The Chick-fil-A, which the line is the longest.
Sometimes they'll go over there to the Panda Express.
And they got Carolina Mike out there doing that if you had $150,000.
Maybe if Dave Canales had $150,000, he'd buy a bunch of hustlers.
The insecurity that that conversation left me with was a very real thing. You know, thinning hair, beard. I'm getting PRP shots now. Thanks to you guys. But that that is a small part. Big cat. I can't lie.
It's, you know, the workout part is a really small portion for me, at least. I think it's led to some mis-evaluations. The tape is the biggest guide. What I do think the combine is beneficial for is the medical checks. You know, you get a lot of stuff in terms of the medical checks. And then the other thing is what we used to do when we would go is you spend those 15 minute increments.
where you're able to just get a feel for their football acumen. When you put their tape on, how are you coach? You know, you don't want to necessarily punish them for not being exposed to maybe some of the things other guys are, but the meetings can be beneficial. But I do think that that's still that 15 minute window is too short of a time to really get a feel for a human being.
So the vetting over the course of their careers is, The tape and the medical are the things that are the most important guiding principles for us.
I think the best thing, and a lot of this because of some of the shortcomings I've had is, hey, what's the biggest adversity you've faced and how did you bounce back from it? And you don't want to punish guys for not having gone through it.
But I'm such a big believer just based on the course of things that have occurred professionally for me or even personally that even though the most challenging moments, they felt like the worst thing when you're in them, you look back on them and you're saying, I don't know where I would be without what those lessons and those tough times taught me.
And if people have shown a consistent ability to be able to respond and use adversity to kind of catapult themselves forward and it doesn't break them, that means a whole hell of a lot to me.
Yeah, I think so. Right. I mean, there is a part of it that you can feel. I mean, there's a couple of these guys. They feel like you're going to break your hand. So it definitely leaves an impression. I mean, if you give me that limp, you know, handshake, I'm not a big fan of that. I mean, what do you guys think?
I was like, hey, listen, honestly, I would probably transition to a half dap kind of bro. I do try to tap a little bit more, but that way that it's still not impersonal. But I mean, I've been in those situations where you get some of those handshakes and it sends a shockwave through your whole fucking body.
What's the last time when you thought that yourself and then you felt the other guy thinking that same exact thing? Oh, yeah.
That was consistent throughout. You know, the Yellowstone, I'm kind of upset I wasn't there, you know, for the ski trip. That was a pretty, you know, that's a who's who over there. Yeah. I would say this, that was always the end goal in mind, trying to figure out, hey, how do we get this guy back?
What I do think is good, and honestly, and I've kind of talked about it, the biggest thing to me was that was always what we wanted. Matthew knew that. I'm so glad that it ended up where it did. But the most important thing is, is when you're making these commitments, and he's such a central part of where we want to go, and he's got such a positive influence on his teammates and
Um, him feeling good about it and Kelly feeling good about it and really collectively us all understanding, Hey, here's where we were at. Let's have some, you know, good conversations. And there's never been anybody that I really loved and cared about that you couldn't have like real conversations with. And I think we understood that, um,
we might not always see eye to eye on some different things, but I think we were closer as a result of going through it, even though there was some stuff where you're out there and it became so public where you're at the gym and shoot, it's the music's going, but you have one of these stations on and that's all they're talking about. And you're thinking they're showing these highlights and stuff.
And I'm thinking I would be a real dumb ass if we let this guy go. So, um, But it was good. It was a couple hours, but it was more of a formality and making sure that everybody felt good about the direction we're going. And I will say it was a great meeting and I felt that it was some uncomfortable weeks, but where it's at, I think we're better as a result of it. I know I at least feel that way.
