But I think people or players, regardless of what sport you play, you have to learn to build a callus in the body.

The body has to get used to ramping up to a certain degree that you do on Sundays, which is why when I did practice, I always practiced full speed as if it was a game.

There was no relaxing.

There was no taking a play off.

Hell, the funny part, I used to get cursed out and walk through because sometimes I would do walk through full speed.

I mean, I wasn't doing it to be funny.

I was doing it just so to continue to make sure my body stays activated and always at a high rate of speed at all times.

And for some reason, I think it's those small things that I did that one of the reasons why I didn't get hurt.

And obviously, I played the same sport Unc did, Joe.

A barbaric sport.

I played very reckless, Joe, you know, cross the middle, you know, diving and hitting people, even though I lost every time I tried to hit somebody.

I lost every single one, Joe, but I still never got hurt.

And I'm at that talk and everybody trying to knock my head off, everybody trying to kill me, Joe, but I still never got hurt.

I mean, they call it walkthrough, but ours was a brisk jog.

It wasn't no walking.

And they was like, hey, pick it up.

I said, you said it's a walkthrough.

Nah, that's just entitled.

Ain't no walking.

Right, right, right.
