" Well -- go to great. Presented to municipal board I have had done work with the NFL network are. Just went out there had will be the floor and on toward Super Bowl and they figured you know up to Bob Costas show. And eight feet kind of work itself follows --"

" Not to tell me about the process -- just the back and forth over. Your last days as a player and and thinking about retirement I mean how how did that whole thing play out."

" Welcome -- I -- eight civic which is June 1 and it backing first. The problem. With an open up an epic portrait camps start in game I actually use our efforts will be what really wanted to see how bill. Article pretty -- out. You don't -- grass though once. That start -- for. But they're not started sore muscles -- spirits -- apparently. All of a sudden I didn't start this in the I -- really -- And not original -- never felt this -- war net buyer last. You know what I got a terrible walk away will help probably about 70%. From the opposite compact from the injury you know what I'm not here or in another shot mildly. It is or port Gigabit walk around and McCain -- my life."

" One thing I thought you might end up missing was brought to our attention yesterday we were at the patriots golf tournament. We talked events. Vince Wilfork and Ty Warren and both said great things about US a friend. And a teammate and guys who stepped away from the game it's that part that they find the hardest to give up."

" No question I mean. Just a lot of people aren't in the locker room at times before firepower. On -- you know. Family members and watch in the church are seen at just. It really. The maturation of those young guys let me now. Politically that it would fuel storage stuff like that caught up -- the fact in the war battle. Out there -- you know blah. Is that old adage but I'm not a bit bulk of I mean they've been so much to involve almost convinced. -- from a little -- do coveted block from now and -- one -- apple and game and in just he has progressed aggression and and now you know problem on the road in this that a -- bella is if his stories and that knowledge that he brought to regain it. Mr. craft in about. On the practice and Richard Seymour and all it got Brady on the interception -- on the regular. You know I'll just missed all that and on -- Monday you've got -- the much what twenty minutes."

" You're not using like ten of their day to day now. Yet as an ugly mail it and sometimes -- 1015 minutes that a 21."

" You know what they miss the most though when when I saw Bruschi beat Brady in the long drive contest yesterday at at 287 I thought Harrison got that in his bag."

" probably -- hit three -- that long but I have to prove sheet effects have."

" Other great said he cheated. They or use and range balls they said Bruschi was used in new balls Brady said he cheated to win."

" Brady print -- call to -- oh okay."

" Not like it's not like in army Brady Q okay -- ban on models circuits to long. Well they're partners up to New York law creating the bulk of ordered alcohol and war."

" Not be we we -- we we watch football at Simon and we have favored broadcasters -- least favorite. What are you what are you looking for from the job we know we're looking for but what are you looking to -- the job."

" They'll -- other than you know we just did -- have an opportunity -- erratic game. It really into with the game and really I'm looking for and it's not only political -- a tremendous man that. You know what about ball out. Parcells just tremendous may have had a lot of -- very Arctic with. You know all be so much -- little -- already. I really agree. Straightforward. Honest approach and really feel if fifteen years there's football league understanding what we're all you don't let me just -- does now I'm not try it fashion but the truth out to people so no longer -- people it's certainly a -- or technical chart as well. Now. You know that brutally honest with -- up -- with well. You know -- old model it if you or so any -- ought -- whopping ball."

" Well it do you have is there a a broadcaster that. In in and had to be football and any sport that June you're gonna model yourself after or that you respect. And the way they approach analysis."

" My you know on -- young in the game I I'm not looking at one trying to pattern myself. I don't know I think it's more natural. The just be myself up always ministries have always been honest. And you know it. When it's not screw up off I've always been able to get a rough up messed up and get the job it'll orbit and they are not single pro. In there just explain in simple terms are trying to get out of trying to beat some. Markets select which I'm not just got -- rate blue collar -- out. On at home that you know just you know watches football what we just think it's simple would be very forthright and --"

" You know break down. He's. An analyst futility that you but he ball well he's not afraid you -- So -- always watched well respected but you know what is going to be the wire. It straight toward damage well."

" They're going to be difficult he talked about you know sometimes there's got to be honest even if your teammates ability to beat it to be difficult that. Call your team about teammates out your former teammates out on national TV."

" Thought I mean. Obviously when you have written that won't call for an outlet that saints are apt to be separated out they could -- in. -- Others are and things like that you always make backup point will it be true and that's -- that's my job. Should be and share artists. In the only way up there's. Well apparently. You if you play well sometimes.

Always going to be honest and just in Italy and try to beat plastic."

" They obviously you don't care of his Peyton Manning YouTube you brought the -- In their first conference call talking about him -- which I agree with. -- that's somethin'. As a quarterback of that team probably shouldn't be calling out his. This coaching staff in June but you have no problem doing that right across from his former coach."

" But I mean it's it's true I mean actually shot which should mean yeah are you kidding me think Tom Brady's. You know in the middle of the summer genetic screening -- Get upset -- the law or law and our. Well. In the media are talking Google got anything it's just certain distractions.

You know those numbers out there because. An army play just like everyone else here right all of -- all -- it was all it was. --"

" Do you think you're you're suspension in 2007 will factor into Hall of Fame discussion and analysis. Disturbing."

" Probably so I mean. Some people they would of people it will mean that it is and before that -- have been. Happy at what you don't feel that he couldn't he can't pick away well -- we want to make -- and Odyssey well. You know it's because -- it is yet result not have -- before is that mentioned that happened so I served my punishment. -- never built a drop.

That set up to them and you know whatever data and it might whatever they decide -- it would be the one thing about that retreat. All day in a poll rate and that's something -- recap cultures and apology equipment managers. Doctors traitors all or -- are -- whopping eight -- take away and that's what they'll never tree."
