44
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: you might be stuck kind of proms. Next question would

45
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:57,519
Speaker 1: be Mike Greece, Thanks Stacy, congratulations one. So I'm sure

46
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 1: this is a mighty big honor. I remember the conference

47
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: call about this time of the year, Um, when you

48
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: first came from Patriots and you were trying to make

49
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 1: your impression that coming from a different situation, I believe

50
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,639
Speaker 1: with the Ravens. Now you're in a situation and having

51
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: played here many years, how much do you think your

52
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: success has been part of you know, the Patriots system

53
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: and the coaching. Well, you know, success comes from pretty

54
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 1: much what you put in on it, you know. Um,

55
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: I would say that the Patriots gave me the the

56
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: opportunities to pretty sure showcase my talent and again an

57
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: opportunity to sprout my wings more. Um. But all that's

58
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: being said, you're only as good as what you put

59
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: If you're not going to put in the workers, you're

60
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: not going to put in the time to get better

61
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: into a constantly approve so you're really not going to

62
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 1: accomplish your goals and dreams. And being with the Patriots,

63
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: what they do is see that to see the goal

64
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: they push it, and that's what what you want to

65
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: but you want to be pushed harder and harder. But

66
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: they understand the aspect of how you play and how

67
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: do you you're developing, and they work with that. They

68
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: don't work around and they work with you to make

69
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: sure you truly um able to reach your full potential

70
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 1: and meet joining I felt like I joined up the

71
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,039
Speaker 1: first time in my career. I felt like I said

72
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 1: the game of the opportunity to just strong my When

73
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 1: you did, they get an opportunity to continue to grow

74
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: as I wanted to grow as a player and then

75
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: as a teammate and a leader. UM on a field

76
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: and how do you think you've grown as a player?

77
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: They can Following with Lawrence, well, you know, I feel

78
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: like every years in New ChIL you know, um, if

79
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,559
Speaker 1: you're not getting better, you're pretty much out the league.

80
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: That doesn't be honest, That's just how it so consistently

81
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 1: trying to get better, consistent pushing yourself. I feel like

82
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: that's what I'm doing is getting better at learning the

83
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: game more and more. If you can never stop and

84
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 1: learning this game, you're always going to learn something new

85
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: every single year. This is what aspect of the game.

86
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: Are you're going to learn different this year? It's gonna

87
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: ask you. And if you're choosing to fix the mistakes

88
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: that you see on films on the previous year, over

89
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 1: five years ago that continue to come up. That's why

90
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: I feel like I've been able to do if to

91
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: take the coaching is given to me and not overthinking, like, well,

92
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: I know what I'm doing now. I'm always trying to

93
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: get better to some way, somehow, So I want to

94
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 1: think of coaching and I'm able to do that. In

104
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: I like it, Lawrence. And this our decade team. Vince

105
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: Willfork is the other defensive tackle and uh, he had

106
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: quite a career. I'm curious what your connection if any

107
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 1: connection is with him, you know, like I must to

108
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: be named. Honestly, this is the player of his caliber,

109
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: what he was able to do. Um. The only time

110
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: I've talked to him really is when he came to

111
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: talk to the team, and you know, been around him

112
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: and listening to his stories and doing there. I went

113
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: to his retirement UM announcement, you know, just to get

114
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 1: a little bit more inspirational what he went through in

115
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 1: the league and what he had to say about his

116
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: retire But you know, other than that, you know, I

117
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: don't I wasn't here when he was here. I wish

118
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: I was here when he was playing with the Patriots.

119
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: I can learn a little bit more about the way

120
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: he approached the game and learned a little bit more

121
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: the way how he's studying the way he was able

122
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: to do it. Because a man that size and there

123
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: be that athletic and intelligence or something you just want

124
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: to learn from, you know. But other than that, like

125
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: I said, I just look at his game. When we

126
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: would look at old film, put up an old game

127
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: that Bill wants to watch it. We see how he's

128
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: able to move the pocket, and we see how he's

129
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: able to play those run dolls. And well, people might

130
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: not say it, but if you see that that man passions,

131
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: it's pretty unique because for some of his sides to

132
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: be able to move the way he does, Um, it's

133
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: pretty impressively. And Lauren's just to follow up, I apologize

134
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: if that was a repeat question I might have not

135
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: heard leading up to that. What the virtual has been

136
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: like for you guys? The virtual you're gonna ask Bill

137
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: about that. It's pretty good as you need you know,

138
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: it's um, it's one of those things what's going on

139
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: in the world today. It's it's the pandemic. It's crazy.

140
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: You know, it's a hard time for everybody. And we're

141
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: able to do virtual workouts, we're able to do virtual meeting,

142
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: and we're able to still find a new way to

143
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: continue to improve our crist And it's a it's a

144
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: different way of learning. You know, I was talking with somebody, Um,

145
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,959
Speaker 1: come days, it's a different way of learning, and it's

146
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: going to help pretty much help everybody in the aspect

147
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 1: of getting what you need to do the paper and

148
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: through words, so you might see it, you might hear

149
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,440
Speaker 1: it and be like, okay, maybe fully understanding, you can

150
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: ask a little bit more questions because you're in your

151
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,839
Speaker 1: comfort zone and when you're up at the facility around

152
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: and everybody else, you're moving your duds, watchings, you're doing

153
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: everything you might feel uncomfortable. But now we're not able

154
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: to do that. You hear more questions you as you

155
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: hear more things being UM said. That's trying to get

156
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: more detailed into it, not saying we weren't that. We

157
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: wasn't that detail, but you get to see it developing. UM.

158
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 1: And I truly think when the rookies come in and

159
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: they get this expirits, something that's different. UM, their murdering

160
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: curve is going to be there. But I feel like

161
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: we had the resources and we had the players UM

162
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: that are able to reach out and talk and help

163
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: them out. And it's going to help every single player

164
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 1: get a little bit more closer with the team and

165
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,839
Speaker 1: through this time because we don't have that interactional on

166
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: the field, so we don't have this more interaction on

167
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 1: the phone, the video chat and trying to get to

168
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: know each other. That one we're gonna pause just for

169
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: a second. I'll leave it to either Mic Contracting or

170
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: MinC Preefs. Might we pause for any We don't want

171
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: to ask the question, you know, Lawrence said Mike Petrolly

172
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: if you can hear me, Okay, all right, UM, just this,

173
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: How do you think playing for the Patriots evolves over

174
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: your career? How do I think playing for the Patriots

175
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 1: have a vall? Have they asked you to do different

176
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: things over the years, um, since you first got here

177
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: more things, different things. Well, you know, um, if you

178
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: follow my background, High Lick League and everything, I'm able

179
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: to play multiple positions, and I could say what the

180
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: Patriots maybe do improve those positions? Works? Um, they challenged

181
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: me to get uncomfortable, um, in certain positions. Well, I

182
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 1: know certain spots. I know, I'm like, hey, I'm really

183
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: good at this spot, but they you know what you're

184
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: really good at that this spot over here? Playing a

185
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: little bit more, no, pay a little bit more, this

186
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: more if develop your skills has definitely not that there.

187
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: So they push you to the limit where you're like,

188
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: I have to be uncomfortable to get comfortable. And knowing

189
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 1: that aspect, you get to see over the years the

190
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: development that while I'm able to move down the line

191
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: and be comfortable in every every position, and they're pushing

192
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: me and they're shocking me to be better and better

193
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: every day. Got me to the point where I'm able

194
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: to be comfortable no matter what hand I put down,

195
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: on what position a matter I am, and before it

196
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: might not have been that way. Like I'm comfortable here,

197
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna stick to this. But knowing the Patriots,

198
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: they want you to be good. It wants you always

199
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: be the better you because that's being better on a

200
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,199
Speaker 1: special team, being better in your position, being better in

201
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: a position you don't play, or learning something totally different,

202
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 1: being a multi using player. That's what they strive for

203
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 1: you to do. And that's the model. The more you

204
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,319
Speaker 1: can do, the better. And that's what everbody's able to

205
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: do on the team. If you look through the whole roster,

206
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: it's not one person only can play one position or

207
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: what aspect. Everybody on the roster would play multiple positions.

208
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: They can also play special teams in multiple positions. And

209
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 1: that's what we strive to be. To be a better

210
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: player and not just a single player, is to be

211
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: all around her. Great, thank you, Well, okay, we'll go

212
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: Jim McBride and then back to Mike, Greece and Lawrence

213
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,199
Speaker 1: just kind of paying off of Mike's questions, Um, the Patriots,

214
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: you can just wing a little. I'm wondering if was

215
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: that part of the conversation with Bill during the free

216
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: agent process that he envisioned that for you and you

217
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 1: envisioned that for yourself. Um, if you guys had a

218
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: conversation with Bill, well, you guys know how the conversation goes.

219
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 1: Pretty much, my my, what I came out of my visit. Um,

220
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: I sat with everybody, thought with Matne, Patricia, Brian Flores,

221
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: brim Dale and you all sad Ron the Wasson film.

222
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 1: You pull up the film at the rabers and put

223
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: the raibers the Patriots game and went over that the

224
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 1: whole game, Like what do you think? You know? We

225
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: did all that? Like coming down to speaking with Bill,

226
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: it was straight to the point Bill, how this is

227
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: where we value as a player and we're going to

228
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: get the best out of it. And pretty much that

229
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: was it. You know, it's a straight shooter, and that's

230
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 1: the best thing you hear about Bill. He's gonna tell

231
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: it the truth. You don't tell how it is. And

232
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: that's why you pretty much he was telling me, how

233
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: you come on this team, We're gonna make me better

234
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: we're going to push it. It's gonna make your own comfortable.

235
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: And when I first stepped in the door, I wasn't

236
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 1: perfect on the film, wasn't perfect in the system that

237
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 1: it was going. But I chose to get better every

238
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: day and they challenged me to sistently. So from the

239
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 1: first year to the second to last year, you can

240
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: see the improvement aspect of the game because they could.

241
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: They're never gonna let you be like, Okay, you're good here,

242
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: that's it. I always probably be like, well, you're good here,

243
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: Now let's get better. It looks like the last question,

244
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: um oh, we have two more questions, So go Mike

245
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: reach fall my tound screet. Lauren's just from the personal side. Quarantine,

246
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: What has it been like for you and the family

247
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 1: and any favorite activities you've sort of picked up for

248
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: anything like that? Well, quo, it's quarantine. You know. I

249
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: got a two year old. We had her in day,

250
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: think about that and gymnastics. Well that stopped. When I stopped,

251
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 1: she went crazy. She's a firecracker right now. About five

252
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: hours ago, yeah, about five hours ago, I'm over there

253
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 1: cleanups about the ground, and all of a sudden, she's

254
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: on the top of that. That is us though. I'm like, hey,

255
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, how'd you get up? No? But other than that,

256
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: you know, let's just enjoying the famite time, building this

257
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: ball with the kids. Um, we had a nightly walk

258
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 1: going for a while and my with having a blast.

259
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: I think the last time we did that was last

260
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 1: week and she stopped. I think we made it halfway.

261
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: She stopped, looked at me and she said, no, no,

262
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: that an't done. But done. We got to go back

263
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: home and I'm like, okay, put it on the shoulder's job.

264
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,560
Speaker 1: Other than that, you know, we we tried kite. The

265
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: kite didn't really go in the air, doesn't ever Saleum

266
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 1: the drone got lost over there playing with the drone

267
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: and flew away. I don't know where it went, and

268
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: it's fleu away and when it comes home. I got

269
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 1: a little little speedboat nice in the pool. But other

270
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: than that, I gotta playground in the backyard that we go,

271
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: we play on, we swing, we try to go down

272
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: to slide the hair and there play with the dogs.

273
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: But most likely it's just didn't enjoy awesome crash right now.

274
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: You know, we got a little keys old where we

275
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: let her go crazy. You're gonna try to build my

276
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: little house figure. And my wife tried to build her

277
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: little house figure and she gets all crazy. But other

278
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: than that, were singing a whole bunch of Majana and

279
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of aladding he loves the new Allidder.

280
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: So we're playing that to the point where we get

281
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: in the car and all your hearers um, he siri

282
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: playing a lodded soundtrack, and I'm like, all right, we're

283
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 1: gonna listen to Aladder and again. Um. But that's pretty

284
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: much it. That's a quarantine life for me, you know,

285
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 1: getting up in the morning, working out, coming coming back,

286
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: and it's just enjoying the family time and getting knowing

287
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: each other even more. Like everybody else could say, you're

288
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: getting know your family a little bit more because you're

289
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 1: pretty much not going out at home, going away at home,

290
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: staying at home and picking up stuff to do and

291
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 1: wash off the patio out of nowhere. I need to

292
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: wash this patio. You know, this is doing some chores.

293
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: The last question ian still you know one second, sorry

294
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: and try again. That's okay, this doesn't count as the

295
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 1: last question. But have you memorized all of the soundtracks yet,

296
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:07,199
Speaker 1: oh memory, No, but I know what track to put on.

00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,960

00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 1: is amazing things you never thought you'd get going on.

305
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,959
Speaker 1: Um My, my actual question here, you look at this

306
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,719

Speaker 1: brother's keeper to protected brought on the field. But you

321
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 1: always try to an aspect where you beat on the plane,

328
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,680

338
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,760

339
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: trying to improve your teammates as you practice throughout the week.

340
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,360
Speaker 1: It's going to only get better and better. But it's

341
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 1: not just the people that you see on that list,

342
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 1: it's the people that you don't hear about that practice.

343
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: The scout team. You know, you got to practice squad players,

344
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: if you got your coaches are always improve it because

345
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: they're doing something that most people don't see them do.

346
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:52,440
Speaker 1: And that's sharper than we're going against scout team every

347
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: single day and they're perfecting. They're watching another person's film

348
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 1: trying to imitate what they're doing before we get the

349
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: best look. We don't one Sunday and for them and

357
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: a lot of fights that don't get recognized, and a

358
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: lot of people there behind the scenes that help us

359
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 1: get where we're at. And that's the biggest thing that
