1 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:08,879 Speaker 1: I didn't watch it. I was thinking about Philly bad 2 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: you expect from plays, I mean as rowdies can get. 3 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: You know, they got a passionate fan group, a fan base, 4 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: and you know it's gonna be it's gonna be an 5 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: electric environment and you spend nothing less. It's gonna be exciting. Uh, 6 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: you know, and the best team that can the team 7 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: that can execute best under pressure, is going to do 8 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: the best. So that's that's what you You go into 9 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,520 Speaker 1: these games thinking how different is the defense locally? Darby 10 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 1: and Mills back in there. I mean, they they got 11 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: a lot better, Uh, you know, veteran players that have 12 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: played in a lot of games. So um, you know, 13 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 1: it looks like they're getting better at the right time. 14 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: And they're a hungry team, world coached team. Um, it's 15 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: it's a team that you know, we have a little 16 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: history with what you still really don't know as much. 17 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: A lot of new players, a different year, and um, 18 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a it's gonna be a big challenge 19 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 1: in a little history. We guys, be glad when this 20 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: people will stop asking about that history that because we 21 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 1: can be behind you. You're looking forward to to that 22 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: no longer being part of the narrative. Uh yeah, I guess. 23 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:34,119 Speaker 1: Uh yeah. Have you noticed about nikkiel being a practice? 24 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: It's working hard, um, you know and doing what the 25 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: coaches asked me to do. So, I mean that's all 26 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: you could do. Especially a guy hasn't really done you know, 27 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,559 Speaker 1: hasn't really played that much. Um, so you know, it'd 28 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: be good to see if he gets a little opportunities 29 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: to see if you got out and uh, you know, 30 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: I look forward to seeing it. I mean, you gotta 31 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: ask coach on that. I'm not a talent evaluator on. 32 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: I'm just kind of worried about what I gotta do. 33 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: I mean, if we all individually try to improve ourselves, 34 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: the UNIUCH gets better. So, UM ask coach McDaniels that one. 35 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 1: How can you personally help hockey style on a field? Huh? 36 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: Have you ever been involved in a hockey style flight 37 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: on a football field? Uh? Yeah, like when I was 38 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: like nine in practice. But Sam Alapacte, yep, what did 39 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: you do? Uh you took care of me? Oh, Sam, 40 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: pretty we won super bowls that would city forty nine ers, baby. 41 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: But I'm thinking about the Philadelphia Eagles getting my mind 42 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 1: back to that. Um, you know, so that's where that's 43 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:54,079 Speaker 1: where the head is. I mean he you know, he's 44 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: doing well. Um, he's a veteran guy that's played in 45 00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: big games. He's a professionally prepared as hard. Practice is hard. 46 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: And when you have those types of things, UM, you 47 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: know you fit, you fit in this, this, this locker room, 48 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: and UM, it's good to have them. How hard is it? 49 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: Everybody talks about hard, how hard it is to get 50 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: Tom's truck for you kind of how hard was it? 51 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: And then when did you kind of clip with me? Um? 52 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's hard, um, And I don't you 53 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: know you get it through consistency and practice, Um, consistency 54 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: and games. Uh, and you're constantly earning it. It's it's 55 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: not something that you just get and then you keep 56 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: You have to constantly keep on working on your craft, 57 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: in your chemistry and knowing what you know the coaches want, 58 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: knowing what Tom wants, knowing where you need to be, 59 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: this that all those things are so many variables. I 60 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: think Mohammad is doing an unbelievable job. When you killed first, 61 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: came up by our Tom said, and you would benefit 62 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: from having you to someone to look to what can 63 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: what things can you do? What things have you done 64 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: to to kind of help? The easiest process for I 65 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: just go out and try to practice, prepare hard, um 66 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: and be available for questions and uh, and that's what 67 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: I do. I try to lead by example. Um and uh, 68 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: you know kind of have the open door policy. Has 69 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: he taken advantage of that opening? Yeah?
