Episode 22: Today's Preparation...

It's the summer. I have switched locations on our podcast on the daily since I'm all over the place, as are you, So let's check in where are you this week? Aaron? I am upstairs in our house in Montana because we did a speed test and this, for some reason, seems to have better WiFi up here. So I'm still in Montana. Where are you? I am an good old lake Arrowhead O cute, okay, fine, little cottage? You think you know the one? I little one, little one. I read little

no no, the little one. I read it. Yeah, I'm up here. I just got back from New York. I'm a did you just hear that? Out of Nisson. Did you hear that? What was it? Listen? Do you hear that? I'm trying to like Tyrone. It sounds like Jurassic Park. That Tyranno source Rex is coming through the door. Do you hear it? No, I don't hear it. Oh wow, we've got full blown bulldozers out front doing pavement because we're in a new community out here. Yeah, the entire

hall shakes. You might as well think you're in California with earthquakes, or you pretend you're a character in Jurassic Park. Oh my god, like the first one. By the way, I mean no offense to any of the people in the newer ones. The soundtrack of Jurassic Park. That first one was amazing. I'm gonna be honest, I've never seen the second one. Oh tell me, you're not hearing this. My whole house is shaking. No, I'm not hearing it, but maybe I'm hearing I don't know. Um, okay, well

that's great. You're in Montana. I'm like Carol Head officially out of New York. Um, and I don't know. I mean, that's what's going on over in my neck of the woods. Moving to Nashville. So we all know how much longer in Montana, I'm disclosed. Oh okay, okay, fair enough. Um I had a really fun week last week. I'll do a little self plug here. Great had a photo shoot for our line of where in Boston for fanatics and it was kind of like the first time I got

to see, um, wow, my house is shaking. First time I got to see um a lot of our stuff, you know, like with the NFL on it, and you know, we did a whole thing. It was really I'm so excited for you to get your Seahawks. It's gonna be great. I had the L s U sweat it on from last season stuff and Kyle goes, oh, did Ryan Rossillo give that to you? Because he's a big L. S U fan. I go, no, this is where and he goes, oh, my gosh, it's so cute. I go and to think

this is even last season. Just stay tuned for next season. I'm excited to see all of that. Um well, that's how do you? How did your move go? Do you have any good stories from the move? You move went great? You know, I mean, I'll I'll plug it all day long. Um er who helped us move? Oh? My I didn't lift a finger errand I was literally like in that apartment. I was bummed. I have to say, it was only in New York for a year and a half. A

year of that was the pandemic. I really didn't get the full New York experience, and that kind of bums me out because New York is back, and especially now coming back to California with these masks. We won't get into the politics of it. To each its own, but I just I was really excited that I didn't have to worry about it anymore. And in New York, you don't know one's they're good over there. That I was a little bit bummed out about. But I am excited

to move to Nashville. You know. I loved me some country music and I love a karaoke bar. But I also like it's cool and it's hip and something different. So I'll stay between l A and Nashville. But that was good. But yeah, I mean I think that at this point in my life, how many do you know how many times you've moved? Um, I did a big move when I lived with my parents to Atlanta, and then I moved to New York, and then I moved to California, So only three times, not that big of

a deal. Oh my god, I have moved so many times. I mean many times. From high school to college, I moved five times. Then there's one too. Yeah, so because I went to school like community college for the first years. Then I went up to Santa Barbara. Then I moved back to l A. Then I went to Dinner, but then I came back to l A. Then I went to Connecticut. Then I came back like I have lived in a hundred different places. But I like that because you know me, I get bored easily, So I'm good.

But moving to pain in the ass this time, no problem. I was swipe up, you know what I mean. I mean, I'm I ain't too brod to beg for some melt ever, you know what I mean. So Montana, as I always like to refer to it, is like Kellerman's. So anyone that's ever seen Dirty Dancing, it's um, you can sing the song because you're better at this than I am. With those kinds of kilmans. We came to get I don't know anymore. Okay, but that's anyone that's seen the

movie Dirty. Where's Kenny yep, that's well that was her body. Holy audi audi audi. I mean I remember watching that being like, that's a woman. And the way that you write about Robbie sorry that the line that is a line. That's the boyfriend that does something to her and then is a mean guy and then Patrick Swayzey has to come in and save the day. Um, we're doing a film review. Oh, speaking of a film review. Hey, we

got word. Guess who's on the podcast next week, everybody, because if you're bored with this one, stick around next Matt Damon. Heyo, Matt Damon has a new movie coming out, so we get to interview. And I'm very excited about this, Yes, very thankful, very blown away, very kind of nervous, excited to see the movie all the things. Yeah, wait, why are you nervous? I don't know. It's Matt Damon and

it's kind of outside my world. Like I feel fine with all the athletes and so forth, and like, you know, I'll go to sports right away because that's my comfort zone. As my Hyaena comes up the stairs. But that way moving because he was coming up the stairs might be um no, but yeah, that's your world, that's your entertainment tonight, but as long as that's what I always found weird, Okay, let's get into this. And then I got a story for you after the break. Um, when I dabbled in

a little entertainment. When I was with ESPN, I worked on some g M A. I did some red carpet stuff. When actors don't know sports. I asked an actor one time, he shall remain nameless. He claims he's a huge sports fan, and the can't give away the city, and I can't give away the guy. Okay, So he claims he's a big sports fan. And the day I had to interview him on a red carpet, one of the biggest trades had just happened in the history of the franchise, and

I was Jack and so he comes up. Plus I you know, he's hot, and I was excited to talk to about him. Gosh, I want to give a clue so bad and sounds like yeah god. Oh. So anyways, he comes down the red carpet and I was like, I didn't even I feel more comfortable talking about sports. So I was so excited. I knew this trade went down and I was like, Hey, what did you think about this, this, and this that just happened with your team. And he's like what And I was like, oh my gosh,

you didn't know. And I showed him the breaking news and I was like, this happened. He goes, yeah, I guess they'll be good. And I was like, you're a liar. You're not even a real fan. You're a liar. Did you say that? That would be an incredible interview, But I imagine if you did, what a liar. He likes to be photographs at the games, he likes to be in the jerseys, but he didn't know Jack crud about

this trade that went down. I was very disappointed. Pointed, you can't share who this is because now I'm dying to know. To make a long story even longer. I just feel better when actors and actress is no sports and I feel like maybe we have a canockon. Well, that's exactly why you shouldn't be nervous about Matt Damon, because if there's the actor that is a well known sports fan, I mean, his Boston roots are deep, him

and Ben and there. I remember I had an interview been a lot of times because there was a lot of movies out during my time at Extra that he was in as there's like one every other one to get in. No, that was my career, not just kidding. Um the I would always talk to him about sports because here's the other thing. Yes, they want to promote the movie there, and they worked really hard and you know, spend a lot of time and effort and energy developing

their character. But they also to my previous point about being asked the same questions over and over again, I don't even like a little reprieve in some questions that don't have anything to do about what they've totally think about all day long. Um So hold on, we have to take a quick break here where we have to take a break. We will be back with more calm down podcasts and Aaron's going to reveal who the actor is that's a liar. We'll be back with Okay, we're back.

How's the microphone coming along? Golly? I mean, this whole tangled situation is not good over here? Movie Tangled, of course I have I haven't Mandy Moore, I love it. What was the movie I was watching? Hi, welcome back. Everybody's to calm down. I will not calm down about the fact that I know what it was. I've been on a lot of flights lately. Preferred airline character or character too, character carrier. I love Delta. If you're listening, it's actually how I met Kyle because I only fly

Delta and he only flies Delta. That's how we met. Got it swipe up? Um? What was again? Oh? Princess Diaries. I had never seen Princess Diaries, and so I watched it on the plane the other day. And Mandy Moore was sassy in that movie. It was Anne Hathaway, now I know, but Mandy More was like the popular girl and she was really really mean to Anne Hathaway. Although Mandy Moore's hair did look great, very full, a lot of blowout. I don't. I think it's like early nineties

whatever the case was. Anyways, caller wasn't. It was very similar to mine right now yellow, So I definitely need a purple shampoo. But we're not here to talk about my deficiencies. She's from Orlando, Florida. Candy one of my favorite songs. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, your recalling really good when it comes and stuff like that. Huh um. Alright, Well, as we told everybody, you're in Montana. I am in

like Arrowhead and we're enjoying our summer. Um. We were on a tangent about Kellerman and then I started going a different direction because in case you guys don't remember, I said, we're interviewing Matt Damon next week. But Kellerman's where you're at right now, always has an activity going on. So for the listeners and the viewers, in on an activity this week that you can share with us, because a lot of n d as fly around over there in your fans. Yeah, there's not a lot of chatting

about what really happens here. I'll let everyone know this. I had my first, uh near death experience not lying this weekend. Aaron, I'm not kidding. I didn't tell me. M Yeah, I haven't told you this. You know why. As soon as it happened, I go, I'm saving it for the podcast. Oh my god, she really is a podcast professional. I like this. I'm on the edge. So I'll set the scene. We're at the restaurant having a lunch. My mom and sister and dad had just come into town.

My two girlfriends were there. Jarrett was there as well. Ashley, my girlfriend and my girlfriend Sam were there and it was just a fun lunch and we're just talking and everybody's having a good time. The rose is going and that's not why I almost died. But uh, we're just chatting, we're having fun, and um, all of a sudden, what was my order? It was a crispy chicken sandwich with tater Todds. Yes, it was. I'm sitting there and I took a bite and my girlfriend made a joke, Ashley.

I laughed, and my sandwich got lodged in my throat and I was like, I'm fine, and I didn't say oh, I couldn't say anything, and I was like, it's in my throat and I had a couple of seconds of not breathing, and then I'm like I tried to swallow and I couldn't and I was like, all of a sudden,

my whole face like I just started sweating. I could not breathe, and I I was just looking and looking and looking, and finally Ashley went to say something again and I went and part of it like like I was trying to come out, but it was like throw up a little bit. I jumped up. I ran outside because I was like if I puke whatever, this like, you know, this is gonna be bad in this restaurant. And I'm like this, and I'm like this, and my sister runs out and she's like, what's wrong, what's wrong?

And I'm holy sh it, and my sister grabbed me. I vomited all in a napkin, puked up my chicken sandwich. Dude, when I tell you, I was sweating, like in between queen where you're what is this area where you get blood drawn, like right there in your arms. It was so insane. And I was telling everybody after that if I had just stopped and like stopped panic and just made myself throw up, I couldn't get this thing out of my throat. I couldn't breathe, I couldn't talk. Like.

It was like a few minutes of like, so this is how it's gonna go. Not to mention death by chicken sandwich, crispy chicken sandwich. Not to mention the Rams new quarterback and his lovely wife, Kelly Stafford, or sitting at the bar as this is going down. So I'm thinking, as I'm about to croak, holy shit, it's going to be in front of Matt Stafford and his wife. Oh my God, which, by the way, Kelly, being as sweet as she is, would have come over and given you

the home with her fantastic arms. Yeah, exactly, mean those will get that crispy chicken out real quick. Wait. Also, my throat, throat was so raw for like a day and a half because like I was like, couldn't breathe. Then it came back up scraped me. It was I've never felt that helpless before in my life. And I was like, drink my entire glass of rose afterwards. But holy shit, I'm sorry you had such a traumatic experience but so traumatic. Hey, I'm glad you're alive to tell

the story at least podcast listeners and yours. Okay, But also, was there any moment where you thought to yourself, I'm choking, or were you like, oh my god, what do I do now? Like what was the thought of, like I'm going to die or what's happening? Like what was the thought process? I just couldn't swallow, and then I couldn't breathe, and I was like and then Ash was saying something and I literally felt so bad. I've apologized to her NonStop.

I'm sorry for putre. I mean, it just went right at her and she goes, wow, I just I thought it was being really funny and you were reacting that way, and I just couldn't figure out what was going to happen next. And I just panicked, like I could not breathe and I couldn't swallow. It was crazy. I don't think I've ever had I mean, when you have a sore throat and it's hard to swallow. And I don't have any like you know or anything like that, but that is scary and it probably felt like an eternity

that you were like a state of panic. Yeah, watch by the stafford as we laughed and I said, well, sorry if I just disgusted you. They were oblivious. They were like, wait, what happened? Oh my god, Oh my god. I kind of think if I've ever had an experience like that, I haven't. I've had a near death experience where I thought I was like cramping in the water.

I'd like went out for like a long swim. Yeah, and it was like one of those contacts scary and you don't panic that that is one of those things with like again I don't have any children, not to tell anyone what to do, but like putting your kids in swim lessons early on, very helpful because they always when you're in a situation like that, like, don't panic, it makes it worse. That's a scary way, Like I'm not into that. That's so scary. Only thing I can

think of, I don't know. I'm just thankful that I don't have any like you know. Oh and I have another word where almost thought was gonna die and oh actually I do actually have one of those in Mexico. But that's another God, how did I know this involved you in another country another time? You know what I mean? Oh my god, So Kellerman's no dance parties, just you know, vomit parties. I felt so bad for the waiter as well. I was like, he's like, are you okay? Because he

looked at me and he goes, what's wrong? What's wrong? I'm like like grabbing my throat and he's like and then then I handed. Actually I think Jared took the puke not getting threw it away because no one need to see that. We'll never look at a Crispy Chicken sandwich the same way again, which is a real bummer because I love them. You know, what you need to do like Jarrett, you know, and you're like a little kid, and they like cut up the chicken for you. Yeah,

they're cutting it up. Don't panic Aaron. By the way, we need to recap your time in Montana. Okay, breaking out with the WiFi. You've gotten bitten by the horse fly. You've now almost died. When does the relaxing portion of the program kicking There have there have been some high party, some great parts and altitude. No, hey, but yeah that was that was when I did not tell you about because it was a very very scary. Man. Um, you know what else is scary? Our lives speaking of near death. No,

our lives are about to be over. Football is upon us. I saw sweet baby what's his name? Um? Oh god, why am I blanking Andrew Cassiliano Ciliana back to you? Um? He tweeted what a couple like sixteen days or something until first of all, and we can say that we love Andrew. Andrew. Your count down to three sixty five because you're always working. Okay, some of us do take a day off here there. But yeah, your life, miss Andrews, is about to be back on that Delta Airlines flight.

A lot watching Princess Diaries, so I know I've never seen it. But yeah, away we go about ready to start all the articles. I've got to start studying for Dallas Pittsburgh right away. I tried studying the other day, but there really weren't any articles. Yeah, because I guess the guys. I think they're reporting soon, right, Yeah, they report. I think the twenty six, I think is what it was. So, um, I just got back from Portland. I was doing with

Themican Sue, tell me about it. He's great, just had babies, just had twin baby boys, Egypt, got married. This guy had a full year. I thought I had a full year. The last year he got married, he won a Super Bowl and he had twin boys. So his life is good.

But he's so impressive. We were talking about um. You know, I covered him very early on in my career because I was assigned to a lot of NFC North games, and since I was new to the business, I was on the Z crew, which means I got a Detroit Lions game every week because I was coming from a college football game and the Big Ten country and I went straight over and the Lions were and sixteen, so

we were commiserating together about that season. But also he was saying to me like he's like, I didn't want to leave Detroit, like he loved it. He wanted to stay, but there is a lot of things and that's why he left. But we were also talking about his decision to go to Tampa and all the things that you know, what did he say, Well, I mean, he just he was he's Bruce Arians. Like who doesn't love Bruce Arians

or lose your booze exactly? But in Dominican sue, you know, obviously had the incident early on in his career in the game against Green Bay. And I am a firm believer in this as somebody who has had some mistakes in my life. Your mistakes should not define who you are, Okay, Like that's like a moment, but that is not who you are. And so I think that you know, obviously, that reputation has stayed with him far longer than it should.

This guy has donated two point six million dollars to the University of Nebraska and by the way, not even he was also listened how is this about this? He was listed as for anyone that doesn't know and domin Can sue plays for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He is just so smart, so smart one of his like his philanthropic and his business endeavors are incredible. He's got the wealth of knowledge. And see that's the cool thing, um, And I know you know this better than anyone about

working in sports. It's like, yeah, those guys put on a jersey, but that's not all that they are, and their tenure in the league or any league that the said athlete is in, using that time to forecast and plan their life for after football, and all the things that he's doing to help financial literacy in his community because these young kids not knowing when they get their first job how to save money and all these things. Anyways, my tangent is I love and Dominican sue. He jacked

up to start another year. He's like, I'm ready for another one, baby. And this is a guy who fed it into a twelfth year in the NFL and he just got that chip, his first one, and he's like, christ, I want another one. And I'm like, oh that see that that that that gets to me, Like these ideas, these athletes who could go their whole career and maybe never win a championship, but then once they do that Brady itch of like, let's get another one and another one,

another one. So anyway, so he was saying that they were about to report to camp and all that kind of stuff. So, yeah, it always here before we know it, it is, I remember another to continue the endemic and Zoo love fest. I spoke to him before one of the playoff games we did, and he was just so thoughtful and just sweet and just really took the time. You know, these guys are so busy during the week, and I usually do private calls with um, solo calls

with some of these guys. So I have different information from Joe and Troy, right because we're on a big call with everybody and we all get to talk to Tom together. We all talked to Aaron together, we all talked to the decord, the offensive coordinator, the head coach. But I like to get information that Joe and Troy don't hear because they already know everything. And what am

I there for? Maybe I can add something. So, uh, Sue was great, and he had told me something about going after a quarterback and you know, make sure you just oh god, you're gonna love this. That's how I said it. I said it in the game, so it's not like you know it was. It was information that I wasn't allowed to say. But we're talking about Rogers, right and and he's had a battle with Rogers forever. As mentioned he played twelve years and yeah, and played

in Detroit. So he always just said like, look, you know, we know he's going to get the ball out. We know he's going to get rid of the ball. But what you gotta do just make sure he knows you're there even when the ball's out. Just tap him a little bit and be like, hey, Bud, how you doing right here? I'm right here every time, like every time, I'm right here, a roj I'm right here. I'm right here.

And so and then he kind of shared something that I you know, I wouldn't I didn't say on air, but that was just the point, like Aaron smart, but just let him know, just let him know. And uh, there was a play in that game in the NFC Championship that it was exactly how he told me it would go if they, you know, played a certain way. He ran over to that sideline and I'm elevated and I'm up in the first row looking over on the defensive bench and he looked over and he goes, a, A,

what I tell you? And I was like, that so good, right, it's so good. And he was talking about so he lost his first Super Bowl when remember he went to the Rams, he went to my l A and they lost to Brady. And it's always like, so it's much better to be on the team with Brady because you walk out with a championship rings. So just the difference. I mean, his job is to literally, to your previous point,

get after quarterbacks. So you know he's hunted Tom Brady for all these years and then like be on his team. So it was interesting to hear that perspective of it too. But I also I always independent of him. And for anyone that doesn't like sports, sorry, UM, maybe this conversation is boring you, but I find it really interesting too. When you just were talking about your prep work, Um, a lot of people don't know like how that works

for you. So you know, obviously, if you are listening to this podcast and you're interested in our lives, UM, just help people quickly, like how your week goes. Like let's say we're into the heat of the season and you've got both Thursday and Sunday, so like, what does your week look like in terms of like prep and how that all goes down? I find it really interesting too, when you just we're talking about your prep work. What does your week look like in terms of like prep

and how that all goes down. I usually call you during my first cup of coffee to bitch about something, so there's that. Ask you what you're wearing or if I could borrow something. We do share clothes, which I don't think people know, and I love that we do. We share. Yeah, we try to share tops. I can't wear pants. I'm much bigger on the bottom than you are.

Don't do any interjection, these are facts, but yeah, we share a lot of clothes, which is great because I mean, oh, and I can't wear the same shoes up side nine. And you have the smallest foot for how tall you are. It's I'm so jealous. Your hands your feet should be on my body and my hands and my I mean I have man hands and nights six and a half. I'm like a seven and a half squeeze into. But I can't even wear a heel on the field anyways. It has to be a flat like there are no

girls that want to do this for a living. Take those heels off on the sideline and take your wedge off to is, put on a flat, throw on a sneaker and call it a day. Take that wedge off, and don't make me walk by you in that wedge, because what are we doing? I remember the first couple of years I wanted to be all cute, and then after that I was like, oh no, we just look ridiculous. What are we wearing? And it's not that we're judging people, but it is a safety hats are down there, there's

there's cords. You're running away from guys. You're it's like, it's crazy. You actually can't run. I mean I can. I can run in heels. And even I'm like, no, we're ditch the heels. Okay, we don't need to ask you go into the sand. Yeah, remember all those little beads of the astro turk that like get into your shoes after a while. Okay, um, quickly, no, actually no, quickly. It it's our podcast. You know your week. We talked to each other at the beginning way, But what's the

prep situation when you have two games? So really, if you think about it. My weepekends on a Monday because I'm coming home from a Sunday game. So Monday morning, we're home, I don't want to open my suitcase. I don't even want to look at it. And it's just like diving in, right, you kind of have to do a recap of what happened on Sunday. A lot of times I'm flying during the Sunday night game, I can

watch it or I'm looking at Twitter. But you're also working during the other games as well, So my TVs on NFL Network, I'm watching all the NFL shows to kind of just see all the highlights. We'll see what the stories are and crack open the laptop and don't put it down. We get kind of a huge packet sent to us daily of all the articles on the teams.

And I'll tell you what, when you are doing a Dallas Cowboys game, or you were doing a New York Giants game, or a Philadelphia Eagles game, that packet, because there's so many writers and so many articles written about that market, it is so long to get through. So you've got to get through it. And then we usually start having our calls on Tuesday for our Thursday game, and that consists of probably the home team, and if you think about it, Tuesday for a Thursday game, they

haven't even put their game plan in. So you're talking to these guys they just played on Sunday and they're like, wait, who are we playing? So you're just thinking, yeah, totally, I'm like where am I going? It's crazy. I mean, honestly, it's like your hair is on fire. You are prepping for four teams at one time. You are trying to get guys on the phone. Joe Troy, myself, Christina Pink or if it's the game with Tom Ornaldi, we're all on the phone. We're talking to a team. We talked

to probably about four guys. Sometimes on a good day that last two hours. Sometimes on a day you're at the mercy of the athletes and the coaches. If they have a meeting, if they have a press thing they have to do, you're sitting on the phone and you're waiting. You may not be happy about it, but it's the way it is. And your phone better be on mute because if you've got to go tinkle, you don't need Bruce arians here and you go potty, you know you

actually wouldn't care. He'd be one of he'd be like, how go yeah, um, so yeah, you're on the phone all day and then you know, as stupid as it sounds, and it reminds me of our conversation with Nicolon. You gotta worry about what you're wearing. What's the weather. I've never been more obsessed with weather in my entire life. If it's a rain game, if it's a snow game, if it's a blizzard game, Am I even getting in if there's bad weather? You know? Am I wearing a

liner under my hat? Am I wearing my snow? But it's like it's stupid, crazy, but it's so much fun and we love it. Wait, this is a really dumb but it was one of the greatest pieces of advice that Charles Davis ever gave me. The notes, the notes, but the plastic that to me when I first started

with him, it's the best. She'll send me those plastic covers for my notes absent for comlutely anyone that's starting out or anyone that's doing it, and it doesn't didn't have Charles Davis to give you this piece of advice. Those plastic you know what were they like part of like presentation holders or whatever goes with you be because the second that that rain comes, and it could be depending obviously where you're doing a game, a slight DRIs

or whatever. I learned the hard way on those Bad Boys as it's like bleeding down and I'm like, that's that again. Anyway. My whole thing too, is like I like to write down, Like I logged the whole game, which I put on our Calm Down podcast Instagram. Check it out by the way, if you wanna just see some fun, silliness whatever. But when it's raining and I'm trying to log the game, that's a nightmare. I saw

Belichick do this. Use a pencil because you can write a little better than it then a pen But then in cold temp games, pens don't work. Ball points definitely don't work, so like a sharpie works better. It's just like, oh and then here's another little piece of a nugget. And if anyone wants to give me an endorsement for this, I am down to party. I use my phone a lot, right because I don't have a stats person. I check up a lot of the stats on my phone. Well, you know what, a pain in the acid is to

like take your glove off use it. I've been using those pens with like the little tip on it that you can type in on your phone with your glove on. I'll tell you what, I never got a WiFi signal half the time in those day. They haven't gotten better either. So another thing that I'm curious, and I'm we'll have plenty of time to talk about this because I know we need to wrap up soon. Just interested, like what the protocol is going to be for us a sideline reporters, Like,

I mean, I'm assuming I'm on the field. I hope I am. I you know, speaking to a couple of people with the RAMS and they were saying they're going to our front row is going to be taken, so I hope you're not sitting in it, which would be hell. Um. So yeah, I mean it'll be interesting. I had it. Um I'll say quickly because yeah, you know we're wrapping up, but um. I interviewed Rodrigo Blanketship, who's the kicker for the Indianapolis Colt, and he was saying, like, I'm like

to see the glasses. Yeah, adorable, Right, So the whole thing it's a feature we're doing on NFL films, the story behind the glasses, all the stuff. Um, but I was like, dude, you've never I mean, he went to Georgia. He knows SEC football and the crowd noise and all that kind of stuff, but in the NFL, he's never

had a crowd. And so I'm like, all the different variables for positions that people play right where crowd noise is so helpful or because your mental so you know, of course, being from Seattle, like The twelfth Man, we pride ourselves on, like us, you know, being able to stop a defense because it's so noisy and you can't and the offense can't hear the play. God they miss their fans this year area. So there's a lot of

different things that I'm excited to see. How this season will you know, be affected now with the addition of fans once again, Ladies and gentlemen.
