Speaker 3 (04:37):
Just like Chuck Yeger's playing, come on people everywhere. I mean,
his word the word of the day now, Matt. I
just happened to be on my way up to work
today and monitoring the game as the Dodgers lost, but
then one so we're not able to panic like we
really want to.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
That was a disaster.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
But I was listening to the baseball game on m
five seventy, the great broadcast that we put together Tim Kates,
David Vasse, Neverett, Dwayne McDonald and Rick Monday. You know,
just just excellent broadcasting. But Neverett was clearly trying to
engage Rick Monday in a conversation about the beauty of
(05:23):
the Rocky Mountains and the topography of the Denver area.
And I was listening, and you know, I just I
laughed out loud to myself.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
And you know I don't often do that, Matt, I
must have been really bad for nevering.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Well, let's just listen. Well, it was just, you know,
it's a great I learned something. I didn't know this,
I guess, but here it is.
Speaker 5 (05:45):
We've got another blue sky Colorado day today. We've had
great weather here, ninety one degrees at game time. We're
on the warm side, but still pretty pleasant here in
the Rocky Moms, or just at the foothills of them.
I called to Miguel Rojas. We're still in the flat
area here.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
This is not hilly.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
The hills start when you head west, but this is
a still a flat area of the city. Breaking ball
misses and it's one and one. It's kind of flat
from Kansas over to here. Then you drive a few
minutes west and then it starts going up and you're
in the foothills, and then you're in the mountains and
the scenery is spectacular. One one pitch, swang on and
(06:29):
belt it to left deep toward the corner.
Speaker 6 (06:32):
This ball is.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Fowl, just missed the foul pole.
Speaker 6 (06:37):
Went to the left of it.
Speaker 5 (06:40):
They hooked it down the line and a late break
at the end caused it to go foul. But it
had home run distance.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
And just move on, move on, don't do it.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
Rojas chases outside and strikes out fastball away one down,
went back.
Speaker 4 (06:59):
To the top the order.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
Mookie bets coming up. That's been on base three times.
Speaker 6 (07:02):
He's two for two.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
Here walked once and sungled twice?
Speaker 4 (07:06):
Love it?
Speaker 5 (07:09):
Do you ever spent any time in the mountains up here?
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Yep? Play that last part again, please, Ronnie, I stepped
on it.
Speaker 5 (07:21):
You ever spent any time in the mountains up here?
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Yep? Yep, yep.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
And that was it. That's all.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Yep. You know what's flat?
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Hoeography is funny thing.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
I listen to that.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
I just like, dude, don't I know you want to
talk about it with him? But he and then he asked,
here's my number to number of the day.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Nine peaks over fifteen fifty six percent of the fourteen
ers here, but yet it's all with the West.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
You ever spent any time up in the mountains up here?
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Yep?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
How the hell am I going to top that? Especially
with this terrible number of the day two point nine
billion with a B two point nine billion. I know
Kates didn't like it, but people watched b They watched,
as in history making watched on a paid streaming service.
(08:19):
Netflix is well aware that while he he maybe does
not make waves with the critical crew, Adam Sandler is
a cash making machine, and when you get a sequel
to arguably his most popular movie ever three decades later,
No Less turns out its freaking gold. It broke the
(08:40):
Nielsen ratings record by seven hundred million minutes for a
debut week. The first week that Happy Gilmour two was out,
it was watched for two point nine billion minutes. The
second place was Glass Sunyon and Knives Out Mystery with
(09:02):
two point two billion. It beat it by seven hundred
million minutes. Nilsen in the article also shared that Sandler
movies on Netflix have generated over sixty one billion minutes
of viewing on the platform. Happy gilmore To also set
the record for most views over a weekend for any
(09:24):
Netflix film forty seven million views. It does have a
long way to go to catch their most popular movie ever.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
That's a long way to girl it.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Call?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (09:37):
What's their most popular.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
The rock Ryan Reynolds vehicle Red Notice?
Speaker 7 (09:43):
What?
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Yeah, that's what I said. I was like, huh.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Two hundred and thirty one million views and four hundred
and fifty four million hours watched of Red Notice came
out like three years ago. Second in Line also was
a what moment for me? But apparently this is like
quickly becoming and will become the most popular Netflix movie ever.
(10:07):
It's going to pass Red Notice in short order. Maybe
you've heard of it. K Pop Demon Hunters.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
No, I know Demon Hunters.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah, yeah, so k Pop demon They got a bunch
of K pop stars that voice this installment of Demon Hunters.
It is the most watched animated original. It is a musical.
They've got a new one coming this year. Looks like
they're going to do one of those a year. But
K Pop Demon Hunters right behind it at two hundred
(10:36):
and twenty million views and climbing.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
This is the Song of the Day.
Speaker 8 (10:47):

ninety one and It's called the Other Side of Summer

Speaker 2 (13:47):
Get to five seventy la sports dot com to see
the list of prizes. It's going to be incredible.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
It's too much for me, too much. All right, it
is time for what we like to call I guess
the flip top story. I'll clip you out, i will
look you out. This is the flip top story of
the day. Yesterday was Deshaun Foster. UCLA had football coaches
turn to be like Lincoln Riley, to be clowned and
(14:12):
made to look like a goof by the feckless, fleshy
Los Angeles media Lincoln Riley got clowned by a daily
news guy that he tried to discredit Luca Evans now
in Denver covering Matt's favorite.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
Coach, Sean Payton, a lovable guy.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
And now it's Deshaun's turn, and this has become more
of a story because it just doesn't make much sense.
It's the UCLA media policy. The media is getting very
jittery the guys that are tasked with covering UCLA football
because they're not being given much access and when asked
(14:50):
for the reasons. Yesterday, Ben Boltch and DeShawn had this exchange.
Speaker 9 (14:55):
We went down to coast to Mason, really got accomfortable
what we wanted to do, and I was just like,
bring the team closer together and really creative brotherhood and
coming up here, I feel that they're doing a good
job of still operating that we're still in training camp,
you know.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
So that was keuye for me.
Speaker 6 (15:12):
I was a little nervous coming back.
Speaker 9 (15:13):
As you know, there's where we are in Westwood and
there's things going on, but they're still operating like the
their training camps.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
Something good.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
Can you explain kind of the more restrictive media policies
that they have been put in place recently, with no players.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Today, no interview, no feature interviews.
Speaker 6 (15:29):
That's viewing.
Speaker 9 (15:31):
Yeah, you guys film our practice and put it online.
And if I was as an opponent for another team,
I've looked right at you guys and stuff and see
what's going on. So for them not to get a
beat on Tino or our depth or anything that's going on, it's.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
It's clothes, differ interviews, player interviews.
Speaker 9 (15:49):
That's the same thing because if they come over interview,
then you guys are gonna ask me, are they a starter?
Speaker 6 (15:53):
Are they this? Are they that?
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Trying to get like human interest feature type stuff, so.
Speaker 9 (15:58):
That it's tough, but you know, we want to win games.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Do you worry about the marketing impact for the program
at all?
Speaker 9 (16:03):
No, I'll let you guys have all over. I don't
not worried about the marketing because all of what marketing does,
if you win games, you're marketed. So we're going to
go out there and focus on winning games. That's why
we left for training camp. But if I was just
trying to just let everything be open, we could have
just stayed right here and did that. But now we're
going to work and go away and come back and
(16:24):
everything's gonna be fine.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
All right, I guess everything's going to be fine. We
played that yesterday, great points, great points by coach, really
really strong today. Well, you know, UCLA has an open
practice on Saturday. But this came from a guy named
David Woods, who's one of the bro guys, and he wrote,
for UCLA's open football practice on Saturday, media are not
(16:48):
allowed to take photos or video. Presumably they're not planning
on in instituting the same policy for fans. In the stance,
everything's gonna be fine. This has reached come on ll
levels never before imagined. So if you're one of these guys,
you just go to the stands exactly.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
That's the spest thing I've ever.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Somebody wrote, go sit in the stands, and he wrote,
they're not allowing us to shoot videos or photos from anywhere,
so would be the kind of thing where we could
get credentials pulled for doing it. No matter where we
do it from, everything's gonna be fine. Everything's gonna be fine. Now,
just to ask a few questions that come to mind
after listening to that again. As the story has gotten
(17:31):
a little further today. Shouldn't the head coach at UCLA,
or my goodness, the guy at usc who has one
hundred million dollar buyout. Shouldn't you be dynamic enough to
deal with guys in their twenties if your salaries in
the millions, you'd like to think and dynamic enough to
handle those guys and talk to them and bring them
(17:54):
in close to enough to where they're kind of working
with you and sort of for you. I mean, I
hate to cite Pete Carroll, but God, did he have
it figured out way Pasion. You know, we're not going
to have UCLA anymore because they don't want to take
a back seat on the station to the Dodgers and
(18:14):
the Clippers. And that makes sense, and we're not going
to have UCLA anymore. But you know, we're still going
to have a relationship with Mick Cronin. He's gonna come
on and we talked, we reached out to him right away.
He's going to be you know why. He knows that
this is a good place to promote your program.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
The TROS money to best show him town.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
So it it just Deshaun didn't have a good enough answer.
Matt even though you thought he made some good points
as to why he's not letting players talk and be
featured and tell their story and feel good. I can
say this from personal experience. It feels good to be
(18:56):
a player fighting it out in training camp and somebody
from the out outside is asking you about your life
or your family.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Deshawn's right to a certain degree. If u CLA wins
a lot of games this year with a brand new
play caller, that'll be the story in and of itself,
and they will get coverage. But that takes a while,
and I mean, you win a couple of games, everybody
forgets it. For if you're usc that, there's no one
(19:24):
even they're not playing anybody. UCLA beats Utah coming off
a bad year. I mean, does anybody care if arch
Manning goes off against Ohio State? I mean, good luck
marketing your team. You need every bit of coverage they're
willing to give you. You don't want them to shoot
practice and show guys running plays. That makes sense, that's
(19:47):
how everybody is. You talked about that yesterday. But if
you're Deshaun Foster, you've got to play the game and
let your players talk to the writers and the writers. Matt,
you know, the people that cover football, even at the
pro level, they're not looking to embarrass players. No, and
they're certainly not looking to embarrass college players.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
They will take coaches to task, not players.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
Let them at me. I'm forty, I'm a man.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
Let the freaking players learn to deal with the press,
help them become more well rounded, be a freaking university.
Just because you, Deshaun Foster are deeply uncomfortable with the
news media, which is a huge part of the role
of a head football coach. By the way, just because
(20:38):
Deshaun is clearly uncomfortable talking to these people, it doesn't
mean everybody in your program has to be.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yeah, it's funny you mentioned that.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
I just had this.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
I was just having this conversation earlier today with someone
who's been doing this for a long time, and he
was talking about Alabama and how because I don't remember
we met a talking about tour. They said, you know,
the one thing about Alabama players is they are so
unprepared for the media when they get to the NFL
because SABAN doesn't allow them to do anything with the
(21:12):
media down there.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Yeah, it doesn't let freshman talk, you know, and you know,
USC is the same way, Like they'll lose a football
game and he'll be sitting up there with Miller Moss
and a guy that played ten plays and it's like, you.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Know, when I got helping these guys when I.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Played, if we lost a game, media came in the
locker room and they asked you questions, right, and yeah,
the sids were around and kind of monitoring. But and
this is the Big ten. UCLA's in the Big ten.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
Nobody that's his job. That's his job.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
Nobody on the West Coast understands this. Maybe, but this
is not the uc BS and bureaucracy that you can
get away with in the Pac ten under the archaic
leadership for many years. In the Pac twelve under Larry Scott,
(22:00):
you don't get to do that. You have to promote
your players, you have to celebrate your team. You have
to do your job in football camp. And I hope
Deshaun has success, but this tone ain't it. Getting into
a fight with a tiff with the media that covers
you before the season even begins. And you mentioned Carl
(22:22):
Durrell earlier in the week, Matt Carl Durell did this,
so how much charity was there for Carl Durrell, Peple.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Better go undefeated, DeShawn or guess who's getting taken to
the freaking matt in the media.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Pete Carroll did a great job massaging the media. Went
six and six and lost a Bowl game or whatever
in his first year. How much support did he get?
Speaker 4 (22:49):
Take care of him? They liked him.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
Yeah, well because he made it. He worked with them,
and it's part of the job and you've got to
solve that as a coach because you have to deal
with it. And you're not in the sec where if
you're out to dinner or something, people ask you why
you're not in the office. It's not it's it's a
it's a toothless la media and you're getting clowned, you know.
(23:12):
I wonder what will happen with USC as the season begins,
or if anybody cares like owed to my family with
the cranberries, right, Missouri State and Georgia Southern.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
Who is experienced, But you're gonna know.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
But it's not quite Ohio State at the at the
Horseshoe against Texas, is it?
Speaker 4 (23:34):
I mean?
Speaker 3 (23:35):
USC played LSU last year to open the season and
they won it, and they played great and it created attention,
and it was great for them to start the year
only to peter off and bench their pillow farting quarterback
Miller Moss. But wouldn't that be a better thing for
USC in a new college football where you need to
(23:57):
get attention? I mean it any other blue blood Lincoln
Riley gets fired last season, maybe the Duke Missoo State
in Georgia Southern. Lots of continuity there with the Georgia
Southern teams with coordinators and linebackers we got.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Now, I mean, remember UCLA start last year, they bare,
they should have lost to Hawaiian uh huh, and then
they got their doors blown Now we didn't know Indiana
was going to be that good, but they got their
doors blown off by Signetti and Indiana.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
They recovered roy they improved as the season went on.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
But I mean, like, think about if they start similarly
this year, that media is going to be taking every
shot they can.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
You're absolutely right, and you know he can say, hey,
we got better last year. We got better and better
as the year one went on. But is it good enough? Noo?
And it's not it's not cool to do this, and
it's a disservice to his players. It's a disservice to
himself as a coach. As a coach, you've got to
(24:58):
be dynamic enough to deal with the guys better than that.
I'm not saying you got to be Pete Carroll. No
one is Pete Carroll. But you gotta do better than that.
But we'll see what happens with USC. Maybe those two
softies will create a vaulting into a better year confidence
going in to the later games.

No, Camp has been unbelievable, man, It's been a dream
of mine. It's been everything and anything I ever could
have thought of. Man, Coach Harball and all the players here, unbelievable.
All the coaching staff here for me, Man, it's a
true blessing. It's a dream come true. Man, I'm doing
my dream job being being an NFL quarterback NFL player
for the Los Angeles Chargers. So man, I just couldn't
(28:19):

this building enough. Give him this opportunity.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
You know, just kind of get into those people. It's Harball,
you got g row as euroc a guy that's been
doing it forever. And then you look at the quarterback
room and you get to hang out in there with
Justin Herbert and Trey Lance, kind of walk us through
what it's like, what the relationships are like, and kind
of how that's helped you over this month developed.
Speaker 7 (28:38):
I mean, first of all the quarterbacks and all the
coaching staff, Coach Harball is unbelievable. He's one of a kind.
Haven't been around a quarterback like him, quarterback, a head coach,
and then obviously his quarterback. We haven't been anybody around
him like being around a coach like that. He's unbelievable.
He's a guy that every player in the locker room
wants to play for, wants to give it. They're all
for coach g Row. He's unbelievable. He's a wizard with
(28:58):
the play calling, the stuff he does. I'm excited to
see what he does this season because he's got He's
got a lot of bullets in that playbook. And then
the quarterbacks, Man Herbert, unbelievable guy, first of all, unbelievable quarterback.
I have never seen a guy with my own two
nines to the football as good as he does. He's unbelievable.
And then Trey, Lance, Taylor, Heineken, each every one of
those guys in those rooms. Man, unbelievable, unbelievable person. Just
(29:21):
cool to be able to be in that room and
hang out with those guys, pick their brains, man, and
they're super helpful. Man, And it's been unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (29:27):
What kind of what are you looking to get it?
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Like?
Speaker 2 (29:29):
When you show up at camp? I assume you have
multiple decisions you can make. You got a bunch of
different places you can go. You come here to the Chargers,
Like what do you look to get out of it?
And what do you feel like you've gotten out of
it so far?
Speaker 7 (29:40):
For me, Man, I was just blessed with the opportunity
came here for the Chargers on the local Local day
and from that meeting, just hearing how coach Harball and
how he spoke to everybody in that meeting saying that
competitors welcome. Once I heard that, I was like, man,
that's something I love and that's how every player wants
to hear that competitors are welcome. And I was blessed
to be able to to sign here. And it's been
(30:01):
unbelievable since I've been here, and I've gotten a lot
out of it out of the training camp. Obviously being
behind all the three quarterbacks and be able to pick
the brain, be able to hear them, it's been unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (30:11):
Man.
Speaker 7 (30:11):
Each in one of those quarterbacks are unbelievably special, and
all the coaching staff and on the organization is unbelievable
as well.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
It's gonna be a showcase for dj Ujungalle on Saturday,
starting for the Chargers, our old friend from Saint John Bosco, DJ,
You played all over the place now, Clemson, Tallahassee, Corvallas.
What's it like to be back in town? Is it
weird to be playing football back in the city of
Los Angeles?
Speaker 7 (30:39):
In a way, man, it feels right at home. Man,
I missed the West Coast, miss La. She feels like,
like you said, it feels like I'm playing back at
Bosco again.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Man.
Speaker 6 (30:46):
So it's unbelievable feeling be able to play in my hometown.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
Take us through the college, you know, and just kind
of how how that all shook out. It's a weird
you know, it happens every year. We get used to
seeing quarterbacks at different places. What was it like for
you kind of getting recruit dude while you're still playing
in college to go to different places.
Speaker 6 (31:03):
H Man, it was unbelievable, like you said.
Speaker 7 (31:05):
I mean, if I ever would have thought going in
from high school going into college that would be I
would have played at three different schools. Always said no way.
But at the end of the day, God had a
plan for me and that's what he had in the
cards for me. So it was it was a blessing
to be able to play at the three places I
played played at Clemson, Oregon State, and Florida State. I
learned a lot of each and every spot and it
was unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
Man.
Speaker 7 (31:24):
I felt like each and every spot I learned a lot,
grew a lot, and I feel like God, Uh let
me down that path for those certain places for a
particular reasons, So I thank him for that.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
How did you get Hawaiian food or Polynesian food in
the South.
Speaker 6 (31:37):
Man, They didn't have any Polynesian food out there. Oregon
State that has some.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
Yeah, Oregon State has it. You're yeah, you're all right
up there. I mean Port Valence. Maybe go to Albany
or something.
Speaker 6 (31:46):
But Valacey had a place called Local Boys.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I was good the Local Boys.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
Yeah, that's some good Hawaiian barbecue there.
Speaker 3 (31:53):
They make a living off the defense of an offensive line.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
Nothing. Nothing at Florida State.
Speaker 6 (32:01):
No, there wasn't any. No, there wasn't any Hawaiian barbecue
out there.
Speaker 4 (32:05):
Did you get into Southern food?
Speaker 6 (32:07):
I definitely did. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (32:08):
I try to stay away from it too much. Man,
you know, starting all.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Though, you look good, you look spelt right now, Yeah,
like you're kind of cut up a little bit, definite
drops some weight.
Speaker 7 (32:14):
But out there, man, you know, eat all the fried food.
The pounds go up fast, man, So try to stay
away from that.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
That's right. No one wants to end up like Marcus Tuiosa.
So I'm just kidding. He looks great, He looks great.
How often do you get back to to see Coach
Negro at Bosco. I mean, you're a big part of
the growth of that place. And just the way high
school and college football has changed since we talked to
you when you were a junior in high school. DJ
(32:43):
is just mind boggling. The SEC is gonna play nine
conference games, is gonna be like twenty four teams in
the playoffs. How often do you get back and hang
out with the Silesians because it seems like a really
special place for all of you guys.
Speaker 7 (32:56):
Oh, it's unbelievable place. I mean, Coachenegger is an unbelievable man,
believable coach and all the coaches there, Coach Low, Coach King,
every single coach there.
Speaker 6 (33:04):
But yeah, I went back there. I got to be
back there.
Speaker 7 (33:07):
During end of April, while after our pro day, I
came back to California and I was working out and
trained there. Sure, I was learning some of the offense
with Coach low Is, going over plays and stuff, asking
different stuff. And I was just out there working out,
running on the field, lifting in the rate room. Coach
Nagra May he always tells me it's open open gym.
Anytime I want to come in there work out.
Speaker 6 (33:28):
Man. He just like, just text me and I'll come
open up the field for you. So I appreciate him.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
We always hear uh and it's you know, it's it's
in the media where they say it. They're like, oh,
moscow be modern day. It's like college football. Is it
one hundred percent? Like can you make a parallel between Yeah,
it's not.
Speaker 7 (33:45):
It's not college right, well, but it's the closest thing
you'll get to it from a high school level. In
my opinion, I think the game speed from a skill standpoint,
I don't think there's too much of a difference. It's
the guys up front. I mean, and we were playing
college fill all the dns running at four to four
and all the time men are three hundred plus plowns
and could all run and chase you and strong. So
(34:06):
that's the biggest difference is the guys, the guys up front,
but behind the receivers, dbs, running backs.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
Yeah, there's no difference.
Speaker 4 (34:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Last one for me, I don't know if he's got
anything else, but it's something that I always noticed with
with Petros is whether it's teammates that he had or
guys that he played against. There's that sort of bond
like you do you feel a connection to those to
those modern day kids considering all the battles that you
guys had and what was at stake when you guys
would go ahead. I mean it was there was must
watch TV every single year for us, two times a year.
Speaker 7 (34:36):
I mean for me, I knew a lot of the
guys on the team. Like my cousin was the starting
MIDL linebacker from modern day uh for the last two
years that I played, I played there, so like that
part was crazy, Like I grew up my cousin he
was the starting MIL linebacker. And then obviously like knowing
all the guys playing some of them. I played seven
on seven with a lot of guys, played played against
them in youth football, and then just hanging out going
(34:57):
to different camps like obviously know them, like we don't
go to we go to two different high schools.
Speaker 6 (35:00):
But yeah, I mean you grow going on recruiting trips
with each other.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
So no, definitely, DJ, we love hearing from you. We're
rooting for your brother young Concrete up in Oregon. UH
