Our kicking a soccer ball around underneath all these Arenas a real and they're all doing the exact same thing you're -- their don't know before a game and it's actually kind of fun to watch them. Weakness that they grew up playing in the game their whole lives -- and they are all seemingly pretty darn good too. The same -- don't get the blood flow and get the -- Lewis some different kind of warmed you know stair master elliptical just. Gets old after awhile -- it did you spend the bye week driving on the shoulders from where Massachusetts is there I didn't know exactly how I can Oklahoma -- able to stay in you know regular lane and I have to worry about traffic acre anything like so. Supposed to optimize how long did you go back to report. Opts out there like Thursday evening -- and then back and actors Sunday evening. I was just completely away from football just something different then refresh right exactly. Then issues come and hang on mountain relaxing and then. And you know a few things on the community and stuff like the that this guy you know professional athletes such creatures of habit. But I think professional football players maybe more than most because your schedule is just -- locked in you know. We let this day we watch film we have this day off we do this. So attend a road trip is a little different for professional football players have you had any lengthy -- game road trips -- any senior pastor.
Thumb have you know Meyer my Rick here in Miami with the same type deal or replace Seattle and then when played -- San -- the next week instead of flying back restated their for the week and one not so. You know I've I've had some experience with that are never. You know assists another week and I just it and do all.
Same stuff just at a different place right exactly there but it and it I guess in some respects. If it's almost easier. I am and I don't mean it's good a good thing to be away from your family got a wife and kids at home but. It's easier you're not Horry and about how I gotta do this again is that what you gotta -- and I can't do -- You know it is nice note does you know you walk outside and you know you're on the bus and you go in. You know everything's done and regiment and and things like -- Certainly so. Just -- and a.

You know thank them you know disorder Webster's or -- slide you know all sudden. Also in their my best friend my you know we did this and as we can you talk and I'd rather I'd -- hear -- from. Now I mean it's this -- to bed you know. I mean on it's almost like though you players are bigger deal back in Oklahoma then then the meters -- by bills you know.
So you're close to Norman I mean or is it just it's all over the state no matter where.
Yeah I mean. In the you know -- like thirty minutes away from Oakland city SO you know everybody that I knew grope with -- you were you know just about slow. -- side I can -- a flight from them about it they are mobile and the tires here about a manager did you dream of going there at all. As as a big fan you know grown now -- They were -- you're now. Him in the blue chip persons. And they elected Meehan. And there -- two ways.
But they had stopped going to remember that often -- around here. With that you know Holloway and I was in Barry switzer said that option.
A sort of sorry you know group load them you know a tournament -- and now. The late eighties college football is obviously not as the dealer here but I don't think people here. Understand what a big deal you football is holes they doubled home. Slew it's like it's like Patriots and Red Sox combined and that's -- is -- mean news whistled and there's no. Proteins you know so it's like that's it is now well there is now -- a -- while teams you know. You look that look few. Yeah I mean I'm not sure the logo looks like inning but the name -- time. Puzzled -- one little weak this one's. I mean eight under and knows the name of -- my you know my name my sixth grade basketball I don't know -- Just like market -- the most horrible slump and out there you know some little different -- does -- sort of a Major League soccer sound to it does that he had this -- that kind of franchise names and ML last right yeah. -- so it's I don't know is just one those Tacoma. Broaden our. Our disposal -- them up -- then. -- different.
Seattle like singular names and we've got to singularly got to have an ass on god has given us are Patriots at Dolphins don't -- under heat. -- especially if you're going to be the Utah Jazz. Utah.

I would think as a professional athlete you guys have incredible knowledge base of what you have to do but you have to be instinctive to you can't be out there thinking okay what is this play. Do you take that conversation you've had with Cassell doesn't help you in the game I mean it seems like absolutely it's. You know you be thinking about that it would kind of take away from your instinct doesn't.
I mean is that an old instincts are plain and and a lot of it's you know reacting to them but. A lot of it is you know you've talked it through. And they'd done this thing he talked about so it becomes a society you know -- reacting to be directing two in the way we're both feel or on the same page.
