37
00:01:51,840 –> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 4: But finally, after months and months of waiting, we’ve seen

38
00:01:54,680 –> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 4: the guys out there on the practice fields playing football

39
00:01:57,960 –> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 4: and no padded practices yet. Were on the ramp up

46
00:02:15,720 –> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: this Defending the Kingdom. I’m going to rip off one

47
00:02:17,520 –> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 1: of coaches four pillars that he brought to us way

48
00:02:20,840 –> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: back in January of twenty thirteen and changed all of

49
00:02:23,440 –> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 1: our lives. But one of them is attack everything, and

50
00:02:26,919 –> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: we’re going to talk about attacking this training camp and

51
00:02:30,200 –> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 1: embracing the competition because we have some real competition at

52
00:02:34,440 –> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: some of these spots.

53
00:02:35,960 –> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 2: We’ll touch on some of that.

54
00:02:37,400 –> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: We’ll also have a live stream tomorrow from here in

55
00:02:39,440 –> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 1: camp and so we’ll get into some of those position

56
00:02:42,160 –> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: groups even deeper. But we’re gonna kind of gloss over

57
00:02:44,280 –> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 1: the whole thing. But before we do all of that. Absolutely,

58
00:02:48,200 –> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: it’s camp tradition. It’s a DTK tradition to go around

87
00:04:04,160 –> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: They should be the ramps leading Pleasantville out.

88
00:04:08,040 –> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 3: Maybe I misread it. I don’t know.

89

Speaker 2: It’s a key part of their community. Wow.

90
00:04:11,440 –> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: And they just leave Pleasant Hill out and so they

91
00:04:15,080 –> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: should be the Ramps. And on the side of their

92
00:04:16,880 –> 00:04:19,599

99
00:04:39,400 –> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 3: think it was the Rams.

100
00:04:40,320 –> 00:04:42,480

00:07:18,920 –> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 4: Grand Tetons, that was like our vacation this year. We

169
00:07:21,120 –> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 4: went to the Grand Titans and Yellowstone. We were in

170
00:07:24,080 –> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 4: the like southern Wyoming, so just over the Colorado border,

171
00:07:27,520 –> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 4: and we went to a gas station and I put

172
00:07:29,440 –> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 4: this on Twitter.

173
00:07:30,000 –> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 3: Some people saw it.

174
00:07:31,320 –> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 4: It was like this whole setup with like Broncos gear,

175
00:07:34,080 –> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 4: you know, like just the like there would be here

176
00:07:35,840 –> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 4: like Chief’s gear, but it’s all Broncos gear. It’s like

177
00:07:37,640 –> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 4: Broncos shirts, Broncos hat, all this stuff. And there was

178
00:07:39,920 –> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 4: a Chief’s hat right in the middle of the display.

179
00:07:42,200 –> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 4: It’s all Broncos stuff, and then the Chiefs hat right

180
00:07:44,480 –> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 4: in the middle, and I’m like, this is amazing.

181
00:07:46,160 –> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 3: So I thought you’d like that.

182
00:07:47,400 –> 00:07:48,239
Speaker 2: Did you put it there?

183
00:07:48,560 –> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 4: I did not put it there. Some person apparently they’re

184
00:07:51,200 –> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 4: selling those so I’m all for it.

185
00:07:53,400 –> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 2: Did Ellie the one that called the coyote put it there?

186
00:07:55,440 –> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 4: She didn’t know, but she was in full support. You know,

187
00:07:57,400 –> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 4: Ellie might go to the This is pretty funny. Say

00:08:00,240 –> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 4: the Chiefs play the Broncos in Denver every year. My

189
00:08:02,640 –> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 4: in laws are Broncos fans. It’s kind of contentious. But

190
00:08:05,560 –> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 4: Ellie normally doesn’t go to road games. She’s going to

191
00:08:07,960 –> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 4: go to the Broncos Chiefs game in Denver this year.

192
00:08:11,000 –> 00:08:13,400

00:08:15,520 –> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 4: scear at this game, and he has to wonder what happened.

195
00:08:18,200 –> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 2: You know. Well, I’m very proud of her.

196
00:08:20,240 –> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: She married money, so it’s all good. Yeah, And Travis

Speaker 1: an Orange and Black team.

00:08:36,000 –> 00:08:36,439
Speaker 3: It’s cool.

203
00:08:36,440 –> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 2: How cool? Is that? Super cool?

204

00:08:54,320 –> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: So shout out to the Creekhouse.

210
00:08:55,960 –> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: Creek’s House, and that was Charleston, right, Charleston, South Carolina,

211
00:08:58,679 –> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 1: which by the way, is an awesome town. And Rod Wilson,

212
00:09:01,440 –> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 1: who’s on our staff, is from there near there, small town.

213
00:09:04,640 –> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 1: He’s got you gotta have Charleston shrimp and grits. Okay,

214
00:09:07,760 –> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: I’m not a fan of grits, he goes, No, the

215
00:09:09,520 –> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: Saint grits. Like you’ve ever had grits? Oh my gosh,

216
00:09:12,280 –> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: I would have had it every night. Yeah, I had

217
00:09:14,240 –> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 1: it three times. It sounds great. Yep, it was great.

218
00:09:16,559 –> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: That humidity. He probably prepared you for this. Yeah, oh yeah,

219
00:09:19,600 –> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 1: but that town is amazing so obviously historic but a

220
00:09:23,240 –> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: great place to go chill. And you got the ocean,

221
00:09:25,559 –> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: but you got the harbor and blah blah blah. But anyway, yes,

222
00:09:28,440 –> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: so you for you Coastal Carroll. No, it actually it’s

223
00:09:30,800 –> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 1: the College of Charleston is there in Charleston Southern and

224
00:09:33,520 –> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: the Citade Citadel, the Citel is so cool. Yeah, we

225
00:09:36,600 –> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: were on campus for a while checking out the citadel.

226
00:09:38,600 –> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 3: That’s awesome.

227
00:09:39,160 –> 00:09:41,719
Speaker 1: We’re on campus here at Missouri Western State University in

228
00:09:41,760 –> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: Saint Joseph, the fifteenth time we’ve been here.

229
00:09:44,080 –> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 2: Now it’s been sixteen years.

230
00:09:45,280 –> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: But remember twenty twenty was COVID and you and I

231
00:09:47,840 –> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: had training camp in a tent about four hundred yards

232
00:09:50,240 –> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: from humans the weirdest and a bathroom a half mile away,

233
00:09:54,040 –> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: and we had like you know, convenience store sandwiches. It

234
00:09:58,440 –> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: was a great camp. But let’s jump into this one.

235
00:10:01,120 –> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 1: There are ninety one humans on this team. Four quarterbacks,

236
00:10:04,480 –> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: six running backs, seven tight ends, thirteen wide receivers, fifteen

237
00:10:08,280 –> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 1: offensive linemen, fourteen defensive lineman, nine linebackers, and nineteen defensive backs.

238
00:10:12,640 –> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: Throw in four specialists, and there’s your ninety one, not

239
00:10:15,320 –> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: that we’re keeping track.

240
00:10:16,440 –> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 4: And if you’re wondering why is it ninety one, Well

241
00:10:18,960 –> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 4: because of Chew Godrick, who’s on this team originally from Nigeria.

242
00:10:23,720 –> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 4: In training camp during the offseason, you’re allowed to have

243
00:10:25,920 –> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 4: an international player exemption. So even though the roster is

244
00:10:29,000 –> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 4: supposed to be only be at ninety, we have ninety

245
00:10:31,320 –> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 4: one players because of Chew Godrick.

246
00:10:33,320 –> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 3: So that’s how that number ends up being what it is.

247
00:10:36,200 –> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: It is hard to argue a team that is we

248
00:10:38,480 –> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: take the and CBF Sports put this out by the way,

249
00:10:41,480 –> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: I’ve been using the barograph when I speak publicly. But

250
00:10:44,400 –> 00:10:47,439
Speaker 1: the fact that of the you take MLB, you take

251
00:10:47,440 –> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: the NBA. In the NFL, the Chiefs are the most

252
00:10:49,480 –> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: successful team at seventy five percent win percentage over a

253
00:10:52,160 –> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 1: ten year span that includes three years of Alex Smith

254
00:10:54,679 –> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: at quarterback and seven years with Patrick Mahomes. Why do

255
00:10:59,080 –> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: I say that to start this conversation is the fact

256
00:11:02,760 –> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: that that is the byproduct of this and Andy Coach

257
00:11:07,080 –> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: Reid mentioned it in his opening press conference here. But

258
00:11:09,840 –> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: Matt and I tell you on defending the Kingdom just

259
00:11:11,880 –> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: how important every OTA is. That may matters in June, matters,

260
00:11:16,160 –> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 1: but when you get the camp, the OTAs and mandatory

261
00:11:18,800 –> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: mini camp is to put you on an on ramp,

262
00:11:21,040 –> 00:11:24,319
Speaker 1: speaking of ramps, into this moment so that you hit

263
00:11:24,360 –> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: this moment running, not jogging or waiting or you’re waiting

264
00:11:27,800 –> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: on some guy to get in shape. It’s none of that.

265
00:11:30,480 –> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: This is he mentioned the sense of urgency in every

266
00:11:33,320 –> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: day and we sense it when we’re here and been

267
00:11:35,480 –> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: around coach here in this camp for thirteen years now.

268
00:11:38,000 –> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 4: The Chiefs are one of only six teams that still

269
00:11:40,559 –> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 4: goes away for training camp. Everyone else just does it

270
00:11:43,120 –> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 4: at their team facility, and it’s kind of like what

271
00:11:44,920 –> 00:11:46,719
Speaker 4: it was like for us in twenty twenty, where it’s

272
00:11:46,760 –> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 4: just like an extended practice period.

273
00:11:49,400 –> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 3: They don’t have this whole experience.

274
00:11:51,160 –> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 4: And obviously the football aspect of this is super important,

275
00:11:54,280 –> 00:11:56,200
Speaker 4: and we’re going to talk all about it, but I

276
00:11:56,240 –> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 4: truly believe it’s all the other stuff that really makes

277
00:11:59,280 –> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 4: this team so sucessful. It’s that they’re staying in the

278
00:12:01,720 –> 00:12:04,199
Speaker 4: dorms up here. You have to get to know everyone.

279
00:12:04,360 –> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 4: You have no choice. You’re eating lunch together, you’re eating

280
00:12:06,320 –> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 4: dinner together, breakfast together, you’re studying together.

281
00:12:08,920 –> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 3: It is all football all the time up here.

282
00:12:12,000 –> 00:12:14,959
Speaker 4: And I think for the players, they go away, they

283
00:12:14,960 –> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 4: do all their stuff, they go on vacation, they take

284
00:12:17,000 –> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 4: care of what they have to take care of, but

285
00:12:18,640 –> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 4: they all come here together and it’s all football before

286
00:12:22,040 –> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 4: the season starts. And again, not every team does that.

287
00:12:25,040 –> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 4: Most don’t do that. Most training camps take place at

288
00:12:27,800 –> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 4: a team facility. It’s just like a normal practice. You

289
00:12:30,800 –> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 4: do all your stuff and then you go home. It’s

290
00:12:32,520 –> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 4: like your job, but here the guys are up here

291
00:12:35,320 –> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 4: like for weeks at a time, and then it’s just

292
00:12:37,520 –> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 4: one hundred percent football. And I think those relationships and

293
00:12:40,800 –> 00:12:42,599
Speaker 4: those bombs that you build, they pay off in the

294
00:12:42,640 –> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 4: long run. Right when things are difficult in November or December, January,

295
00:12:47,000 –> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 4: hopefully February, you’re leaning back on bonds that you made

296
00:12:50,160 –> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 4: all the way in July and in August. And the

297
00:12:51,960 –> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 4: football stuff obviously very important, but you can’t discount all

298
00:12:55,040 –> 00:12:56,440
Speaker 4: the other stuff that happens up here.

299
00:12:56,559 –> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 2: Let’s be honest.

300
00:12:57,480 –> 00:13:00,199
Speaker 1: There’s a big sacrifice here for the folks that work

301
00:13:00,200 –> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: in the organization, especially when you look at the equipment staff,

302
00:13:03,920 –> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 1: and you look at athletic training and our video staff

303
00:13:08,160 –> 00:13:12,319
Speaker 1: or coaches videos for us in our sixty five TPT crew. One,

304
00:13:12,600 –> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 1: it’s a physical task to move your whole organization an

305
00:13:16,040 –> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: hour away. Two, you’re saying goodbye to your family for

306
00:13:19,520 –> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: a lot of time. I mean, Pat’s got the new

307
00:13:21,040 –> 00:13:24,079
Speaker 1: little one. Yeah it’s so cute, but Pat had to

308
00:13:24,080 –> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: say goodbye to his three little kids who he loves.

309
00:13:26,679 –> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: But when he comes up here, Pat’s all in. And

310
00:13:29,679 –> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: so I put it out on Twitter slash x that

311
00:13:33,800 –> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: you know, my stomach turns. It was my thirty second camp,

312
00:13:36,640 –> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: and every camp feels a new But this is such

313
00:13:41,120 –> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: a powerful time to build a winning team. I do

314
00:13:44,280 –> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: not if the league gets completely away from this, the

315
00:13:47,440 –> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 1: league will suffer.

316
00:13:49,040 –> 00:13:49,719
Speaker 2: Think about this.

317
00:13:49,760 –> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: When you were a youth and you went to scouting camp,

318
00:13:52,440 –> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: you were an eagle scout. You go to Bible camp,

319
00:13:55,240 –> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: you go to science camp. When you go there, you

320
00:13:57,880 –> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: go there to stay. And yes, what you learn is important,

321
00:14:01,559 –> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: but it’s also the relationships that you build and learning

322
00:14:04,600 –> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 1: how to deal with each other.

323
00:14:05,679 –> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 2: This is a super hard sport and it is such

324
00:14:08,840 –> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 2: a long grind.

325
00:14:09,760 –> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: We have had the shortest off seasons for three straight years.

326
00:14:13,320 –> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: But this camp is so important you cannot you cannot

327
00:14:17,840 –> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: overlook what being at this camp means. The fact that yes,

328
00:14:20,760 –> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: they do all the work on the field, but they

329
00:14:22,840 –> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: are together all the time, and when the stuff hits

330
00:14:26,200 –> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 1: the fan, which it will for every team during out

331
00:14:28,920 –> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: the season, it’ll happen several times. You harken back on

332
00:14:32,240 –> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: this moment. And so when coach says there’s a sense

333
00:14:34,520 –> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: of urgency, it’s not just learning the plays and getting

334
00:14:36,680 –> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: it down and being able to execute. It’s who will

335
00:14:39,240 –> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: be their shoulder to shoulder with a band of brothers

336
00:14:42,040 –> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: and sisters that you’re sharing this with. It’s like when

337
00:14:45,520 –> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 1: you’re in the military and you go to basic training.

338
00:14:48,280 –> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: You don’t do that and go home every night. So

339
00:14:51,160 –> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: and even for the married folks, they got to leave

340
00:14:53,080 –> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: their families, and so I just think it’s so vialable

341
00:14:56,480 –> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: to do it. It’s tough to do it, but I

342
00:14:59,680 –> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: can’t more teams don’t do it well.

343
00:15:02,240 –> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 4: And Also, one thing that really stuck with me from

344
00:15:04,040 –> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 4: Coach Reid months ago. It was in one of the

345
00:15:07,560 –> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 4: first press conferences he did maybe after the Super Bowl,

346
00:15:10,360 –> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 4: and when we were turning the page to this year,

347
00:15:12,480 –> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 4: he talked about how much he enjoys and the importance

348
00:15:15,360 –> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 4: of the process. And I think the reason a lot

349
00:15:18,680 –> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 4: of teams get into trouble the year after they lose

350
00:15:21,000 –> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl is because they’re just trying to fast

351
00:15:23,600 –> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 4: forward to that moment to correct that wrong. And it’s like, oh,

352
00:15:26,760 –> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 4: we’re just going to fast forward to that. What you

353
00:15:28,400 –> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 4: can’t because it’s really hard to get to the Super Bowl.

354
00:15:30,920 –> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 4: You have to invest in the process of every single

355
00:15:33,000 –> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 4: step along the way to get there. Fortunately, the Chiefs

356
00:15:35,680 –> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 4: have a ton of experience with this obviously, going to

357
00:15:38,080 –> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 4: seven straight AFC Championship games, going to five super Bowls

358
00:15:41,480 –> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 4: over the last six years, they know how important it

359
00:15:44,160 –> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 4: is to invest in every single day. We can’t just

360
00:15:46,640 –> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 4: fast forward to the super Bowl right in February. We

361
00:15:49,800 –> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 4: have to think about today, which is what July twenty third,

362
00:15:52,720 –> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 4: How do we get better today on July twenty third tomorrow,

363
00:15:56,000 –> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 4: it’ll be about July twenty fourth. That all compounds and

364
00:15:59,120 –> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 4: hopefully helps you get to the Super Bowl. Lots of

365
00:16:01,960 –> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 4: teams like to overlook that stuff. It’s human nature, but

366
00:16:04,680 –> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 4: the Chiefs are so fortunate that they don’t. They’re committed

367
00:16:07,600 –> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 4: and then they enjoy the process of getting there, and

368
00:16:10,360 –> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 4: most teams, frankly don’t enjoy that process.

369
00:16:12,600 –> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: And if people say that it’s such an excellent point, man,

370
00:16:15,200 –> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: in fact, go all the way back, all the way back,

371
00:16:17,920 –> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: just scroll down and find our very first defending the

372
00:16:21,120 –> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: Kingdom after Super Bowl fifty nine and what was it? Infrastructure? Yeah,

373
00:16:25,320 –> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: And so I got asked Monday night. It was an

374
00:16:27,000 –> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: event in Springfield with Dan and Hughes, the analyst on

375
00:16:29,920 –> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: with Chi’s started a network two hundred people Springfield.

376
00:16:32,120 –> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 2: Such an awesome Chiefs Kingdom Town.

377
00:16:33,840 –> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: But it was asked about hangover losing that Super Bowl

378
00:16:36,800 –> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: down thirty four to nothing into the Eagles getting wiped out,

379
00:16:38,880 –> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: and is there a hangover? I said, go back to

380
00:16:41,160 –> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: our defending the Kingdom way back when where we talked

381
00:16:43,960 –> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: about infrastructure and to me, that infrastructure rolls on one

382
00:16:49,520 –> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: single event does not change the train that moves down

383
00:16:52,600 –> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: the track, and that’s what you’re saying. The other key

384
00:16:54,840 –> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: part of this camp is that we have our new

385
00:16:58,200 –> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: draft picks and we’re excited about the twenty five class.

386
00:17:01,120 –> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 1: We have new free agents. Jalen Moore has been working

387
00:17:04,640 –> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: with the number ones at right tackle. He was a

388
00:17:06,400 –> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 1: forty nine er now Christian Fulton’s on the pup right now,

389
00:17:09,160 –> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 1: but Elijah Mitchell running back also from the forty nine ers.

390
00:17:12,600 –> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: New guy Gardner Minshew’s been around a couple teams in

391
00:17:15,160 –> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: the league. These are guys that were on teams in

392
00:17:17,320 –> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: the past. This goes to your process and then the

393
00:17:20,680 –> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 1: undrafted rookie free agents. There’s a gob of them here

394
00:17:23,000 –> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 1: at seven draft picks. This is so important to accelerate

395
00:17:27,920 –> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 1: learning and being around the culture that you mentioned, and

396
00:17:30,720 –> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: it’s the process to me times five because this is

397
00:17:34,320 –> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 1: all condensed into about a three and a half week

398
00:17:36,480 –> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: period where it’s on.

399
00:17:38,040 –> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 4: If you’re a rookie or you’re a free agent that

400
00:17:40,119 –> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 4: came from another team, you learn really quickly what it

401
00:17:43,080 –> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 4: means to be a Chief, and I think you quickly

402
00:17:45,840 –> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 4: understand why this team has been so successful. We say

403
00:17:49,320 –> 00:17:52,160
Speaker 4: this like every single week on DTK, But the Chiefs

404
00:17:52,160 –> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 4: don’t just roll out there and say we’ve got Patrick Mahomes,

405
00:17:54,840 –> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 4: We’ve got Travis Kelcey and Chris Jones, We’re going.

406
00:17:57,000 –> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 3: To be good.

407
00:17:57,600 –> 00:17:59,959
Speaker 4: There’s so much work that goes in behind the scenes

408
00:18:00,359 –> 00:18:02,120
Speaker 4: and the work that goes in up here. I mean

409
00:18:02,119 –> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 4: it’s hot. I mean right now it is eleven thirty.

410
00:18:04,440 –> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 4: It’s already eighty four degrees. I think it was like

411
00:18:06,800 –> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 4: eighty five percent humidity when I first checked this morning.

412
00:18:09,760 –> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 4: I mean, it can be kind of miserable. But you’re

413
00:18:11,840 –> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 4: out of here practicing at Missouri Western to get ready

414
00:18:15,240 –> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 4: for hopefully a Super Bowl later this year. But you

415
00:18:17,960 –> 00:18:20,360
Speaker 4: can’t fast forward to that moment. How do you get there?

416
00:18:20,440 –> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 4: These guys know how to do it. It’s not about

417
00:18:22,040 –> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 4: talking about it or saying, hey, we just got to

418
00:18:24,600 –> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 4: breeze through the season. All you think about is today?

419
00:18:27,800 –> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 4: How do we get better today? And not every team’s

420
00:18:30,200 –> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 4: like that. And I think for our guys, like our

421
00:18:32,800 –> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 4: free agents that you’re mentioning are the rookies, this is

422
00:18:34,920 –> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 4: so great for them because they realize this is what

423
00:18:36,840 –> 00:18:39,679
Speaker 4: it takes to be a champion. If Patrick Mahomes is

424
00:18:39,680 –> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 4: doing this, a guy that could be in the Hall

425
00:18:41,119 –> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 4: of Fame if he retired today. If he’s coming out

426
00:18:43,040 –> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 4: here and attacking July twenty third, I better do the

427
00:18:45,920 –> 00:18:46,360
Speaker 4: same thing.

428
00:18:46,800 –> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 2: And he was awesome today.

429
00:18:48,040 –> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he was making pinpoint throws and he was

430
00:18:50,600 –> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: spreading it around. Taekwon Thornton with a catch, Hollywood Brown

431
00:18:53,200 –> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 1: with a catch. He went back to Xavier Worthy again.

432
00:18:55,600 –> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: He and at your point. And this is why we’re

433
00:18:57,840 –> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 1: calling this Defending the Kingdom episode. Attack Everything. Patrick attacks

434
00:19:03,200 –> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: this camp. Kelsey attacks this camp. Yeah, And tomorrow on

435
00:19:06,040 –> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 1: our live stream, we’re gonna feature Chris Jones on the

436
00:19:08,200 –> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: defensive line. I’ve never seen Chris Jones and I’m trying

437
00:19:11,800 –> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: not to do recency bias. I’ve never seen Chris Jones

438
00:19:15,160 –> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 1: work harder than he has right now, and that includes

439
00:19:17,960 –> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 1: going back to May in June and mandatory mini camp.

440
00:19:21,920 –> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 1: He’s attacked the start of this camp. And if you’re

441
00:19:24,119 –> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 1: a Chiefs fan, that should excite you the most. And

442
00:19:25,960 –> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: if you’re an NFL fan, going, oh, the Chiefs are

443
00:19:27,880 –> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 1: going to be three and fourteen, there’s going to be

444
00:19:29,720 –> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl hangover that may happen. I don’t think

445
00:19:33,000 –> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: it will be because of the way this team is

446
00:19:34,600 –> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: attacking this.

447
00:19:35,359 –> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 4: So yesterday was day one of training camp. Day one,

448
00:19:38,640 –> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 4: we’re in the ramp up period right. Like I said earlier,

449
00:19:40,800 –> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 4: it’s all about kind of easing into this. Well, Chris

450
00:19:43,640 –> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 4: after practice was over, was doing the thing where he

451
00:19:46,520 –> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 4: had like the harness and he had the the sled,

452
00:19:49,560 –> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 4: he had like these bar bells behind him. He’s just

453
00:19:52,280 –> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 4: working on strength training. No one’s telling him to do this,

454
00:19:54,960 –> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 4: He’s just like, I want to do it. On day one,

455
00:19:56,960 –> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 4: there’s seventeen practices up here and Chris Jones again and

456
00:20:00,200 –> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 4: another player that would be a Hall of Famer if

457
00:20:02,040 –> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 4: you’re retired today. A three time Super Bowl champion is

458
00:20:05,000 –> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 4: up here on July twenty second in Saint Joe doing

459
00:20:07,560 –> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 4: the sled after practice just because he wants to tells

460
00:20:10,520 –> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 4: you everything you need to know, a.

461
00:20:12,119 –> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: Little bit of a groundhog day. But that’s part of

462
00:20:14,560 –> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 1: a little bit of attacking it in the fact that

463
00:20:17,240 –> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: this tests you mentally and emotionally because you have breakfast,

464
00:20:21,040 –> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: you get treatment, you get ready to go, you hit

465
00:20:23,000 –> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: this practice and again they’re coming with the pads and

466
00:20:25,840 –> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: two twenty five practices. But then you go back, you

467
00:20:29,280 –> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: get in the cold tub, you get a treatment, you eat,

468
00:20:32,960 –> 00:20:34,639
Speaker 1: maybe get a little nap, but then you have a

469
00:20:34,680 –> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: walk through in the afternoon at the indoor facility. Then

470
00:20:37,200 –> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 1: you eat again, but then you have meetings at night,

471
00:20:40,040 –> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: and so there’s just it’s pound pound pound every day.

472
00:20:43,119 –> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 1: It’s like going to some intercession class in college where

473
00:20:45,480 –> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: you’re taking it like morning, noon, and night, and then

474
00:20:48,200 –> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 1: it’s every day. There’ll be some off days sprinkled in there.

475
00:20:51,720 –> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: But it’s also to give you an assimilation of the season.

476
00:20:55,080 –> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 1: The season is a grind. Who can handle the grind

477
00:20:57,359 –> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: in November and December. Think how good this team has

478
00:20:59,359 –> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: been in Dece winning nine straight AFC West championships. There’s

479
00:21:02,920 –> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 1: a reason that happens, and it’s not just talent and

480
00:21:05,960 –> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: so attacking and embracing the fact that it is groundhog day,

481
00:21:10,600 –> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 1: but fighting through it mentally and emotionally is as big

482
00:21:12,960 –> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: as it is physically.

483
00:21:13,880 –> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 3: You fired up. I can’t I’m ready to go.

484
00:21:16,480 –> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 1: I got through the whole Am I going to puke

485
00:21:18,359 –> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 1: or go to the bathroom every five minutes?

486
00:21:20,920 –> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 2: Then you get through that stage and you’re let’s attack it.

487
00:21:23,240 –> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

488
00:21:23,560 –> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 4: Well, you know what’s cool about this too, is that

489
00:21:26,200 –> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 4: everybody has a chance. And it would be very easy

490
00:21:28,680 –> 00:21:30,439
Speaker 4: to look out at a lot of the players that

491
00:21:30,480 –> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 4: maybe you don’t know their name yet and say, I

492
00:21:32,320 –> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 4: don’t know that guy, He’s probably not going to make

493
00:21:34,119 –> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 4: the team. But every single year there are players that

494
00:21:36,920 –> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 4: come out here and surprise us. They make this team

495
00:21:39,880 –> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 4: and they make an impact later on in the season.

496
00:21:42,840 –> 00:21:45,920
Speaker 4: Nico Romihio is a great example, a player that two

497
00:21:46,000 –> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 4: years ago was one of the darlings of training camp.

498
00:21:48,240 –> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 4: He got hurt, was out for the season. Okay, got

499
00:21:50,880 –> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 4: to do it all again the next year and last

500
00:21:52,760 –> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 4: training camp. He was excellent once again, ends up making

501
00:21:55,240 –> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 4: this team, and he made some big plays later in

502
00:21:57,760 –> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 4: the year, really helped save this team on kick return

503
00:22:00,040 –> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 4: and made some big plays on kick return. I think

504
00:22:01,760 –> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 4: about the Houston game and the Pittsburgh game. So every

505
00:22:04,800 –> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 4: single player that’s out here is being evaluated every single day,

506
00:22:08,320 –> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 4: on every single play.

507
00:22:09,640 –> 00:22:11,360
Speaker 3: That’s one of Coach Reed’s sayings.

508
00:22:11,800 –> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 4: And just because you don’t know their name doesn’t mean

509
00:22:13,760 –> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 4: they don’t have a chance to not only make this team,

510
00:22:16,040 –> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 4: but to help this team win. So with that in mind,

511
00:22:18,840 –> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 4: you want to talk about some position groups. What do

512
00:22:20,480 –> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 4: you think, Yeah, let’s close it this way. We’re just

513
00:22:22,400 –> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 4: going to gloss over this. We’ll crop dust this because

514
00:22:24,480 –> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 4: we’re going to dive into some others on some other

515
00:22:27,040 –> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 4: podcasts in our live streams and do a deep dive

516
00:22:29,680 –> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 4: into single position groups as we go down.

517
00:22:31,800 –> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 2: I laid them all out for you.

518
00:22:32,840 –> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 1: How many there, Let’s just crop dust it here that

519
00:22:35,240 –> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: the ones you’re interested in. Yeah, because I will say

520
00:22:37,760 –> 00:22:41,199
Speaker 1: this because it’s talk about embracing the competition. There are

521
00:22:41,200 –> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 1: guys that have been on this team. They’re gonna have

522
00:22:44,280 –> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: to fight their tail off to make this team. And

523
00:22:47,840 –> 00:22:50,120
Speaker 1: it’ll be interesting to follow it because there have been

524
00:22:50,200 –> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: some talent added. But where do you think some of

525
00:22:53,320 –> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: your more interesting position groups are?

526
00:22:55,280 –> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 4: Well, I’m interested in I’ll start on office. Running back

527
00:22:58,560 –> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 4: is interesting because we have good players there and over

528
00:23:01,800 –> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 4: the last couple of years, the Chiefs have kept just

529
00:23:04,480 –> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 4: maybe four running backs, maybe five running backs.

530
00:23:06,560 –> 00:23:07,639
Speaker 3: That’s kind of your limit.

531
00:23:07,760 –> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 4: And there are more than five running backs on this

532
00:23:11,119 –> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 4: roster right now that I think are pretty good players.

533
00:23:13,640 –> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 4: So running back is interesting. Elijah Mitchell, the kid from

534
00:23:17,520 –> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 4: San Francisco. What can he bring to this camp? He

535
00:23:19,920 –> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 4: was really good when he was healthy with the forty

536
00:23:21,680 –> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 4: nine ers. And Carson Steele. I was talking about Camp darlings.

537
00:23:24,960 –> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 4: Carson Steel was the Camp darling last year. Well, now

538
00:23:27,440 –> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 4: he has to do the whole thing over again. Tight

539
00:23:30,400 –> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 4: End is interesting as well. Jake brenning Stool, the UDFA

540
00:23:34,280 –> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 4: out of Clemson. He’s a rookie, didn’t get drafted, but

541
00:23:36,760 –> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 4: signed with this team after the draft was over looked.

542
00:23:40,359 –> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 4: Really good throughout the offseason training program. Got a little

543
00:23:42,880 –> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 4: banged up toward the end of it there, but he’s

544
00:23:44,359 –> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 4: healthy now. Made a good catch today in the end zone,

545
00:23:46,720 –> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 4: like during seven on sevens, went up there and got

546
00:23:48,560 –> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 4: it like a jump ball sort of do But Robert

547
00:23:51,080 –> 00:23:53,679
Speaker 4: Tanian as a player to keep in mind. So Tanyan

548
00:23:53,960 –> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 4: was a good player for the Packers. A handful of

549
00:23:55,800 –> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 4: years ago. We talked to him. He thought he’d be

550
00:23:58,280 –> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 4: there his whole career. Well it didn’t work out that way.

551
00:24:00,640 –> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 4: He’s here now. He’s still pretty young and still has

552
00:24:03,720 –> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 4: I think a lot left in the tank. So Robert

553
00:24:05,560 –> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 4: Tanning is a guy that I’m watching as well. But

554
00:24:07,960 –> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 4: I mean, generally you only keep around four tight ends,

555
00:24:10,960 –> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 4: So who’s going to make the cut there, We’ll have

556
00:24:12,560 –> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 4: to wait and find out.

557
00:24:13,920 –> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if you’re going to keep four running backs,

558
00:24:15,880 –> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: then it gets tense. If you’re going to keep four

559
00:24:17,520 –> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: tight ends and four running backs, then what do you

560
00:24:19,280 –> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 1: do at wide receiver? Which is going to be another

561
00:24:21,359 –> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: position group to watch really closely. I’ll just crop us

562
00:24:24,520 –> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 1: the cornerback group. The cornerback group is going to be

563
00:24:27,400 –> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 1: interesting to follow every day of this camp because think

564
00:24:31,400 –> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 1: of Noel Williams, the draft pick at of Cow. He’s talented,

565
00:24:36,000 –> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 1: he’s got special teams acumen, which if you’re going to

566
00:24:38,920 –> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 1: be the fifth corner on this team, you’re not only

567
00:24:41,640 –> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: going to be a dime corner. You better be a

568
00:24:43,840 –> 00:24:47,400
Speaker 1: four core special teams dude. So there is one there,

569
00:24:47,440 –> 00:24:49,479
Speaker 1: but you can sit there and do the math. There

570
00:24:49,520 –> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: are nineteen defensive backs, as I mentioned in this camp.

571
00:24:52,320 –> 00:24:53,679
Speaker 1: When you look at and we do a lot of

572
00:24:53,720 –> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 1: cross like hybrid guys or they corners or safeties. But

573
00:24:57,040 –> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 1: generally if you look in this camp, you could say

574
00:24:59,720 –> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 1: there are eleven corners. Of those nineteen you’re gonna keep

575
00:25:04,040 –> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 1: maybe five maybe six, But if you keep six, you’re

576
00:25:06,680 –> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 1: gonna rob his safety.

577
00:25:07,760 –> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 2: Yep.

578
00:25:08,080 –> 00:25:11,640
Speaker 1: And so cornerback will be something we’ll dive into more

579
00:25:11,680 –> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: as we get into it. But again, that will be

580
00:25:13,760 –> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: something to watch every day of this camp. And keep

581
00:25:17,359 –> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: in mind there have been guys on this team that

582
00:25:19,240 –> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 1: won Super Bowl rings. They’re going to be fighting for

583
00:25:21,560 –> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 1: their lives to make this too.

584
00:25:23,000 –> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 4: I think linebacker is pretty interesting as well. I think

585
00:25:25,280 –> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 4: we have a lot of depth at linebacker. Jeffrey Bass,

586
00:25:28,440 –> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 4: the rookie out of Oregon, really impressed me during the

587
00:25:31,200 –> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 4: offseason training program. Jack Cochran is coming back from injury.

588
00:25:34,840 –> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 4: Jack looks really good so far. I think Cam Jones

589
00:25:37,840 –> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 4: has been like a four core special teamer on this

590
00:25:40,160 –> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 4: team for years, So a bunch of competition. I think,

591
00:25:44,080 –> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 4: not maybe at your starting linebacker spots, but at the fourth, fifth,

592
00:25:47,480 –> 00:25:50,719
Speaker 4: maybe sixth guy. A lot of competition there. And again,

593
00:25:50,760 –> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 4: you have to be a four core special teamer if

594
00:25:53,080 –> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 4: you’re gonna be that fifth or sixth linebacker. So looking

595
00:25:56,320 –> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 4: forward to seeing that group as well. A lot of

596
00:25:58,840 –> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 4: competition I think three out this roster, and Brettveach told

597
00:26:02,040 –> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 4: me a long time ago that he thinks his job

598
00:26:04,160 –> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 4: is to create competition.

599
00:26:05,920 –> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 3: It’s not as.

600
00:26:06,359 –> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 4: Simple as you pencil in the player he’s our starter

601
00:26:08,840 –> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 4: and we’re good to go. It’s like we need to

602
00:26:10,520 –> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 4: have depth at every single spot, and it’s a good

603
00:26:13,119 –> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 4: problem to have if you have multiple players vying for

604
00:26:15,720 –> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 4: one spot and it’s hard to say goodbye to a player.

605
00:26:18,160 –> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 4: We haven’t even talked about left tackle yet either with

606
00:26:20,240 –> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 4: Josh Simmons and Jalen Moore, but a lot of competition

607
00:26:23,200 –> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 4: throughout this camp and hopefully when you have a chance

608
00:26:25,440 –> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 4: to come up here. It’s not just about necessarily left tackle.

609
00:26:28,520 –> 00:26:30,879
Speaker 4: It’s also about who’s going to be that fifth linebacker,

610
00:26:30,920 –> 00:26:33,879
Speaker 4: who’s going to be that fifth or sixth corner, because.

611
00:26:33,520 –> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 3: Throughout the years we’ve seen these players.

612
00:26:35,320 –> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 4: It might not be in Week one, but at some

613
00:26:37,160 –> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 4: point down the road, they’re going to make a difference.

614
00:26:39,600 –> 00:26:41,439
Speaker 2: One of our jobs is to make you feel like

615
00:26:41,480 –> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 2: you’re at camp.

616
00:26:42,320 –> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: Every day, and our sixty five TPT crew is doing that.

617
00:26:45,640 –> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: Our social team is doing that. So we have fans

618
00:26:48,520 –> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: we know from Laolou Laus Let we go low Lao

619
00:26:51,760 –> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: we know what hemisphere of the Philippines are in now north.

620
00:26:54,359 –> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 1: We’ve heard of a lot of you from Western Europe.

621
00:26:57,400 –> 00:26:59,479
