Speaker 1: All right, Our next guest is here and I am reading the bio this time because it is so home with me first and foremost role Tide, because we are here on the building, sharing the stage right in here with one of the greatest all time players from the University of Alabama.
00:01:47
Speaker 2: He played nine years in the NFL.
00:01:50
Speaker 1: He is a rare breed of being a running back who has won the NFL MVP. Yes he has, and he's in this house all time leading rusher. After football, he's poured himself into his business and charitable work with the Standalone Foundation, along with being a dad.
00:02:09
Speaker 2: To a quote unquote very large family.
00:02:12
Speaker 1: My man, running back number thirty seven, and you're on the field number one in your hearts, Sean Alexander.
00:02:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, roll time, my man.
00:02:21
Speaker 2: Time. Welcome. I'm not saying that. Welcome, Welcome to the show, you know show.
00:02:30
Speaker 1: I just will say this and we can move on from Alabama pretty fast. But I always know it's a big game, or that I'm always around Royalty whenever I get to see Sean on the sidelines.
00:02:38
Speaker 2: He's always been amazing to me. He's he was a great teammate.
00:02:41
Speaker 1: He accomplished so much for the University of Alabama, and I love just seeing him back.
00:02:45
Speaker 2: And I don't know how.
00:02:46
Speaker 1: Many young people get to appreciate you, especially when I just read through your accolades of how great you were at what you did.
00:02:52
Speaker 3: Now, thank you for saying that.
00:02:53
Speaker 4: You know, it was weird, you know a car That day, both Pete Carroll and Nick Saban both decide to, you know, retire, people calling me shoing, how you feel, how you feel? Shy you all right? My brother called, man, I gotta take the shoe strings out your shoes. Man, how are you feeling right now? You know, because when I retire, Nick becomes the head coach of Alabama and Pete becomes the head coach of Seattle, and so they really much. That whole seventeen year run has been my years of retirement, and so it's been it's been amazing. They both open the doors wide for me to come be a part of you know, in those seventeen years, I only had ten more kids, giving a tough number thirteen now and so so family's big.
00:03:33
Speaker 3: Bama football is big Seahawk football.
00:03:35
Speaker 5: Big.
00:03:35
Speaker 3: My boys don't even understand what it's like for Bama or Seattle.
00:03:37
Speaker 5: Not to win it, you know what I mean.
00:03:39
Speaker 4: They're like, oh, being three two more years normal, something gonna happen, you know, so so yeah, so so now.
00:03:44
Speaker 3: But thank you.
00:03:45
Speaker 4: I've loved my time in Alabama getting to see you guys, you know, go play.
00:03:50
Speaker 3: Play in the league and retire, you know what I mean.
00:03:53
Speaker 4: Like it's it was just great Nick saving open those doors and uh and Pete care opened up those doors.
00:03:57
Speaker 3: It was just really wonderful.
00:03:59
Speaker 1: So for me, I think one of the best awards that I won probably in my career was when I won Man of the Year.
00:04:04
Speaker 2: But like Rom said when he read when he read your bio in an.
00:04:09
Speaker 1: MVP running back that won MVP, Yeah, I feel like it's hard to do that because the we could just say it the quarterbacks they always win MVP. Oh now it should just be the quarterback award. But you won that, and I feel like that's hard to do. As a running back, it is, and you had an amazing season How did that feel to win that award being a running back.
00:04:30
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:04:31
Speaker 4: So that year, the first game of the season, I had about fourteen carries in about sixty or seventy yards, and on the last play we're playing Jacksonville, we try to throw this hell Mary yeah, and the defensive end clip hasselbacks shoulder, So a shoulder was hurt.
00:04:47
Speaker 3: Next week, twenty.
00:04:49
Speaker 4: Something caries yard two, next week Hunter some ton of something yards, two more touchdowns. And then the coach was like, oh, you know, even though his man was playing, he was kind of tweaking the offense to kind of be like gadget passes and then run the ball with Sean And so we just rolled that all the way through there and that eighteen eighty twenty eight touchdowns. I sat out of nine quarters that year. Nine really I would have had two thousand someth yard.
00:05:17
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:05:18
Speaker 4: I played up till halftime against the Eagles. They had a big Reggie White.
00:05:22
Load full transcript
Speaker 3: It was awesome.
00:05:22
Speaker 4: So some of my heroes, Reggie White was being honored Sunday Night football. I had three touchdowns at halftime. They was like, oh, we're taking you out. Were going to the Cup. You ain't gonna get it. On our dime, and you know, and and so my last last game of season to get the rushing title, to make sure I want it.
00:05:40
Speaker 3: You know, they took me out at halftime.
00:05:41
Speaker 4: So you know, there was four quarters there, and then there was five other games I didn't play in the fourth quarter. We were just it was a rare year where we'd beat teams that bad in the NFL. Right, And you know, I still say, yeah, I'd probably had another four hundred yards in them nine quarters, definitely, and now I'd have had the greatest rushing season ever.
00:05:59
Speaker 1: There's for honors, and notably they announced the twenty twenty three class of the Hall of Fame. Clas excuse me, I think personally you.
00:06:11
Speaker 2: Need to be in there.
00:06:12
Speaker 1: You should have had your jacket a long time ago. So what are your what are your thoughts on not having that jacket?
00:06:19
Speaker 3: You know, I try not to make it everything.
00:06:21
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know, you work so hard to go do your stuff that's special, and you know, we had about ninety nine touchdownsand five years, you know what I mean. So like you want to be like, can we just drop the mic and walk off? Like yeah, you know, yeah, but so you wait the process. But I definitely think that you have to be special to get in the Hall of Fame, right, you have to take your team to places that they haven't gone. And I know, before I got there, people come to Seattle, get a fish dinner and a victory. And then by the time, they only had three division championships in the first twenty six years of playing. And then I get there and now it's known like loudest fans, you ain't gonna beat them in there, and they stadium so like that was the stuff that we built. And I laughed because you know, you get Russell and Bobby, you know, I retired, Pete comes in, Russell Russell, Russell, Bobby Wagner, Russell Wilson come in and they're like, ooh, this water is already warm. I'm like, yeah, all y'all gotta do is just tip the water a little bit young, Yes, And that's what they did. So they get all the cool that they deserve to win in our first Super Bowl. But we'd already showed them how to get there, how to be champions, how to play championship football at home, how to win on the road. I think that all those things, I think all those things set the stage for me to be able to get in. And at the same time, if you say it too much, then they look at you like you funny, you know what I mean. So so you know, my one of my favorite running backs is Barry Sanders, and everybody understands why. He had ninety nine career touchdowns Russian touchdowns, and so that was my goal. I can get to one hundred, and so that's what I did.
00:07:46
Speaker
2: That's awesome.
00:07:47
Speaker 1: I didn't know that was a Goalieg, that's crazy, but I mean that's beautiful. I'd like to and look, I think you were great in the league, but you'll never be better than what you were LSU your freshman year. What you just took over the whole college football space by storm. You had the big dipass kind of hanging out on the side.
00:08:06
Speaker 2: It was like the ugly It was hilarious.
00:08:11
Speaker 1: But yes, that part and so accomplishing everything that you did at the University of Alabama at in Seattle as a professional player, could you maybe talk about what it feels like to have the Shawn Alexander Award to go to the most impressive or the best freshman in college football.
00:08:30
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it was really cool.
00:08:31
Speaker 4: You know if you Uh, I tell people, if you're the best player in the country, you win the Heisman. If you're the best freshman, you win to Shawn Alexander. And it's been, uh, it's been with a great honor, you know about. This is our sixth year. Caleb Downs won it this year. But about seven years ago, the Football Writers Association one of their one of their main presidents, Mike Griffith. He said, he was a beat writer at Alabama when I was there. He went on from there to Tennessee and now he's Georgia's main writer. I said, I said, I don't know if it's if it's us players and you you know that they get their juice from. But he said, hey man, we got to put you around football. I just retired, and he said, love to get you a part of picking the freshman team. And so I picked the all freshman team with him a bunch of other writers. And then the next year he said, yeah, we're thinking about naming it after somebody, somebody whose name is relevant and somebody who's you know, at the end of day, not a stinker. They'd be young enough that they could be around the players, but their name is solid. And I said, man, let me think about who I can help you all with.
00:09:29
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?
00:09:30
Speaker 4: He said, Nashan, like, we've been monitoring you for a year. It's gonna be you. And I was like, oh, man, what an honor. And so Trevor Lawrence was the first winner. Kenneth Gainswell, running back for the Eagles, he was the second winner. Great, and I got to beat all these guys and hear their stories and when they're young too, yeah, so I get to touch them at eighteen and nineteen and watch them grow to the men they are. Will Anderson wanted. Brock Bauers was the fourth winner. Drake May So it's really cool because Brock and Drake they'll both hopefully be top ten ten players this year, you know, so it's gonna be for them.
00:10:00
Speaker 3: And then Caleb Downs won it last.
00:10:01
Speaker 4: Year, and you just get crazy stories, you know, like you know, I remember, you know when saving a size you retired. Caleb and I are talking on the phone one day and then all of a sudden, he's like, man, everybody's blowing my phone. All yeah, they're blowing on my phone too, and we FaceTime, so you know, he had that little blur and then he looks up and says, hey, did we just pick a new coach. I was like, oh my gosh. We're like, hey, we call you to back. We hang up the phone and it's all the alumni has been calling me. It's all players calling him, and so you get to have these moments with all these young players. So the award is great. We built it on four things. Talent Number one, you turn that film and you're like, ooh, I want him on my team. You know, a character, you know what I mean, Like, you ain't got to be Mary Poppins, you know what I mean, But I need you to have some character. Yeah, I'm too young. I can't you get in trouble him my name. Then number three, we say an ambassador. We talked to the schools like man and am Bashard's one that speaks on behalf of somebody else. So hey, is he an ambassador to your school? And we just do the work, you know what I mean. And then before we call a legend. And so since they're eighteen nineteen years old, you know, we don't know, but we we assume and try to find out is this kid going to be a pro. And we've been proud with all our five our six now current winners, you know, from starting from Trevor Lawrence. It's been pretty awesome.
00:11:15
Speaker 5: Yeah.
00:11:15
Speaker 1: So I know Roman out we both do a lot of nonprofit work with our foundations. And I know you've been working with the Stand Together Foundation. Yeah, Cafe Momentum. Yeah, talk about what's that been like? Man, that's been like working.
00:11:29
Speaker 3: It's been just wonderful. So I've been with them.
00:11:31
Speaker 4: I've been with Standing Together Foundation about five years being an ambassador for them. It's about eight hundred of some of the most successful men, women, and philanthropic leaders in the country. I mean, like, you know, I tell you some of the stories of these people, you'd be like, oh, that's who they are. I've been really honored to help some of them people you know, spend their money, use their leadership to go impact some of the country's biggest issues and poverty. My heart was into a juvenile justice. Y'all be around me, y'all know, I'm a mentor at heart.
00:11:59
Speaker 5: You know what I mean.
00:12:00
Speaker 4: And so so I love pouring into people and watching them mature into what they've been created to be. And Kafine Momentium just touched my heart. The chef, Chad Hauser's award winning chef. He he left his restaurant and started Calf of Minium because he did a he did a little cooking session at a juvenile place and touched his heart because he had this belief that most people have. All these kids are trouble. These kids probably did it, they didn't, and he got to hear their stories and he was like he was ashamed of himself. But instead of like most people just be like, Okay, I guess I gotta do better, he was like, I'm gonna do something about it. He started calf Momentium. It's a year internship, paid internship, and the kids
come in, they learn how to cook. Some of them are front front door. They rotate through the through the whole year, from cooking to interest, to management to the chef in the back. But the secret sauce as he brings in now I call him the aunties and uncles, even psychologists, social workers, tutors. And what you're seeing is reciviotism in our country for most places is about forty five to fifty percent. That means they're going to go back to prison again. The thousands of Catherine wnhim kids, it's eleven percent. And so I said, well, why don't we just put one of these in every NFL city that we have? And so, you know what, if we changed how we traded and treated these kids that made problems, that probably should get some punishment, and we ain't got a little little whipping at the head out what time? They need some discipline. But to be labeled as something like a throwaway, that's what they call most these kids. A throwway for something you did at fourteen, fifteen sixty. Hey, I don't want them to know what I did at sixteen, yeah, labory something forever we didn't have these phones. Yeah right, you know what I'm saying. And so so we now have we started with Dallas, We now have started opened up Pittsburgh Steelers Pittsburgh one. We've opened one in Nashville this year.
00:13:54
Speaker 3: It's Denver.
00:13:54
Speaker 4: The Broncos jumped in, they put money in, they put some some of their stuff in. We've also got a land of ready to go twenty end of twenty four, twenty five, Houston, Miami, Tampa, LA starts.
00:14:06
Speaker 3: All the works. Chicago is in the talks right now.
00:14:09
Speaker 4: So we're getting all the goal is you go from one to three, three to six, six to twelve, you know what I mean. And we when we slowly just change how we view these kids that may promise. At the end of the day, people need dads, people need moms, people need aunties and uncles, and when you put them around it, we already got the proof these kids actually become successful people.
00:14:29
Speaker 2: It takes the village, as they say it does.
00:14:31
Speaker 1: Now, Sean, I got to know this because I think I know you, but I don't know this answer.
00:14:36
Speaker 2: What was your first welcome to the NFL moment?
00:14:39
Speaker 3: Oh?
00:14:39
Speaker 4: Wow, oh man, I would tell you on the good side. Was my second year playing against the Raiders. Now, it was a big game Sunday night, and I break this eighty eight yard touchdown run and that's when I thought, oh, I'm fast, though, Sean, enough this place about to have a problem with shot, you know, But I remember getting head. I tell you my hardest hit was by Roy Williams. And you know how football is. You know when you hit that hole when the college opens up, you're like, ah, just not being speed. You know that whole open up. In the pros, somebody's coming to field that's on purpose. That's said that's perfect. That whole opened up and I was like, wow, this is not cut back. And it was like
Roy and I was like, oh, and I hit him like but I stepped into it, so I hate him. Ah, you know everybody's you know, our teams up up. Yeah, I feel that, you know, they hyping up?
00:15:32
Speaker 5: Man?
00:15:33
Speaker 2: What was your feeling?
00:15:34
Speaker 4: Man?
00:15:35
Speaker 2: My body?
00:15:39
Speaker 4: I said, oh, you know, And then you know, we talk with Roy a little bit later.
00:15:43
Speaker 3: He's like, oh, you know, I know it's a good hit.
00:15:44
Speaker 5: I don't even know.
00:15:45
Speaker 3: I don't even remember.
00:15:46
Speaker 2: I'm like, boy, did you stay in the game or did you come out?
00:15:49
Speaker 6: Now?
00:15:49
Speaker 4: I stay in the game, you know, like you know, you know, you just wired a little different. You're like, now you're gonna to knock me out, to take me out of the game, you know what I mean.
00:15:57
Speaker 3: But he hit me good.
00:15:59
Speaker 2: I mean good, he hit.
00:16:00
Speaker 3: Me good enough to be like, okay, you know which one of.
00:16:06
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah it happened. Oh my goodness, Oh my goodness. So I know one of my best seasons was twenty twelve. It was my MVP year or whatever if you want to call it that. I remember one game that I just was I don't know, probably one of my best games. What was your your moment in your in your MVP season, Like, what moment stands out the most of you?
00:16:32
Speaker 4: You know, we play, you know, so we we that time we beat the Eagles on Sunday Night football. That's when I knew we had a super Bowl team. You know, I had three touchdowns in the first half. They took me out and I also knew that. That's when I was like, oh man, I'm not gonna get the two thousand yards because I knew that they were going to start taking me out of games. Yeah, to make sure I didn't get hit at the end the end of the games because we was we was that squad man. We was putting teams under. But I but I remember, and I can't forget. You know, one of the worst things to do as a play against somebody that wants that heat. Oh yeah, and they don't know it, you know what I mean. Well, that's what happened my second year when we played the Minnesota Vikings. See in high school, you know, there wasn't no cell phones, so you going around and they'd be like, oh man, hey, you know Lou Holst comes in from Notre Dame. Hey, you three guys come, man, you know I got mister west Virginia, mister Ohio, mister Kentucky.
00:17:23
Speaker 3: That's why I'm mister Kentucky.
00:17:24
Speaker 5: Man.
00:17:25
Speaker 3: You three come, we gonna win that shipship three years in the row. I'm like, well why not? Four? Oh, y'all ain't gonna be here four you? That was Lou Holst talking. Well.
00:17:33
Speaker 4: I didn't know it was until we all got older and we all went to different schools. One mister west Virginia went to Notre Dame and then and then transferred out. Mister Ohio went to Michigan, and mister Kentucky went to Alabama.
00:17:45
Speaker 3: We didn't
know.
00:17:45
Speaker 4: We just all, hey, I hope I see you, blah blah blah blah, until we all realized after we got in college who we was. Mister west Virginia was Randy Moss, Mister Ohio was Charles Woodson, and so we all now you know today we'd all went to the same school. I've been at Bamblely, you know what I mean. But we but we all went to different schools. Well, Randy goes to his career signs to Notre Dame, Florida State and the Marshall they're all hyping him up. Charles wins the Heisman, goes over there, gets the pros. He's turning this chair, and I'm over here, like, you know, I want the SCC, you know, SC Player of the Year.
00:18:18
Speaker 3: But I'm like, hold on, say, I'm the show up on this thing, you know what I mean. So so we playing the Vikings.
00:18:23
Speaker 4: It's our second year, it's my show now, and they're all talking about Randy Moss and I'm like, oh, they don't know what they about to happen. I scored five touchdowns in the first half, the only time it's ever been done. And that's when I was like, oh, yeah, let's go. I was like, I was so hungry for that game, and no one knew I had to add that fire up on here. I ain't gonna let everybody know I'm going off the night. And man, when that thing was over, Randy was like, yo, bro, we're going on. Yeah, Rady, We're going on with all that, you know. But I want because I did not want my high school buddy to upstage me, you know what I mean. He was already starting to make that name and I was like, oh, and that was my beginning, you know, what I mean.
00:19:00
Speaker 3: After that, they was all like, oh, they got to run it back in Seattle. It started with that night.
00:19:04
Speaker 2: That's funny. As you talk.
00:19:06
Speaker 1: Charles Woodson right behind us, so he's just walking over there. Look at that.
00:19:09
Speaker 3: That's how it is.
00:19:10
Speaker 2: That's how it is. What does matter? Yeah, that's how it is.
00:19:13
Speaker 1: Here I've written down how you scored those five touchdowns? All right, but I want to know this though. I want to know you have thirteen kids. Can you reel off? I know you can. Yeah, I want the names in the ages of thirteen, from oldest to youngest.
00:19:28
Speaker 4: Go. So, Having's twenty, she's a sophomore at Liberty. Trinity is eighteen. She's a freshman at Churney. She runs track Eden as a junior. She's sixteen. So that's my three girls. Eating was a sophtomore All American in track. But she there today. My boys Joseph and Justice fourteen and twelve, get ready. And then then after them, we thought, oh we got three girls and two boys.
00:19:50
Speaker 5: It's gotten good.
00:19:51
Speaker 4: Two more girls came up Temple and Honor. They eleven and ten right now, did awesome great athletes, funny smart, you know them.
00:20:00
Speaker 3: The Queen Bees right there.

Speaker 4: Okay, Then we thought, okay, next to Jededdigh, he's eight, the most alpha dude. He come in here, be like, is that my seat? You're like, do you eight mantle? You know what I mean? Uh So, then so then we had five girls in a row. So I thought, man, we had five girls, three boys. Man, we're gonna get these two more boys and we don't no five girls in a row. So Tora is the one that we lost. She was seventy days old when she passed. Us said, so I still say that I had thirteen kids because she counts.

Speaker 1: I just think it's amazing that you have that many kids. You already they already have personalities, You already know who they are.
00:20:53
Speaker 4: Oh for sure, man, it's so funny because you know, once you have them in there there it's a lot of work, no doubt, no doubt, but you value those one on one times all. So, like part of the normal week is everybody has a one on one date with Dad, whether it's thirty minutes or an hour. And we rotated like so who gets the one block of time? So I got to be very intentional with that time. But everybody gets to one on one day. Sometimes it's watching a video, like a fifteen minute video and then talking about it. Sometimes it's driving off and getting a little slurpy and and having a conversation. And it just changes, like depending on the age of the kid. Like what we're talking about from right from from issues boys, you know what I mean, Like, look that I needed somebody like you I need they gonna have to be wealthy like.
00:21:40
Speaker 3: About that character like all that stuff.
00:21:42
Speaker 4: When I'm tall them, I'm be like, it don't sound right when you say that, you know, and to the boys just you know, football and sports and faith, you know, just learning, Hey, well dad, would you you know, what'd you do?

Speaker 1: Our next guest none other than Peanuts Hall of Fame teammate Brian Keith Erlacker.
00:24:14
Speaker 5: Keith Erlacker.
00:24:30
Speaker 1: This next guest is one of my favorite teammates of all time. I probably don't need this, but I'm gonna read it anyway. Played his entire career in Chicago thirteen years. Is considered one of the greatest players in the team's history. Elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in twenty eighteen. My guy, the biggest dummy I know, mister, Brian Urlacker.
00:24:50
Speaker 6: Brian keith Lacker, Oh, Anthony, shut up, dumby.
00:24:55
Speaker 5: Do you want your name was Anthony? Yes?
00:24:56
Speaker 2: I did?
00:24:57
Speaker 5: Okay.
00:24:57
Speaker 1: I just think it's funny because I've heard dunt dummy at least twelve times since you guys have both been on the stag.
00:25:03
Speaker 5: He has an issue with words.
00:25:05
Speaker 6: You are very insulting. Yes, the maker of golf. The best golf equipment there is the custom clubs. What's cut like design fitted for you?
00:25:15
Speaker 2: Like fitted for me?
00:25:16
Speaker 5: Well, most you.
00:25:17
Speaker 2: Don't play golf, of you play, I don't play golf.
00:25:20
Speaker 6: So you know that most clubs are fitted for are custom made for you because you're going I'm talking to so you go in and you get fitted, you know, and they sized them to you and stuff like that, and then you're going to go. So, yes, Charles, they are off custom.
00:25:30
Speaker 2: Psg specifically is like everything you have a hookup? I need a contact.
00:25:36
Speaker 5: Yes, we have a hookup, definitely, Leila right there.
00:25:39
Speaker 1: All right, tell me your first impression of this young man when you guys were teammates, first impression.
00:25:45
Speaker 5: As a rookie. Yes, two thousand three is your rookie, right, sir Roman.
00:25:49
Speaker 6: So we played Randy Moss used to be in our division and this and Charles was good.
00:25:53
Speaker 5: He started from day one.
00:25:54
Speaker 6: He was always a good player, always running to the ball, always talking, always blabbing. But we played the vikings. Was it late and season? We didn't to that point we didn't have answer for Randy Moss. Well, we put Charles versus him one on one and it was late in the game they had to score it. They throw a pass up to Randy Moss and a Charles inception it Uh. I didn't run it back, but he got a nice player on the ball.
00:26:16
Speaker 5: I knew right then.
00:26:17
Speaker 6: And we had the guy you know, you know, you know, you guys get your like and I knew before then. But man, put him on one on one versus Randy Moss rookie year, Randy was established already, you knew you had a dude right there because great locker room guy. Great you can see. But there's a little banter going back and forth. But we had fun, man, and we be. Another thing that if you put put a guy who's in the Hall of Fame and then put Charles number up there, and don't don't put their names there, and pick who's in the Hall of Fame, I bet you'd pick him because just come from his stats. If you didn't know his name, that's that's how good a career he had. And there doesn't get enough of respect for that.
00:26:52
Speaker 2: I received you.
00:26:55
Speaker 6: If you didn't know for him that you like, if you put a Hall of Fame guy there and put your numbers next to him. They probably pick you for those beating the Hall of Fames, right, I assume I would assume your numbers are stupid and you got something named after you. They're still doing it. Every time I watch TV they talk about the peanut punch. They still talk about it. I agree, it's crazy.
00:27:13
Speaker 1: I'm excited because I think you will have a chance to go into the Hall of Fame at some point, hopefully closer than later.
00:27:20
Speaker 2: But we'll have to see. None of us have a vote. Maybe you got a vote.
00:27:23
Speaker 6: I wish I had a vote. I have a lot more teammates than would be in. You'd be in, or you at least be closer to being in. That thing is weird how they do that, man, Yes, I don't understand that.
00:27:34
Speaker 2: So the two thousand and six that was our Super Bowl year. We're in Arizona.
00:27:40
Speaker 5: You know the game we are the Monday night.
00:27:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you remember most about that game?
00:27:46
Speaker 5: The halftime speech from Owen was amazing, dude, O G.
00:27:51
Speaker 6: Yeah, he said, we're not going to We're gonna get physical, We're gonna beat them up. We're not I don't know exactly there's some other choice words in there, but we were down toy to zero halftime. We won twenty four to twenty three. Nuts scored a touchdown through the game, Mikes a forced fumble he had jud you scored a touchdown Tymore hard Park. We we didn't score off the touchdown. We won twenty four to twenty three. Devin also ran a kickback to Selo for US.
00:28:13
Speaker 1: Yes he did so, Mike Anderson, Oh no, no, no, Mark, Mark and Cush on the strip.
00:28:19
Speaker 2: Cush, yeah, class class. Mike picked score.
00:28:25
Speaker 6: Then he got hurt the next quarter list Frank injury and you did the same. And then we beat him and they missed the field goal. Neil Racords missed the thirty seven yard field goal.
00:28:34
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and that was when the precious Dennis Green was like, we let him off the hook. It was they did, but thank you.
00:28:41
Speaker 6: I don't know who's calling plays from that game. But the second half they ran the ball about twenty five times, twenty eight plays. They quit throwing the football. First half they lost success throw on the ball, and then they quit doing it. They got on their lead.
00:28:51
Speaker 2: They had lar and Andombo did.
00:28:54
Speaker 5: I don't think Fis played that game.
00:28:56
Speaker 1: I want to know this. Tell me your favorite peanut story of all time.
00:29:00
Speaker 6: Oh man, I don't know if I could tell that one my favorite one. But you said, we're good, box him up in our locker room, box them up, box him up?
00:29:09
Speaker 5: Remember the game? I remember.
00:29:10
Speaker 2: I have a video of you getting boxed up.
00:29:12
Speaker 6: That didn't happen that I will show later. It's like the worst quality I've ever seen.
00:29:17
Speaker 2: I know.
00:29:18
Speaker 6: But anyway, the boxing up game was like you'd have to hide someone's like around the corner and just slamming off someone's head and starts to box them up and slapping the box. I got this dude about forty times. I was the best boxer of all time.
00:29:31
Speaker 2: But when he goes, yes, how old are you guys in the locker room?
00:29:38
Speaker 6: Man, you're going to work, You're going to work, but you're hanging out with your bikes having fun.
00:29:44
Speaker 2: I think we
got him the best though it was from the second story.
00:29:47
Speaker 6: Don't say we you didn't have anything to do with it. I ca is he did it. Walked down the locker room. Is the biggest box I've ever seen, and this box falls on my head and they.
00:29:59
Speaker 2: Got you can start.
00:30:01
Speaker 1: He's just like standing there and this box just collapses and everyone goes up and they started slapping the box and.
00:30:08
Speaker 2: He's like, what do you guys?
00:30:13
Speaker 5: But they got me from the second floor.
00:30:14
Speaker 2: I watched the video the other day, Dixon. I knew you wouldn't remember.
00:30:17
Speaker 5: I love it when those videos reservice. Remember the ones from training camp?
00:30:20
Speaker 6: Uh?
00:30:21
Speaker 1: John, I have a video of me jumping out of Bron's closet, scaring that out of him.
00:30:26
Speaker 5: It's raining camp. You scare me.
00:30:28
Speaker 6: First of all, you might have startled me, but it's a difference. There's a big difference difference. Like I scared people, I don't, but I get started when it happens to me.
00:30:37
Speaker 5: I like it.
00:30:40
Speaker 2: No, they don't know, they don't. So I want to know this.
00:30:44
Speaker 1: You mentioned Peanut in your Hall of Fame speech, Yes, and so number one why and number two Peanut? How did that make you feel when you heard those words of Brian, like who you let off us? In one of your best friends and best teammates.
00:30:58
Speaker 2: I will just say I'll go first.
00:31:01
Speaker 1: It felt good to be seen. It felt good to be recognized for the work that I've done. But it wasn't just me though it was. He mentioned Alex Brown, He mentioned a lot of us I think that Brian recognized that. I know he didn't do it alone, but he recognized the supporting I was the support staff, right supporting cast, and I think.
00:31:22
Speaker 5: We did it together.
00:31:23
Speaker 2: We did it together, but he was a face of the franchise we were supporting.
00:31:26
Speaker 5: I was up there at that time, but it was for all of us.
00:31:29
Speaker 4: Man.
00:31:29
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was the one that I recognized at that point in time, but I would I would have mentioned twenty guys, Roland, but you can give you this little amount of window you can get up there and talk. I didn't mention any coaches because if I mentioned one, I wanted to mention them all, and I felt like it was fair to say one coach and I mentioned another coach. But player wise, I felt I could do that because the guys that I mentioned, the guys that meant the most of me so and the guys that probably had the biggest effect on my career maybe or yes, mostly in the positive light, most of them.
00:31:55
Speaker 2: I know there's a team that was so tight though on that team, the team was great.
00:32:00
Speaker 1: We just had what made us, what made us bond was I think the games that we played and that and.
00:32:06
Speaker 5: We just football games.
00:32:08
Speaker 2: We played for one another.
00:32:09
Speaker 5: Are you about football games?
00:32:11
Speaker 1: No, just in the locker everything. Yeah, we just we played for one another. We were down for each other and going to work every day.
00:32:18
Speaker 6: Man, it was son, you know, you know legacies like my body hurts.
00:32:23
Speaker 2: Hell.
00:32:23
Speaker 6: No, I couldn't wait to get that. I couldn't wait to play baseball. I couldn't wait to play ping pong.
00:32:27
Speaker 5: I couldn't. I just couldn't wait to get door. It was a blast to me.
00:32:30
Speaker 1: The soccer game for a square. Yeah, we could go on and on about this. I know you, I know you got to get out of here.
00:32:39
Speaker 2: How about that mister Keith himself with the great interview, I'm calling him Keith. Now his mama named Brian. I'm gonna call him Brian or I ain't call him whatever you said, Keith.
