You know, it fits sometimes, you know. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad. How you doing? Will Shills.

GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
That's a nice-looking ring, Billy. I would say 30, 30% of the time.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
You know, special occasions or just in case I walk into the bedroom, I pick it up and put it on and then put it back down.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
No, actually, I've had it stolen once, though.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
What happened? Yeah, man, we were in Colorado, and we were visiting my son, and they actually broke into the car and stole it out of the car.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
Well, I wasn't really thinking. I just gave a speech and all this other stuff, so I had my high school and all that other stuff, and wasn't really thinking out there, so it happened.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
Well, we're talking about Gear Up for Cancer. So basically we're trying to let everybody know once you reach the age of 45, you need to have your colonoscopy, which is one thing that most people don't want to talk about. But it is part of the cancer thing that you can actually screen for. and that you can survive from.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
And I think most people don't realize it's just getting tested to find out what's going on, and that makes a big difference. And I think that's where we're talking about. Gear up for it. Make sure that once you're 45 or above, get your test done so that you know that you can, you know, take care of your life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
I know there's a lot of things out there, but this is one that I think is very important for our community.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
I do. I have fun watching it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
It's really cool. And because I'm closer to it, I guess, it's a lot more fun because I can yell at the TV and look at it and say.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
Because you personally know some of the guys. And you're going, man, what did you do that for?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
If you love a game and love a sport, of course you are. I mean, that's part of it. I mean, that's what. the ebb and flow of it, or you say, hey, I'm going to change the mojo, so I'm going to move from the kitchen to the living room.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
Oh, there's only so much you can change on that. Got a new coach, which is awesome.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
No, I don't. You know, all of that stuff I don't yell at. It's more or less watching technique. I watched certain things and I was like, oh man, how did you miss, you know, hey, how did you not see that guy doing this? Or how did you not see that rotation?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
No, it's just because that's how I watch the game.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
And, you know, I'm watching my guards and my tackles and I'm going, ooh, that's a bad set. Oh, you didn't use your hands or this kind of stuff. You know, how do you recover?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
There are certain things you can't control.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
And that's the one thing about it. It's not like he's, hey, begging for it or what have you. I mean, you could make anything spin the way you want to say it spin.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
And you're looking at it and everybody's going, oh, well, he was asking the ref to let him know when he was near. I was like, no, he wasn't talking about the guy. He's talking about his offensive tackle.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
You know, it's just – and some people are knowledge-based.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
It's understanding. And, yeah, there are some penalties that you look at and be like, ooh, yeah, that could have went either way. And I think when you're winning, it makes it harder. And I think that's the whole thing because it used to be us thinking about the Patriots.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
Yeah.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
Yeah, penalty is a penalty. And you look at it and you're going, ooh, yeah, I wouldn't have called that. I would have did this. And, you know, we're just as judgmental on our own teams. If you're really a player, you're just as judgmental on your own team as you are on others.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
You know, and you're looking like, oh, man, he got away with that. Or this person did this or this, that, and the other. Or you go, yeah, we did get a call.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
There's a few of them. John Randall was the main one. He's crazy, that guy. Oh, man, he would give me fits all the time. He's one of those guys you'd be like, I've got to face him this week. Let me – I got to do some extra work. I got to do some extra studying. I got to figure all that good stuff out. But he was that guy that basically would give me fits.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
And my rookie year is when we first sort of met.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
And we're at training camp. And he shows up and he's going, hey, man, he's talking back and forth of, hey, what's going on? And he's doing his little arm thing and all of that good stuff. So it was fun to just sit there. And I'm sitting there as a rookie going. I've got to block this? This is what's going to happen? I was like, oh, my goodness. This is going to be crazy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
And so on that line, they had three Hall of Famers.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
So we got indoctrinated by them as our rookie year. But it was good.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
But it set the tone for where I wanted to be for the rest of my career.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
Well, I think first and foremost... He wasn't trying to discount the importance of the award.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
And I get that, but when you walk your way down that path and you look at it and you see how many people have actually made it to the Super Bowl... How are you going to be that person that's going to win the MVP if you can't get there?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
And that makes it hard, where Walter Payton Man of the Year is about your community service, what you've done and how you build it, and how you bring your teammates and your community together. So there's a difference within that parameter. So you might not win that MVP during the year, but for your community, you're the MVP, man.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
You've actually done enough work to put in to where somebody noticed that you've done something enough and be able to make it happen and change somebody's life.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
I'd just say, hey, you know, you just got to understand where you're coming from. Right. And we know that, hey, there's only so many teams that's going to get to the Super Bowl and be MVP. It would be nice. It would be nice to have a Super Bowl ring or whatever that is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
I said, but there's only one ring given out to one team.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
where the Walter Payton Man of the Year, there's only one person that actually receives that every year, and it's for the work you did in your community. So I think both of them are valuable, but I think for me, I'm happy with the one I got. I wish I would have gotten the other one, but you can only get what you can take.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
No.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
Well, we're here for the NFL alumni. And actually, it's NFL A gear up backslash cancer so that you guys can actually go and get your screening. And we're actually coming to. coming to here actually in the next couple of months and doing major screenings.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
So we have four different places that we're doing it right now, but we're also going to take the show on the road so that everybody can get the screenings done so that they can make sure that they're as healthy as they can be to live as long as you can.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
It's one of those things that when you're packing stuff up and you got in bags and everything else, it just sort of gets your brain and you're like, hey, I'm going to go for a walk over here across the thing and I'm going to wear it across, you know, as I go up this mountain and then come back down, you know. You would never imagine like, oh, I forgot something in there. And I was like, yep, I did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
It never showed up again, so I don't think they got too much for it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
GBF- Super Week: Cam Jordan, Matthew Berry, Will Shields, NY Jets, Warrick Dunn
I appreciate it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
