1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Hello, everyone, Welcome. It's the program that keeps you up

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: to date on your Houston Texans no matter where you

3
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: might be. Well, as long as you can listen to this,

4
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,119
Speaker 1: that is, because if you can't, then that would be

5
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,879
Speaker 1: very difficult, wouldn't it. I'm Mark Vandermayer. We're here at

6
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: the Hyundai Texans Radio studio at NRG Stadium along with

7
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: Deep Sudu and I haven't done a show with you

8
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,599
Speaker 1: for a while. How's it going, DP, It's going fantastic, Mark,

9
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: I know you and I just haven't been in studio

10
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:26,119
Speaker 1: at the same time for a few weeks now, and

11
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: you had the food Ruckers show last week. I was

12
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: jealous of that. I was jelly of that because I

13
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: was dinner. Yeah, because I wanted to go to food

14
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: Ruckers and see the peeps. You're gonna get plenty of

15
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: opportunities when the season starts, but a one hour show

16
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: goes really really quickly, Like during the season we do

17
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: the food Worker Texans Players Show and then we do

18
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 1: All Access. It was just all Access, but it was

19
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: me and John Harris. Flies By It flies By fans

20
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: were out there. Did you have a milk show? I

21
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: did not have a milk. What because it was only

22
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:51,959
Speaker 1: an hour. I think I can get through an hour

23
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 1: of radio without a milk. You broke tradition at food Ruckers.

24
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: Well you weren't there to drink most of it, right,

25
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: We always split those things and we will have our

26
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: Food Ruckers Texans players show this fall. By the way,

27
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 1: that is official. We don't have an official lineup yet,

28
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 1: but some of the people who were on last year,

29
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: let's just put it this way, have said they will

30
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: be back, including but not limited to a verbal from Whitney,

31
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 1: Merciless and DJ Reader. So, yeah, that'll be good, and

32
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: I'm sure a bunch of other guys. When you said

33
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: a list, I thought that's quite a lot of players,

34
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: because with all the injuries, we had a lot of standards. Oh,

35
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: you're right, that could really be anybody that is returning

36
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: for twenty eighteen. But that's fine. The injuries were such

37
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 1: a story and as everyone knows, or maybe you don't know,

38
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: but we've said it numerous times that the Texans used

39
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 1: a record seventy eight players last year and we were

40
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: going over there. We have a publication called the Yearbook.

41
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: It's basically a preseason pre season preview magazine, but it's

42
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: called the Yearbook because that's what the publisher wants. It's

43
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: a long story anyway, So we're going over articles this morning.

44
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: You know who gets what article, and every year it's

45
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: pretty much offense, Defense, draft and Bill O'Brien. Well, this year,

46
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna do an entire story on guys who were

47
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: hurt who are coming back, because there are a lot

48
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: of them, and it's not just the big three Watt,

49
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: Merciless and Watson. There are a ton of guys that

50
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: you might have forgot about that got hurt and their

51
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: contribution this year is going to be huge for this

52
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: football team. It might be your lengthiest feature in the year,

53
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 1: I think, so I have to start writing it immediately,

54
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: all right, So DP, let's do the hot reads as

55
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: we do during the regular season, sometimes not always during

56
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: the off season. But I think they have probably getting

57
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 1: fox board today after the golf tournament yesterday. Yeah, it's

58
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: been a busy week and rookies will begin arriving for

59
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: mini camp on Thursday. At the golf tournament yesterday, general

60
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 1: manager Brian gainesays he expects safety Justin Reid and outside

61
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: linebacker Peter Columbadi to be at camp because of these

62
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: new changes to the PAC twelve rules. So before a

63
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 1: rule change last October by the NFL all the PAC

64
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: twelve rookies, they had to wait until mid June before

65
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: they could start working with the pro teams that drafted them.

66
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: So anytime we drafted a PAC twelve player, we wouldn't

67
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: see them for working minicamps, wouldn't see them until maybe

68
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 1: towards the end of OTA's Saviors to a Field O

69
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: kind Yeah, they were definitely among those players. So now

70
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: schools like Stanford, which the Texans are afted these two

71
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: Stanford players, they're on a quarter system. Graduations still going

72
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: to happen a month later, but now the schools and

73
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 1: the PAC twelve are allowing these players to be able

74
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: to work out with the team and attend graduation, sort

75
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 1: of manage both at the same time not have to

76
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: say no to the NFL teams. I think it's great graduation.

77
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: It's great to get it in here early. Yeah, So

78
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: it's a unique thing that helps us now in terms

79
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: of the players being here when we need them to be,

80
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: but also if they have expectations that need to be

81
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: met in terms of their graduation timeline, as it relates

82
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: to the players from the PAC twelve where that's happened

83
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: in the past, but the compromise basically has been they

84
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: now have the ability to take care of their profession

85
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: and still go through and see their graduation, their ability

86
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: to graduate and to participate in that. So it's a

87
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: delicate bounce between both, but with the new rule it's

88
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: been able to accommodate both ends of it. It's such

89
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: an important part of mental never mind physical, but mental

90
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: installation of what the team is trying to do on

91
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: the field and the off field stuff too, because you

92
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: get to come here and meet with the people and

93
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: just get acclimated and that way when training camp arrives,

94
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: just sort of hit the ground running, if you will. Yeah,

95
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: you're not like three steps behind when you show for

96
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: training camp. With Xavier SuField being part of the old line,

97
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: like he showed up and I remember that was a

98
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: big story his rookie year, was that he had a

99
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 1: lot of catching up to do because he pretty much

100
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: missed most of the offseason workouts. So that'll be good

101
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: for these new draft draft players. It'll be great for

102
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: us to actually see them on the field earlier. And

103
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: I can't speak for the coaches, but I'm going to

104
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: predict here or just analyze it and say that this way,

105
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: you get to give them a good prescription for what

106
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 1: to do during that five week downtime between the mini

107
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: camp and the startup training camp, because they have to

108
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: work out, they have to get ready. It's not like, oh,

109
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: we're off to Cabo for five weeks and we're gonna

110
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: go eat. You know, you gotta hit training camp in shape,

111
00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: conditioning test day one pass it. So yeah, they got

112
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: to see them a little bit before, but now they

113
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: get to see them a lot, and I think it's

114
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 1: really going to help them during that five week off

115
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 1: offtime period, downtime period. I think it's going to be

116
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: a challenge for everybody, not just the rookies, what to

117
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: do during those five weeks. You've got a new head

118
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: strength and conditioning coach, you've got a sports performance program,

119
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: you've got a new team nutritionist, and everybody's sort of

120
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: learning the ropes of what's expected of them. And Brian

121
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 1: Gaye and Bill Brand they both talked about that yesterday.

122
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: Who they want. They want the new guys to be

123
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: acclimated to that. But I think it's it's the same

124
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: for the veteran guys. Even JJ Watt talked about it yesterday.

125
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 1: These are all things that they've they've got to learn

126
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: to adapt to. It's exciting but still new for them.

127
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 1: I know that you've talked about this on shows and

128
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: I have, and I think I mentioned it with Seth

129
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 1: and Mike that it's no joke. With the dining hall changes,

130
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: the cafeteria changes here, the food is definitely different. Now

131
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: I've not been in the cafeteria. This is bad on

132
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 1: my part. I stopped eating in the cafeteria a few

133
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: years because you bring in your own little, scientifically engineered food.

134
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 1: I don't need to eat like a three hundred pound

135
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: NFL player. I just don't. And I discovered that when

136
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: I started gaining weight. I don't see. To me, I

137
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: feel like, I guess this is inside baseball stuff. I'll

138
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: put that in air quotes because it's an actual football

139
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 1: stadium inside. Inside it's insider stuff here. But I always

140
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: feel like I can eat so healthy here no matter what,

141
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: because they have the salad bar. You just get a

142
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: piece of meat and some salad. You're good to go.

143
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: You could stay away from the carbs, but there are

144
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 1: a lot of carbs here if you choose to have them,

145
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: you know, and those look, you're right, three hundred pound

146
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,119
Speaker 1: offensive line, you need to have a lot of carbs.

147
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 1: They're gonna fill up on stuff. But the point is this,

148
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: we don't need all that. But now it's healthier. I

149
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: think it's health offerings are healthier because it's every everything's

150
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: trending towards nutrition, keeping your body and the most optimal

151
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,039
Speaker 1: condition to Shaun Watson even talked about it too, like

152
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: his nutrition coming back from an injury has to be

153
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: very different because you want to strengthen all the muscle

154
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 1: and the cartilage and everything. They're in Mark. I mean,

155
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: you probably have strong cartilage because you eat there anyway,

156
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: so I have strong cartilage. Yeah. And it wasn't like

157
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: it was fast food before, but it was definitely it's

158
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: definitely healthier now, I think. And Drew talked about going

159
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: to the Gauntlet in a way, when you walk through

160
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 1: the hallway in the morning, sometimes those guys are they're

161
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 1: working out in the weight room which is now called

162
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: the Sports Sports Performance thank you, and in the hallway

163
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: they light them all up and they have all these

164
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: hurdles apparatus items that they work with. Yeah, so it's

165
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: pretty cool stuff to see. We get to see a

166
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: lot of it. Luke Richardson obviously has a lot of experience.

167
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: He's got a Super Bowl ring. He knows what he's doing.

168
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: This is gonna be fun to watch. It's amazing. How

169
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: you think head strength and conditioning coaches in the NFL

170
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: they pretty much I mean I always thought when I

171
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: came into this position and working here that it's pretty

172
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 1: much the same. Like how how different can you make it?

173
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: They're all NFL players, they all need the same regiment,

174
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: but everybody's got sort of their own style and technique. Yea,

175
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: so it's really interesting to see. I think it's really

176
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: good for the players to just have a fresh start

177
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 1: and start a new especially after the injuries last year.

178
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: They've all raved about it, which is cool to hear

179
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: the positive reviews. You know, it's not like, oh my gosh,

180
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: I can't stand well, who is going to say that? Anyway,

181
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: it does seem their exciting. Here's the thing in my

182
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: experience with some of the players I've interviewed at events

183
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: and things like that, they've gotten out of their way

184
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: to say it. They don't have to do that. If

185
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: they don't like it, they don't have to do that

186
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: because they haven't always liked everything because they're human. But

187
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: I think they really are embracing this. So you just

188
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: wanted to pay dividends on the field, and we'll have

189
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: to wait till September to actually see that happen. All right,

190
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: what's next? J. J. Watt is not petting a percentage

191
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: on it, but he says he's looking forward to the

192
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: new season. He'll be at training camp and will likely

193
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: participate to some extent in OTAs. He looked pretty good

194
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: on the golf course yesterday. Now you're out there golfing

195
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,119
Speaker 1: with him. Thanked his girlfriend Kalia o'hi for the inspiration.

196
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: He said watching her go through her rehab motivated him

197
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: through his injury and rehab, which I thought was really nice.

198
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 1: I thought that was nice too, And it did look

199
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: really good on the golf course. He had a very

200
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: very powerful swing. Yeah, he apparently can hit the golf

201
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 1: ball very well. You know, he's a former hockey player.

202
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: He's got the swing down different though, isn't it. It's

203
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: a little different. Yeah, But you know what, if you

204
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,599
Speaker 1: can just sort of like these I don't really know

205
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: what I'm looking at. It just looked looked powerful the

206
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: right direction. Yeah, that's going in the right direction. Important, right.

207
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 1: That can sometimes be the most difficult thing is how

208
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 1: did you do yesterday? I was in a good group,

209
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: and you're a pretty good golfer. I'm just slightly above average,

210
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: not just the above average, slightly slightly above which is

211
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 1: That's what I've always said, you know, because I when

212
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,439
Speaker 1: I get out there, I try to break ninety. I'm

213
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: that kind of golfer. I'm not a great golfer, but

214
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 1: I enjoy it. I enjoy it. How about that? I

215
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: have a good time. That's what you should do when

216
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: you play golf. But it was fun to see the

217
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 1: players out there. Coaches. Bill O'Brien's group was behind us,

218
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,319
Speaker 1: so occasionally, like you know, during a scramble, you get people.

219
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 1: And this was off for the Houston Texans Foundation. The

220
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: Houston Texans Charity Classic raised a ton of money for

221
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans Foundation and partners. So you had Bill

222
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: O'Brien and the group behind me, so they'd pull up

223
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 1: every once in a while, because you get jammed up

224
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: in tea boxes every once in a while. And I'd

225
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: get some running commentary from the head coach on your

226
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: swing swing or people in my group, or you know,

227
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 1: stuff like that. As you could well imagine, the head

228
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 1: coach of the Texans has things to say about people

229
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 1: chasing him around a little white ball. John McClean we

230
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: were we were standing around talking waiting for the head

231
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: coach to address the media, and John McClean said, a

232
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: head coach is usually not going to be good at

233
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,959
Speaker 1: golf because if he's got any extra time, he's wearing

234
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: on football. He actually said that, He said, I was

235
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: going to tell mister McNair that if your coach is

236
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: any good at golf, it's a it's a bad thing.

237
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: You want your coach to be bad at golf. He

238
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: does not look like he has a temperament for golf either.

239
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just saying Brandon Whedon, I think he

240
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: was in mister McNair's group, because Brandon Whedon's probably the

241
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 1: best golfer on this current team. It's always the backup quarterbacks.

242
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: The backup quarterback Yates was really good. Several years back too.

243
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: I asked mister McNair who is the best player golfer

244
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: that he's played with, and he said, you know, David

245
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: Carr could hit it a ton, He's a great athlete.

246
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 1: You know, a Shop could hit it a ton. I

247
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 1: once played with Shop, but it was after it was

248
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: in the afternoon, after morning conditioning when they were getting killed.

249
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: You know, they were just the strength and conditioning coach

250
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: at the time was just butchering them. And so they

251
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,319
Speaker 1: get out to the golf course. They have no legs

252
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: or arms or anything, nothing left, you know, after a

253
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: huge workout like that offseason workout where they know they

254
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 1: don't have a game coming up. But he still played

255
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: pretty well. He played augusta once and I think he

256
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 1: shot very well. There he hit the lady in the head. No, no,

257
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 1: that was not an act. That was during what was

258
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,719
Speaker 1: it that celebrity tournament in Lake Tahoe in August. He

259
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: hit a lady lady in the head. It bounced off

260
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: of her and he still made par So, that's right,

261
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 1: that was that was fortuitous. I wish she was a

262
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: little more fortuitous on the football otherwise. Oh but back

263
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 1: to the Watt story. So this was very endearing to

264
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 1: me that she helped him to his rehab and helped

265
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: him get through and he's inspired by her and she's

266
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 1: helping him. She's been a huge inspiration to me, not

267
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: only from seeing her rehab and seeing her go through

268
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: everything she went through and being able to get back

269
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: on the field and play the game as she loves,

270
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: but also her helping me through mine. I mean, she

271
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: was so incredible. For two months after my surgery with

272
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: my knee. I couldn't walk, I couldn't stand up, I

273
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 1: couldn't do anything. So she had to literally help me

274
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 1: do everything from showering to eating to cleaning up at

275
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: I mean, and she was there through every every piece

276
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 1: of it while she was still rehabbing for herself. And

277
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: I think that I couldn't be more thankful to have

278
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: somebody who's so special to me and willing to help

279
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: me go through all that while she was still going

280
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: through stuff of her own. So I'm very lucky, you know.

281
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,319
Speaker 1: I just as together. It's kind of like sports superstar

282
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: love story stuff right there. I almost saw the movie

283
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: in my mind as he was talking about it. I

284
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: was like, Oh, this is great. Yeah, you know, somebody's

285
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: got to shoot this and now they'll both be healthy

286
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 1: and back on the field again. Would that would be great,

287
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: especially because they're both Houston athletes, I mean Houston athletes,

288
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:47,559
Speaker 1: and he's obviously iconic, and the thought of him getting

289
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,440
Speaker 1: back to the way he was or even you know,

290
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: ninety eight percent whatever it is, is so tantalizing to

291
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 1: think of what back in action for an entire season.

292
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: You know, I just hope it happens, and you know

293
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 1: everyone's hoping for this. Let's just see how it plays out. Yeah,

294
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: Johnny and I were talking about this a few weeks ago.

295
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 1: We said, just for the city of Houston to see

296
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 1: JJ Watt back on the field, especially after everything he

297
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: did with the hurricane and Harvey relief and Alter Payton

298
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: Man of the Year, just really want to see I

299
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,320
Speaker 1: think everybody's really rooting for him. He looks he looked

300
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 1: really good on the golf course. I guess we'll find

301
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: out an OTA's and mini camp and training camp how

302
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: he really looks out there. But you know, I find

303
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: it interesting he's not putting a number on it. He's

304
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: not setting any expectations. It's like he's been through this before.

305
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: And Drew Doherty's theory is that he's setting the bar

306
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: very low and then he's just going to really surprise everybody.

307
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 1: But I think it's more just he's just you know,

308
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,199
Speaker 1: tempering it because he's been through it before. He doesn't

309
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: want to tell everybody. I'm not one hundred percent right now, Yeah,

310
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 1: because then you know, if he if he doesn't want

311
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: to go in training camp or he can't go in

312
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 1: training camp just yet, has to take a few days off.

313
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 1: It's not a big deal. It's just remember the last

314
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: year in training camp, he there was one day where

315
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: he wasn't shaking up or anything, but he just sort

316
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: of left the field and I think Jeff Kaplan was

317
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: talking to him and did some side running, and we thought,

318
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, what's happening. And I started to worry

319
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: about his career. You know, I'm natural overreaction because we

320
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 1: had just lost the entire season before after Week three.

321
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 1: But then he made it to the starting line and

322
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 1: was playing pretty well. Didn't he begin the Patriots game

323
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: with back to back TFLs? Was that the one yes?

324
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 1: He did looked like everything was headed in the right

325
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: direction obviously until the Kansas City games, but in training

326
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: camp you see guys take days off. Team Bernardrick McKinney

327
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: was out for like a chunk of time in training

328
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: camp and everybody was freaking out. And I mean he

329
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 1: played the whole season just fine. I think you never

330
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: want to take a chance in training camp. Now we're

331
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: so overworked. No way, the whole idea. I mean, the

332
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: coaches have to get the team ready to play. They

333
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 1: have to get everybody in their right spots and get

334
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: everybody in shape. But you want to hit opening day healthy.

335
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: Everybody healthy, everybody gets to the starting line opening day

336
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 1: in good health, good enough to play professional football. Then

337
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: you take it from there. You know the injuries are

338
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: going to happen, but you just hope they don't happen

339
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: to you. This team has suffered enough. But it's not

340
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 1: about that. It's you know we always talk about It's

341
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: not like Roulette red red red red doesn't mean Black's

342
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 1: coming up next. You know, you just hope that your

343
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: luck changes here with the injuries. But some luck you

344
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: can control. And like we talked about the sports performance

345
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 1: center upgrades here at the cafeter every little tiny bit,

346
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: every little incremental bit. You know, we always talked about

347
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: the game of inches and maybe it results in that

348
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 1: extra push at the goal line of the key moment

349
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: in December. You never know. That's what blows my mind

350
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 1: about this game. All the practices, all the offseason work,

351
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: and then it comes down to did so and so

352
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: make a fingertips play like did he knock it away

353
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 1: or did he make the catch? And it determines your

354
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: whole season. The fate of the season is in that

355
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: one plane you think about. Maybe a play in OTAs

356
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 1: in may made the difference or helped build to a

357
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 1: difference in that particular moment. Maybe it didn't. But that

358
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: fascinates me about this game. I love that part of it.

359
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: It's amazing. But to your point, I do think with

360
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: soft tissue injuries and stuff like that, you can have

361
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: some control over it. I mean I see like JJ

362
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 1: Brook's like, you can't control. I mean, if that's how

363
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: somebody hits you like Cushing twice, you get landed on

364
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 1: nothing you can do. But if you've got sort of

365
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: recurring injuries, there's probably good ways to manage that. All right, Deep,

366
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: He's gonna stay with us. We have more hot reads,

367
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 1: a little bit of a depth chart. Look from me.

368
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: Let's keep it going here, Texans All Access, keeping your company.

369
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: On a Tuesday evening, I was about to sing that

370
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: but nobody wants to hear that. Mark Van Tamer and

371
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: dpcitu here from the Hunday Texans Radio studio. It's Texans

372
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: All Access, all right. We never finished hot reads because

373
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: we are blabbing along and that's what we do sometimes

374
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: here on the program. So what do you what do

375
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: you have next? dB? Well, Brian Gaine was also hopeful

376
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: that second year running back is hopeful. I should say

377
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: that Deonta Foreman will be ready by the time the

378
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: team puts the pads on. Foreman is in the recovery process,

379
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: he says, and that's because he had the Achilles injury

380
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: and surgery because of his injury suffered on November nineteenth

381
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: last year against Arizona. So very good news on the

382
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: Foreman front. Obviously, the team brought back Alfred Blue Ye.

383
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: We were discussing whether we could read into that or not,

384
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: but they did not draft another running back, so would

385
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: be great to see Foreman back out there when the

386
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: team puts a past. I am going to give you

387
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,719
Speaker 1: the definitive answer on how Deante Foreman could possibly be

388
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 1: coming back from the Achilles injury. And I'll tell you

389
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: this because there's been a lot of talk about this.

390
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 1: Chris Westling NFL dot Com wrote a big article about it.

391
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 1: Sean Bajanni was talking about it over the weekend. Then

392
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 1: Seth and Mike this morning, we're talking about players were

393
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,359
Speaker 1: covering from Achilles tendon injuries and compare and contrast at

394
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 1: all of that, and the answer is, we don't know.

395
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: We don't know. We just don't because there are numerous

396
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: examples of players who didn't do well coming back from

397
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 1: Achilles injuries. Now, Seth did reference that, oh, the medical technology,

398
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: those who say the medical technology is so much better, now,

399
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: does it really have an impact? I think it does

400
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 1: because Devier Posey they mentioned him very briefly, but I

401
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 1: think that's a great example of medical technology changing. Because

402
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 1: he got hurt in mid January and made it to

403
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: opening day in September on the fifty three men in

404
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 1: the starting light, well in the lineup anyway, he was

405
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: activated that day and was he himself that well, I

406
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: don't even know who himself was because he really hadn't

407
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: done much. That was his rookie year, right that Patriots game.

408
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: He kind of was coming along in that in that

409
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 1: blowout playoff loss, and then he ends up going to

410
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 1: Canada doing very well gets back into the NFL. I

411
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: think that Devier Posey's a pretty good example of how

412
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 1: these things can go in a positive way. And I

413
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: wish I had the audio here, I don't have it,

414
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: but the summation is this, the medical technology changed, and

415
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: he was describing to me. He's a smart guy, describing

416
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,360
Speaker 1: to me the entire process of Achilles recovery and how

417
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 1: it's just or Achilles treatment and surgery, and how it's

418
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: just different than it was in say, the days when

419
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: Marino got hurt and he was never the same again.

420
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,159
Speaker 1: It's just better now. It's better than it was in

421
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 1: the nineties. It's better than it was ten years ago.

422
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: So let's just see what happens with for I remember

423
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: Davie Posey also saying that he used to watch film

424
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: of other players that had been through the same injury.

425
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: He kept in contact with them, reach out to as

426
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 1: many players as he knew. I think he reached out

427
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 1: to Demiko at the time because he had been through

428
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: who had been through it as well. And it's it's

429
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,679
Speaker 1: not the same example. But on the line along the

430
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: lines of medical technology improving, how about Jadevi and Clowney

431
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 1: when he had his microfracture knee surgery. I remember said

432
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 1: he might be done. We were on the air when

433
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: that news broke. We were out of Food Wreckers show. Oh,

434
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: we were at the Texans Girl. Used to be at

435
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 1: the Texans Girl. And when that news broke, and I

436
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: remember just feeling just overwhelmingly sad because you just think,

437
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 1: you know, you think the other guys that have been

438
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: through it just never able to come back, never come

439
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 1: back the same. And not only does it come come back,

440
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 1: he comes back in nine weeks or nine months. Nine

441
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: weeks would be tremendous. If he can nine weeks would

442
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: be good, that would be amazing. He was back for

443
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: week one the following year, and I just thought, you know,

444
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 1: I will never doubt technomedical technology again, because everybody's different,

445
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 1: everybody's different in the advancements. Who knows, yea, who knows.

446
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that the technology is there to

447
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 1: bring a speedy recovery to Diante Foreman, But it's up

448
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,720
Speaker 1: to a lot of things, and some are than his controls,

449
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 1: some are not. Let's just find out together, that's all

450
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 1: we can do. Now they have Lamar Miller, they've resigned

451
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: Alfred blue. They have some other options as well to

452
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,680
Speaker 1: carry the football. And you just want to see him though,

453
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: I mean, you want to see him in year two.

454
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: He knows the system, he's not a rookie anymore, even

455
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,400
Speaker 1: though he has to go through this recovery process, even

456
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 1: though you're not gonna get to see him at all

457
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 1: really probably until late in training camp. But it'd be

458
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: great to see him. We don't need to be we

459
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 1: don't need to see him. We don't need to see

460
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: He knows enough to get out there and contribute. Maybe

461
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 1: he starts the year on pub I don't know, but

462
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 1: I'd love to see him in uniform with Deshaun Watson

463
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 1: and this office. Yeah, everybody, everybody wants to see that.

464
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: All right. Nobody knew what he was going to be

465
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: last year as a rookie, But now I want to

466
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 1: ask you this year's rookie class, who could be a

467
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 1: starter forst team. Well, we've talked a little bit about

468
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: Justin Reid because he's potential late first round or early

469
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: second wherever people thought he would be drafted. Now none

470
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,199
Speaker 1: of that matters anymore. Now he's gonna be here with

471
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: a chance to make plays for this team. Let's just

472
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: see how quickly he gets acclamated. You said in the

473
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: first segment how he can get here right away from Stanford.

474
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: Now I think that really helps to get in here.

475
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 1: OTA's mix it up with the veterans. He'll be here

476
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: for rookie camp this weekend. And by the way, we'll

477
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 1: have all the rookie camp coverage Friday, midday and late day, Saturday,

478
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,679
Speaker 1: midday and late day. They'll be here Sunday. We'll have

479
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 1: all of this for you will discuss it for the

480
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 1: next week or so as to how these guys are

481
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 1: looking to us. But justin Reid, I think has a

482
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 1: good chance because he's got the pedigree to do it.

483
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 1: You know, he's got the smarts to do it. He

484
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: is a rookie, but he'll have a chance to make

485
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: some noise. I don't know about start, but certainly get

486
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: into the mix. In that defensive backfield. I think there

487
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: are gonna be a lot of options there. We talk

488
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,439
Speaker 1: about it with Nicol and Dime whatever. But then you

489
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: look down the line. I mean when they start two

490
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: tight ends and if you want a run blocker in

491
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: there is Jordan Thomas, a guy that you could possibly

492
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 1: have in there as a starter. You know, Now, what

493
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: about offensive line? Because you know you have the rookie

494
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: Martinez rankin. Can he starts at tackle for you? He

495
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 1: might have to if you get injuries or whatever. But

496
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 1: can he possibly beat people out and make it at

497
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,719
Speaker 1: right tackle, possibly even left tackle? I don't know, And

498
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: I think they don't even know yet deep. I think

499
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: they just want to see how these guys look and

500
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: ramp them up and see what happens. I think it'll

501
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 1: be really interesting with Bartinos because is he going to

502
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:21,199
Speaker 1: be left? Is he gonna be right? Will be a

503
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: swing tackle? You know? I heard them discussing this on

504
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 1: one of the morning shows. Whoever is the left tackle,

505
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 1: whether it's Julian or him or you know, Sean Chrell, Henderson,

506
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 1: his name gets floated on at right tackle? Whoever comes

507
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 1: in second? Is that person automatically the right tackle or

508
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,120
Speaker 1: does that person become the swing tackle? And his left

509
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: and right pretty much set. I think that left is Julian,

510
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 1: right is Henderson, and then you're right. The next man

511
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: up is going to be the swing and if it's

512
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,640
Speaker 1: a rookie, my gosh, you know, and Julian Davenport, he's

513
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: just one year removed from all of that. At least

514
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 1: he's been through the mix a little bit. If he

515
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,239
Speaker 1: starts late in the air, started late in the year,

516
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: so maybe he could handle it. But gee, I just

517
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 1: think they're so thin at left tackle right now, And

518
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: if Julian Davenport couldn't do it, I guess it's Henderson.

519
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 1: Assuming that he looks good, he'll be the left tackle.

520
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 1: Or do they go veteran? There are some veterans out

521
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 1: there on the street, guys waiting for phone calls. You know.

522
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 1: The right tackle equivalent of that would be say Eric Winston.

523
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 1: You know somebody like that who's later in their career.

524
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 1: You're not going to bring them to OTAs because you

525
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 1: don't want to use the spot. Assuming they stay in shape,

526
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: you feel like it's not exactly plug and play, but

527
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: you feel like you can plug them in and get

528
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 1: something out of them. So I think there are a

529
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: number of guys like that, and maybe they go in

530
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: that direction prior to training camp. They're gonna see what

531
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: they've got in OTAs. Why waste reps on a veteran?

532
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 1: May we basically know what he's got, Let's just go

533
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 1: with what we got at OTAs with these ninety people approximately,

534
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,439
Speaker 1: and then after Mini camp then you say, all right,

535
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 1: who do we really want to bring to camp here?

536
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: You know, do we really need another left tackle? Let's

537
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,120
Speaker 1: bring a veteran whatever and Austin Howard or somebody like that.

538
00:23:54,440 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: And maybe that happens, maybe too, because the more guys

539
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,359
Speaker 1: you bring in, the less reps there are for the

540
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 1: guys that are on your rosted point. And I want

541
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: to see these undrafted free agents. I want to see

542
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 1: how they look this weekend, you know, and all throughout OTAs.

543
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 1: And they do too, So you're right, you don't want

544
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: to use up those spots. Sign these veterans later when

545
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 1: you really feel like you have to if you need to,

546
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: and if you don't, my gosh, that would be wonderful.

547
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: One name you didn't mention Kiki Qt. I'm really excited

548
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 1: to see what he does, especially that's the first guy

549
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: I mentioned. Is it you think special teams saw just

550
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 1: because every year we're talking about who's the return guy

551
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: going to be? And I think Will Fuller, you know,

552
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 1: there's a lot of emphasis on keeping him healthy. Tyler

553
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 1: Irvan's coming back from an injury, So do you just

554
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 1: designate one guy to be your return man. What if

555
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 1: what if QT is like the guy I love Fuller

556
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 1: returning punts, but I hate it at the same time.

557
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 1: It just it's like Daniel Manning back in the day,

558
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 1: Like you love Daniel Manning returning kicks, but then you

559
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: just also, yeah, you were watching with like your eyes

560
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,120
Speaker 1: half covered. Yeah, wait till he gets to the playoffs

561
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 1: and then you know, just everybody, you just gotta sell

562
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 1: out playoff games. And maybe that's what you do with Fuller.

563
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: But Kiki QT look at it this way. You know,

564
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins has always been healthy. I don't he missed

565
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:05,879
Speaker 1: the last game of a regular season. But you know,

566
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: it's funny with guys you don't get hurt, you sort

567
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: of take for granted sometimes if they don't get hurt.

568
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: But yeah, you need insurance at all positions, you know.

569
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: But DeAndre Hopkins is you're leading if this were a

570
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 1: basketball team, he's your leading scorer, right, He's gonna fill

571
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 1: it up. So he's gonna get a ton of catches, touchdowns, everything.

572
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: But Fuller will too. But Fuller has had some injury issues.

573
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: So Kiki QT to me is the third guy battling

574
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: it out with Ellington for playing time. Ellington's a veteran though,

575
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: and QT obviously now, but I think he's got the

576
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: goods to compete at least be a fourth guy. You know.

577
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: Braxton Miller is definitely you know, the alarms are going

578
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: off for him. Oh my gosh, here's another hand in

579
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: the handhouse. I gotta respond to this. But I think

580
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 1: QT could find his way into the field for a

581
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: lot of plays on offense, not just special teams. And

582
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: if Fuller gets hurt again, maybe he can step in there.

583
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 1: I don't know how they see him in that particular slot,

584
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 1: but we saw a game last year where they had,

585
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: you know, at Tennessee where they had Andre Ellington playing

586
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: a wide receiver position and Steve and Anderson, and you know,

587
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 1: they were just trying to you know, everybody all hands

588
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: on deck, trying to get through the football game. So

589
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: I think Kiki QT can help you in a lot

590
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: of different ways. All right, you mentioned the playoffs. Wait wait, wait,

591
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: what did you get called out on for the Kiki

592
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 1: QT the cute calling it a cute lineup train wreck? Tuesday?

593
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 1: This morning, I was and I missed it. I had

594
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 1: a few people in the office tell me. I was

595
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 1: really disappointed, But then I thought, what did I do

596
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: in the last week that would put me on train wreck? Tuesday,

597
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: Johnny and I were at flood Ruckers and I was

598
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: talking about Kiki QT and the tight ends and how

599
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 1: that'd be like a cute combo, you know, on the

600
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 1: inside passing game. And then as soon as I said it,

601
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,880
Speaker 1: I said, why did I say cute? But I think

602
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 1: I was thinking QT, and cute was the first board

603
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: that jumped in my into my mind. But then we

604
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 1: changed it to something like formidable or impressive or we

605
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 1: Johnny and I we brainstorm like five vocabulary words out loud.

606
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: So I I didn't listen to the segment, but I

607
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 1: did hear that they played my entire but I heard

608
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,679
Speaker 1: they didn't. They were gentle. I think I wanted to

609
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: know who agreed and who disagreed. That was important to me.

610
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 1: Seth Payne says he uses the word adorable a lot,

611
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 1: so yeah, shout out it doesn't work. I don't know.

612
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. I want to hear him use with

613
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: the word adorable with tight end wide receiver combo. I

614
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 1: don't know how we do that, but I do think

615
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 1: QT lends itself to like those words. For some reason,

616
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 1: I still don't see it when I read his name.

617
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't look like QT. But people knew

618
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 1: it right away because they're Texas Tech fans. And a

619
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: couple of guys I was playing golf with yesterday are

620
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: TCU people, and they said they were happy to see

621
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: him graduate and move on, get out of Texas Tech.

622
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 1: They don't want to see him anymore on the opponent's squad.

623
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: Good stuff, all right, I was gonna ask you about

624
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: the playoffs. We're talking about playoffs, and I know we

625
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 1: don't talk about odds and numbers and such like that

626
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,159
Speaker 1: too often, but I wanted to get your thoughts on

627
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 1: some numbers odds recently released about the Texans, oh the stuff. Yeah,

628
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 1: I didn't know if I was allowed to say that

629
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 1: Vada is the most popular. Well, it's worth bringing up.

630
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: It's worth bringing up, don't you think, Because if the Texans,

631
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 1: according to them, are the third most likely team to

632
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 1: win the AFC, that's notable to me only because sometimes

633
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,199
Speaker 1: you look at those guys you to say, what are

634
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: they thinking? You know, it's not like they know something

635
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 1: because they can't predict the future. They do mark. They do.

636
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: They always do. They always think we're gonna be healthy.

637
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 1: They know that there will be no injuries this year.

638
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 1: It's amazing. Before a game. I don't know why I

639
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: like to check what the spread's gonna because they you know,

640
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: Vegas gets it right, just so people and we can

641
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 1: talk about this part of it, just so people know.

642
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: And sometimes people read too much into these numbers. These

643
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: numbers are based on where they think the money's gonna

644
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: go when people participate in the dark arts, as Sean

645
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,719
Speaker 1: Pedergast and Johnny Harris call them. So they are just

646
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 1: gauging where it's going to go. But they were wrong.

647
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 1: They were wrong. I want to say several times last

648
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: year when de Shaun Watson's I don't think anybody foresaw

649
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 1: was going to happen that. How could you or see,

650
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 1: let's take seven points against Tennessee or even a Seattle

651
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: the points that day. I had fear that it was

652
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: not going to be a good afternoon at all, and

653
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 1: they ended up erupting on the offensive side of the football.

654
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: So I think this is what you call respect for

655
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson for this offense and returning starters that are

656
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 1: starters on defense. Oh my gosh, look at them the

657
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: year before. Now they get what coming back. I mean,

658
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: if if most of the guys stay healthy on defense,

659
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 1: they should have at least a pretty good defense to

660
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: go with that explosive offense. If Watson stays healthy and whaila,

661
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 1: you have a contender. But I hate this in a

662
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: way because then Jacksonville sees it. It's bulletin board material

663
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: for everybody. Oh look what they said the Texans. Huh.

664
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: I mean we're in the AFC South where everybody's got

665
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 1: a shot, and with Edrew Luck, don't discount the Colts.

666
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 1: They've got a shot too. Well. That is why I

667
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 1: was surprised, because I think the AFC is so competitive,

668
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: and you're right, Jacksonville's right up and there in the

669
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 1: mix too. Yeah, you've got this team was four and

670
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 1: twelve last year. So I go from four and twelve

671
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,479
Speaker 1: too to the super bowling. Yeah, I mean I'll take it,

672
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 1: or or the third most likely. I mean, yeah, of

673
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 1: course you'll take that. That the third most likely would

674
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: put you in the divisional round. You take your shot

675
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 1: from there. Look, I think they just get to take

676
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 1: It's the old one week at a time. But you

677
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: have to win this division. That's your first goal. Try

678
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 1: to win the AFC South. Now, a couple of years

679
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: ago that seemed a whole lot easier than it does

680
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 1: now because these games are huge. Think about how these games.

681
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: Just look just read your schedule now when you read

682
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: the name Jacksonville at home. Now, those are hot tickets.

683
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 1: You know, a couple of years ago, it's like, oh, Jacksonville,

684
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 1: I can give these to Aunt Gertrude. Now I'm just

685
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: kidding about that. I mean, they're great games. Jacksonville at

686
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: home the last game of this twenty it's going to

687
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 1: be an epic battle. I think we were discussing this

688
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: on radio and I said, that's actually one of the

689
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: games underrated games that I'm looking forward to because that's

690
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: such a tough matchup. And I'm so glad it's here

691
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: because last year we were on the road against all

692
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: the AFC South teams in December around the holidays. To

693
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: have the Jaguars, that's going to be great. Before the division.

694
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 1: Maybe that could be the AFC South champions number three seed,

695
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: or it could be for the number one seed because

696
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: Jacksonville's They're not getting any worse, are they. I mean,

697
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 1: on paper. They certainly have not gotten worse this year.

698
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 1: All Right, we're going to continue the conversation. We'll go

699
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,719
Speaker 1: around the league and we'll also discuss a little bit

700
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,479
Speaker 1: more about this stuff because this division is it the

701
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: best division in football now on paper? And things are

702
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: so important when they're on paper, aren't they. It's Texans Radio. Okay,

703
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 1: we're wrapping it up. Actually we're not yet. We have

704
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 1: a ways to go here and Texans All Access from

705
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: the Hunday Texans Radio Studio, Mark Vandermer and DP to

706
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: do with you. All right, So DP, We've got a

707
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: number of things to talk about. But but I caught

708
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: one of the information earlier today. I think I have

709
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: to go right there right now, because I know exactly

710
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 1: where you're going. Occasionally we go beyond the blue lock.

711
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: There's a football tie into this story as well as

712
00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 1: an entertainment story. We do talk movies and movies from

713
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 1: time to time. Uh. The Replacements a semi popular sports

714
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 1: movie about the nineteen eighty seven strike season in the

715
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: National Football They. Let's hope we don't have another one

716
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 1: of those again. Remember that Keanu Reeves played a quarterback,

717
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 1: Shane Falco in that movie. He also played a quarterback

718
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 1: in another movie that does not feature the sport of football,

719
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 1: but it does feature the sport of surfing, and that

720
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: would be Point Break, the original one, which was one

721
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 1: of the great B movies of all time, also starring

722
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: Patrick Swayze, and Swayzee is one of the greatest B

723
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: movie stars ever. I mean he really is. He is.

724
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:38,240
Speaker 1: I mean he's had some movies too, though. All right, wait,

725
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: what's an A movie with dancing? Is an an A?

726
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 1: It's an A movie, it is. I played that soundtrack

727
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: on my cassette player on repeat. Though. So that movie

728
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 1: spawned the commercial in the Super Bowl with Eli many

729
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham Junior and the Wake Forest football team, by

730
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 1: the way, re enacted the whole thing and they did

731
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,120
Speaker 1: a great job. Isn't that crazy? Like, I mean, I

732
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: know they did a remake of it, but the fact

733
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 1: that a movie has an iconic moment, it's like Titanic,

734
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 1: you know, the bottle of the ship, Like, tell me something, though,

735
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: that's thirty over thirty years ago, dirty dancing and for

736
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,239
Speaker 1: some reason, you know, so it came out before all

737
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 1: these guys were born, basically not elive, but for some

738
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 1: reason it still sticks this. I don't understand. I don't

739
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 1: understand how how that happened. How that happens? I think

740
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:26,560
Speaker 1: it playing on cable. Are they watching it? People watch

741
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 1: cable movies that came out before I was born, Uh,

742
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 1: not too many. No, A lot a lot of the No.

743
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: But you would see like Sound of Music came out,

744
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 1: yes before. But I remember seeing that as a school movie.

745
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 1: I don't think many schools are showing dirty dancing or

746
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: like Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Right, although I did see

747
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 1: Ferris Bueller's Day Off in seventh grade. I saw it

748
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 1: in a classroom. Isn't that amazing? They showed you Ferres

749
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 1: Bueller's day off at school, the stuff they do with

750
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 1: the principle, and it was like one of those it's

751
00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: the last day of like the last week of the

752
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: school year where cleaning out. I actually went to a

753
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: Catholic school too, and they showed that I did. I

754
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: also saw Sound of Music, So you know, we're very diverse.

755
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: We're very diverse. Were real questions everything in the Sound

756
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 1: of Music. Oh my gosh. Anyway, we're kind of off

757
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 1: track here totally. But by the way, Swayzie Gray by

758
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 1: Movie Roadhouse and that's definitely a roadhouse, yes, but it's fantastic.

759
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,240
Speaker 1: Agree all right. So Keanu Reeves, who played Johnny Utah

760
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 1: in Point Break and Shane Falco in The Replacements, started

761
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 1: his career basically in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. And

762
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 1: they're coming out with a sequel, Bill and Ted face

763
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,440
Speaker 1: the music. It's the third one. We had to go

764
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 1: back and look at when did two come out? It's

765
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: called Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey. And as I say that,

766
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 1: everyone's saying, oh, yeah, it was nineteen ninety one, and

767
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:45,879
Speaker 1: we questioned, are they actually in that movie? I thought

768
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 1: they weren't even in it. Yeah, but I can't believe

769
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: Kane's doing this, although I can because I bet he

770
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: gets a ton of scripts that he's just no, no, no,

771
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 1: Can you imagine what he turns down Speed seven? He

772
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: wasn't even a Speed two. But yeah, okay, so but

773
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: here's how they can do it. So they're not actually

774
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: Bill and Ted the teenagers. Now, they're way now they're

775
00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 1: like middle aged dudes that have families. Okay, yeah, of course,

776
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 1: so it's a little older and yeah, but George Carlin

777
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,359
Speaker 1: can't be in it because he's dead well, that would

778
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: make it hard for him to be in it. You

779
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: could go hologram. I guess it, wou'd be a little weird.

780
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,719
Speaker 1: I love this. I wonder if JJ Wat's going to

781
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 1: be in it. Did you ever see Bad Mobs? I did?

782
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 1: I did, And I remember during the Walter Peyton Man

783
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: of the Year Awards, I was flipping channels and it

784
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 1: just happened to be JJ as the soccer coach, right,

785
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:39,439
Speaker 1: and then I'm flipping back and hear your award? Because

786
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 1: acting skills are very good. Best Texans actor? What Arian

787
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:48,240
Speaker 1: Foster or Chester Pits of that Super Bowl commercial? Because

788
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: believe me, that was acting, okay, even though they enacted

789
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: or re enacted some real life stuff. He and he

790
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: from Salam had to act in that commercial. Right, So

791
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:03,360
Speaker 1: I'll nominate Chester Pitts. Okay, I'll nominate JJ Watt and

792
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: I'll nominate Arian foss Aaron had that big, chunky role

793
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 1: in Draft Date. That was a that was a pretty

794
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: meaty role. But I well that was less meaty. I

795
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,360
Speaker 1: think JJ's just had a variety of roles, so he

796
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: just had more like commercials had New Girl. He was

797
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 1: a new girl. He was in Bad Moms, I liked

798
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: Bad Moms. I mean, I'm saying, what is the best

799
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 1: actor ever? But maybe he gets better if he continues

800
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: to work on it. And Arian definitely is an artist

801
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: because he's got the album and people just pretty good.

802
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: It's pretty good. I haven't listened to it yet, you

803
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 1: like it, I've I've heard one track, but the kids

804
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,399
Speaker 1: around the office rave about it, so I do. It's

805
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: on my to do list to listen to. You were

806
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: one of the kids. Surprisingly, No, I'm not. I listen

807
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: to one track. I'm like, this is pretty good. He

808
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 1: sounds you know, we were saying maybe something like Lupe Fiasco,

809
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: and oh really yeah, he kind of. He has a

810
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 1: very distinctive sound. He's got an as you would say,

811
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:58,919
Speaker 1: you would like his tone, the tone of his voice.

812
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: You're a radio person, you would like it. I think

813
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 1: he's creative, There's no question about that. He's always been

814
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 1: a bit off the beaten path with the way. I mean,

815
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,919
Speaker 1: we all look, this is not breaking gas. Okay. When

816
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:11,719
Speaker 1: we did the Arian Foster Show, which I know you

817
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 1: regret that you were not here, incredibly missed all of that.

818
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: I mean that was a phenomenal program. Every week, it

819
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 1: was it was. I'm not gonna say it was deep,

820
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 1: but it definitely went deeper than most sports interview shows

821
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 1: would go. And I think he likes doing that. I mean,

822
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:28,399
Speaker 1: I remember my interview with Aaron, which I infamously call

823
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,320
Speaker 1: twenty three minutes with Arian because I didn't realize it

824
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 1: was going to go that long. We still have it.

825
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 1: I have it somewhere, I do. We talked about yoga,

826
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: we talked about poetry, we talked about music, We talked

827
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: about all sorts of stuff like once you get him

828
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 1: off of football and onto other things, like his football

829
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: answers were, you know, other than talking about Andre Johnson

830
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,320
Speaker 1: or like a few few, you know, like the players

831
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,360
Speaker 1: that he was friends with. He didn't really care to

832
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,760
Speaker 1: talk about the XS and OS too much other current

833
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: Texans because wats still on the team here? Who could

834
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 1: acts to believe I think he could do it. I

835
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:05,360
Speaker 1: think DeAndre Hopkins off the beaten path, maybe he could.

836
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 1: Maybe he could. He could do appearances for sure. Maybe

837
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 1: maybe he's better in commercials. Allow me to well, I

838
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: think Kareem for some things. Yeah, well, he is our

839
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 1: our player reporter. He's fantastic. Hey, Jack TV is is

840
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 1: a smashing hit it's got a life of its own. Yes,

841
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 1: that really does. Also, I think DJ Reader, Yes, he's

842
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 1: got a fun personality, like a lot of fun. I

843
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: love having him on our Foodbroker shows. Yep, he'll be back.

844
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,919
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he'll be back. All right, so that'll be cool. Yeah,

845
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: Whitney merciless, Whitney mercy. Yeah, that's a good point. Whitney

846
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:40,799
Speaker 1: could do some of that too. So all right, well,

847
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 1: if we thought we'd approach that subject a little Texans movie.

848
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:45,959
Speaker 1: And by the way, next week we're going to shoot

849
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of stuff with a season, including but

850
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 1: not limited to Kid Reporter, which is coming back for

851
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,400
Speaker 1: this is seasons in three. And I think this is

852
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,839
Speaker 1: the last run for the kids every well, I do,

853
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,359
Speaker 1: but I think they're gonna have something to say about that. Well.

854
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: I think next year we have to break in the

855
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 1: new kids and we'll have the old kids doing something.

856
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:05,320
Speaker 1: Because all right, So for people who don't know, and

857
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 1: a lot of people have seen these videos and they're great.

858
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,680
Speaker 1: Uh if we do say so ourselves, because these are

859
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 1: our kids, not like ours together, but your kids, our

860
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:17,800
Speaker 1: separate kids. Kids are in this. And how it started

861
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: was we thought, what if with the other teams have done.

862
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,399
Speaker 1: This is not a new idea, and we thought we'll

863
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 1: bring in our kids because nobody's done it better. Though,

864
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 1: but if it's terrible, we thought, if it's terrible, it

865
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. We're not hurting anyone's feelings. We're the parents.

866
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 1: We don't care. So we expected nothing when we first

867
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 1: brought them in and it kind of took on a

868
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: life of its own. It was magical and I think

869
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: a lot of it as Jay McDevitt, our editor, Yes, yeah,

870
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 1: the editing, everything, everything. It's not like we could go

871
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:49,360
Speaker 1: live with this stuff. No, we couldn't because sometimes the

872
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 1: kids have comments of their own, which you're not on

873
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,960
Speaker 1: the new cards. But you know what's fun. Last year

874
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:57,319
Speaker 1: they were in the building and players actually recognize them.

875
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: They come up and talk to them like, hey, it's

876
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,399
Speaker 1: the kid reporter and you know, their egos, maybe maybe

877
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 1: we need to put it a dress because their egos

878
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 1: probably out of control. When I threatened to Luke that

879
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 1: I think this is your last year? What what like?

880
00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,319
Speaker 1: He does he wants to come back every year. You

881
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:14,800
Speaker 1: know he knows because he's had people asked for his autograph.

882
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of a joke, but it's not,

883
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: you know, or people say are you the kid Reporter

884
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: instead of saying are you vander Baby which was his

885
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: name when he was a baby? Are you in the

886
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 1: morning shows? Yeah? I mean now it's like, are you

887
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: kid Reporter? And that's what I get. But he's a

888
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 1: huge fan. Obviously, he knows the team really well. I

889
00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 1: know Jogi knows the team well too. Jogi's at the

890
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: games and whenever they show kid Reporter on the on

891
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 1: the big screen during timeouts and Whatnotuh my husband said,

892
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: the people in our section now know that that's him,

893
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 1: and they all turn around and high five him, and

894
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: people coming up and down the aisles high five him,

895
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 1: and he's just so bored with all the attention, like, yes, yes,

896
00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 1: that's me. I'm the kid Reporter, Like just so not

897
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 1: the opposite of humble. Have we created the aisle stars here?

898
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna suffer from some of the residual that child

899
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 1: stars get, like, oh my gosh, we've ruined their lives

900
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,000
Speaker 1: with this stuff. Now, it's not like great fame or anything,

901
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 1: but it is. It is fun and you'll be able

902
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,359
Speaker 1: to see those things soon enough. I know we're gonna

903
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: run from replay. I love I love the comments that

904
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,759
Speaker 1: people put up. I mean, obviously, you whenever you put

905
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 1: stuff on Instagram or Twitter, you open yourself up to

906
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 1: a lot of criticism. But thankfully, you know a lot

907
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,319
Speaker 1: of people love love the segments, so very As far

908
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 1: as starting quarterbacks or would be starting quarterbacks, they did

909
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 1: interview Oswyler, they did. They interviewed Savage is this here? Four?

910
00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,919
Speaker 1: Didn't they interview Ryan Mallett? Why do I have this feel?

911
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 1: And maybe they weren't. No, they didn't. They did. They did.
