00:00 Organization, but huge day for Emily Baker, and we're just extremely excited.
00:07 Both parties listening up a year ago,
00:11 combine started around the combine.
00:14 Todd hit me up with a text or call or come down to my office.
00:19 These twice a day, asking me where we can make.
00:22 So well, there's some rules here.
00:25 We'll do the best we can, he had a lot of confidence and
00:30 we developed a relationship with him when he was with the Jets in the 2018 draft.
00:35 We had Baker as our number one quarterback in that draft,
00:40 in our rankings and so we have a lot of confidence in him.
00:44 But nobody had more confidence than Baker.
00:45 And it was about a year ago today, I don't know exactly to the day when I called him
00:50 to congratulate him, you could feel the confidence that he was ready to come in
00:55 here and take advantage of the situation.
00:58 He had us circle as the best place to go.
01:01 We had him circled as the best player to come and follow the legend, Tom Brady.
01:08 And not many, not many quarterbacks would have the confidence to do that.
01:11 But Baker certainly did.
01:13 Love his leadership, love his ability on the field, but his leadership,
01:16 his ability to rally the team, the city, the fan base, has been surreal.
01:23 So put that on a new year date.
