When I grew up in New Orleans, I used to be like, "What is going on?" Like there's a there's some loud noises going on. Like really a movie. Literally. Watch this. I'm talking about I lived right here. There was a gate right here. I used to walk to the gate and watch the football game. And this is Isidor Newman. And I didn't know nothing about it. Who's that? Isidor Newman. Eli Pton. Man. Yeah. Archie Manning. The the father the patter of of Eli and Payton. He That's Yeah. Yeah, he played for who did he play for in the pros? The Oilers, the No, somebody like that. But yeah, I mean, he was And now the kid. Don't they have a kid now who's coming up? Arch.

Yeah. Bloodline, you know. I mean, DNA. I'm talking about I'm talking about 100 ft. Like I'm talking about one football field, maybe two football fields max. I lived right there. Do you think that was Destiny that you wound up catching his passage? I don't know. Just it just happened to work out like but it was just like I like it literally could be a movie. Like I remember walking up to the fence and I was like watching I was like I want to play here. You know what I mean? Like I had no idea of anything. And um cuz growing up in New Orleans it would have either been Newman or St. You have a you have a very sophisticated, mature attitude for someone who's 32 because I remember being 32 and I didn't Yeah, I didn't I've been through I think I've done uh my my 22 through 32 was a 23 through through 40 with what I had to go through and experience and all those things. And yet I still have a lot

to learn. And yet I'm still someone who wants to learn. Like when someone like we sit down having a conversation, I I want to learn. That's the most important thing. I'm not somebody who I Oh, I think I know it. No, no, no. That is the best. I am the same way. Absolutely. Somebody somebody younger than me could teach me something. I doubt it. But um but my favorite three words are I don't know because every time I say that I somebody tells me something and I was physicious about that. You absolutely can learn from people younger than you.

I love that. Luckily, the people that younger than me are also better looking. Yeah. But the mentality that you can't learn from somebody else, then it just I don't know. It's just like you you you think not too highly of yourself or whatever it is, but you're just not like you're not open like you. No. But I mean the classic mistake of youth and I suffered it also was thinking you're so dumb. You don't know what you don't know. So you think you know it all. And you know what most people have to discover painfully through life is you know if you had just listened to this person opened your mind open your ears they could have they were trying to save you right so much pain. But it's but it's so it's ironic. That's how I feel.

That's where I'd stop you and I'd be like for me type of person I am. I have to touch that stove to know that it was hot. It's not just you. It's everybody. You have to. Everyone has to learn. Everybody the only way for someone to learn. If you could I get it that you can oh learn from my mistakes. You don't have to be like me. But no. I mean for me I have to grow that way. Like that's how I'm going to grow. I needed to do that. It's a shame because we could save so much pain. And I would say, I'm just pulling this out of my ass, but like one out of 10 times when somebody older imparts some wisdom to a younger person that says, "I'm telling you, I've been down this road. I've seen this movie. I've stopped at this in I know, but you're doing the same thing.

We all have the same patterns. I'm telling you, you could save yourself so much." I think like one out of 10 times that lands and the person actually avoids the mistake they would have made. Nine out of ten times they just got to do it for themselves for sure. But also the one out let's compare the one out of 10 to the nine out of 10. Like who knows what it does for that person. Like maybe right the one out of 10 who learned didn't learn in other areas. The nine out of 10 who had to burn their hand. So true took all the information in and they understood for the next time that something was coming. Like you just got to like everybody everybody is everybody. We all have our own lives. We all deal with our own [ __ ] And that's just how it's got to be. Like we all have to I wake up every day. I got to look myself in the mirror. I got to understand my problems. I got to my flaws. Not to discredit anybody else,

but at the end of the day, like I got to handle me and mine. Like I Especially now that you got a kid. Like I I tell people right now, like I'm in the middle of my own storm. I'm holding my umbrella and my son and my family and the people who I love and care for are under my umbrella. I can't hold your umbrella right now. Umbrella. What? Wasn't that a big song? See, take your jacket off. Oh my Oh my god. You're going to sing umbrella now. Do it. Got me. Let's do it. Yeah, that's quite a jacket. Yeah, it might be. Oh, that's a beautiful Oh, yeah. might need this.

take your Yeah, but you can reattach that yourself. That's okay. We can even keep rolling with this. And I'm sure you know, we were talking before about how you said you're really 40, you know, you you No, but like mentally because you you do like when you're 22, you not only you're playing this game in front of a lot of people. I most people are not doing something in front of all those people, whatever they're doing. And then after the game, you have to like sit down in front of the press. You have to go to a, you know, that table where you sit. I feel like it's the rock bottom worst thing ever you could ever watch on television is any sort of interview with an athlete. It's just it's kind of wrong, but it's like for even for me as a 22-year-old, everybody talks about this catch and it's like, oh, you know, they like to try and reflect and be like, oh, he only had one catch. And I'm like, I think

that was touchdown number eight of the season or whatever. No, no, you're whatever. You know what I'm saying? Like I'm a fan. I know how good you look. Let's be real. Yeah. The people who watch the game know. Stop it. But it's like at the same point in time, it's like, yeah, that was one catch. That was touchdown number eight. But to me, I'm over here as a 22year-old who's now been handed the world. And now you have I I'll never forget the catch happened. I went from like almost being at 300K to by the time we had a game next week 1 million followers. The week after that close to 1.5 to like going into my like my second year 2.3 million follow like just taking off and people around the world hearing about it and it's like not everybody can carry that.

No. No. You how many followers do you have? I Okay, but it's a lot. I know it's a lot. I know you I know you're like uh crazy. I mean, uh I've got uh 10,000 on beeper. Yeah. I'll just say for like for the sport that I play, I've traveled across the world and and I [ __ ] love it because it's like it's great. Like I could be anywhere in the world and not anywhere but people you have fans. Yeah. who I am. And like as a football player, we wear masks. We're not playing basketball. Like it doesn't happen to anybody. I'm not Tom Brady who's the [ __ ] goat, you know? Like there's only certain people who are like, you know, etched in stone like and it just so happens. So you think he's the goat of football? I'm not arguing. I'm just asking. Yeah, I'm not arguing with you either. That's like Yeah. I mean, he has a I mean, he is pretty amazing. I mean seven.

I used to dislike him. Yeah, you try and it's hard. No, I used to dislike him. No, I try to, but I love them because it's like, why the [ __ ] does he keep winning? He beat my Rams and the Rams is my team. Like, you know what I mean? Like, he also I mean, even if he just had the Super Bowls with the Patriots, it would be an amazing number. It's very hard to get to the Super Bowl, but then to leave the team, I mean, the studliest move he ever did was to leave the team and win a Super Bowl with another team because that was the that was this it was the mic drop of all time. It was like I can do it without Bill Bellichic. Thank you.
