Speaker 3 (02:04):
Good point. You know, can they reverse? They can? They can?

Speaker 4 (02:09):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Is it worth it?

Speaker 3 (02:13):
The like an can't stay home for Marg's madness. It's
like an oil chain. It's been three hundred and sixty
five miles.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
I heard.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
I heard it's the equivalent of getting kicked in the balls. Now,
I've never been kicked in the balls, but I've been
hitting the balls before, and that really, really is a
very very very very painful thing. I was setting a
pick in high school and a dude ran into me
and and need me and am I the balls?

Speaker 4 (02:44):
This is the last time you've been kicked in the balls? Yeah?
High school, buddy. I mean I picked up my six
year old daughter the other day and you know how
they somebody got excited. They started like flipping their feet.
Oh she crushed me on the way up to Yeah,
she's like that tall.

Speaker 3 (03:00):
Now.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
I literally gave her a like put her down.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
I was like, okay, hit and in my place I
gotten hit there, you know, since then. But I mean
I'm talking like like pain of another like like the
the pain pain of somebody running into your balls that way.
It's been high school, Like I've been hit like accidentally

(03:26):
or you know, like you know, all right, I got
need like you know, buy my kid or or somebody
was you know, plopped down or got up off of
the couch. Oh, use me to get up like I
get it. But but hit hit like did it? Like?
Have you when you got hit by your daughter? Have
you ever been hit in your balls?

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Like?

Speaker 3 (03:47):
Yes? And it felt the same.

Speaker 4 (03:50):
Buddy to me, it's all the same.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
Have sensitive? You half sensitive? You're you're sensitive balls? Man.
See I'm more of an industrial strength ball was man,
That's what it sounds like right now.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
With this, Why do I come over there. I'll give
a good flick and.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
I'm gonna give you a punch and we're going to
say that's what we're going to do.

Speaker 4 (04:12):
I am not making the wild accusation that you are
making right now because I'm acknowledging that all men in
this department are the same. It doesn't take much. I mean,
Jonas told me a stiff breeze in Chicago and it's
going down to one. That's it.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Was that hawk, right, the hawk, The blows through your
blows through your body.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
I got a whiffle ball straight to the balls like
two weeks ago for my son.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
So see, now that's different. That's the I mean, there's
I feel like I feel like there's levels of pain
in that area, you know, I just feel like there's
levels of pain, like like if I got hit by
a grown man there versus getting hit by my daughter. Yes,
they're both going to hurt, but one is going to
hurt way more.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
Like dude, I mean, I played catch when I was
a kid. Here's the thing I never understood about wearing
a cup either is you'd get hit and it's still hurt.
Maybe it would lessen a little bit of what it
feels like, but it almost felt like the cup provided
a short space environment for it to bounce around and

(05:17):
like and become more painful, Like there was more trauma
because they were confined to a tight space that would
rattle around if they got hit.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
I was never comfortable. Do people in like I know
boxers do it, but do people in sports still weird cups?

Speaker 4 (05:33):
Like if you're a summer or like a lacrosse goalie,
you don't.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
You are nuts so you're not going to be able
to have kids, but.

Speaker 4 (05:40):
But you imaginally a lacrosse goalie not wearing one or
like I mean hockey players are pretty padded up, but.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
What about what about football players? Though? Do you think
any football players still wear cups? I know they still
wear jocks, which is that's still funny to me too.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
If you're playing against Pete Prisco, you got you.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Yeah, he's a squeezer, right.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
Yeah. Remember he told that story, he said he made
that kid scream, little.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Grabbing twist like, I don't think I would have it
in me to do that. I used to do that
in Oh. Yeah, I was a dirty player. I wasn't
what you would consider the cleanest player. I definitely played
dirty only if they were playing dirty. Though. I did
start it, but I would get it. I definitely would
get involved.

Speaker 4 (06:23):
That's like a Midwest East Coast thing. I don't I
don't think they do that in the South roughout West,
you know. I think in california're like.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
No, Bro, what are you doing? Bro?

Speaker 1 (06:32):
No?

Speaker 4 (06:32):
Bro? Plays over? Man, get up, Let's go back to
the huddle.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
Come on, Bro, we were we were cold bloody. What
what's your problem?

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Coop?

Speaker 3 (06:40):
That guy? I don't like the California guy impression. Bro.

Speaker 4 (06:49):
The guy tried to grab my jug, Bro.

Speaker 3 (06:52):
Grab my jug? What are you doing? Bro?

Speaker 4 (06:55):
Hey, bro plays over whistle blue, go back to your
go back to your huddle.

Speaker 3 (06:59):
Hey hackey second up my hat sack, Bro, Like, come on,
we were we were stone cold. I know that we
stepped on hands, like, stepped on ankles, legs. If it
was that type of game, Like it wasn't always that way,
but if it was that type of game, like when
North Hills played North Alleghany, it was it was bad.

(07:21):
When North Hills played Butler, it was bad those two teams.
It was really really bad like it was. It was
bad like if it was a pile up you hear
people get get out, get out the stuff like that,
and it generally was me in there. It's me. You
know who taught me that that message to do shouts

(07:42):
out to Jason Brazen. His nickname was Bozo. He would
hit but a locker before like he hit but hisself
to to blood before the before the game. It was
crazy dude with his nickname was Bozo.

Speaker 4 (07:54):
So it was LeVar Grabbingtonbington.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
I mean you could have called me that because if
you if you hurt me, if you did some crazy
stuff to me when you were tackling me and stuff
like that, if I got a pile up. And here's
the thing. It wasn't even the person that started it
that ended up being the recipient of the retaliation. It
was always like a teammate more often than not, because

(08:18):
in the pile up, you don't know, I just saw
see a darker pair of colored pants. Let's go get it.
Like it's not like that's the right person. But you're
on the other team, so you gotta deal with what
took place with the guy who stepped on my hand.
So you gotta deal with this squeeze. And I mean
it was a squeeze, like get up in there, you
know what I mean. Yeah, I'd be sitting there laughing

(08:40):
like you can't do too much because you'll get caught.
So but I'd be laughing like crazy, like they'd be like,
get up, right, get up, get up, get up, get up?
All right, there you go.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Well, somebody for tax somebody for Texas did did also
get me in the groin last night.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
For what it's worth.

Speaker 3 (09:02):
With the tournament here, congratulations to Xavier.

Speaker 4 (09:07):
Oh yeah, but a good Xavier proved that they actually
belong in there instead of a what Texas go nineteen
and fifteen, Like you know, fourteenth in the SEC.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
You have, but Texas is back hook them, baby.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
I just you know, people have conspiracy theories that this
was about the TV ratingsine and I don't know, I'm
not a TV expert. If more people were going to
tune in that matchup because Texas a part of it,
I get it, They've got a big following, big alumni base.
But I mean, ultimately, was there were there not more

(09:41):
deserving teams? I kind of keep going back to West Virginia,
which talk about get kicked in the nuts. Not only
do you not get in the tournament and then your
coach leaves to take the Indiana job. By the way,
it sounds like that deal was done during the season
like that. It's been a tough seventy two hours there,
I think for West Virginia at this point, or I
guess I should say the last week, but I mean,

(10:01):
I don't know, Like that's what bothers me about. And
then again we can argue resumes and all that kind
of stuff. And I know North Carolina showed out they
were another team that was on the bubble, But I
just I look at this and I go, I mean,
this is part of the fun of it. But at
the same time, if we're just gonna push out some
of these smaller teams that I think in the world
of basketball, I mean, Xavier is a great job, Marquette's

(10:24):
a great job. You know, those are jobs that are
coveted by a lot of basketball coaches for a number
of reasons. But like when it comes down to play
against like a blue blood like a Texas for example,
if you can consider them that in basketball, or at
least a big brand, I just people think it's like
bigger of a disadvantage. And I know there's a lot
of resources in the SEC for college basketball, but there's

(10:48):
a lot of that too that's directed towards Xavier when
that's your biggest sport at your school, like that's what
carries everything. So I don't know, I was glad to
see Xavier win.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
It felt like that was a little bit It isn't
that where Dwayne Wade went to school, Marquette Mark Marquette
is where he went. Yeah, yeah, Marquette's have some players.
Though you got Duke winning yours? Who you got win
in yours? You got Duke? Why are you looking at
my bracket? I mean, why you hustle in my backet.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
Mind your own stall, Okay, Like you don't need to
worry about my bracket, all right, And.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
I mean you put your picks in. It doesn't matter
now you can't change them. Yeah, listen my final four set.
I was actually I was about to talk you guys
have as your final four.

Speaker 4 (11:29):
Oh, I've had a log on a quicker. I know
I've got Florida, I've got Duke I don't have in
the Houston bracket. I think I've got someone else coming
through there. And then who's the one seed in Auburn
Auburn Florida Duke? And then I've got like kind of
an upset, like someone making a run on that side
of the bracket.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
I got Michigan State. You cool, ukont Alabama in Kentucky.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
Man, I hope, I hope you cont does just to listen.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
To Michigan State. Yeah, Michigan. I got Michigan State winning it?

Speaker 4 (12:07):
Do you really? I do you love his he is
a good coach man.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
Let me go ahead and make sure.

Speaker 4 (12:14):
Then what do you got, Jonas? What you got crap out?

Speaker 3 (12:17):
Okay? I mean I look at Michigan's, Michigan State's path
to get there?

Speaker 4 (12:22):
Oh what am I doing.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
I've got I feel like it's it's a pretty like
it's like pulling up somebody else's bracket. Right.

Speaker 4 (12:28):
Oh, yeah, that Kentucky is my other team.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Yeah, that's a good one.

Speaker 4 (12:32):
On a second, I guess we'll see.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
I think Alabama is going to surprise a lot of people, though.
I think Alabama make it pretty final four.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Ye Texas A and m verus Saint John's, Duke versus Houston,
and I got Duke over Saint John's in the final.

Speaker 4 (12:47):
Wow, look at you by the way that that second
round matchup, the potential of Saint John's taking on Arkansas
is awesome. Man. Well, forget the Italian so that a
lot of the pie Zons will be happy, or you know,
a lot of the hot Peppa's and all that stuff
showing out there. But what I'm saying is just two
of the best coaches in Kentucky basketball history. And you know,

(13:11):
obviously you moved on from Coach cow Which mind you I.

Speaker 3 (13:16):
Sent a or did Coach Kyle move on from them?

Speaker 4 (13:20):
I don't know. I hope they kind of moved on.
I literally sent one of my buddies, the meat Wagon.
A highlight of Oakland you know, beating Kentucky. That was
that last year. That was last year when when as
a goalieer, how he pronounce this last night ago?

Speaker 3 (13:37):
The white guy who lit Lexington on fire.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
I mean, case in point. For the NCAA tournament, why
it's so hard to win because you can get some
white guy that just absolutely whites you up, that probably
is going to be playing at a rec center of
the rest of his life. He is like that guy
that's like stealing everyone's money or winning like the men's
Under forty league.

Speaker 3 (13:56):
He walked into the lock or he walked into to
the basketball court, like that's him right there. My god,
he's the one that beat Arkansas.

Speaker 4 (14:04):
But you've got like the guy who just laughed and
the guy you maybe should have thought about bringing back,
you know, scoring off vers one another. But it'll be fun.

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Yeah, it's it's gonna be a good time.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
And I also I was thinking about this, how many
wins does North Carolina have to have in the tournament
to justify them getting in because they already got one
in the plan.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
They got to get one. They need one more.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
They need to be official, all right, because I got
them beating Old miss I know that I gots.

Speaker 4 (14:31):
I got them beat I got I got Old Miss
win in that one.

Speaker 3 (14:34):
Yeah, so that's uh, I got him, I got him, Yeah,
they I got them beating out with State.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
You know, they say because today's the first day of
the tournament, and they say this, on average eight upsets.
I think in the is the first round or first second.
I think it was first round. Have to go back
and look at what I was researching. But that's on
average about what you get, which is, I don't know
if that's more than you guys think or less than
you think. It feels kind of just about right.

Speaker 3 (15:03):
But let you see how many upsets I have. I
got Auburn winning, I got Louisville winning. I got Michigan
State or Michigan winning. So there's there's a wait, who's
Michigan playing Creighton? No, No, they're playing you see San Dieg. Yeah,
that's not an upset in Texas A and that's not

(15:24):
an upset. I don't have very many upsets, to be honest.
I got New Mexico beating Marquette. I got Liberty over
Oregon twelve five.

Speaker 4 (15:34):
Do you really yeah? I got.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
What else I got here? I have High Point beating Purdue.
Oh no, it it happened. Yeah, and then I've got
that's not what a.

Speaker 4 (15:45):
What a beautiful school. If you guys haven't looked at
the high point, that place is amazing, you know. I
think with their meal plan, they get like unlimited free
ice cream. It's an ice cream truck. They just can
go to anytime and get it.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
Really.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
Yeah, there's there's a steakhouse I think they can go
to once a month. It's a nice steakhouse and they
get to eat at it for free, and it's part
of their education, like teaching them how to have like
proper manners exceter, going like a nice restaurant. Yeah, it's
a place is incredible in North Carolina.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
I got Baylor Mississippi State. There you go that away far? Yeah,
I got away far in Mississippi State. That's that's an upset.
My wife did her bracket.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
She's got Baylor winning at least a couple of games
just because of Fixer Upper, because of Chip and Joanna
like that.

Speaker 3 (16:32):
That's like that's the problem with this. Like it's it's
fun and all, but that's the problem.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
Well, it's also a religious school institution.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
So oh well you are you know what her final is,
don't you it's St. Mary Catholic School on there y
St Mary Saint John's. And I'm not making that up
like I could have sworn she was going to take
New Mexico just for the name.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
But you know she went.

Speaker 4 (16:53):
She didn't went like a Zaga or like another program.
It's a bit more proven maybe in basketball. Does she
know it's a Jesuit school? God forbid, forbid, my daughter
goes to a Jesuit school. It's a great education.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
Man.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Yeah, I got like three or four upsets. I got
three or four on here. Well I do know this.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe Fox Sports Radio,
LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with you here. Coming
up in a little over fifteen minutes from now here
from the tire Rack dot Com Studios, a potential Hall
of Famer in the NFL. His life is about to
get a little bit busier, a little bit bit busier
for this guy. We'll explain who that is again a
little over fifteen minutes from now Good news for Netflix fans.

(22:37):
Quarterback is back, because that's just what we needed. We
needed another documentary and more football to watch.

Speaker 3 (22:44):
That's just what we needed.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
Quarterback is Back. Congratulations to Netflix for getting it done.
We are looking at Joe Burrow, Kirk Cousins, and Jared
Goff who will be featured in this edition of Quarterback.
This is the second season of this Last year went
so well that they said, you know what, let's go
ahead and bring this whole thing back. So congratulations to

(23:07):
anybody that's going to watch quarterback. I personally will not
be one of those people, but congratulations to have you.

Speaker 3 (23:13):
Watched any of them yet? Oh no, no, no, no no,
I watched the first season?

Speaker 4 (23:18):
Can I ask this? Then? This is backwards looking?

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Right?

Speaker 4 (23:21):
So this will be last season?

Speaker 3 (23:24):
I don't even know. I'm not sure there wasn't a quarterback.
This year was receiver with the titles kittle them, and
then the year before was with like Cousins and Mariota and.

Speaker 4 (23:37):
Who else was on that?

Speaker 3 (23:38):
But that's that's Patrick Mahomes. I think Patrick Mahomes was
on it.

Speaker 4 (23:42):
Mahomes was on it. Yeah, so I did, well, this
is what now Burrow, Golf Cousins.

Speaker 3 (23:49):
Yeah, Kirk Cousins. I mean.

Speaker 4 (23:55):
Sit again.

Speaker 5 (23:55):
It follows them through the twenty four to twenty five season.
So yeah, last last season.

Speaker 4 (24:00):
Last season, I thought, yeah, which which actually this will
be really interesting because I mean Burrough played lights out
and then to make the playoffs, so like how he
handles that will be interesting to watch. Obviously Detroit wasn't
able to make it back.

Speaker 3 (24:14):
He's got an interesting storyline though, Yeah he does, he does.

Speaker 4 (24:20):
I would say too really big, I mean huge, you know,
potential things that the people not on there, and then
Kirk Cousins with his whole situation is kind of gonna
be fascinating to see. I also wonder though that I
can't remember who made this report, who said this, but

(24:42):
they made common of the fact that, like, Kirk was
such a good guy during the course of the benching,
and then he was rumored to be banged up and
then playing through injuries, and you know, there wasn't really
a lot of fuss or anything said from that, but
he was rumored to be such a good guy that
that's kind of what made him a more tradeable asset,
maybe something that other teams are going to look to do,

(25:04):
depending on the decision of Aaron Rodgers and then still
see what Kirk Cousins has left in the tank. But
maybe part of it two was the fact that he
had a camera falling around the whole time, you know,
and he would he would portray himself to be you know,
an na hole out there while he was dealing with
getting benched. I mean that or the fact he was
getting paid a hundred million regardless. So there's that.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
I guess I just don't know that these things give
us the the real side and real story of what happened,
because ultimately, yeah, there are cameras around, So who's gonna
who's gonna act natural in that in that format, in
that situation. And I just I think the NFL coverage
is such that they're kind of passed all of this.

(25:46):
I mean, it extends their lead over everybody else as
far as branding and coverage goes. But I just look
at it, I go, this would have more value with
another sport that could really use some more buzz or
some more run or.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
Some more push. But how do you make it relevant?

Speaker 4 (26:03):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (26:04):
Like, how do you make that content relevant? Like they
put out that that Netflix special on what the Starting
five or whatever it was for basketball. I mean, I
haven't made it through it. Like I thought it was
entertaining when I was watching it, I just hadn't made
it back to it. It wasn't like it was good content,
but it just didn't. It didn't hold me. It's just

(26:25):
I'm just one person. I mean, I'm starting five. You know,
like the Basketball the Basketball Show on Netflix which it
had Ant had Anthony on there. Ant man, it had
I want to say, Lebron, I don't remember the rest
of them. I don't even remember the rest of it.
I didn't even know was a real thing. Yeah, there
was a show on. It's still on there, starting five,

(26:48):
ye starting five, Yeah, still on there. I mean, I
just my question, and that kind of goes to the point, right,
like how do you make it relevant? If you're saying
that this is going to be better for a different
a different category in sports, how how do you make
it relevant where people want to watch it? People barely
watch the NBA on a consistent basis. How are you

(27:11):
going to get them to watch something else? Damn? You
know baseball, same thing, you know, other sports, the same thing.
I mean, what how do you make it compelling? That's
I think that's the reason why when you do football
football shows, you have a chance for it to do
well more so than other shows, at least in America.

(27:33):
You have a chance for it to hit and do well,
and people watch it, you know, because people are into
to football, like what's going on with football? Like okay,
this is somebody that I want to know about, Like
I don't know, it's interesting, but people don't get enough
consuming football oriented information like can that help me with

(27:56):
my fantasy football or oh, it's something that I'm going
to look for in next next season or this week
in the games whatever.

Speaker 4 (28:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (28:05):
It's so extensive, you know, And that's the way we
present it too. That's the way football is presented. It's
just such extensive coverage because there's so many interesting and
curious angles to be able to speak on to sport
about see.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
I see it a little different because I feel like
with football players, they're always wearing the helmet and they're
the least visible of any professional athlete in regards to
the amount of FaceTime they truly get, you know, like
if you look at basketball, if you look at baseball,
if you look at golf, anything else. I mean, you

(28:43):
can even make the case hockey because a lot of
those guys have more of like an open mask oftentimes,
Like when you see a football player out in public,
you're usually seeing the size of the individual or like
how they're build or you know, kind of how they move,
and you're thinking that. Then you're look and say, okay,
I got probably played football or probably played a sport.

Speaker 3 (29:04):
It's just it's different. Not the stars, not the stars,
but well, Brady Quinn. Brady Quinn comes walking down the sidewalk.
They know that's Brady Quinn. Yeah, Like you can say
what you want to say, but that's that's if they
see certain people, like the big stars they're walking somewhere.
You know who they are, Yeah, like people like me,
they're like, oh he's big, Oh he's black. Yeah, he's

(29:26):
got to be a football player. Hey, moddy, what's your now?

Speaker 6 (29:29):
Want to get the you know, the best thing? They say,
here's here's what the right stupid here's what they say.
They go, they go, hey, man, I know you, I
know who you are. What team do you play for?

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Again?

Speaker 3 (29:40):
You got you got your mace? Right, that's gotta be
like that's the easiest, Like come.

Speaker 4 (29:50):
On, man, so so but but but so for some yes,
but for others, Like I mean, I was say again
the record, you're right, you're maybe not. Yeah, But what
I think it does is this allows in particular, like
these guys too, to build their brand. Like Kirk Cousins
came out of the last series as the most likable

(30:11):
guy ever. Like everyone saw him as a family man.
Everyone kind of saw him as this like pragmatic guy
who you know, wants to win, and saw kind of
his process and what he was willing to do, and
just that he was a good guy, Like he was
kind of easy to root for. And so I think
there are elements of that too that you know, maybe
people only see what's set on social media or what's

(30:33):
set about them, and they don't really get a firsthand
from the player. And once you see that, you're like, oh,
this guy's a really nice guy. Jered Goff, really nice guy.
And I think once you see a little bit more
of who they are, it makes it easier for them
to build their brand. It makes it easier for them
to be more likable, and I think it adds layers
or depth to like what the league is trying to do,

(30:55):
letting guys in. I'm more surprised though, that they didn't
find a way of doing this for Lineman. Yes, and
and and that's or even by the way, even running backs,
like running backs as well as part of this, Like
there's so many other position groups tight ends. I know
they are a part of it really with receivers, but
you could have done an entire thing. Yeah, you could

(31:16):
have done an entire group of tight ends. You could
have done DB's Edge Rush, Like, there are so many,
you know, so many position groups and players you could
have done this with. I'm surprised they're going back to
this well and they're not trying to do other variations
of this that I think would be interesting to watch
and see. That's that's one most surprised.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
What was which position group was the most fun to
hang out with?

Speaker 4 (31:39):
Oh line, There's some people don't understand. Oh line, Like
those dudes are hilarious and and and they're like self deprecating,
and some of them are. They're pretty weird. They're brilliant, brilliant, brilliant,
and then and some of them are so I'll tell
you right now. John Sullivan played center forever with the

(32:00):
Minnesota Vikings. Is one of the smartest, funniest human beings
you will ever meet. Like that dude, I mean he
just obviously I played with him in college. I got
to know him really well.

Speaker 6 (32:10):
Then.

Speaker 4 (32:11):
One of the wittiest, sharpest, funniest people you'll ever meet.
And he's super smart. But like, that guy was awesome
to hang around. And if like just walking to class,
walking to get something to eat, you know, his perspective,
how he'd see things, it's it was like second to none.
And then there's plenty of stories out there too of

(32:32):
guys who are like that in the league offensive linemen
who are characters. I mean, think about Kelsey now, Like
what do you think Kelsey was like when you turn
the cameras off and like give him, give him a
locker room environment, Like you just have characters left and
right with some of these guys who are on their
old line. So that's the position group I wish they
would have done.

Speaker 3 (32:50):
I loved D line guys. That's just funny because it's
it's it's the opposite for us. Like I like being
around d lineman because they're touched to but they're just different,
like they really like they're like real og like like
hanging out like my rookie year. I can recall I
spent a ton of time with Marco Coleman, like you know,

(33:11):
played for the Dolphins when they like lost the Super Bowl,
you know, missing the field goal and stuff like that,
like and he was like one of them dudes where
it was man, he was just he It's hard to
explain it, but I just love being around him. And
Big Daddy Wilkinson loved being around him. Like they're touched too.

(33:34):
They're just touched in a different way than offensive lineman.
Like offensive linemen, it's just different, like they're like they're
like oddly touched, Like they're different dudes, like, and I
always thought they were cool. I ain't really hang around
offensive people too much. We kind of stuck together, but
you know, I like hanging out with with defensive guys.
But the dudes that was the most fun to be around.

(33:56):
It was the line. It was the d lineman man
they because they I don't know, first of all, I
felt safe for one, Like I always felt safe. We
go out, we hang out, this, that and the other,
and I just felt like, you know, I stick my
chest out and you know, hold my shoulders back and
I'd be walking like you know, cause you imagine walking
in with Big Daddy Wilkinson. He had a chain on,

(34:17):
like before it became popular to have the big chains,
like the big chains that were here in like the eighties,
and then they can't they went away. Well, Big Daddy
Wilkinson never he never stopped. He never stopped wearing big chains.
So he had his big white gold chain and he
was like, you know, you built all like and we'd
be walking in and they spend money. They spend money,

(34:38):
like they spent my money rookie year, you know what
I mean. But they spend money and it's just cool
dudes to be around. But I think having those type
of personality personalities on camera, like you wouldn't know. You
wouldn't know that these are the type of like if
you saw these this group of offensive linemen and they
move around, you wouldn't know. Same thing with with defensive lineman.

(35:01):
You just wouldn't know. Those personality traits are associated and
attached to this guy that can lift one hundred, you know,
two hundred pounds one hundred times and stuff like that.
Is they have a certain look to them, a certain
feel to them, and to get to know them from
the personality side of it, I think that would be
super intriguing. Yeah, well maybe next year we'll see.

Speaker 4 (35:22):
Just never know.

Speaker 1 (35:23):
