainly on that list

69
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: because of what he gave us and what he taught

70
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: us in those two years. So for those of you

71
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: who never heard him, I wanted to give you a

72
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: chance to hear his greatest Oilers call from the very

73
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: end of a game at Tampa Bay Sunday Night Football

74
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: November eighth, nineteen ninety eight, the Tennessee Oilers and the

75
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Here is Joe McConnell by action. He's

76
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: gotta hurry. I'm gonna gets away SATA, the thirty five, PATA,

77
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 1: the forty, the forty five, the fifty five. Pay go,

78
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: He's gonna score a touchdown. He's in the fifteenth, the

79
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 1: ten five touchdown. But there, oh my goodness, they blenched

80
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: and he broke away from a tackler who was all

81
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 1: over at seventy one yard for the clincher in the

82
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: air just went out of this announcer and the Ray

83
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:49,559
Speaker 1: J Good stuff, good, good stuff, all right. A couple

84
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: other things. Benny Logan signs with the Titans, shouts gotta

85
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: run stuffer on the inside. I'm excited. Not a cheap player,

86
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: a player who was wanted in different places, and so

87
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: the Titans put up the money to get this guy

88
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: who has been a stuffer whether he was in Philly

89
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: or in Kansas City. Helps the defensive line, and I

90
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 1: think most importantly means that you don't automatically have to

91
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: draft a defensive lineman early because you've taken care of

92
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: some deputies. You can and maybe they will. But in

93
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: the John Robinson theme of not wanting to put himself

94
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: in a position where he has to do something, Benny

95
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 1: Logan helps to solve that issue right, gives him a

96
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: chance to breathe a little bit and flesh out what

97
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: he wants to do. There are a lot of different

98
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: directions that he can go now in the draft, because

99
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: it's another piece of the puzzle that's filled. He's not

100
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: plugin holes anymore. Michael Campangero signs from Baltimore. He's a

101
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: wide receiver originally out of Wake Forest. I remember his

102
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: numbers at the combine were excellent. Four years ago. He

103
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: ran a four four six, did twenty on the bench

104
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: thirty nine inch vertical. Good athlete, have a couple of

105
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: injury problems, but it's coming off his best season with

106
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: the Ravens. He kind of takes the Eric Weems role

107
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: a little bit, a younger, faster version of that. And

108
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: I think the other thing too, amy with his ability

109
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 1: to handle kick and punt returns, especially punt returns, what

110
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: we may be seeing is while a door Jackson is

111
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: good at both, maybe he will just do one or

112
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: the other now because he's such a valuable participant in

113
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: what the Titans need him to do, and that's play corner.

114
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: It's funny you say that, because that was my first

115
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: thought when we signed Campanero, was, Oh, this might take

116
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: some pressure off a dory. I mean, shoot, there were

117
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,679
Speaker 1: games where we had him playing offense, defense, and special teams.

118
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 1: Right at some point, he's going to slow down, not

119
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: in a bad way, but he needs a break. He's

120
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: only one guy, that's right, so kind of taking that

121
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 1: pressure off of him. Still having him in the rotation perhaps,

122
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: but not being his entire responsibility has got to be helpful.

123
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 1: Preseason schedule came out, all right, So what jumps out

124
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: to you about the preseason schedule. I am very excited

125
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: and this is very personal, but I'm really excited to

126
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: go to lambeau Field. I've never been before. It's a

127
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: great time to go to lambeau Field in August because

128
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 1: we will get out of the heat, and I mean

129
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: it's wonderful. And all the Packer fans being that that's

130
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: the first game, they will all be there in force. Yes,

131
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: I'm very excited to be going there, not in the winter,

132
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: and seeing a historic field. I'll take you to get

133
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: a butterburger. I'm in. They're awesome, fantast Everybody talks about

134
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: the Bronts the butter burgers are and the cheese Kurds.

135
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: I'm into both of those things. Fantastic. Okay, So that's

136
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: the first preseason game. What I'm most excited about is

137
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: that the Titans drew Pittsburgh in Week three. And here's

138
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: why you're playing a Super Bowl contender, a legitimate Super

139
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: Bowl contender, in the preseason game. That they will most

140
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: look like the Pittsburgh Steelers. So if that's your warm up,

141
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: which it is, then you're going to be taking on

142
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: a team who's not only going to take it seriously,

143
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: but they're a good team. It'll be a good measuring

144
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: stick for where this team really is, how they measure up. Obviously,

145
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: still a preseason game, but there's a little more of

146
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 1: a comparison there. And now we're about ready to get

147
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: the schedule. Yes, seems like it's just a few days

148
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: away now, Oh my gosh. Well, we're hoping it's at

149
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: any time. Yeah, it has to come out eventually. Can't

150
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: keep it from us forever. As we record this. We

151
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: don't know the specifics, but there has been a lot

152
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: of speculation it's going to be at some point next week.

153
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: I would be tickled if that happens. I'm ready to know.

154
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,319
Speaker 1: I love scheduled day too. Okay, but the main part

155
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: of this edition of the OTP is yours, yours and

156
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: Taylor Lwan. It's not really mine, it's Taylor Lawans, all right.

157
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 1: So Tayler Lawan agreed to do the OTP after he

158
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: was called out last week by the owner. Yeah, not really,

159
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 1: but we we made him feel that way. Yeah, absolutely,

160
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 1: which I have no shame in doing whatever it takes.

161
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: We did a radio show with Taylor of one in

162
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: two fifteen that was as much fun as anything I

163
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,319
Speaker 1: have ever done in broadcasting. Fun in a scary kind

164
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: of way. It was fun because we, I mean we

165
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: legitimately from week to week did not know who he

166
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,719
Speaker 1: was going to bring. We didn't know what they were

167
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 1: going to want to talk about. He called my kids

168
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,959
Speaker 1: out of the audience. I mean, anything you could imagine

169
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: that could happen almost happened during that period of time. Yes,

170
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: Coach Malarkey was not really excited about that, so the

171
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 1: show ended. Yes. He always said, however, that he would

172
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: come back and do a podcast with us, and so

173
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: he agreed to do it. He was very excited that

174
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 1: we ended up with a podcast, and he agreed to

175
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: do it on Wednesday of this week when I was

176
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 1: out of town doing some baseball all which was fun,

177
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: but I was very sorry that I missed this opportunity.

178
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:07,719
Speaker 1: So you got the chance to talk with Taylor to

179
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 1: one give me the cliff note version of what all

180
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: we're going to hear in the next several minutes. I

181
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 1: brought a list of all the topics we talked about.

182
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: It's two pages. Okay, so I'm going to give you

183
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: a summary. We talk about pranks, we talked about his fiance,

184
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: We talked about his child, We talk about the Masters.

185
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: We give the origin story for Steve the Beaver, his

186
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: locker room, his locker room friend. Yeah, that's creepy. It's

187
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,839
Speaker 1: very creepy, but the story is pretty good. We talk

188
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: about Nashville. We're getting a very heated debate between Batman

189
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: and Superman. It was as crazy as I thought it

190
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: was going to be. And then some Titan fans love

191
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: Taylor to one because they feel like they know him

192
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: due to the fact that he totally puts himself out there.

193
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 1: This is who he really is. He might be the

194
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 1: most colorful personality to play for this franchise in twenty years.

195
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: He's certainly top five. And it is no act. Oh no, no, no, no,

196
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 1: it was. Talking to him is hilarious because it can happen,

197
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 1: It goes on forever, and it's just a stream of

198
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: consciousnes it is. It's whatever is in his brain is

199
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 1: coming out and we're going to talk about it. And

200
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: what's important to know too is for all of the

201
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 1: teasing and whatever goes on. We like him very much.

202
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 1: I'm a huge title of one fan personally and as

203
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 1: a player. When there was all the talk about Laramie

204
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: Tunsol being drafted to take his place a couple of

205
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 1: years back, I repeatedly told anybody who would listen, this

206
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: is a better player and he's going to be a

207
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: pro bowler because I really believed in what I saw

208
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 1: out of him. When you separate the football player from

209
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: the person. He's an outstanding football player. He follows in

210
00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 1: the Titans left tackle tradition, which is Brad Hopkins, Michael Ruse,

211
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: and now him. It's it's been the best position for

212
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 1: this franchise in terms of how it's been played in

213
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: the twenty years that we've been here. And he's really

214
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: super there. But he is a really good person, a

215
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: nice guy all over the road. And I think that's

216
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: what you're saying, we're going to hear. Oh, yes, that's

217
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: absolutely what you're going to hear. And I mean that's

218
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: just a cliff notes version of all the things we

219
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: talk about. There's more in there that you're going to hear. Well,

220
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: let's not make him wait, No, it's Buckle up, guys.

221
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 1: Buckle up the OTP Amy Wells and two time Pro

222
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: Bowl left tackle Taylor Lewan coming at you. This is

223
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: Taylor one with Titans Amy on Official Titans Podcast. I'm

224
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: sitting here with Titans Amy, the host, who should be

225
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,680
Speaker 1: doing this part, but we've been mumbling and talking for

226
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: the last fifteen minutes, so this is a halfway start

227
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: into the whole thing. Let's get going. What do you

228
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: have in the list there, Titans Amy. I appreciate that, Taylor.

229
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: That was a good That was a good intro. You

230
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: should do this every week. In all seriousness, it is

231
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 1: really good to have you guys back in the building.

232
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: Have you here, But this is the first time you're

233
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: coming into the building with Steve Waterson not being here.

234
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: Is that strange for you? Is that jarring at all? Um? Yeah,

235
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: I'd say it is. I mean, obviously it is. The

236
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: guy's been around for so many years and he's done

237
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: such a great job for this franchise. I just it

238
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: does feel a little different now he's got somebody that

239
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: you know is coming behind him, Tom Canavy that all

240
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: the guys love. Tom is an unbelievable, strange coach. But

241
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: he's a great guy too, and he's got stories for days.

242
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've talked to Tom in the hallways,

243
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 1: but if you catch it, like a hello, how are

244
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: you Tom? You're there for twenty minutes seriously. Oh yeah,

245
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 1: it's the best. Like that guy can talk about any

246
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: You should have him on the podcast on for three hours,

247
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: no problem. Nice. Well, because Waterson was such a kind

248
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: of a jokester he had he had a little mischievous

249
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: side to him. Dude, were you ever privy to that? Oh?

250
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: I can see you guys going on, Like I, like

251
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: my rookie year, I like had this big plan that

252
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: I was gonna start pranking Waterson. Then like Michael Ruse

253
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: and a couple of guys like, don't do that, Like

254
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: you don't want to go down that rabbit hole. It's

255
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 1: like why, Like what's what's going on? What are we

256
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: up to? And so they started telling me stories and

257
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: I guess like some guy put packing peanuts and Waterson's

258
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: vehicle so like an equal justified way, he like put

259
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 1: his car on center blocks and like stole his tires.

260
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: Was just like why would water like that? How is

261
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 1: that equal? Out? It's like the disproportionate. I guess, like

262
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: when Fisher was at the Rams and they came and

263
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: played this preseason, Fisher did something about like I don't know,

264
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: like something about center blocks or something along. I don't

265
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: know what that part. But so Waterson's way to get

266
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: back at him was he had that like you know,

267
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: when you come out of the stadium, the buses come

268
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 1: out of the stadium, you have to put down the

269
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: guard ramps or whatever. Yeah, well he had the guard

270
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: ramps up and somehow locked them so like the team

271
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: was stranded there for like three extra hours. That's a phenomenal.

272
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 1: That's the best because they have like ninety three guys

273
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 1: who obviously just want to fly back home. Like I

274
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: think it was like the fourth peasons game, so there

275
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 1: was about to be some cuts happening, so and everyone

276
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 1: just wants out of there, just want and like that's

277
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: like that's like Steve great, Like I'm gonna get like

278
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: I got you, like and like I love a good prank.

279
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: That's so genuinely amazing, like well thought out and done,

280
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: and I just some of the things he would tell

281
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: you half believe there's no way he did that. And

282
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: then you like have like three credited sources to be like, no,

283
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: that absolutely happened. No, I believe every story I've ever heard.

284
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: I believe every single story. Well, I'm pretty sure in

285
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: regards to Waterson, I believe her. I'm pretty sure Waterson

286
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: told me he invented the squad in nineteen eighty six.

287
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I don't I don't know if that's right, Waterston.

288
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 1: I don't know how that if that's true or not,

289
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: that's fair. Though it sounds like that, I'm like, I

290
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 1: mean that in the most joking way possible. I do

291
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: not want my car and center blocks. I did not

292
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: want backing peanuts in my car. I do not want

293
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: to be straight at the stadium for three hours. Are

294
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 1: you like a pranky guy? Though? I mean, you're a

295
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: hilarious guy, but in like a pranks kind of way,

296
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: or just I feel like telling me hilarious is extremely relative,

297
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 1: unsil you ask, oh I think you're hilarious? Are annoying

298
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: based on who you talk to? Um? Yeah, I was

299
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: like pretty pranky in college, like I'd do my best.

300
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: Like there was this poor guy named Craig Row who

301
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: I went to high school with, who was like we

302
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: were in high school together and he went to Mission.

303
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: I went to Michigan, and like he did this thing.

304
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: He was like whenever you get for us, or he

305
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: was like Taylor and then he'd go into whatever it

306
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 1: was he was upset about. But like I heard that

307
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 1: like three times a day, Like I'm that's an overexaggeration

308
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: at all. So like we were roommates and when like

309
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: how Craig was such a well put together man, like

310
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 1: like a gentleman almost at the age of eighteen, and

311
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: I was like over the top of everything, and so

312
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 1: like like Craig would be in the bathroom taking a

313
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 1: shower and it'd be like negative five outside in the

314
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: middle of the wintertime. So I'd steal his towel and

315
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: I like rented under like the sink, and then I

316
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: put it outside. By the time, and he took long showers. Okay,

317
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: I'm not sure why he took long showers, but I'm

318
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: just saying he took long showers. So by the time

319
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: he got this thing was like like wood, like you

320
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: couldn't like bend this thing. And like Craig would be

321
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 1: so mad because our in our dorms, like down the

322
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: hall would be the showers. So like you have to

323
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: come back down the hall to get like your close,

324
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: and so he all when I was the towel, like

325
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: we weren't co ed in that hallway, but like it's

326
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: just me. I did a bunch of stuff to poor

327
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 1: Craig Man. He actually there's this thing that came out

328
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 1: when we played the Cardinals, like some guy did like

329
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: a really nice article on me, and I really appreciated it.

330
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 1: But he was from Arizona, so he interviewed this Craig,

331
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: and then he interviewed my high school coach, and they

332
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: talked about me as football, playing me as a person,

333
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 1: and Craig had to mention that I pranked him by

334
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 1: spray painting his bike gold one time, and then I

335
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: owe him a bike. Now that's an oddly specific prank.

336
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: Was there a reason? I don't know. I think he

337
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 1: only gotten like a prank war, which like how cheesy

338
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 1: is that prank war with somebody? And like I decided,

339
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: like my side was officially chosen a minute I found

340
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: out that it's going on, so I went with Kovacs.

341
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 1: I think it was Jordan Kovacs who actually had a

342
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: little stip with the Dolphins. Oh yeah, but his bike

343
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: is still functional. You don't owe him a bike. It's

344
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: just golden. That was to embrace it. Yeah, no I

345
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: have anything like why wouldn't you want a gold bike?

346
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: Can I ask you about um Taylin a little bit?

347
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: That's my favorite subject to talk about. That was really

348
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: sweeting your fiance Taylor. You have credited her with a

349
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 1: lot of the changes that people kind of have acknowledged

350
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: in you in the last couple of years. What was

351
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 1: it specifically about her or your relationship or what impact

352
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 1: did she have on you? All Right, that's a lot.

353
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: That's a lot to take in. Um. I mean, go

354
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,240
Speaker 1: wherever you want you take it away. So, like my

355
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: big thing about Taylor is like I don't know, um,

356
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: so like the people I was associating myself myself with

357
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 1: before I met Taylor and then after Taylor like dramatically

358
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,720
Speaker 1: changed not only in the people I was hanging out with,

359
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 1: but the number of people I was hanging out with.

360
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 1: I was. I went from this guy that was literally

361
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 1: quote like friends with everybody. Really I was acquaintances with everybody,

362
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 1: but like was just like a you know, I was

363
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: I was a I was a bar show. I was

364
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,880
Speaker 1: hanging out and like being buddies everybody, and I wasn't

365
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 1: gonna say my focuses weren't on what were they were

366
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 1: supposed to be. And so I meet Taylor and like

367
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: this can be cheesy or not, but like literally the

368
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: greatest human being I've ever met my entire life. Like

369
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: that's like like no stretch of the imagination. Every person

370
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,439
Speaker 1: I met, Taylan is way over them. She think she wins.

371
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: And so I realized when I met her. I actually

372
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 1: met her several times, okay, And the first time I

373
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: met her, I was in Leaper's Fork. My mom worked

374
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 1: in Leaper's Fork and like my mom and her were

375
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: best friends, like they hung out together all the time.

376
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,199
Speaker 1: And then I saw her. I was like told my

377
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 1: mom I was like one of my girls, like super hot,

378
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: Like who is this check And she was like, oh,

379
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 1: it's so and so you know whatever, and my mom

380
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 1: and my mom's a big joke with Tayl. I was like,

381
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: when my son Taylor comes around, do not talk because

382
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: if he does, she's just gonna fall in love with

383
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,360
Speaker 1: you and it's gonna be done. And so I met

384
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 1: her a couple more times and stuff like he slaid it.

385
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: So I met a couple more times, and finally, like

386
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: one time we actually had an opportunity to talk, and

387
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: I was like nothing I've ever felt before in my

388
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: entire life. Like I was like, wow, I was like

389
00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 1: super super blown away, and so like I realized, like

390
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 1: the person I was and seeing the person that I wanted,

391
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 1: those two people didn't match up. So I had to

392
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 1: make a dramatic change in myself to like meet those

393
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: goals of being able to have a woman like tailing,

394
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 1: so you know, like yeah, maturity came. She is like

395
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 1: an incredibly good teacher, Like she does such a great job.

396
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: When I'm overwhelmed with something, she lays it all on

397
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 1: the table and she says, Okay, like this is what

398
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,159
Speaker 1: you're worried about, this is what really is the issue,

399
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: and like kind of diagnosed it for me and kind

400
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,120
Speaker 1: of helps me through those types of things and gives

401
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 1: me those tools to like, you know, maybe not get

402
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: super rattled about stuff rather than like, okay, like I

403
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 1: can fix this. This this is how I you know,

404
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 1: just basic things, basic tools that I just didn't have.

405
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 1: And yeah, I think I would not. I tell her

406
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: all the time, like she's like when I made my

407
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 1: first pro bol She's like, you did it, And I

408
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: was like, that's like ridiculous to say, like we did

409
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 1: this because without her, like that would have never happened.

410
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 1: But I would have never been I would have been

411
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 1: never been able to Like the talent level was there obviously,

412
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: but like the mental stability, the going a weekend in

413
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 1: a week out is like such a stressful thing to

414
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: do in football and playing these guys that were all

415
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: Pro at one time or all Pro right now, Pro

416
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 1: Bowl or like every week there's somebody there's always that

417
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 1: pass rusher that you have to go against that's you know, ohway,

418
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 1: this guy's a game changer, he's a game wrecker or

419
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. To go from week

420
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: to week and be like like I have to do

421
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: this again and again and again. Like that success you

422
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 1: had that Sunday, Yeah, turned that office just a game

423
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,199
Speaker 1: is pretty much over. Like you can't sit on your

424
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 1: successes like that. And the same thing goes for when

425
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: you don't have a good game. And I didn't do

426
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 1: a great job of like you know, not getting too high,

427
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: not getting too love, but staying very consistent. And so Taylor,

428
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: she she just she kept me consistent and sometimes it

429
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,960
Speaker 1: drove me nuts, Like I was like one, I was like,

430
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: my god, Taylor stopped. Like if I did really well,

431
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: I'd be up. And she would always be like you know,

432
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: she would never like break me down by any means,

433
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: but she would be like all right, but like, hey

434
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 1: we there's another week. You have to do this again.

435
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,159
Speaker 1: And when I didn't have a good game, I'm my

436
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,160
Speaker 1: biggest critic. And that's the never change, like since high school,

437
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: college or anything. That's I'm my biggest critic. So when

438
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: I when I would get beat or something would happen,

439
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: I get Marcus sacked. Like I take those sacks extremely personally,

440
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 1: like especially because how how I feel about Marcus Mariota,

441
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 1: Like I don't just like like he's a teammate, but

442
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 1: he's also an amazing person, so it's almost it's way

443
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 1: more personal for me when I do something to wrong

444
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: him in those situations, yea, And I would just beat myself,

445
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 1: beat the hell out of myself, and she would like,

446
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: you know, pick me up, Like this is you know,

447
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,640
Speaker 1: there's sixteen games, like you just you can't have those

448
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: kinds of feelings. So I mean, this is extremely a

449
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 1: long winded version of telling you how awesome my wife is.

450
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: But like she is, like she's she deserves every bit

451
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,159
Speaker 1: of credit that I've gotten with either the Titans or

452
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: national media or in the football world or anything like that.

453
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: Like she is, like she's the like that piece, She's

454
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 1: that that missing piece that I needed. So you being

455
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 1: in two time pro bowler and having all the success

456
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 1: you've had and all of this, you attribute to her,

457
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: not to yourself. Yeah, I'm like I said, it takes.

458
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: It takes. It took both of us because I had

459
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: to go out there and Sundays. If you put Tale

460
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,719
Speaker 1: in the left tackle position, she's gonna get rolled over

461
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 1: every time. But there's not gonna be a chance. Yes,

462
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: But um, like from a physical standpoint, I believe I

463
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: always had that. I always had the physical abilities um mentally,

464
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,360
Speaker 1: and like I'm still growing. I still have a bunch

465
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 1: of stuff to that I have to figure out a

466
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 1: day to day basis, And she she kind of showed

467
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: me like that, like every day you have to grow

468
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: as a person. I think there's no you're either growing

469
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: or you're not, and so like there's really no gray

470
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 1: area between that. So like if you're doing something, the

471
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: better yourself. Every single day then like you're becoming a

472
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 1: better person and like that's you know, I still have

473
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: so much work to do, like I've I haven't locked

474
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 1: any keys or anything like that, and I know, like

475
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 1: I haven't even reached my full potential of what this

476
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: whole football thing can be. So I know it's crazy.

477
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: I just it's I'm like, I'm extremely lucky. I'm the

478
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: luckiest guy in the world for sure, and you're a

479
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,439
Speaker 1: new dad too, so that's got to have some impact

480
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,679
Speaker 1: on it. Yeah, that's crazy, dadding. Well, is that like

481
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: the clichea thing off adulting? Yes, exactly. Yeah, I think

482
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: that's the ultimate. I didn't know that was cliche. All right.

483
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: I hate okay, so I do less like serious moment.

484
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,200
Speaker 1: I hate the word adulting really. I think it's so

485
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: cheesy and oh gosh, I use it all the time,

486
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: do you really. Yeah, I'm one of those people that

487
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,400
Speaker 1: when I go and like I go to like people

488
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 1: like twenty four and they're like, oh my god, adulting,

489
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,920

491
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: to talk to you anymore. Now you go to the bars,

492
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,080

493
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 1: Instagram and stuff like that. You've seen every one Monday,

494
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 1: like world starting. All these people are like how I

495
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 1: feel on Monday. And it's like a meme of a

496
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: guy like jumping out of a building. Yeah, it's like,

497
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: that's funny. I got a giggle out of that. Like

498
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,399
Speaker 1: what a horrible way to look at things, you know,

499
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: what a horrible way to go about it. Adult think

500
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: it's such a weird thing to be a hot point

501
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: for you, dude, I got little triggers, like the stupidest things,

502
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 1: Like the dumbest things bug me. Like what else is

503
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: it trigger for you? Oh? Man? Very aware of my

504
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: own like vernacular right now and the way that I

505
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 1: speak No, no no, you're good. You don't have to worry

506
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: about If you were to say adult right now, this

507
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 1: podcast would be over. But like, other than that, I

508
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: think we're good. I'm pretty lenient. It's crazy how things

530
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 1: to ask you about being a dad, because that's where

531
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 1: we started and we never got back there. My kids

532
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 1: super red. Yeah, okay, so when rebel lawe for everybody

533
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 1: in the South, who are wondering, Oh, how do you

Speaker 1: I don't associate my daughter with paper cups, but I

536
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: do associate her with her mother, and they're both super red. Yeah,

537
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,360

Speaker 1: Like she totally she won the latter in that situation

539
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,240

Speaker 1: like yes, cried for a bit, have to thank God.

546
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 1: But like she's like like people say like, oh, when

547
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,280

Speaker 1: always happy, like, um, she paid attention to everything, and

555
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,520
Speaker 1: like she would watch you and track you throughout the room.

556
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm the classic dad that's like my

Speaker 1: get excited, like they're way more interactive. That's where like

609
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 1: when like the dad comes out like I'm such a

610
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: cheese ball at home, like be home and like who's

611
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 1: the bunny? What are you doing? Like I literally if

612
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 1: my buddies came over like oh hey guys, oh look

613
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: what's here? Like I'm like, oh my god, the one

614
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: shut it down, buddy, like you need to figure it

615
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: out a little bit. I go from like this want

616
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 1: to be tough guy in the football field, and I

617
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: come home and I'm like, who's my bunny? Where my

618
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: bunny is there? It's just like stupid. Like my wife

619
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: and I got an argument the other day because like

620
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 1: she's got like these two bottom teeth, and like Taylor,

621
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 1: like since day one, they've called her a bunny, like

622
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: that's what she is, and her two front teeth's trying

623
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 1: to come in like yes, people who are like fact nerds,

624
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 1: bunnies have front teeth too. But I decided to mess

625
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: with Taylor and be like, oh, she's a little beaver now,

626
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 1: she's a little little beaver teeth, and she like for

627
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: some reason was like no, no, Taylor, she's a bunny.

628
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: She's a bunny. And there was like probably, I think

629
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 1: we're still in the fight right now. I'm sure what's

630
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 1: going on, but like yeah, we're all about we're all

631
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: about the beaver bunny moves. But like she's definitely a bunny. Huh,

632
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: how did you land on bunny? It just came out.

633
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 1: It's just it was what it was. Man. I love

634
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 1: to go into that story, but I've already am like,

635
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: I'm asking myself enough, Like i' it's being a dad.

636
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 1: I assume this is what parenting looks like. We had

00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: tagged in a photo on Twitter two did me and

638

00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:46,760

00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: I was like, it's a little off from a beaver,

651
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 1: but yeah, sure Jack absolutely and so Um for his

653
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 1: a joint gift, me and my beaver got him. Officer cornwallis, okay,

654
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: you're right. Why are we laughing? Are you laughing at

655
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: my beaver right now? You're actually crying sad, Yoki, such

656
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: a touching gift. It was office cornwallis, so like he's

657
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 1: either on duty or off d that's our stupid old

658
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 1: line joke, because he hasn't. He has a police officer

659
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 1: like an old English police officers police officer's hat, and

660
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: he wears it when he's on duty, and he doesn't

661
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,959
Speaker 1: wear him he's off duty. Where do you find that?

662
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 1: Where do you find the hats and outfits for these?

663
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: Here's the plug and hopefully, like I think her name

664
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 1: is Gigi, she hears this so I can get a

665
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: free hat out of this. But yeah, um, so there's

666
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: a place called hat Works on Eighth Avenue. If you

667
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 1: guys haven't been there, it's awesome. Um Gigi will yell

668
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: at Gi. I think it's Gigi. I'm really hoping it's Gigi.

669
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: If you hold the hats a certain way of hat Works,

670
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 1: you will get yelled at. So buyer aware. Oh I

671
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 1: went in there one time. This is the whole Beaver story.

672
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna go over it because it's one of

673
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: my favorite stores. Yeah. So I go in there a

674
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: couple of years ago and I see this beaver and

675
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: it's just a beautifully done tax German beaver. It's and

676
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 1: it's me. It's hilarious because there's a hat on it,

677
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 1: and I think that's stupid. Stuff is so funny to me,

678
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: So I said, I said, Gigi. I went in there

679
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 1: like three or four times. It was like, I need

680
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 1: this beaver. I need it. I don't want it anymore,

681
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: I need it. I'll give you two hundre dollars for

682
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 1: this beaver and she's like, nuts, not for sale. I

683
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 1: think I got up to like one thousand dollars for

684
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 1: this beaver. Like I got so obsessed with it. That's

685
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: why I spend my money on. By the way, if

686
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: anyone's wondering like stupid things like taxiderman beavers. So I

687
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: meet my wife to be and she's like, she's like, well,

688
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: my birthday was coming up, but she's like, what do

689
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 1: you want for your birthday? I was like, I want

690
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: a tax Germany beaver. That's what I want. And she's like,

691
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 1: going on the things, and I made it. I made

692
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: a crucial air. Looking back on it, I don't regret

693
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 1: it because I got Steve out of it. But there

694
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 1: was a beaver with like the the rock on on

695
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: his fingers, like his fingers were molded, not molded like

696
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,360
Speaker 1: I guess move like they were put in that like that,

697
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 1: like the rock rock on. Yeah, because people can't see

698
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: me right now, so it's my hands, but like there's

699
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 1: in the rock on I guess before like he like

700
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,720
Speaker 1: was like stiff. I don't know what's that called. They've

701
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: been people, dead bodies, god stiff. Yeah, I don't know.

702
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: So anyway, this this beaver's taxes do me like that.

703
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 1: I was like, that's pretty funny, but it could be

704
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,880
Speaker 1: funnier looking back on that's hilarious. That's that should have been.

705
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: But I'm happy I get Steve. Anyway, I was like,

706
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 1: I can't see the beaver otherwise I want to be

707
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,560
Speaker 1: a present. It would just be like I'm we're buying

708
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: this together. Yeah, So my birthday comes up July twenty second.

709
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 1: If he body can't get me a gift, and um,

710
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 1: we go to this place. I don't remember what it's called,

711
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: but it's also on eighth Avenue and tailor throws me

712
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 1: a surprise party. So like, Brian Schwenky's there, I'm pretty

713
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,399
Speaker 1: sure Ben Jones is there. A couple other guys there,

714
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 1: Delaney's there, like and a couple of other friends I

715
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: have in Nashville. They're there, and there's a there's like

716
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: a rectangle box standing up with like wrapped and wrapping paper,

717
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,400
Speaker 1: and like two feelings came over me. Like one feeling

718
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: is like so stoked because I know there's a tax

719
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: to beaver in there, and the other party was like, Okay, hey,

720
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,359
Speaker 1: all my friends are here and they don't understand like

721
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: the backstory of this text. Tie the only person that

722
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 1: really understands his tailing. So, like, the presents come out

723
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,439
Speaker 1: and I'm like this weird awkward, like excited but also

724
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 1: kind of weird and out nervous. So I decide, you

725
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 1: know what, I'm just gonna be excited about it. I'm stoked.

726
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 1: And so she brings over the present and I'm like, oh,

727
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 1: like my stupid cheese. Oh I wonder what this could be,

728
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,319
Speaker 1: you know, Like I unwrap it and I opened it

729
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: up and it's a beaver with like his webbed feet

730
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,720
Speaker 1: like are wedged into like a little like kids style

731
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: like vans, because like all I wear vans. He's got

732
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 1: a cigarette in his hand, ray band, glasses and the

733
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 1: same hat at hat works that that other beaver was wearing.

734
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: And I was like so like like that freeze frame

735
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 1: jump in the air, fist in the air like kind

736
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: of feeling. And I'm like, I'm like, oh, this is awesome, babe,

752
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:31,239
Speaker 1: why this beaver was in front of him. He's like, dog, what,

753

00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 1: whole day I practice, like I felt John watching me

758
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,320
Speaker 1: like I was gonna get him, Like like I'm just

759
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 1: gonna get you because a beaver was in front of you.

760
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: But I don't. I don't understand. So so stupid, we

761
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 1: are so dumb. But it's so funny. You brought it

762
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 1: on the road. Was that for playoff games? Or was

763
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,839
Speaker 1: that to phoenix? Was a phoenix? Yeah? Yeah, really will

764
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,360
Speaker 1: never make an appearance again. On the buses to the

765
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 1: West Coast. It was jarring for me. I'll be honest,

766
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 1: I'm afraid of the beaver, like really truly frightened them. It.

767
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: I'm just really I don't like what about it scares you.

768
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: It's like a like a like a oh, I'm scared

769
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 1: of it? Are you actually afraid of this beaver? It

770
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: really makes me uncomfortable. It's like a it's a taxidermied

771
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 1: animal thing. Okay, I'm totally forgot to tell the best

00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,600
Speaker 1: I'm trying to explain to people that are listening something

777
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 1: an idiot, but like I'm like, you know, you do

778
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: that like it literally is like paper machee on his stomach.

779
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 1: I swear to god, it was like a seventh Trader's

783
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 1: horribly like a balloon on it for his tail. It's horrible.

786
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 1: think I know a good taxidermy job for a bad one,

787
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 1: but I know that I don't want to touch it.

788
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:07,440
Speaker 1: You've been in the industry as long as I have.

789
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: Have you do you have any other taxidermied animals? I

790
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,880
Speaker 1: do you really do? Yeah? So tailand's next? Next birthday.

791
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 1: Fast forward to the next year, which was this past year,

792
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 1: July twenty second, If anybody forgot um tunds, Like what

793
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:23,880
Speaker 1: do you want for your birthday? I was like, I

794
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,319
Speaker 1: want to taxidermy bear with a hat and maybe some

795
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 1: boxing gloves. So that's super funny. I don't know why

796
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 1: taxidermy creatures are so funny to me. I don't get it. Uh.

797
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:38,399
Speaker 1: Like Also, like Tailing's like she's given me these gifts

798
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 1: that are like kind of against everything she believes in,

799
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,320
Speaker 1: Like she like shows she like she went to the

800
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 1: pause to film a documentary on animal trafficking at lasendo

801
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: Verde less animal refugee and you're like the number one quiet,

802
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 1: Well I'm not they're already dead, okay, Like they're done.

803
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 1: Like you're like I get not get to rout the benefits,

804
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,319
Speaker 1: I guess, but like I totally support Tailor everything she

805
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 1: wants to do. But she filmed this documentary and like

806
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:03,399
Speaker 1: there's a trailer out now if anybody wants to check

807
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 1: it out, I will make sure and put it up

808
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: when this podcast comes out. But like she did an

809
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,719
Speaker 1: incredible job, Like she went down with a crew that

810
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 1: no one has any experience, like they're all in school

811
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 1: still and they go down in the documentary is based

812
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 1: on her. She's the host hostess with the mostess, and

813
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 1: she goes down the world's deadliest road on a bicycle,

814
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: like she goes listen to Verde. There's no cell phone

815
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 1: like reception at all. So like I'm in camp wondering

816
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 1: what the hell my fiance is doing. I'm super nervous

817
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:34,360
Speaker 1: about it. But she like takes a monkey for twenty

818
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 1: days that's in like at this refugee and like becomes

819
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: the best friends with it. She ends up crying when

820
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,399
Speaker 1: the monkey's like when she's leaving, Like both of them

821
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 1: cry together, like monkeys don't cry. Their eyes just welt up.

822
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 1: So he was really an emotional time for both of them.

823
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 1: I wasn't there, so I can't really speak on it.

824
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 1: But um, so I tell her my birthday. I want

825
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 1: to tax hermy bear, like grizzly grizzly black, Dak kodak,

826
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: I don't kodak black. I don't know, So I ask

827
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: for this tax durmy bear and she's like, okay, Like

828
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 1: she goes back to me like a week later, she's like, look,

829
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 1: I know it's funny to you, but these texttermy bears

830
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 1: like five thousand dollars up. I'm like, okay, like, what's

831
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,800
Speaker 1: your question? Like this is hilarious. I'm anything with a

832
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 1: laugh is priceless to me. I don't care. And so

833
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,279
Speaker 1: she makes the judgment call, which I'm really happy she did.

834
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 1: I'm not getting the bear for Taylor. This is this

835
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: is insane. So instead for Christmas, Oh it was it? No,

836
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,439
Speaker 1: it was my birthday. It might have been Christmas. Well,

837
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: for the sake of argument, we'll say birthday. I like, like,

838
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 1: than god, it wasn't another surprise party. But I get

839
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 1: this little box. I'm like I actually was like, oh

840
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 1: what is this gonna be? And I pull out this

841
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 1: taxidermy squirrel. Okay, so the squirrel has a cowboy hat

842
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,719
Speaker 1: on it with like a little gun slinger belt, like

843
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 1: an old Western gun slinger belt and a pistol and

844
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,399
Speaker 1: it's a little hand and it's like like it's about

845
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 1: to shoot you. I'm like, oh my god, it's so funny,

846
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 1: like it's like hilarious, it's sitting. I wanted to bring

847
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 1: it in in, but I'd be like this would be two overboard.

848
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 1: I'm just bringing in tax drmy animals in the facility. Now,

849
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 1: like I'm gonna get fired, right, so I just I

850
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:01,280
Speaker 1: just leave it at the house. It is on a shelf.

851
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 1: I haven't named him, but god, it's so funny. It's

852
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,279
Speaker 1: like makes your smile every time and think about him.

853
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 1: I gotta be honest, it's so funny. Like what's he

854
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 1: robbingly acorns? Let's say, like, is he taking out of

855
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 1: those acorn? I don't know. It's so dumb him an

856
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,720
Speaker 1: elementary school student. It's really funny though, it is funny.

857
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,799
Speaker 1: I think it's so funny. Man. It's a good thing

858
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,760
Speaker 1: that I made these notes here so that we didn't

859
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:27,719
Speaker 1: get on some weird tangent that would really win a podcast. Okay,

860
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 1: so what let's talk about this? Yeah? Did you hear me? Sorry?

861
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 1: I was I close enough to the microphone. Um, how

862
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 1: did this whole podcasting come about? Let me tell you, Taylor,

863
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:38,840
Speaker 1: because you're asking this question because you know that I

864
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 1: know the answer, but I want but let me. I'll

865
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 1: tell everybody answer. We had a radio show at the

866
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: Logans Roadhouse, and we had so much fun, and so

867
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:53,000
Speaker 1: I was inspired because it felt so constricting. We just

868
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 1: get on a roll and then we had to take work. Yeah,

869
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: you have to take a break, and then I can't

870
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: really see what you want. There were so many things

871
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 1: that I felt we left on the table, and so

872
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 1: you were the first person that I talked to about

873
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 1: this endeavor. We used to sit after the show and

874
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:12,760
Speaker 1: eat and have a couple of beers and just unload.

875
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 1: So the idea of a podcast came up, and it was, well,

876
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: Taylor needs to be part of this. This would be

877
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,359
Speaker 1: the perfect outlet for all of these things. Where else

878
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: in the world can you talk about all of your

879
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: tax Germany animals and how much you love your fiance?

880
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,560
Speaker 1: And the answer to that is Ellen. Okay, I could

881
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: probably talk about that Ellen. You probably could talk about

882
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: that on Ellen, but I don't have access to Ellen,

883
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 1: and I wanted to be a part of Ell. I

884
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 1: don't know if you're one of the seven people listening

885
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 1: to this, but we are willing to come on. We're willing.

886
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,919
Speaker 1: But it felt like the perfect avenue to go down

887
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 1: and now look at us. Yeah, I'm definitely here against

888
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,319
Speaker 1: my will, But dude, how long did it take? It

889
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 1: took a really long time. It was a lot of work,

890
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 1: But wasn't it kind of worth it. I mean, we're

891
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 1: not done with the show yet, so we'll see. There's

892
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: still time. Yeah, I can't like say whether or not

893
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:04,880
Speaker 1: it's a it was a success until it's all over, right,

894
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 1: all right, Well yeah, we'll circle to be honest with you,

895
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:08,319
Speaker 1: like this is a great show, like this is this

896
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: is hilarious. I love the setup. Um, if you suggestion box,

897
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:14,480
Speaker 1: I'm willing to put a couple of notes in it.

898
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: Number one, I would put two more microphones for the

899
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 1: other people that are in the building, right, so that

900
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 1: they could talk also, right, and then so they can

901
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 1: get a little credit when credit is due. Not saying,

902
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 1: not saying you have to be a mic hog, but

903
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying, like it'd be maybe if we want to

904
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 1: get something out of out in the air. Oh man,

905
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 1: how many people do listen to this thing? Because this

906
00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: is going to come out and everyone be like, hey,

907
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: like the one's still weird bird. See I don't think

908
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 1: so I really do. Okay, I'm okay with it though,

909
00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 1: because I know what I am. Yeah, I'm a weird bird. Yeah,

910
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 1: a couple of thousand. Oh no, but you do a

911
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,439
Speaker 1: lot of other media things. I mean, you do things

912
00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 1: on the radio, you do interviews with people, you speak

913
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 1: at your locker every week, Like people have a pretty

914
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,279
Speaker 1: good idea, like contractually obligated to speak in my locker

915
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: every week. I know, yeah, but still, I mean, you

916
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 1: are one one of the most recognizable faces of this team,

917
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,040
Speaker 1: so it's not like people aren't kind of aware of

918
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:08,960
Speaker 1: your personality anyway. I guess it's fair. Thank you for

919
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 1: the compliment. Yeah, I don't really. I don't tweet very often.

920
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 1: I guess I tweet a decent amount. But some guys

921
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 1: are out there tweeting every day every second. Really, yes,

922
00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:22,439
Speaker 1: get itbe is on the social media right now. Yeah,

923
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,840
Speaker 1: that guy's like on a tour. Well, he had his

924
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,400
Speaker 1: he had his thing, he had his moment with the

925
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 1: Dion Sanders thing, and so now he's now he's a

926
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:35,160
Speaker 1: social media star right now. Yeah, he's kind of killing it.

927
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 1: How ridiculous is that? By the way, it's not going

928
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 1: to remember not remember he didn't even know who one

929
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:44,440
Speaker 1: of the best safeties in the algas. It seems a

930
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 1: little bit uh not being very good at your jobbish.

931
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 1: It was just such a strange thing to happen, and

932
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 1: then it exploded. It went from like oh, wasn't this

933
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 1: a weird exchange? To national media is talking about it.

934
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: We'll tell a couple of things and there, Yeah, it's

935
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: totally worth national media. But also there's nothing going on

936
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 1: right now, right, you know except for the Masters of

937
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,319
Speaker 1: this past weekend, and like basketball's like winding down right, Yeah,

938
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: but it's signed the playoffs yet. Did you watch the Masters? Oh? No, Jud,

939
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:15,280
Speaker 1: I can't golf. I can't swing it at my add's

940
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 1: too strong. I get out there and I swing her

941
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 1: a couple of times, and I get stoked with the

942
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:23,359
Speaker 1: ball goes in the air like I had fired up,

943
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 1: like you haven't seen. But sometimes I most of em

944
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 1: just topped the ball and everyone's big excuse to me,

945
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: It's like, well, you just need bigger clubs. That's not

946
00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 1: what it is, Bud. I'm just bad at this game.

947
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,360
Speaker 1: Like come on, but we both know, like not Tiger

982
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 1: out of the way. I like what. I took this

983
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 1: water bottle and I threw it on the ground, like

984
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 1: within five minutes that he picked up. Wow, looks like

985
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 1: it's Disney World. There's a bunch of other things he

986
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:23,960
Speaker 1: was telling me. But I was a little I was tired,

987
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 1: So that's not what I picked up one, right, but

988
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,880
Speaker 1: it was. I mean, it's it's just cool to hear

989
00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 1: about like different sports traditions like that. I like that

990
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: a lot. Yeah, do you have like a thing that

991
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,960
Speaker 1: you're planning in the event that you win the Super Bowl?

992
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 1: We're going to do this? Are you going to go

993
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:44,840
Speaker 1: to Disney World? Say no? I think Markus would be

994
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:46,920
Speaker 1: the one saying that, no one's gonna be like Taylor

995
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,759
Speaker 1: you're just a left tackle, Like you won the Super Bowl?

996
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 1: What are you gonna do? I'm probably gonna hang out

997
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 1: my daughter tonight. Let's go say it. Like what, I

998
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:58,880
Speaker 1: don't know, I really don't. I really have no idea

999
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: how how I would even handle that situation. Like I

1000
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: can't say that I haven't like dreamed of it, because

1001
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 1: I totally have. But it's hard to say. It's hard

1002
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:08,640
Speaker 1: to say what I would actually do. Like if I

1003
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 1: could sit here and I could come up with a

1004
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:11,839
Speaker 1: bunch of stuff that i'd actually do, like, yeah, it's great,

1005
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 1: but I don't know what I would actually do. I

1006
00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 1: would I would freak out. I have an absolute freak

1007
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 1: out sess. Dude, that'd be awesome. It'd be so cool,

1008
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,279
Speaker 1: especially because a city like this, Like do you know what,

1009
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,359
Speaker 1: people don't really understand how cool Nashville is. I agree

1010
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 1: with that. I think like I've talked to some people

1011
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 1: when I first got here. They're like, I was like, dude,

1012
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:31,319
Speaker 1: this is what this city is pretty rad, and they're like, yeah,

1013
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 1: if you love Nashville, should go to Austin. It's national

1014
00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 1: and steroids. So it's like cool, I'll make a plan

1015
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: to do that one day. Why I'd go to a

1016
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 1: bachelor party in Austin about a year and a half ago,

1017
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 1: and I get there and I'm like, this place sucks

1018
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,879
Speaker 1: compared to Nashville. No offense people from Austin, but like

1019
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 1: you can't compare that, Like, like Nashville is way cooler

1020
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 1: than Austin, way cooler. There's just so much going on here,

1021
00:48:56,600 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 1: always so many cranes, so many cranes, so many cranes out. Yeah,

1022
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 1: and if every day like I'll leave the only thing

1023
00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 1: the big knock on Nashville for me. I have a couple,

1024
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:12,359
Speaker 1: but the two I will just talk about right now

1025
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,799
Speaker 1: is if you need anything to get done in a

1026
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,640
Speaker 1: timely fashion, sorry, Bud, that will not happen like you

1027
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 1: have Like if someone's like, hey, this will get done

1028
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 1: in a week, like I'll see in a month. In

1029
00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:25,719
Speaker 1: my head, I make a little mental note, I'm still

1030
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 1: gonna get upset when that weeks up. Don't know why,

1031
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 1: Like I know what's gonna happen, yet I still get mad.

1032
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:32,879
Speaker 1: And then also the traffic's awful. Yeah, it's getting worse

1033
00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,799
Speaker 1: and worse, especially because I go like I'll leave the

1034
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:37,400
Speaker 1: city as soon as the season's over. And I'll be

1035
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 1: in Arizona for that part until we come to OTAs

1036
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,439
Speaker 1: and I'll come back and it's just awful, Like it's

1037
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: just the traffic actually gets worse. It's noticeably worse every year.

1038
00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 1: And so I don't know how you fix it though,

1039
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 1: because whoever, like whatever guru highway architect guru made this

1040
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,000
Speaker 1: system really food barred the whole thing. Well, the thing is,

1041
00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:00,640
Speaker 1: this city grew up so quickly. I mean it's this

1042
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 1: is your five for me, and it has changed dramatically

1043
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:06,360
Speaker 1: in the five years that I've been here. Here in fourteen,

1044
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 1: I got here in thirteen. Well, this is your five

1045
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,120
Speaker 1: for me too, So how's that? Well, it's football year five.

1046
00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:14,440
Speaker 1: This is calendar year five, football year six. You're doing

1047
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 1: seasons or calendars? Always do seasons my life. I don't

1048
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 1: see that's how I start of the year for me Augustice, Yeah,

1049
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:24,279
Speaker 1: I do. I do football seasons. Yeah, so it's your

1050
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:27,839
Speaker 1: six for me. Well you dedical calendar seasons, right, Well

1051
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:29,760
Speaker 1: I did because there are people who are not football,

1052
00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:31,320
Speaker 1: people who are listening to this, so I want to

1053
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:33,879
Speaker 1: make sure that I speak in their language as well. Well, yeah,

1054
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:35,920
Speaker 1: you're saying you're better than those people. No, I'm saying

1055
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:37,839
Speaker 1: that you think you're Harry Potter and their Muggles. I

1056
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,399
Speaker 1: do always think I'm Harry Potter and their Muggles. But

1057
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 1: that's a whole different thing. Um No, you have to

1058
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:46,200
Speaker 1: use both anywhere. I've been here for five years. A

1059
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 1: lot of things have changed five or six depends, yes,

1060
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:54,920
Speaker 1: five calendar years, six football years, or I'm starting my

1061
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 1: six football year. You've really been here for five years.

1062
00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:00,359
Speaker 1: I'm going in my fifth year right now. Holy dude,

1063
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:05,160
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, you're a vet now, Like no, not really,

1064
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:07,759
Speaker 1: Like I'm just like still a rookie who's been around,

1065
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:09,759
Speaker 1: hanging around here for five years. I still kind of

1066
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: feel like you're brand new. I don't know why I

1067
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,359
Speaker 1: feel this because you and I have basically been here

1068
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:17,520
Speaker 1: the same amount of time. Keep it freshman, But man,

1069
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,799
Speaker 1: how did this happen? And now you're like all grown

1070
00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:25,120
Speaker 1: up with a kid, the coolest kid. Yeah, my kids

1071
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,800
Speaker 1: better than all of your kids. Who's listening. Adulting happened? Stop.

1072
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,480
Speaker 1: That's very good though. Wasn't it called parenting? It all

1073
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:36,799
Speaker 1: the way around? It's good, Thank you. I kind of

1074
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,279
Speaker 1: want to ask you about Marcos and why you love

1075
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:43,320
Speaker 1: him so much because your love is like your guys'

1076
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:47,560
Speaker 1: relationship is not just like offensive linemen and quarterback it's

1077
00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 1: taking it weird. No, I don't feel like it's weird.

1078
00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:53,239
Speaker 1: I just feel like you guys are genuinely friends, you

1079
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,560
Speaker 1: genuinely care about. I don't know if like, yeah, yeah,

1080
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:59,400
Speaker 1: we're friends for surely. I just think like in football

1081
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:01,879
Speaker 1: a lot of times, most of the time, I won't

1082
00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:02,960
Speaker 1: say all the time because you don't have to be

1083
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 1: putting that box, but most of the time, like people

1084
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,760
Speaker 1: put on a fisade or act a certain way. And

1085
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:12,920
Speaker 1: Marcus is one of the most genuine human beings that

1086
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 1: were played with and I think that's that to me

1087
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 1: is very admirable. And he's not only you can be

1088
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: genuine and being, but he's genuinely a good person, and

1089
00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 1: so like I don't know, he just seems like a

1090
00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 1: guy that not only is extremely talented it has no

1091
00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:31,600
Speaker 1: reason to be humble, but is extremely humble and everything

1092
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,480
Speaker 1: that he does so for me, I don't know. I

1093
00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know why I have this protective

1094
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:38,879
Speaker 1: nature over him like I do. I'm not sure why

1095
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 1: people tend to blow it up a little bit more

1096
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:44,759
Speaker 1: than it actually is. But I just think that, you know,

1097
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: I would probably i'd do this for any quarterback, don't

1098
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 1: get me wrong, but like something about Marcus and I'm

1099
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:51,520
Speaker 1: not saying we don't hang out very much, you know

1100
00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:53,640
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, but yeah, but I think he's a

1101
00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: really good dude. I think he's a really really good guy.

1102
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 1: And I take my job very personally. I take it

1103
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:02,440
Speaker 1: very very serious. And that's you know, all the jokes

1104
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:05,440
Speaker 1: aside of everything. That's like, you know, you only need

1105
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:07,239
Speaker 1: to do this for so long, right, like how long

1106
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 1: can you actually last? You know, eventually I'm gonna be

1107
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 1: like called an old person here and it's gonna be crazy.

1108
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,319
Speaker 1: It's coming up. No, no, it's not not for at

1109
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:18,719
Speaker 1: least anither five years before people are like he's getting old,

1110
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 1: you know. So I just I just take full advantage

1111
00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:26,200
Speaker 1: of like every opportunity to have a guy like that,

1112
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:29,399
Speaker 1: Like he makes you want to like block for him

1113
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,239
Speaker 1: and run through a wall and make sure this team

1114
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:33,760
Speaker 1: is successful. And I love that when we win games,

1115
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:37,240
Speaker 1: like he is the guy they show because he doesn't.

1116
00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:40,560
Speaker 1: He's such a great guy, so he deserves all the credit.

1117
00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:43,200
Speaker 1: Do you get paid extra to do this. This is

1118
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 1: just something you want to do as well. This is

1119
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:47,040
Speaker 1: just something I wanted to do to give back through

1120
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 1: Titans Community. Wow. But also, I mean, I'm in the building,

1121
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 1: so yeah, you're all. I'm modern day Batman. I am

1122
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:57,319
Speaker 1: kind of Batwoman. Yeah, Catwoman? No, No, I think that's

1123
00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:59,879
Speaker 1: like I think that's like the spinoff of Batman for women.

1124
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:04,360
Speaker 1: I didn't really like Catwoman. I don't know anything about Catwoman.

1125
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:07,719
Speaker 1: But if you could be a superhero, who would you be?

1126
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 1: Kind of like Batman? Do I have to be a girl?

1127
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:14,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to be. Okay, good, thank you. You

1128
00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:15,719
Speaker 1: can be whatever you want to know. I think I

1129
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 1: don't want to be Batman because he has all those tools.

1130
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 1: That's it. Yeah, he has many if he's so smart.

1131
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:26,440
Speaker 1: Let's put this to Let's put this to bed, all right, please.

1132
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 1: Batman is nothing more than extremely well, I guess I

1133
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 1: didn't say that Batman is nothing more than a person

1134
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:38,959
Speaker 1: that's really good a karate that has school gadgets. Okay, um, well,

1135
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:42,120
Speaker 1: Superman is invincible except for a rock. Well, okay, I

1136
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:46,759
Speaker 1: like times he's not a lot of problems with that.

1137
00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,360
Speaker 1: It's like, just go away from the rock. You know

1138
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like you just move like, oh, there's

1139
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:53,960
Speaker 1: a rock, I'm gonna go over here now. But he doesn't.

1140
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,960
Speaker 1: He never does. So where's the common sense in that? Batman?

1141
00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,239
Speaker 1: So much common sense? Common sense? Yeah, well really, if

1142
00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:01,440
Speaker 1: you're a billionaire, what's the common sense of being a vigilante.

1143
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,520
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, he's very smart. Yeah, extremely, it's a billionaire.

1144
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:07,720
Speaker 1: You gotta be smart to get that kind of bills. Buddy,

1145
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:09,840
Speaker 1: there you go. See that's what I'm That's why I

1146
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:12,960
Speaker 1: aspire to be a billionaire or be a superhero. No,

1147
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:16,799
Speaker 1: to be smart, because because now you kind of just

1148
00:55:16,800 --> 00:55:19,319
Speaker 1: sound like that person that wants cash. No, you're looking

1149
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:22,719
Speaker 1: for that money. No stacking that paper. Oh gosh, I

1150
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:28,239
Speaker 1: think um, I think Batman. I think Batman is like

1151
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,879
Speaker 1: like if we're talking about real life, sure, yeah, I'd

1152
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:36,960
Speaker 1: be Batman. That'd be awesome. I wouldn't all I do Batman? Like,

1153
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:39,200
Speaker 1: what do you what's in? Like? Just cough once you're

1154
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:43,040
Speaker 1: going to be all right, sorry, sorry about that. Well,

1155
00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:45,880
Speaker 1: but that's the same everyone's doing. Well he clears the

1156
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 1: theory's like that means problem, Oh why don't you get

1157
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:51,400
Speaker 1: whatever that was in your throat again, Bud, Like that

1158
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:54,640
Speaker 1: was you just go with it at that point? Yeah? Yeah,

1159
00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 1: Like how is it every single time we get something

1160
00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,759
Speaker 1: caught in the stone? Every time that that suit comes on?

1161
00:55:58,840 --> 00:56:01,480
Speaker 1: Like that's how I wrong? Maybe it just squeezes a

1162
00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:09,400
Speaker 1: little too much. Maybe it does. Yeah, yeah, stupid. But

1163
00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 1: like I wouldn't Like, if there's this real world, I'd

1164
00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 1: be Batman for sure, like have all those cool gadgets,

1165
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 1: be a billionaire. But if like we're not talking about

1166
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:19,120
Speaker 1: real world, why wouldn't you want to fly? Like, oh,

1167
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:21,839
Speaker 1: I'll take the private jet instead. Guess what all all

1168
00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:23,640
Speaker 1: bat all Superman has to do is just charge a

1169
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:26,320
Speaker 1: little bit of cash for his efforts. Guess what, who's

1170
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:29,040
Speaker 1: a billionaire now, Superman. Oh I don't need the jet.

1171
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:31,799
Speaker 1: I'll just fly over there or the flash. I'll just

1172
00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 1: run and not be winded. Oh see, that's exhausting. I

1173
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:37,279
Speaker 1: will not do that. I would never be a running superhero.

1174
00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 1: Get out of here, not interested incredible, that's like on

1175
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:44,480
Speaker 1: the ice. Oh i'd do that. Yeah, so you're going,

1176
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:47,120
Speaker 1: you're going, Superman, that's your I don't know what i'd be.

1177
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:51,400
Speaker 1: I'm just saying the Batman ideas dumb guys, I don't

1178
00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:53,879
Speaker 1: I don't think I don't like this. My answer would

1179
00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:55,600
Speaker 1: probably be dumb too. But like everyone who's like, oh,

1180
00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:57,359
Speaker 1: I totally take thatman of a Superman and like you're

1181
00:56:57,400 --> 00:57:01,680
Speaker 1: an idiot just because you're that suit. He gets the cave,

1182
00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:05,359
Speaker 1: he gets a built in sidekick. That's great, that's great,

1183
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:07,080
Speaker 1: But like Superman can get all those things too, if

1184
00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:09,960
Speaker 1: he just went about business a little bit differently, like, Okay, hey,

1185
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:12,040
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be a news reporter, guys. Instead,

1186
00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:13,760
Speaker 1: I'm just going to charge a little bit of money

1187
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:17,040
Speaker 1: for being a superhero. Hey, I save your kid, give

1188
00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:19,840
Speaker 1: me a one hundred thous dollars. Okay, hey, oh this

1189
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,560
Speaker 1: building's falling down. I'll save the CEO. Give me a

1190
00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:24,920
Speaker 1: million dollars. See if this is starting to sound like

1191
00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:27,160
Speaker 1: some shady business sings to me. If you want to

1192
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 1: be a part of one of the points you've mentioned

1193
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 1: was you want to be a millionaire, that maker that

1194
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:33,640
Speaker 1: I make you make, that fun of skills, a certain

1195
00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:37,720
Speaker 1: set of skills that no one else has, that would

1196
00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:41,200
Speaker 1: literally like people would pay you to do. And so

1197
00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:45,040
Speaker 1: like his choice is to be a reporter like Bud Well, here.

1198
00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:47,280
Speaker 1: You got half of it right, Superheroes. That half he

1199
00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:49,680
Speaker 1: got right. Other reporter, I don't know what's going on, Like,

1200
00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:51,400
Speaker 1: why did you choose to do that? You get six

1201
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:53,960
Speaker 1: months into this thing and you've got sponsors all over

1202
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 1: your suit, and that's really tacky. And you've got a

1203
00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:00,240
Speaker 1: list of things that you fly into Walmart to get

1204
00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:02,720
Speaker 1: people stuck. Wearing a rubber suit fighting crime and rubber

1205
00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:05,080
Speaker 1: sit all day is gonna be tacky regardless whether you

1206
00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:06,400
Speaker 1: put on it. I don't care if there's a Fig

1207
00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:08,240
Speaker 1: Newtans thing across my chest, if it may see a

1208
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:10,240
Speaker 1: little paper. I'm not saying I would do it. I'm saying, like,

1209
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 1: if you want to match up with Batman, like I'm Batman, Okay,

1210
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,400
Speaker 1: well I'm Superman and I also have a plane because

1211
00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:20,320
Speaker 1: I charged the Fig Newtans for this. No, I have

1212
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 1: a cat. I think you're a little you're selling out

1213
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:26,400
Speaker 1: just a little bit. I'm not Batman or Superman. I'm

1214
00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:27,920
Speaker 1: not selling out anything. I'm just saying this is the

1215
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,439
Speaker 1: way to go about it. It's just a faulty business. Yeah,

1216
00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:32,400
Speaker 1: that's the easiest way to get away with anything. It's like,

1217
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do this but here's a way to do it.

1218
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 1: How I would do it. Yeah, this is how somebody

1219
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,440
Speaker 1: could do it. Oh my goodness. So you'd be you'd

1220
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:41,040
Speaker 1: be Batman. Of all the superheroes you could be, I

1221
00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 1: would be Batman. What was a question you're gonna asking about?

1222
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 1: The offensive line? Sorry? I oh? Um. The fact that

1223
00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:50,480
Speaker 1: you guys are genuinely friends, you actually do things together.

1224
00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:52,960
Speaker 1: It seems like you enjoy hanging out with each other

1225
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,680
Speaker 1: and doing things together. True. That's got to be rare

1226
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:57,320
Speaker 1: for a locker room, right. I mean you all just

1227
00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:00,760
Speaker 1: kind of fell into this place and magically you're friends. Yeah.

1228
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 1: I think I think it worked out. We have a

1229
00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:06,280
Speaker 1: lot of um, different personalities which you'd go two ways,

1230
00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:08,280
Speaker 1: you'd go really really bad or really really good, And

1231
00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:10,920
Speaker 1: I think in this situation it's gone really really good. Um.

1232
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 1: You know you have the southern boy Ben, who's like

1233
00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:18,080
Speaker 1: he's just a funny guy. Jack's from the Midwest, Dennis

1234
00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 1: is from the Midwest, Spain's from West Virginia. Of all places, Um,

1235
00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 1: Josh is from Ohio, and I'm from Arizona. It's like

1236
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:25,400
Speaker 1: we're kind of like all over the place and then

1237
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:29,240
Speaker 1: put us into one spot and like somehow we just click.

1238
00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:31,640
Speaker 1: It just works out, and so it's fun to play

1239
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 1: next to guys you care about, I think, but I

1240
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:34,720
Speaker 1: think that's a really cool thing with this team, is

1241
00:59:34,760 --> 00:59:38,320
Speaker 1: like I care about all these guys, Like obviously these

1242
00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:39,880
Speaker 1: guys I like more than other guys, because that's just

1243
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:41,880
Speaker 1: how it works into the business world when you're own

1244
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,160
Speaker 1: a team, like I'm not gonna sit here in line

1245
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, everybody's the best, Like no, like I

1246
00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:48,840
Speaker 1: do love these guys. Um, some guys out hang other

1247
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 1: more than others, but neither's just say. Um that the

1248
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:57,280
Speaker 1: old line. I think that camaraderie, that group, that chemistry,

1249
00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:59,720
Speaker 1: we got it. Um, it's done really well for us

1250
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:01,800
Speaker 1: in less a couple of years. And obviously, like there's

1251
01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,360
Speaker 1: so many things to grow on and do better. I

1252
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 1: just think that we've been doing this guy's limit for us.

1253
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:09,440
Speaker 1: We could we could really thrive in this offense that

1254
01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:11,560
Speaker 1: we're putting together right now. And you know, it kind

1255
01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:13,960
Speaker 1: of that cliche line when you're when you're an offensive

1256
01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:16,120
Speaker 1: line coach talking to an old line saying, you know,

1257
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:17,920
Speaker 1: it starts and ends with us. So it kind of

1258
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 1: it really really does, Like if we can't protect the

1259
01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:21,320
Speaker 1: receives are gonna get the ball, and if we can't

1260
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:24,120
Speaker 1: block those running backs are gonna get yards. So it

1261
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:25,800
Speaker 1: does starting in with us, and I think these guys

1262
01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:28,920
Speaker 1: take their job very seriously. One of the things that

1263
01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 1: I get asked about the most is when we are

1264
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:34,200
Speaker 1: going to do something together again. I think, you know what,

1265
01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:36,120
Speaker 1: the thing about the radio show was really fun, Like

1266
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 1: I had a good time. Like there were definitely times

1267
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:38,920
Speaker 1: I was driving and I was like, God, I do

1268
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 1: not want to do this this week. I'd much rather

1269
01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:45,560
Speaker 1: go home and do nothing. But no, if you guys

1270
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:47,600
Speaker 1: ever want me on the show again, this is fun.

1271
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:50,640
Speaker 1: So I would absolutely absolutely do this again. But as

1272
01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:53,960
Speaker 1: far as having my own show, I just it's probably

1273
01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:56,840
Speaker 1: not gonna happen because during the season, especially during the season,

1274
01:00:57,160 --> 01:00:59,480
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm like, I'm just locked in now, right.

1275
01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:01,720
Speaker 1: I had so many other things to focus on than

1276
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:04,480
Speaker 1: than telling bad jokes for an hour. But you're really

1277
01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:06,640
Speaker 1: good at telling bad jokes, thank you. But it really

1278
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:08,880
Speaker 1: it's fun to have you here. And we now have

1279
01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:11,840
Speaker 1: on tape that you are planning on coming back. I

1280
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:13,760
Speaker 1: said I would come back. I'm not planning. No, it

1281
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:16,160
Speaker 1: sounded like you were planning on it. That sounded really

1282
01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:20,480
Speaker 1: set in stone, so we'll follow up with you later.

1283
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:24,200
Speaker 1: Sounds good. Wow. How do you feel, Mike? That was

1284
01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 1: a ride. I feel like I just got off the

1285
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:29,920
Speaker 1: roller coaster at whatever theme park you want to name. Oh, absolutely,

1286
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:32,479
Speaker 1: we covered it all. Unbelievable. Yeah, well that was great,

1287
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:35,080
Speaker 1: so fun and thanks to Taito to one for doing it.

01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:44,320
Speaker 1: to break down how this draft is going to play

1291
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:48,640
Speaker 1: out in terms of what we think different teams are

1292
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:50,880
Speaker 1: going to do and how it may affect the Titans.
