1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Obviously, the topic of conversation yesterday was the quarterback switch. Um.

2
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 1: You know, I talked to all the parties involved yesterday morning,

3
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: and then they quickly got back to work and did

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: Monday things, um, excuse me, Tuesday things where they were

5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,599
Speaker 1: getting ready for the week, and so we have a

6
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 1: switching rolls. But it should come as no surprise to

7
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 1: anybody that that's been a great relationship since the day

8
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: we drafted Daniel. They've both helped each other, They're both

9
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: preparing to play if they have to play, and they

10
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,919
Speaker 1: both assist each other whoever the one is playing. And

11
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 1: I think that's what we can expect from Eli. Uh.

12
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 1: You know when you're when you're talking about um people

13
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: and emotions and those conversations. I'm gonna keep that between

14
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: me certainly an Eli, Um, you can go back on

15
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: any pressure I've done, and you know, find the words

16
00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: that I've said about him all along and that hasn't changed.

17
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: So that's where we're at. Daniels our starter. ELI will

18
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: back them up and we're moving forward. So with that,

19
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: I'll take your questions that Daniel Jones is the better

20
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 1: quarterback right now. Daniel Jones is ready to play and

21
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: we're going with him. Yes. And the reason I say

22
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 1: that is because we do everything we can to win

23
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: football games, and at this point we feel like he's

24
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: the guy we want to move forward with. When did

25
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,680
Speaker 1: you come to that decision? And what what? What? What

26
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 1: did you? Factor is? I've been thinking about all this,

27
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,559
Speaker 1: you know, I think about all this stuff all the time.

28
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,639
Speaker 1: But when the game was over, you know, and again

29
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 1: it's it's not all about Eli, It's about there. There's

30
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: other factors involved, you know, our team, where we're at

31
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: and moving forward. But you know, certainly the most of

32
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: the thought for me, um happened after the game. What

33
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: makes now the right time? Because there's certainly a school

34
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: about that if you brought Eli Manny back and you

35
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: paid live and he give me the starting quarterback, that

36
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: two games isn't enough of a window type. You know what,

37
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: I don't I don't see that. I don't understand that narrative,

38
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: because you know, Daniel Jones is going to have the

39
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:17,519
Speaker 1: benefit of to start here fourteen games of a guy

40
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: that's done it. I mean, this guy is what a

41
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: giant exemplifies, not only as a player but as a person,

42
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: and he's going to have the benefit of this guy's

43
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: assistance as we go through it. So my gut told

44
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: me it was the right time. But that narrative that

45
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,519
Speaker 1: you don't bring Eli back, you know, I think that's

46
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: just something for us all to talk about. Pat who

47
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 1: had to sign off from them on this decision. Well,

48
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: I certainly made the decision, and I had the conversation

49
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,839
Speaker 1: with all the parties involved, um and at some point

50
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: they said are you sure? And I said, yeah, I'm sure.

51
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: Dave and John absolutely you don't. You don't do these

52
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: things without talking to the people that you just mentioned

53
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 1: and Steve and so do you believe that the that

54
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 1: the move could jump start this football team? Listen, we're

55
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: trying to win a football game, and we feel like

56
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: along the way here Daniel Jones has showed us that

57
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: when he gets his opportunities, gonna play well. And that's

58
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,959
Speaker 1: what that's where we're at. Obviously, you guys drafted him six,

59
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: so you you liked him a lot, But did anything

60
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: you do from the day you drafted him until I

61
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: guess yesterday in your mind saying you know what, this

62
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: is faster, that he's more ready than maybe I thought that.

63
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: You know, we can put him in week three as

64
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: opposed to you know, waiting longer. Well, we're gonna see.

65
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: I mean, he's gonna play in his first regular season

66
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: game Sunday against Tampa at four o'clock, and so we'll see.

67
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: But to this point, I think it's safe to say

68
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: in our minds he's checked off all the boxes and

69
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: everything that we've asked him to do. Um, And so

70
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: we'll get him ready to play, put a plan together

71
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: that he can utilize, and we'll go to work. The

72
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: best quarterback, David the best chance to win. You said

73
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: that all Son or you said that right now? You

74
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: think Daniel was that guy? Um? What changed from you

75
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: know a week for the preseason two Tuesday that Jones

76
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: jumped Eli? What did you see that made this? I

77
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: think it's just was my gut that was time to

78
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: make that move. I think when you draft a guy

79
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 1: like you know, when you draft a guy like we

80
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 1: did at some point and that was part of you know,

81
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: that was part of my conversation. At some point this

82
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: was going to happen, and I just felt like this

83
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: was the time fully expect Eli to be with this

84
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: organization through the end of the season. There have been

85
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: some speculation that maybe he would. What are your thoughts

86
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: on it? Based on what I heard yesterday and based

87
00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: on what I saw today, he's doing everything in his

88
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: power to be ready to play if he has to

89
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 1: go in, And he's doing everything in his power to

90
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: help Daniel get get ready. And I don't foresee anything

91
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: that would make me think he won't be here. Usually

92
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: when the team goes to a younger quarterback, they try

93
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: to trim the play buff a little bit. In this case,

94
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: this day, you will open up things that maybe you

95
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 1: weren't able to touch with you because no, I think

96
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: there's certain plays and again, you you try to run

97
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: plays against the team you're gonna face. Um, you know,

98
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: we did some things against Buffalo that we weren't be

99
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: able to we didn't take full advantage of that would

100
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 1: have helped us win that football game. Um, every play

101
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: that goes in, you know, the quarterback that's running that

102
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,919
Speaker 1: play has a little different interpretation of it, and his

103
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 1: eyes will go somewhere place, sometimes slower quicker than others.

104
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: And so uh, to answer your question, he's got the

105
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: ability to run our full offense pretty much the same. Yeah,

106
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: I mean it should look the same. I mean schematically,

107
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 1: I'll let the changes in tactics reveal themselves, so to speak. Um,

108
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: But we want to get more we want to want

109
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: to score more points, and I think that's what we're

110
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 1: looking for looking for We're looking for better results. If

111
00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 1: that's Sair. I understand your day to day we week.

112
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: You're the head coach of this football team. But in

113
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: terms of speaking with Eli yesterday, were you at all

114
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 1: struck by the weightiness of that moment of what he

115
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 1: has been here, what he has represented here, and that

116
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: he may have taken his final snap at least as

117
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 1: a starting quarterback for this organization. Yeah, I'm well aware

118
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: of all that, and you know, but those were you know,

119
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 1: we were two guys talking. They had a good relationship,

120
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: you know, and I think, you know, I've said it

121
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 1: all along. You know, Eli is closer to forty than

122
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: he is twenty, you know, Um, And so that's how

123
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 1: it all started. I sort of knew what I wanted

124
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: to say when he walked in yesterday morning, but it

125
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: kind of changed on the you know, changed on the

126
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: run for me because just the natural nous of two

127
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: people talking and he quickly left and got to work

128
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 1: doing Tuesday things and so, UM, that's just the way

129
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: it goes more emotional than you during the conversation. I

130
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: think it was equal. You've also said that in the

131
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: past that you thought he had years remaining. Um, has

132
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 1: anything you've seen these first two weeks changed your thought

133
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: on if he does stud he wants to play, how

134
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: long he can play? Yeah, I think he can play

135
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: in this league. But you know, as as i've as

136
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: as I did yesterday, we're making a change here for

137
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: us moving forward. Other things that you have seen in practice,

138
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 1: you know, we don't get the benefit of scene practice

139
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: now and from you, in your coach's eyes, see from

140
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: Daniel that convinces you that he can make this transition, absolutely,

141
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: because the bulk of his work, in our eyes, happens

142
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: behind the scenes, just like the bulk of all of

143
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 1: our work happens behind the scenes. You know, you know,

144
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: when I walked to the stadium at whatever time on Sunday, right,

145
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know what it is. Two hours

146
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: or three hours before the game. I was still here

147
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 1: at the building at five thirty drinking coffee. So that's

148
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: just an example of what we do is really behind

149
00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: the scenes. And I think that's what we are um

150
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: doing as coaches and as players, and then we evaluate it.

151
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: We put the guys out there and we go play.

152
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 1: Do you think do you think having on the headsets

153
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: in Tampa on Sunday, you know with you and you

154
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: know helping Daniel will be a uniquely um different advantage

155
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: because not many sixteen year quarterbacks are on the headsets

156
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: and regular season games like that we've started last week. Yeah,

157
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: I think it's it's terrific. Um. I'm trying to answer

158
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 1: your question because I don't see the awkwardness to that

159
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 1: or the advantage of the disadvantage. I see here, here's

160
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: a guy that knows what he's doing, knows our offense,

161
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: and if we have one ankle injuries in there, so

162
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: it's just a matter of and then when Daniel comes off,

163
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: they're going to discuss what's happened as we move forward,

164
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: just like we would normally do. You can give a

165
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: different perspective and Alex Tanning both equally as good. I've

166
00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: always been down conscious of the locker room, absolute living.

167
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: What kind of message you said did you separate from

168
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks have to talk to the team in generalist

169
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: to why you were making the move, and can you

170
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: share with with us why you I assume you were

171
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 1: confident that they would embrace Daniel the same way they

172
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: embrace the In some ways this decision was separate, but

173
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: in many ways it was connected. And the reason I

174
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 1: say that is we're all connected and what happens, and

175
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: we haven't done anything well enough to win the first

176
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 1: two games. So they're well aware of the fact that

177
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: everybody in the room has to do what they do better.

178
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: So yes, I did have that conversation with them. You

179
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: feel like this team believes the same as you do

180
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: that you are moving forward, but Daniel to win a

181
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: football game, that this isn't thrown up a flag and

182
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 1: saying we're on to absolutely. I again, that's that's that's

183
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: a narrative that I don't understand. You know, we're onto

184
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 1: playing Tampa Bay. I don't want to steal somebody else's phrase,

185
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: but we're onto playing Tampa Bay and that's where our

186
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 1: focuses in the two thousand nineteen season, that's where we're at.

187
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,479
Speaker 1: We all realize there's a lot of football left to play,

188
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: and you can see the uncertainty that a team faces

189
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 1: each week, and you a little juice. You win a

190
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: football game, who knows what's going to happen. And what

191
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: do you say to the notion that that some of

192
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: your form something this organization's form. Players have raised at

193
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: least that Eli is being scapegoated for problems in the

194
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: first two games that really weren't useful. The defense, we've

195
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: had shortcomings, that you were short of receiver. What do

196
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: you say to the notion that this is an escape? Good? Well,

197
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: I think I just answered that notion when I when

198
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: I talked, when I spoke to arts question, that none

199
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: of us have done what we need to do to

200
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,319
Speaker 1: win two games. So that's what I would say about

201
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: that notion. I don't believe in the scapegoat thing. Put

202
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: that was halftime adjustments. You adjust as you Oh, how

203
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: difficult did Daniel make the decision going into the regular season,

204
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 1: because obviously what he did in the preseason. Was there

205
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: ever a thought that you know, this kid is ready

206
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 1: now or what? Did you just have to see something

207
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,319
Speaker 1: in the first couple of weeks. Well, I'm just gonna

208
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: go back to what I said all along, and I

209
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: believe my words and some folks didn't that Eli was

210
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 1: our starter and we were moving forward, getting Daniel ready

211
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,319
Speaker 1: to play, and that's how that's how we started the

212
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: year with the idea that we were going to go

213
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: out and win our first two games. It's just that simple.

214
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: By now everybody should understand. I try to keep these

215
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: kind of things simple. I think trying to confuse the

216
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 1: issues here is you know, not good. What should the

217
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: fans expect from Daniel Jones? In your mind, he's a

218
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 1: young competitive guy that's going to fight, and I think

219
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 1: he's going to display the toughness, the skill and ability

220
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: that that we saw when we drafted him. Significant changes

221
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: your significant and is um not that? Not that I

222
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 1: know of um um generally speaking? Yeah, what were the

223
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: qualities or was there a moment where it clicked for

224
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: you when you told us Daniels ready? What did he

225
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: do that then tipped you to the point where you said, hey,

226
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: when we need him, he can go. What did he

227
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: do had we needed him in the first two games,

228
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: he could have gone. So I feel like he's ready

229
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: to go and everybody around him is going to do

230
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 1: what they can to support his efforts. It's Monday, did

231
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: you know? But out of respect for the principles, you

232
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: didn't tell us Monday, because Tuesday had become with the conversations.

233
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 1: You know, this is this is about respect too. You know,

234
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: I think and I hold this organization in high regard

235
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 1: and we're always about respect. And so where we were

236
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: we frowned sometimes is when um, you know, we're going

237
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:57,959
Speaker 1: to find a way to start winning games right and

238
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: earn the respect of winning. But behind the scenes were

239
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 1: about respect, and so I wanted to make sure I

240
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 1: went through this process the right way. And I'm gonna

241
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hang on that word
