00:00plans. Cutting edge. He's going to research this year.
00:04He's been this year in the cave.
00:08Trying to determine what's effective, what's ineffective, and
00:12develop a new cutting edge scheme.
00:16He didn't exactly say new, but he said cutting edge. That implies
00:20new. Just like to me, projection
00:23implies work versus predictions. Okay. Alright.
00:28He would be an interesting test case as one of these
00:31ex-coaches to go into broadcasting and then just park there.
00:36Like Jimmy Johnson, Bill Cower,
00:39the two examples I think of first, both won
00:43Super Bowls. They had reached the top.
00:48It's still incredible to me for as
00:51especially Cower, for as coaches, as they're always
00:55described as these type A personalities
00:57that just can't, they're there all
00:59night and day. And
01:01to be able to sort of
01:03cut that cord and then
01:05go into yuck yucks
01:07and laugh at unfunny things for a living
01:09for money, for more money, probably
01:12is just
01:14getting satisfaction
01:16fine. A lot of people
01:17like myself maybe would just be like, okay
01:19I'm going to pay me this.
01:20Right. But for a guy like that
01:24to just veer into that lifestyle
01:27and clean break and never go back into coaching
01:31was even ever almost rumored to go back.
01:33We talked about him for a minute, like maybe the
01:35Bills could get him. But he never went back.
01:37And Jimmy Johnson never went back. He's still on his
01:40boat. Like he had
01:42two Super Bowl rings, national
01:44championship in college. Like maybe he just
01:46was like, there's nothing else for me to do there
01:48and I like my boat. Yeah. And I'll laugh
01:50at Howie Long
01:5120 times a year. I don't
01:54care. He's not funny ever. I like
01:56Howie Long. I shouldn't have picked on him.
01:58Strahan. Just like, I'll do that.
02:00I'll pretend, you're joking, I'll pretend Terry Bradshaw
02:02is funny for 20 Sundays. I don't know
02:04how
02:06I have sounded about
02:08this when it's come up other times.
02:10It's something we've talked about in the past.
02:13Those guys
02:14leaving that and going there
02:16and still
02:18I assume like being happy, satisfied,
02:21fulfilled, whatever it is you might be looking
02:23to do in a second
02:25act in your professional
02:27life, which is kind of what that is.
02:30Right. I mean, you were coaching football.
02:31You got to the pinnacle. You won the Super Bowl.
02:34All right. What now?
02:36And
02:38I may
02:39it's possible that I
02:40was sort of snobby and looking
02:43down on it at some other point
02:45but I have
02:46I have grown
02:47if that's right. I'm not
02:49sure that it is, but I really admire
02:51someone who can be
02:53wired
02:55the way I think you
02:56have to be wired
02:58to be successful
02:59in the coaching field
03:01to not
03:03have it dominate your life.
03:05Like to be able to adjust
03:07to
03:07you know what?
03:09I like being around
03:11my, for Cowher, I think the wife
03:13and his wife
03:13there was an illness in there too
03:16but like
03:16Kay
03:17I'm
03:18I'm there for
03:19we have a good life
03:20she likes me being around
03:22I like being around
03:23the kids are in
03:24college
03:24I go visit
03:25whatever it is
03:26like you're freed up
03:28and
03:28that you can find
03:30that you don't need
03:31the adrenaline
03:32that comes with the
03:34working the 20 hour days
03:36or whatever
03:36and sleeping in the office
03:38and all that
03:38just the rush of
03:40preparing
03:41and then
03:4260 minutes on Sunday
03:44or 3 hours on Sunday
03:46like
03:46did I do a good job
03:48or not?
03:49And then
03:50doing it all again
03:51like there
03:51to be able to
03:53detach from that
03:54and not
03:56I don't know
03:58miss it so badly
03:59that you need to go back
04:00I think is
04:01it's really
04:02that is some
04:03personal development
04:05like that
04:05I'm impressed by
04:07at you know
04:08middle age
04:08these guys
04:10figured out
04:11how to change that
04:13and so
04:13because yeah
04:14I mean
04:14on one hand
04:15someone like me
04:17who's not
04:17driven to that degree
04:19like
04:20yeah
04:21the boat
04:22idiot
04:23just stay on the boat
04:25you got
04:25you got all the money
04:27you need
04:28you're fine
04:29but
04:30you know
04:31you
04:32you miss
04:33the
04:34you know
04:34something inside you
04:35might still be craving
04:38that routine
04:39the tension
04:40the pressure
04:41like all of it
04:42all of it
04:43it's life on the high wire
04:46and to be able to adjust
04:49well enough
04:49that
04:50you
04:50you're seemingly
04:52not
04:52you're not ever
04:53you never even tried it again
04:54maybe you
04:56talked to a team or two
04:58a time or two
04:59but
04:59you never got all the way back in
05:01and I think there's
05:02it's admirable
05:03I think
05:03from a personal
05:05just evolution
05:06standpoint
05:07fair
05:08I wouldn't want to judge
05:10these guys individually
05:11it's more just for me
05:12a stereotype
05:12and you know
05:13cowers
05:14persona
05:15so
05:16hard
05:17edged
05:17and like
05:18how do you end up in
05:20the CBS studio
05:21and just like
05:22like it
05:23so
05:23no disrespect to anything
05:25you said
05:25I feel like you know
05:27maybe it's just like
05:28okay well this is easier
05:29maybe that's not how he
05:31I mean he would never
05:32say it that way
05:33it is easier
05:34it's not hard at all
05:36he's somebody that
05:37every time he's cued to talk
05:38I'll tell you exactly
05:39what he's going to say
05:40you know it's always the same
05:41obvious sort of
05:43points
05:44and like
05:45there's no really
05:45any added value for me
05:46watching
05:47I don't
05:48that's why I don't watch it
05:48because it's like
05:49those guys sort of
05:50just throw the ball around
05:52and you know
05:52what it's going to be
05:53and it's mostly meaningless
05:55it's just amazing
05:55that you could
05:57people
05:58as already
05:59I've already said it
05:59and you've said it too
06:00like that
06:01that personality type
06:02that I think you need
06:04the drive that you need
06:05to be able to succeed
06:07to be able to
06:08even make it to that level
06:09as a coach
06:10where does that go
06:13maybe you take up
06:14wood splitting
06:15or something
06:15maybe you take up
06:16some other
06:17hobby that fulfills
06:19that
06:20competitive streak
06:21or just what
06:22I just
06:22I don't know
06:23like McDermott
06:24McDermott
06:25I'll say this
06:26and then the next thing
06:27he doesn't
06:29outwardly have
06:30the kind of personality
06:31he can be funny
06:31like he can be dry
06:32and funny
06:33but he doesn't
06:34sort of have
06:34that obvious
06:36drawing power
06:37if you will
06:37as a
06:39as a football
06:39celebrity
06:40I don't think
06:41he's fitting right in
06:42on a studio show
06:44and be like
06:45oh Sean McDermott's
06:46on there
06:46but who knows
06:47like
06:48yeah
06:48I want
06:49he's somebody
06:50that probably
06:51would qualify
06:51to get a chance
06:52at it
06:52if he wanted
06:53to do it
06:53and maybe
06:55he would just
06:56sort of show
06:56a little bit
06:57more of himself
06:58and
07:00a few one-liners
07:01can get you
07:01pretty far
07:02and then
07:02then you're doing
07:03that
07:03he sounds like
07:04he has his mind
07:05somewhere else
07:06yeah
07:06getting back
07:07on the sideline
07:08I mean today
07:08I suspected it
07:11around the time
07:11of the draft
07:12when he
07:13you know
07:14you could have
07:14also perceived
07:15him dropping
07:16in on NFL
07:17Network
07:17and ESPN
07:18I mean he made
07:19the rounds
07:19around draft time
07:21that you could
07:23have perceived
07:23that as him
07:24testing the media
07:25waters
