We take times going from 36 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: Pitts to California. As soon as the schedules come out, 37 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: I'm highlighting schedules which one game we're going to and 38 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: so keeps me on my toes. Yeah, when you talk 39 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: about the coordination of everything. I mean, how much do 40 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: you do in a given week to make sure everyone's 41 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: kind of situated where they need to be on game day? 42 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: I do a lot. Well. I work a full time job, 43 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: first of all, and then so when I already have 44 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: my schedule set so I know that you know which 45 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: place we're going, and then I find out who I 46 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: was going, I make all the flights, make car services, 47 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: I make all the hotel reservations and everything, and then 48 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: I send everybody confirmations, I download their tickets onto my 49 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: wallet on my iPhone, send them all off. So I'm 50 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: so busy. I love when football season times, but I'm 51 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: also glad whenever it go because then you can you 52 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 1: kind of go back to normal too. Yes, And I 53 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 1: wonder if does all the NFL moms go through everything 54 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: that I go through. That's a great question. We'll have 55 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,799 Speaker 1: to get some more NFL moms on here and talk 56 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: to them and ask them, So what the what kids? 57 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: You know they had three of them, so I know 58 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: she's probably here, there and everywhere, and she don't know 59 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: you know which one am I going to. What does 60 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 1: the game of football mean to your family? Um? I 61 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: mean it means special times, making memories and um, you know, 62 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: it's just that it brings family together, you know, and 63 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: it's brought more places where we go on vacations that 64 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: you know, where we could afford more things. So but um, 65 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: I mean we've the boys have been a football since 66 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: they were seven. So my daughters they kind of feel 67 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: like they got put on the back burner, but they 68 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: really didn't. I mean they you know, they get to 69 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: go every syce that we go. Um, they were cheerleaders 70 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: for the boys whenever they were younger and then the 71 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: Little League. So but I mean it's just Stanley times 72 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: spending time together. We have a good time. Yeah. Mike 73 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: has told me he and his brother oh everything to 74 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: their sisters because they, like you said, were the cheerleaders. 75 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: They were going to every game, and he goes, we 76 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: just love them so much for all their support that 77 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: they've given us too. Yeah. Definitely. So they're twins obviously, 78 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: But how are they similar and how are they different? Um? 79 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: They like everything the same. They loved chicken and mac 80 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: gronnie and cheese and stuff like every food they like 81 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: the same. Um, And it's it's really weird because they 82 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: really aren't so much alike. Yeah, whenever they were younger, 83 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: Michael was more of the one that was kind of 84 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: like the leader. He kind of took role. And then 85 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: whenever they got older, Mark Keiths was like, you know, 86 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: he spoke, he did it speaking and everything. So, but 87 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: they really are really alike. And even the girlfriends, you know, 88 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: they noticed like how similar they are. You know, there's 89 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: not really a difference because everything that they liked they 90 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: like a like. So Mike told me it was very 91 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: hard with the girlfriends sometimes because you'd always have to 92 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: have his brother's opinion on things too, versus just a 93 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: girlfriend's opinion, right, And I mean that's the same way 94 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: with me. I'm like, am I gonna get the phone call? 95 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: You gotta call your brother friend? Which was I'm the 96 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: I'm the mother. The buck stops here. Yeah, but no, 97 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 1: they I mean, they depend on each other a lot, so, 98 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, and they have to get there, okay. So 99 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: it's a good though that they are that close, you know, 100 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: and they're not fighting with each other, you know, they 101 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: love each other. When did you realize that your son's 102 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: had the talent to essentially make it to the next level. 103 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: I really, you know, I knew about football, but I 104 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: just ketched in the back of my mind, you know, like, 105 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: because when they got to tattoos, oh my gosh, I 106 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,239 Speaker 1: was just like yes, and I was like, oh my gosh. 107 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,239 Speaker 1: You know, I want you to make it to the NFL. 108 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: I know that's your dream, But why would you go 109 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: get tattoos all down your arm? And we don't know 110 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: if you're gonna make it to the NFL. You know, 111 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: what kind of job are you gonna get, you know, 112 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: And so I really, I just I just paid a 113 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: lot and I said, god, you know, it's it's meant 114 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: to be. It's meant to be. So I didn't know. 115 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: I knew about football, but I didn't know, Oh he's 116 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 1: good enough for he's gonna make it to the next level, 117 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: you know. So whenever they made it to the next level, 118 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: that's when Ryan knew. So, I mean I heard people, 119 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: you know, people would tell me stuff, and I'm like, 120 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna wait, it's gonna happen. If it's gonna happen, 121 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: let's chat tattoos for a second. Because Mike did tell 122 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: me you were, like you said, very apprehensive when you 123 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: saw them for the first time. Though he said his 124 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: first tattoo did have your name in it, But what 125 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: was your reaction when you when you did see it? 126 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: It was not a really good reaction. I was I 127 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: didn't expect it to be that big. Oh my gosh, 128 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: did you see it? It's humongous. And I'm like, and 129 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: so he put Lisa up there, and I'm like, that's 130 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: not gonna work. I mean, you're just putting my name 131 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: up there. Did not take away how big that thing is. 132 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: Like it took his whole arm at the top. And 133 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my gosh, Michael, why would you do that? 134 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 1: And he's like, your name's on there. I'm like, okay, 135 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: but I mean it just kind of took my breathway 136 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: because I was just like, oh my god, what would 137 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: they I don't know what they were thinking, and like 138 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: you can't take those tattoos away. So yeah, but I 139 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 1: mean we're kind of used to the tattoos now. Yeah. 140 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: I don't think that they have a more room on them. Yeah, 141 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: I understand that. Yeah, he did do a little um 142 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: behind the ink thing and that was very sweet. Me 143 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: and his dad's pictures on there.

Now let's get 168 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: back to the interview with Lisa Webster, presented by Mercury Insurance. 169 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: Mike had told me growing up that you guys as 170 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: a family were a huge Florida State family, and the 171 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: boys had committed to Florida State but switched to Florida. 172 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,319 Speaker 1: He said that caused a little bit of a family rift. 173 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: But what do you remember from that, well, I mean 174 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: it was Florida States the whole time. And then Chris 175 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: Rainey he came to live with us, He came to 176 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: spend the night, and then eventually he just didn't. He 177 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: never left my house. But he was a big Florida fan. 178 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 1: So he talked to boys into going to want to camp. 179 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 1: And so I mean I was okay with it. I mean, 180 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: it's football, so there whatever makes them happy. And then 181 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: I was at work and then the boys called it. 182 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: It's like mom, were come in to Florida, and I said, 183 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: you can't do that, Like you've already told these people. 184 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: You know, you can't go back on your word. We 185 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 1: already said we're going to go to Florida State. This 186 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: is the way it's going to be. He's like, no, Mom, like, 187 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna go to Florida. I mean, like, we need 188 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: you and dad to take off work and come up here. 189 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: And so we went up there and Irban minded them. 190 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 1: They were great coach to Dazzio. I mean, they did 191 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: their homework, they knew who, they knew us by the 192 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: first thing, you know, they knew everything about the boys, 193 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: and so I mean what, I'm glad that they really 194 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: did go to us because it was closer for me 195 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: to get to them. But everybody just kind of switched over. 196 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: Mine and one daughter, she's the only one that still 197 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 1: kind of likes Florida State. And her son's eight years 198 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: old and he loves football. He's probably going to be 199 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: about six foot seven, and so she's like, you're going 200 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: to Florida State. He was like, no, I'm going to 201 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: the Gators. So so she's like, no, Michael, you can't 202 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: follow behind Michael Marquis. You're gonna be a Florida State. 203 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: So yeah, you know, he says he's gonna be a Gator. 204 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, he told me it actually caused the biggest 205 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: riff with the sisters that they didn't talk to them 206 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 1: for a little bit. Oh yeah, because they were being 207 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: Florida State fans. And I don't even know why, because 208 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: I mean they're not into football like that, you know, 209 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: they support the boys, but I guess they just they 210 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: had SUN going to all the games up there that 211 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 1: we went to in a given NFL season, How many 212 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: games do you and your family attend for each Sun 213 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: for each son. Yeah, um, we go to like six 214 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: maybe seven for each son, and then was the playoffs. 215 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: I don't count those, but a regular season it six 216 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: to seven.

It's really going to work out 226 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: this weekend because obviously the Steelers and Chargers are playing 227 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 1: each other. I know that both of your sons teams 228 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 1: played against each other last year on Sunday Night Football. 229 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: But when they get the chance to play against each other, 230 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: what are those games like from your perspective? From my perspective, 231 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: is stressful because I have so many people that I 232 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: have to get prepared for the game. Yes, and and 233 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: so when they was in Pittsburgh, I was so strayed. 234 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: I don't care who wins the game, as long as 235 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: everybody comes out healthy. I was going to ask you, 236 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: you have to stay neutral, right, you can't really pick 237 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: a side, right, And so you know, when the Steelers 238 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: has evolved, we're yelling and those Steelers. When when the 239 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: Chargers have it, we're yelling for the Chargers. And so, 240 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: I mean, it really doesn't matter to me. I just 241 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: want everybody to come out healthy. I don't want anybody 242 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: hurt in the game. Yeah. Yeah, but we were at 243 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: we were in Pittsburgh when the game came, and my 244 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: daughter and I were sitting in the front row. And 245 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: by that time, it's like, I think we were on 246 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: the third quarter or something, and I was stressed because 247 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: I've finally got everybody with her.
