you know, this guy and this guy, or maybe they wouldn't complain directly, but they'd be like, Hey man, this guy's tripping, you know, like he's got to figure this out. And I'd be like, you know, just kind of take notes. I didn't really ask many questions. I was just taking notes, you know? And finally asked one of my friends, like, Hey, do you think I should do this?

He was like, Oh, a hundred percent, man, you kill it. And I was like, all right, when you hear that from someone in the space, you just got to, you know, Jesus take the wheel. You got to do it, man. And so I talked to my wife about that, too. It was a really big decision. And she was like, yeah, you can do anything you put your mind to. She's a rock star, man.

Like without her, who knows where I'd be. And I went back to school, got my master's degree and, you know, went through the process to become an agent, which I did not do nearly enough research for.

Yeah. So the first thing you have to, you have to have a master's degree or better like a terminal degree. So like a lawyer, doctor or something of that nature. And then you go through this application process, which opens up every January and they make it sound like it's just a normal job application. You know, you pay your fee and that's it. But then you open it up and it's like 160 pages.

And you're like, what, what am I getting myself into? I felt like I was back in the military about to try to go for top secret security clearance, you know? And you fill this thing out and it's asking you for references and everything you did. And a lot of jobs I've had, I've let people know like, hey, I'm going to put you down as a reference.

There was no way in my head I thought the NFL was going to reach out to every single reference I put down. And I started getting called from Marines that I hadn't talked to in 10 years that were like, hey, bro, why did the NFL just call me? And I was like, oh, no. So I started like backtrack and trying to get everybody up and let them know. So anyways, you do this application in January.

It's due by February. And then they go like radio silent. You don't hear anything from them at all until about May. And then all of a sudden they're like, Hey man, congratulations. You're eligible to take the test. And they, they send you, you have all these materials that are sent to you.

And I remember looking at it, you know, through the same lens I did in the military, which is when I was given information, I would just memorize it. Right. But this was like 700 pages and I had two months and I was like, Oh no, I can't memorize this.
