• 5:06
  Speaker 5: thank you very much. Enjoy the pod, guys, It's a
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: banger today.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: So there's this thing I was looking up online. I
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: actually tweeted about the other day. My wife called me,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: hold on tailing.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: So we're on the street.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: Is that the Tennessee Police Department warns about meth gaters?
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, we got to figure that out. What is
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: the what's what's the premise behind the meth gaters?
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Day?
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: They warned us about meth gaters dude, this is this
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: is like a cartoon like people in me, like you
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: know the old story, like you flush like a fish
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: down the toilet or contewers or god damn it will.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: This is what I'm talking about. Being so disrespectful, dude.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Sometimes I gotta chime in.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Let me finish a thought.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: It's it's not even a finish a thought. It's finish
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: a book, a Harry Potter books.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: And how well do those sell?
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Nice, yep, this is like, yeah, I've already lost my
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: lawns flushing. No, you flush down the toilet, I said,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: Like in New York they talk about all the time.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Don't flush the lizard down the toilet, don't flush the
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: fish down the toilet.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: They go in the sewers. They become toxic, like teenage
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: mutant ninja turtles.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: But they have a chip on their shoulder because they've
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: been flushing the toilet. And if you've ever been flushed
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: on the toilet, I've got a swirly when I was
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: a little kid, and I didn't enjoy it, and I
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: get pissed, all right, And now I'm a toxic goldfish
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: that's now seven hundred pounds, dude, And I've adapted feet
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: and now we're in Futurama. But anyway, Tennessee Police Department
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: warns about meth gaters due to flushing drugs down the toilet.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: What so over here, it says a middle Tennessee police
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: department is warning people about fishing flushing drugs down the toilet,
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: saying fouls and gaiters on meth are possible. That's a
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: real thing, getters, getter's on meth. So basically, what they're
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: saying is if you're in Tennessee and you flush on
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: the toilet, they go to these treatment ponds. In these
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: treatment ponds in Alabama, there are gators. Gators that will
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: eat these things. This myth that's probably in a plastic bag,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: because no one has has ever nice enough to just
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: again like push it out of the bag. They actually
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: have to fuss the whole bag. The gators will eat this.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: And now gators are already terrifying. All right, we've seen
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: the things in Disneyland where dogs are getting snatched up,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: people are getting snatched up. Imagine that kind of issue
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: if we are dealing with gators on meth. All right,
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: no one is safe, dude. Gators are already dinosaurs.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Are they like zombie gators?
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: No, they're meth head gators.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Right, But what is the attitude when of gators on
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: fucking meth?
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: Do you remember what?
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: Like I know where I grew up number three county
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: one time for meth in America? Really Yeah, we would
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: go to these fame, yeah, claim the fame. We would
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: quote unquote what are these haunted places? And we would
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: break in these abandoned buildings sometimes and you would find
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: these meth labs that were abandoned. So be around people
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: of like the the meth category is like, we got
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: somebody right here on the screen right now.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Like meth heads are fucking out of their mind.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Is there any way we could patch this through? Dude?
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: We better be able to like man maybe Jaz at
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: the time somebody else and liked him.
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: Terrible.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: We're so fired. Your production company has already fired.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: That's actually fired.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: He doesn't even make a dollar, dude, he's already fired.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Here's number one. I don't know what was going on
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: with that whole thing, but that myth dude.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: He look he had some.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Rhythm when he was talking though, I'm not gonna lie.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: He had a little a.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Little they got a weird twitch to him.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, look at that.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: Get it back way back the smile, my baby.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Pretty smile again.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: We have we ain't got no problem.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Hey, did you imagine a gator on that ship?
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: Did dude?
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: The the the treat the now you pause, Zach, pause
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: this video.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: Dude, God damn.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: So the treatment center also had a comment saying the
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: following ducks, geese and other foul foul frequent our treatment pawns.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: And we shuddered to think what one all hyped up
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: on meth would do. And that's just talking about duck
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: and geese.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Did you a fucking gator coming out of the water
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: on meth? Dude with your dog outside?
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: My dog's dead.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: I love you, hey, get your ass back. Hey, dude,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: that would be a terrifying thing. But like I've learned
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: a lot of things this week.
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: What was what was it? What was the thing you
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: were telling me about ducks?
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Dude? These fucking these ducks, bro, male ducks.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: The sentence was our prolific gang rapists on Instagram And
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: I just saw this helpless female duck getting destroyed by
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: a gang of ducks, like male ducks.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: From what they say is it says that male ducks.
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: Have a corkscrew penis that they use as a weapon
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: to try to impregnate a female duck.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: That's how they reproduce.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: So female ducks have a vagina that is built like
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: a maze for these corkscrew for these corkscrew weapons that
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: male ducks have. So these male ducks are taking turns
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: trying to penetrate them, and these helpless female ducks are
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: just built to try and survive this gang rape. Dude,
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: it's insane.
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: Somebody passing into our group chat fuckery Island, shout out
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: fuckery Island. But I'm sitting there like, yo, could you
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: imagine being a female duck created? Like, hey, we're creating
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: you to be to fear for your life when males
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: are around you. Look here, here's a video right there,

  Speaker 5: Oh shit, I am out I am out numbered, I
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: am out manned, I am out gunned.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: And the thing is is like, yeah, if you get
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: to do your thing, if that's how the reproductive system
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: and a duck works, go for it. That's how the world,
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: it's society of being a duck. If that's how it is,
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: I guess I'll turn a blind eye to that, but
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: don't peck her in the back of the head, dude.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Like, look at that one.
• 11:07

  Speaker 2: Kirk is live Minnesota.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: Paid paid, so paid, dude.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: He's like the only guaranteed contract, Uh, I think in
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: the quarter? Is it in the league? I don't know
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: if it's I don't know.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: If you sign a one year deal, isn't that guaranteed?
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: No, you gotta play, you gotta like run down on
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: kickoff first. Well, in my world, you have to be on.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: The team on Monday of week one, right.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: But I'm saying when Kirk signed that stuff is fully
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: guaranteed right out of the gate done. He's like the first,
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: like an elite quote unquote elite guy to have like
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: a fully.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: Guaranteed contract like that.
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: Because I want to I want to say, Jets offered
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: him like a few million more dollars, like a lot
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: more of a ceiling, but not as much guarantee, and
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: he ended up turning that down and going with the Vikings,
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: who fully guaranteed everything.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Solid deal. We asked him about that. We asked him
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: about the franchise situation the Redskins.
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: Everybody always wants to know how some how certain things
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: went down there.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: We ask him if he'd cut he cut his piece
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: off for a Super Bowl ring.
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: Doesn't go the way you think it does.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we try hard, man, We went at this dude,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: and he is polished. He's a polished white quarterback.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: And what just just being white in the league as
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: a feet in its own isn't it?
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: Isn't that just unless unless you're a quarterback. I mean, yeah,
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: it probably better to be white as a quarterback.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: Why.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the you know, the stereotype that goes.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: On if it's a if it's a black quarterback, it's
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: like the thought is they can throw it a little bit,
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: but they can run in their super athletic and then
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: gets you out of weird situations for a white guy,
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: you like think, you know, it's just those stereotypes.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: White guy, I think he's a grinder.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, grinder, high motor, try hard.
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a that's a pretty dumb stereotype, but it's true.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, hey, most over quarterbacks are black. Yeah, and
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: Tom Tom Brady can't run at all. Hey, there's a
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: you got that five b there's a all right, Well

• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Nine eleven.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: You went to the one of the worst universities to
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: ever be called a D one university, the little brother
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: Michigan State.
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Well how'd you get there?
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: Do Was it like, hey, this is my only offer
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: and I have to or did you actually choose to
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: go there?
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: Is that a thing?
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 22:35
  Speaker 7: What grew up in Michigan?
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: Full disclosure, I grew up. Really, I'm on the line.
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: I mean I watched any of them.
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: I watched the Spartan And the reality.
• 22:44
  Speaker 8: Is Michigan had every opportunity to recruit me and call
• 22:48
  Speaker 8: me to come to my high school, and they never.
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: They never even I don't even know if they sent
• 22:54
  Speaker 6: me a letter.
• 22:55
  Speaker 8: Like a like a just typed up, like generic send
• 22:58
  Speaker 8: it to fifteen thousand kids letter.
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: I don't think I even got one of those.
• 23:02
  Speaker 8: And so you know, they got Ryan Mallett early in
• 23:06
  Speaker 8: the recruiting process.
• 23:07
  Speaker 7: He committed and I.
• 23:07
  Speaker 8: Think they pretty much said, with Fi for quarterback, we
• 23:09
  Speaker 8: don't need to recruit another one, and that was it.
• 23:12
  Speaker 8: But chat Enny was a senior when I was a freshman,
• 23:14
  Speaker 8: so I thought, you know, Hey, it timed out great.
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: I could have been graduated.
• 23:17
  Speaker 8: I could have stepped in as a sophomore and played
• 23:19
  Speaker 8: a few years. But they had other plans, and Ryan
• 23:21
  Speaker 8: Mallett and and so I went to Michigan State and
• 23:23
  Speaker 8: it all worked out and won a few games against
• 23:26
  Speaker 8: those guys in the ann Arbor.
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: But uh, I would have loved to have.

  Speaker 2: better feeling than when you're going to play Michigan and
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: we're going to play you guys like there's that Like
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: the week of you just don't even go to class,
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: You just lock in watch film and the hype before
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: the game. Michigan players are kicking at the middle of
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: the Spartan head. You guys are coming around trying to
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: knock down our banner. It's it's wild. People are punches,
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: just good American boys that were the number seventy seven
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: and the amazing Blue has never done anything wrong in
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: his entire life. It's a beautiful thing, man, It's a
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: There's nothing like that rivalry because like Michigan had you
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: know we had a house state, which is supposed to
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: be the biggest one.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: We had, y'all. Oh yeah, Notre Dame.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: But for me, ever since William Golsen punched me in
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: the face here, there's nothing I want more than the
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Michigan is the dummy of Michigan State.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: Every single year.
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: Well I grew up in the state.
• 25:17
  Speaker 8: I grew up in the state, would have loved have
• 25:19
  Speaker 8: been recruited by their school, wasn't recruited by him.
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: Play against them?
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: And I know, and I'm still a resident of Michigan.
• 25:24
  Speaker 8: All my years of the Redskins, all my yars of
• 25:26
  Speaker 8: the Vikings, I keep the Michigan driver's rights, my residence
• 25:29
  Speaker 8: of Michigan.
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: So I if we had it done well against I.
• 25:32
  Speaker 6: Gotta face it the rest of my life.
• 25:34
  Speaker 8: So I really hold on to that whole thing about
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: you walk the street through the alleys each year, whoever
• 25:38
  Speaker 8: you know, whoever wins, whoever loses, and so you know
• 25:41
  Speaker 8: you still live that every every day back in the
• 25:43
  Speaker 8: state when you run.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: Into people who are you know, your part and to Wolverine.
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: So it's uh, and I knew that on a plan.
• 25:48
  Speaker 6: I mean, you felt that pressure like.
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: Man like today's games. Yeah, it's gonna change my life.
• 25:53
  Speaker 7: It's gonna change my life one way or another.
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: And here we go, and uh, you gotta love it.
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: Do you think Michigan looks back and they're like, man,
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: we should have got Kirk Cousins or do you.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like you were still the toper hired?
• 26:03
  Speaker 8: I mean, if you want to go into the football,
• 26:04
  Speaker 8: and if they hired Soloy Carr, obviously iconic in Michigan,
• 26:07
  Speaker 8: you know so much respect.
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: You know, we'll get an offer from him, it's a
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: big deal.
• 26:11
  Speaker 8: But he retired after what would have been my freshman year,
• 26:14
  Speaker 8: so they hired rich Rodriguez. I'm thinking Rich Rodriguez says,
• 26:18
  Speaker 8: even if we had offered Kirk Cousins of scholarship, I'm
• 26:21
  Speaker 8: not playing him like I'm gonna get my guy at
• 26:23
  Speaker 8: Nard Robinson, guy who's run, a guy who's athletics. So
• 26:26
  Speaker 8: I probably would have been transferring or been kind of
• 26:27
  Speaker 8: stuck behind somebody far more athletic than me. So it
• 26:30
  Speaker 8: all worked out because if they had hired Rich Rodriguez,
• 26:32
  Speaker 8: it wouldn't have been good for me.
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: I know that.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, that's true.
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: Fast forward, fast forward, after your Michigan State days. You're
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: drafted fourth round behind the chosen one, Robert RG three.
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: You know, we got to go down this rabbit hole
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: of what that transition was like when you started to
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: become you like that and kind of that dynamic of
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: climbing that ladder when you know that DC wanted RG
• 26:59
  Speaker 5: three to work out so bad.
• 27:02
  Speaker 6: Well, the way I always do it was my best.
• 27:05
  Speaker 8: Case scenario when I was happy with this scenario was
• 27:07
  Speaker 8: to play well in.
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: Pre season games in the third and fourth quarter.
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: That maybe another team takes notice.
• 27:12
  Speaker 8: And then after probably two to three years, I get
• 27:15
  Speaker 8: traded and I thought, that's a great deal and I.
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: Can go somewhere else.
• 27:19
  Speaker 8: I'm in a good spot and so I always felt
• 27:21
  Speaker 8: like that was a good scenario for me. I love
• 27:25
  Speaker 8: that I got to play for Mike Shanahan, so I thought,
• 27:27
  Speaker 8: I'm in a good spot here.
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: To kind of learn the ropes.
• 27:29
  Speaker 8: I thought it was awesome that I got to kind
• 27:30
  Speaker 8: of because I wasn't ready to play. Robert was ready
• 27:32
  Speaker 8: to play and he proved that being with C the year,
• 27:34
  Speaker 8: but I wasn't ready to play.
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: I needed to be able to sit and so it.
• 27:37
  Speaker 6: Kind of was a good fit I just never thought.
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: It being Washington.
• 27:40
  Speaker 8: And then as things played out, coaches changed and injuries.
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: Happened, and just life happens.
• 27:44
  Speaker 8: Is you know, suddenly I'm starting in Washington and then
• 27:48
  Speaker 8: I'm there starts for a few years. So this league
• 27:51
  Speaker 8: is crazy and you can say that, but when you
• 27:53
  Speaker 8: actually live it, it's a whole different deal. And yeah,
• 27:56
  Speaker 8: and you you heard me say you liked that. I
• 27:58
  Speaker 8: think in practice, long before I ever seen it.
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Do We had so much fun.
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: You said that before you did it, before the thing.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: We Yeah, we had a blast in the red redskin.
• 28:06
  Speaker 7: I mean we were always chipped.
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: We were always.
• 28:08
  Speaker 8: Surfing in ocage or surfing in training game. If I remember,
• 28:11
  Speaker 8: always looking back at the coaches defense and just.
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: Kind of running my mouth.
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, dude, you would run your mouth in like the
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: most fun loving way too. It's like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: oh yeah, man, god damn it, I won't even yeah, gosh,
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: you won't even curse.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right.
• 28:29
  Speaker 7: But so then when I did it.
• 28:31
  Speaker 8: When I did it in the game, I didn't think
• 28:33
  Speaker 8: anything on it because I had been doing it.
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: But I guess you forget it.
• 28:36
  Speaker 8: Sometimes there's cameras and sometimes there's not. When there's cameras
• 28:39
  Speaker 8: changes the whole game. And so uh, yeah it was
• 28:42
  Speaker 8: on camera. Next thing, you know, it's everywhere. Yeah, I
• 28:45
  Speaker 8: was just seeing me And sometimes, you know, I wish
• 28:47
  Speaker 8: I didn't know there were cameras around more often because
• 28:50
  Speaker 8: I feel like a different Kurt comes out. But sometimes
• 28:53
  Speaker 8: when the cameras are on, you're like guarded and you
• 28:55
  Speaker 8: just don't want to think you're put in your mouth,
• 28:56
  Speaker 8: especially in today's culture, and so you're just so protective
• 28:59
  Speaker 8: and nobody ever gets to see the real youth. So
• 29:01
  Speaker 8: that's why I appreciate the podcast, so you can just
• 29:03
  Speaker 8: kind of let your hair down and be yourself and.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Raise Yeah, man, when you have eighty seven million dollars guaranteed,
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: but you don't have to worry about my studio, no, honestly.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: Talking about that. You know, you're one.
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: You're like the only guy to have a guaranteed contract
• 29:17
  Speaker 5: of that like magnitude. Uh when people like, yeah, but
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: he was making bank on his franchise tag too, like
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: the Yeah, explain obviously you make a lot of money,
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: but explain that mentality And I don't even know if
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: it's pressure, Like you can walk me through this but
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: the dynamic that would go on the few years that
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: you're under the franchise tag, especially in a media market
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: like DC, Like I always think about the time we
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: were playing golf and your stuff's going on, and you're
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: talking about, you know, going to training camp.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: And you're obviously yeah, I'm definitely going to.
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: Training camp, and it's just so awkward being in some
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: of these standstill stages of a situation like that. Talk
• 29:50
  Speaker 5: about the mentality and the pressure that kind of came
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: with being a franchise tag guy year in and year.
• 29:56
  Speaker 8: Out, Yeah, you know, it's it kind of was what
• 30:01
  Speaker 8: it was. I just felt I kind of shrugged my
• 30:03
  Speaker 8: shoulders dead and said, look, there's a lot of different
• 30:06
  Speaker 8: ways to play this.
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: This is the way it's kind of played out.
• 30:09
  Speaker 8: I felt peats about the decision I made time, I
• 30:12
  Speaker 8: didn't feel unrest. In fact, if I had done anything different,
• 30:15
  Speaker 8: I probably would have felt unrest. So the fact that
• 30:17
  Speaker 8: I just felt eached and felt somewhat settled about the
• 30:20
  Speaker 8: decision I had made, even if it meant that I
• 30:23
  Speaker 8: was gonna have to be figuring it out again when
• 30:25
  Speaker 8: the season ended, I can't get it allowed me to
• 30:27
  Speaker 8: just kind.
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: Of play and not worry about it.
• 30:29
  Speaker 8: And I guess it just helps it that teams are
• 30:33
  Speaker 8: always looking for quarterback, it doesn't seem like they've got
• 30:36
  Speaker 8: an oversupply of them.
• 30:37
  Speaker 6: So I felt like, look, if I've shown I can play,
• 30:40
  Speaker 6: I can go year to year and and I just don't.
• 30:42
  Speaker 8: Feel like I'm risking all that much because between an
• 30:46
  Speaker 8: insurance policy and and the fact that team's need quarterback,
• 30:50
  Speaker 8: the mass would just say that I'm better off just
• 30:52
  Speaker 8: playing year to year and letting it play.
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: Out as it does.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: So obviously I look back now and I think it
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: worked out really well. But yeah, but everybody deals with that.
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: I mean when guys are.
• 31:02
  Speaker 8: Playing you know you you were undrafted, playing for Equanimenment,
• 31:05
  Speaker 8: fighting every year and like that.
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: That's pressure.
• 31:08
  Speaker 8: That's a grind in training camp to try to figure
• 31:10
  Speaker 8: out where your future is going.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, And dide I feel you your your
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: your mental fortitude about that. You guard your mind, you do,
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: you do a great job of that.
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: I've actually picked a lot of stuff from Bryan on
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: you know, learning to do that kind of stuff.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: But when you lose, when me and you when we
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: were losing.
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: Games and people are bringing that stuff up, you really
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: still felt at peace all the time, like there was
• 31:32
  Speaker 5: no there was no pressure around anything that thought.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: You know, I mean, I wish this, either team or
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: anything would have my back. You probably thought they did.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to talk you in any corner.
• 31:41
  Speaker 5: I'm just trying to fucking down and talk to the boy,
• 31:44
  Speaker 5: like we're at the training table swapping stories.
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 31:47
  Speaker 8: I felt like I felt like, yeah, certainly, you know, hey,
• 31:50
  Speaker 8: I wish this had been done differently. But look, there
• 31:53
  Speaker 8: were there were conversations, I mean with guys like Scott
• 31:56
  Speaker 8: mccluan where you just realized, hey, they have a certain
• 31:59
  Speaker 8: view point, there, certain position.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 32:01
  Speaker 8: I think even since then, Scott's been public about it, saying,
• 32:04
  Speaker 8: you know, I wanted to pay Kirk a certain amount
• 32:07
  Speaker 8: and I didn't want to pay him anymore, and you
• 32:09
  Speaker 8: know that that was that, and that said that's fine,
• 32:11
  Speaker 8: Like I don't care, that's fine, but I think the market,
• 32:14
  Speaker 8: if I was allowed to be a free agent, would
• 32:16
  Speaker 8: pay me more.
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: And so until you're willing to let me.
• 32:18
  Speaker 8: Go to the market and see what my value is,
• 32:20
  Speaker 8: maybe I'm wrong, maybe it's less, but I would like
• 32:22
  Speaker 8: to go to the market.
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: And if you're not going to let me. Then I'm
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: going to sit and wait until you do let me.
• 32:27
  Speaker 8: And then they decided, I guess eighteen, to let me
• 32:31
  Speaker 8: go to the market. And I went to the market
• 32:33
  Speaker 8: and I went to whatever the market dictated.
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: And that's just the way it is. That's just free agency.
• 32:38
  Speaker 8: It's not complicated.
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: It's just for two years they wouldn't let me go
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: to the market. I said, that's fine, you know, don't
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: don't let me go.
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: You know, was there any time you were like frustrated
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: with that situation, like let me just go, because there's
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: got to be something we said about sitting there and
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: having some sort of stability, like when you sell in Minnesota,
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: you're like, Okay, I know for the next three years,
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: I have, I have a home, I'm raising a family.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: Like I'm good, we can we can seat of shot
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: gos have a way of a foundation instead of being like,
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: you know, playing out your contract starting getting franchise tag,
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: getting franchise tag again. When you were going to that
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: second franchise tag, were you like, man, I wish they
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: just you know, obviously you probably just wish like, hey,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: just let me go so I can do my thing,
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: or did you know Redskins.
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I did.
• 33:22
  Speaker 8: I felt like if we won, I'd still be there.
• 33:25
  Speaker 8: You know, we went seven and nine a year before
• 33:27
  Speaker 8: I left. I just felt like the team said, hey,
• 33:29
  Speaker 8: you know, seven and nine isn't what we're trying to
• 33:31
  Speaker 8: be and uh uh and so let's let's move on.
• 33:34
  Speaker 8: And uh.
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: You know, I think if we had gone.
• 33:37
  Speaker 8: Eleven and five, I'd probably still be there. And uh
• 33:40
  Speaker 8: and that's fine. You know, life takes a different turns and.
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: And I feel like I'm in Minnesota for a reason
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: and I feel really good about it.
• 33:46
  Speaker 8: And you know, yeah, long term contracts are nice, but
• 33:49
  Speaker 8: as you guys know, things change so fast and you
• 33:54
  Speaker 8: just never really know.
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: Man. You mean, guys get traded.
• 33:57
  Speaker 8: You just never know what the what the next year
• 33:59
  Speaker 8: is gonna ring with injuries and stuff. It's just a
• 34:01
  Speaker 8: crazy league.
• 34:02
  Speaker 9: And even when you have a guaranteed contract, it's kind
• 34:04
  Speaker 9: of like I'm sitting there with no butterflies the four games.
• 34:07
  Speaker 8: I mean, you still got those those pre game jitters
• 34:09
  Speaker 8: like everybody else, because it matters to you, and it's
• 34:12
  Speaker 8: a it's a crazy league and it's it's a grind.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: We always joke about it because Rabel, like, we'll be
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: in our squad meetings and he'll kind of nobody. Nobody
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: is an exception to not chupat or used as an example,
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: like one time Taylor had an off day in practice
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: and raabels up there showing film the Boy to day
• 34:29
  Speaker 5: for the Boy and Vrabel showing film and he's like, hey, bro,
• 34:31
  Speaker 5: how much are we paying you?
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: Like you got to block this guy? Like shit like that.
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: So obviously, yeah, it's no non butterflies in the stomach.
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: But one thing I do, I do uh am curious
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: about how important was the guaranteed contract?
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Like you were one of the only guys, if not the.
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: Only guy, especially on that level, that has a guaranteed contract.
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: Everyone knows that you got offered more money by other
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: teams in the mix. I know Jets were one of them.
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: How important was that guaranteed contract? And what was kind
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: of the language you were having with your agent and stuff.
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: You just that was just non negotiable for you to
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: make that happen, and it kind of changed the layout
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: of hopefully moving forward. Guys kind of get more of
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: a deal that you have.
• 35:08
  Speaker 8: Well, this is why it's so important to have a
• 35:10
  Speaker 8: good agent who knows what you're doing, because they're just
• 35:12
  Speaker 8: like there's good and bad football players, there's good and
• 35:14
  Speaker 8: bad agents, and uh, you got to have a good agent.
• 35:17
  Speaker 8: And so my agent, right when the season ended and
• 35:19
  Speaker 8: I it looked like I'd probably be franchise tag got
• 35:22
  Speaker 8: spring for the first time. He said, the only way
• 35:25
  Speaker 8: you're not getting franchise tag, in my opinion, is if
• 35:27
  Speaker 8: you do a three year deal. If the Redskins are
• 35:28
  Speaker 8: willing to do a three year deal, it's fully guaranteed.
• 35:30
  Speaker 8: And so that was that was basically he started the
• 35:33
  Speaker 8: conversation right away that that was his vision. And obviously
• 35:36
  Speaker 8: the numbers were a lot numbers were a lot lower
• 35:39
  Speaker 8: at that point because salary cap was lower and it
• 35:41
  Speaker 8: was a few years ago. But that was his vision
• 35:44
  Speaker 8: all along, and I just don't believe that, you know,
• 35:47
  Speaker 8: the Redskins agreed with that vision or caught out of
• 35:49
  Speaker 8: that vision again, which is fine, that's their prerogative.
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: And we went on and it was just kind of
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: that same.
• 35:54
  Speaker 8: Focus of let's try to do a three year deal,
• 35:55
  Speaker 8: fully guaranteed with whoever you know is in the conversation,
• 35:59
  Speaker 8: and and you know, fortunately the Vikings were willing to
• 36:02
  Speaker 8: do that.
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: As well, and that made it work.
• 36:04
  Speaker 8: And you know, we took a little less per year
• 36:07
  Speaker 8: to get that, and that's fine. You got to give
• 36:09
  Speaker 8: some to get some, And ultimately I felt like taking
• 36:11
  Speaker 8: a little less per year actually made some sense, you know,
• 36:14
  Speaker 8: to help create a little bit of salary cap room and.
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: Just you know, you know, be fair to the rest
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: of the locker room. So I think it worked out
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: for a lot of reasons. And yeah, I think it
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: worked for a lot of reasons.
• 36:24
  Speaker 8: And time will tell, you know, if that's the best
• 36:26
  Speaker 8: structure to do in the future, depending on how well
• 36:28
  Speaker 8: I play in what situation I'm in at that time.
• 36:30
  Speaker 8: But it was something my agent brought up, but I said, hey,
• 36:33
  Speaker 8: I'm all for it. It's kind of weird that every
• 36:34
  Speaker 8: other professional sports league seems to have fully guaranteed contracts
• 36:37
  Speaker 8: and we don't, so let's try to create that a
• 36:39
  Speaker 8: little bit. And I always felt like it's only going
• 36:41
  Speaker 8: to make a difference if everybody comes after me choose
• 36:43
  Speaker 8: to do that same structure. But you know the reality
• 36:47
  Speaker 8: is that you know, Aaron and Matt Ryan and throwing
• 36:49
  Speaker 8: the guys spot after me, that just wasn't the structure
• 36:51
  Speaker 8: they supposed to.
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: Do and that's fine.
• 36:53
  Speaker 8: They get more, you know, I guess they get more
• 36:54
  Speaker 8: dollars per year, and then they give up to guarantees
• 36:57
  Speaker 8: and that's okay by them, I guess. But the guarantee
• 37:00
  Speaker 8: at least in this deal, we're just something I wanted.
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: To try and see we could do it.
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And if you if you heard in your answer,
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: like you know, maybe it sorry to take a little
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: less money so we can get more guys in the
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: locker room. Did you just throw me a mill on
• 37:09
  Speaker 5: the side. I'll come play for you guys for free.
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: I would love to have you.
• 37:13
  Speaker 7: Actually, I may have to get.
• 37:16
  Speaker 8: This.
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: He's to let me tell you, I had to get
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: this in at some point.
• 37:23
  Speaker 7: Now is your time of dreams.
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you know him, I know him. A lot of
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: people out there probably don't know him. Will Compston.
• 37:30
  Speaker 6: In all my years high school, college, Thros is.
• 37:33
  Speaker 8: The best, most dynamic leader I've ever played with.
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: And I'll just let that send sit there and just
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: let it be.
• 37:43
  Speaker 7: I don't need to expound out.
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: It too much. But the reality is he is a
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: natural leader.
• 37:47
  Speaker 8: He gets up in the morning, rolls out of bed,
• 37:50
  Speaker 8: and he leaves with his personality, with.
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: His work, ethic with his approach to professionalism. That's who
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: he is.
• 37:57
  Speaker 8: And you see his fun side here in the podcast,
• 37:59
  Speaker 8: but when he's down the field, he plays with heart
• 38:02
  Speaker 8: when you leave, when he brings people together from different
• 38:04
  Speaker 8: backgrounds and he connects to the locker room and he
• 38:06
  Speaker 8: makes it fun and he brings the soft side and
• 38:08
  Speaker 8: a hard side to work and I love it. So
• 38:11
  Speaker 8: that's why I'm on this podcast now with the respect
• 38:13
  Speaker 8: I have for Will. And uh, there's.
• 38:15
  Speaker 7: Thirty two teams out there, there's about twenty nine.
• 38:18
  Speaker 4: If probably don't know him that well, take you take
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: a look at him, dude.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: I love that. I appreciate you. Taylor's just staring at
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: Taylor's staring at me.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: Oh you guys, the way Will's acted the less great guy.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: But no stopping before you before you compliment, because you
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: don't need to because you're probably wrong. Let me let
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: me just say, as much as I hate to a minute,
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: you're absolutely right. Will does have the work ethic. He
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: does everything right, and it's not his fault.
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: He's white. You know, God got it.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: That's why I love that. Do we have the podcast
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: because we can say.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: Shita, you gotta hell, you can't fight the guy.
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: But no, you're right, dude. I think Will and I.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: I mean I know for a fact, Will and I
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: in the beginning of this whole thing, before the podcast
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: before I think we like we linked up like three
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: days in him being with the Titans.
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: I see what you see, man, He works his ass off.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: He's a great guy, and he's willing to have fun
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: with the boys, but he knows how to be a leader.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: He knows how to go into a locker room.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: And have fun and at the same time go in
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: the field chirp the boys and also get a lot
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: of stuff done. So I think, well, the guy, the
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: fact that you're making Yeah, did I appreciate both of
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: you guys?
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: One thing I want.
• 39:25
  Speaker 8: To If I'm a GM, I may only pay him
• 39:30
  Speaker 8: weak minimum, but.
• 39:30
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna he's in.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: My locker room. Hey, man, he's he's grit, super gritty,
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: lunch pail to work first and last out, high, high,
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: high motor, even though I get very tired quickly, but
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: apparently I have a high motor.
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: That's funny. How structured is your life still? Do you
• 39:49
  Speaker 5: still do every fifteen minutes as a written down?
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: You know what?
• 39:52
  Speaker 6: Man?
• 39:52
  Speaker 8: That kind of took its on, you know, don't let
• 39:55
  Speaker 8: get in a way of a good story.
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: But I did that initially because.
• 39:59
  Speaker 8: My wife, you know, wanted me to have a little
• 40:01
  Speaker 8: more of a plan. She felt like I was, you know,
• 40:03
  Speaker 8: it was hard for her.
• 40:04
  Speaker 7: I was never present.
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: I was kind of even when I was home, I was.
• 40:06
  Speaker 8: At work, if you know what I mean, absolutely, well,
• 40:09
  Speaker 8: can you kind of can you kind of plan it
• 40:10
  Speaker 8: out so that, you know, I know, when we can
• 40:12
  Speaker 8: have time together. So I kind of sat down and.
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: Said, all right, let's go fifteen minutes through the day
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: from get up to go to bed. Did that for
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: the first year. You know, there was the second year
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: of our marriage, and it really helped.
• 40:21
  Speaker 8: And so I'll do a lot of questions about, well,
• 40:23
  Speaker 8: why did you play better this year?
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: What happened?
• 40:25
  Speaker 8: I said, well, you know, I think I have a
• 40:26
  Speaker 8: little more structure, little more routine planning that out help.
• 40:29
  Speaker 8: Next thing, you know, it was like Cousins is psychotic.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: He plans every every minute, absycle path killer every yeah.
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: And then and then what's funny is like I've.
• 40:38
  Speaker 8: Heard I've heard Tom Brady kind of does the same
• 40:41
  Speaker 8: thing or has done something like that.
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: In terms of planning ahead, and if you win, then you're.
• 40:45
  Speaker 8: Like, oh my goodness, he said the professionally, he planed
• 40:47
  Speaker 8: it out.
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: And then when you go seven and nine and do that,
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: he's a weirdo. He's too rigid. He can't play.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: And yeah, he's got to get he's got to get
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: more loose. He's got to be more loose. How's that shame?

• 42:47
  Speaker 8: and you know that whole thing. And so I'm getting
• 42:50
  Speaker 8: close to you know, my my oldest probably needs a
• 42:52
  Speaker 8: few more years. But uh, if I could, if I
• 42:54
  Speaker 8: could realize that dream and then retire, I'd be a
• 42:57
  Speaker 8: pretty happy man at retirement.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: I love that, dude.
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, one more years, man, you're you might play with
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: one of your kids.
• 43:04
  Speaker 7: Being a quarterback, you never know.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: You did a hell of a job. But getting only
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: three years on a deal, what's next?
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: Where are you going?
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: What's next for me?
• 43:16
  Speaker 6: For this summer, for life, for life?
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: After the nights you play for Minnesota Vikings? What do
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: you want to play next? Go back to the Redskins?
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: You know? But man, here's what I learned. Here's what
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: I learned, and you don't know this, so you have
• 43:25
  Speaker 4: to do it. I say, you're talking.
• 43:26
  Speaker 8: About playing one year deals earlier. It's way harder to
• 43:30
  Speaker 8: leave a city, a.
• 43:32
  Speaker 7: System, teammates, the locker room.
• 43:34
  Speaker 8: That you know, and move across the country and start over,
• 43:37
  Speaker 8: even if it is on a long term deal. Doubt,
• 43:39
  Speaker 8: and to play than to play in a place you've
• 43:41
  Speaker 8: already been on success at one year deals, that's a
• 43:44
  Speaker 8: lot easier. So I have no desire to have to
• 43:47
  Speaker 8: get up and pack up and move again and start over.
• 43:49
  Speaker 8: You know, if I had my brothers, I would be
• 43:51
  Speaker 8: in Minnesota for the long haul.
• 43:53
  Speaker 4: But I got to earn that. And there's probably a
• 43:55
  Speaker 4: lot of Viking fans who were hoping in Brano. I
• 43:57
  Speaker 4: don't end up in Minnesota for the long haul. I'm hoping.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Hell, yeah, you go twelve and four. Kirk Cousins is
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: the missing piece. He's gonna take us to the top. God,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: I'm sure you get enough of that too.
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: I get what you're saying.
• 44:09
  Speaker 6: I have.
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: I haven't had to go through a transition of moving
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: to a different team.
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: But they're gonna need They're gonna need a fucking army
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: to get me out of here. Dude, I've I've played
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: on my roots in Nashville. I'm not going anywhere, my babies.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: I'm staying as long as I gotta drag it. I'll
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: get dragged out of that place. I gotta figure it out.
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: Redskins friend, Kirk Cousins, Yeah, he makes a lot of money. Sure, Titans.
• 44:29
  Speaker 5: I hey, they shipped the boy off. Okay, whatever, Hey Taylor,
• 44:32
  Speaker 5: he's he's gonna sign a big deal. This is my
• 44:34
  Speaker 5: next opportunity.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: Stop musing me. Yeah, this conversation earlier. Get back to
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: Kirk's coattails. I'm done with it. I know right you're
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: you're about to have a third son because I'm giving
• 44:46

• 45:16
  Speaker 4: high school.
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: Dude, I know it's a lot of fun, but I
• 45:20
  Speaker 5: know that is a grind trying to do a couple camps,
• 45:22
  Speaker 5: like I had one in Missouri and then did Nebraska.
• 45:25
  Speaker 5: After I did Nebraska, I was like, hey, I want
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: to go back to just doing one because this is
• 45:28
  Speaker 5: a lot of work.
• 45:29
  Speaker 6: It's a lot of work.
• 45:30
  Speaker 8: It's a lot of time, and you're doing the summer,
• 45:32
  Speaker 8: so you're outside and the heat of the day all day.
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: But uh, we have fun with it.

  Speaker 4: Yeah, man, we get a lot of positive feedback. I
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: love it.
• 45:42
  Speaker 8: I think it's something we kind of stumbled into after
• 45:44
  Speaker 8: my rookie year that I just kind of thought of
• 45:46
  Speaker 8: and he falls. Over the years, we've added elements to it.
• 45:49
  Speaker 8: But uh, it's been a blast to do it and
• 45:52
  Speaker 8: and hopefully I'm hoping we can do it long after
• 45:54
  Speaker 8: I'm done playing my goal. I tell the other coaches
• 45:56
  Speaker 8: the camp, I say, we got to make this stamp
• 45:59

• 46:20
  Speaker 8: from the franchise tags and the and the and then
• 46:23
  Speaker 8: three year contract in Minnesota, it just became clear that,
• 46:26
  Speaker 8: you know, we ought to start a foundation. And we
• 46:28
  Speaker 8: had already been you know, very generous, but at you know,
• 46:32
  Speaker 8: smaller levels and not as public.
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: And then uh, you know.
• 46:35
  Speaker 8: This foundation kind of get us opportunity to hopefully you know,
