Transcript
00:00 >> Perfect way to go out with a win in 153 yards?
00:02 >> No, I'm just saying in the moment, it's been a great eight years.
00:06 I've grown a lot has happened over these eight years.
00:10 Turning 30 in year eight and I have my daughter,
00:16 over these eight years and as a person and a player,
00:21 great teammates, great coaches, fans have been there through it all.
00:26 So it was just a thank you to them.
00:29 I know how worried it probably got when I was pushing a little bit.
00:33 But it's just a thank you speech to show them the chance.
00:35 >> But there's a spur of the moment deal, you thought about doing that and
00:37 how do you think it went off?
00:39 >> Well, it was totally worth it in the end.
00:40 They wanted me to say something, I'm gonna try and
00:43 sort of legit from the heart and off the top, kind of freestyle a little bit.
00:48 I thought they'd do it, I felt like it.
00:50 >> Did it feel like a little bit of a throwback day?
00:53 You got back to yourself and with Ryan back there and
00:57 the style of the game was a lot like the best of what you guys have done together.
01:02 >> Yeah, it was definitely fun.
01:03 I feel like the old days again, definitely a great way to go out,
01:09 especially as a division opponent.
01:12 An opponent that I grew down the street, watching and
01:14 looking at and following as a kid growing up.
01:20 So it was kind of all full circle, which is great to be able to finish with the win and
01:26 >> How much did you feel like your teammates out there fighting?
