Tretter would have his head down.

Lloyd would be looking somewhere else.

Anamika had certain times of the day that she came in when nobody else was coming into the building.

And they all kept this distance about them all.

But whenever we would do patrols on each floor, we would patrol the eighth floor on the executive floor, we would see these individuals together with each other

but not on a lot of occasions with other people.

They minded their business because their business they didn't want anybody else to be in.

They had decided amongst themselves that we've got everything so well in place the way we want it that we can just have that gangster swagger and just kind of go about our daily day doing what we want to do.

There was always this notion about them that they had people in place that was going to run interference for them.

You don't have to worry about it.

And if somebody like Mr. Jones or Heather McPhee or anybody else raises a ruckus, we will silence them in the way that we know how.

And I just wouldn't capitulate to impunity.

And there were so many wonderful employees also who said, no, we're not going to wrap ourselves up in the stench of all of this mess that they were creating.

And our way to mitigate the madness is staying true to the game, staying true to the players, keep producing the kind of good work that we've been doing.

And through all of that sacrifice that we've always made, that's going to make more apparent that these individuals that are in seats of power need not be there.

Well, it was obvious because...

at the super bowl uh i was in new orleans where lloyd was uh executive director yeah and he was talking about how there needed to be some upgrades in staff because with this brave new world of data analytics and all of these new concepts that they were bringing into the game of football

there needed to be staffing changes with people who had the expertise to bring in these new analytical models.

We need to freshen the place up, get new ways of thinking in here, different approaches to better serve the players.
