00:00I haven't, I haven't quite gotten that extreme. You know, I like to think I take pretty good care

00:05of myself and, you know, eat pretty healthy, but I will have meat and, you know, I'll bread once

00:12in a while and stuff, you know, like I eat pretty clean, but I don't think I've taken it to that

00:16extreme. As a quarterback, you look at someone like Tom, who's what, like 44, about to be 44.

00:22He's in the best shape of his life, arguably playing some of the best football of his life.

00:25Like, how do you as another quarterback, like look at him and go like, oh my God, wow. Like,

00:30how is he doing this? Do you guys? Yeah, it's amazing. You know, it really is. He, he's

00:37unbelievably competitive. He's unbelievably disciplined. That part of it's inspirational

00:43to all of us. You know, you watch him at 44 playing, you know, great football, you know,

00:51and, and so you, you, you, you like to think that, uh, you know, if, if you are committed

00:57in, in some of the same ways that he is, you can do it for a long time. And I think that

01:01creates inspiration for younger guys.

01:04Do you guys like, you know, other quarterbacks, do you guys ever like text each other after

01:09a game? Maybe like you're watching his game or somebody else's game or whatever being like,

01:13bro, that, that play was amazing. Like sometimes you'll see athletes tweet or whatever, but like,

01:17do you guys? Yeah. Yeah. You definitely, there's, it's a unique fraternity of, of guys that,

01:25um, you know, are, are in that same position and there's not many. And so it is cool. Once in a

01:32while, you pick up your phone after a game, you have a text message, like you said, from Tom or,

01:37uh, you know, just around the league could be anybody. Uh, but you have a text message from

01:42those guys. It's cool. And I always, you know, try and do the same, you know, especially when guys

01:46accomplish something, uh, you know, that you let them know you respect what they've done and,

01:52uh, how they've gone about it.
